Cookie-urile ne ajuta atat pe noi, ca sa iti oferim o experienta placuta de navigare, dar si pe tine pentru a putea avea acces la istoricul produselor si alte informatii.
This policy refers to cookies and web pages operated by S.C. PureTECH Solutions S.R.L., with its registered office in Ilfov, com. Chiajna, str. Rezervelor, nr. 64, bl. 1, ap. 101 (hereinafter referred to as ECOSOFT).
A cookie is a small file, made up of letters and numbers, that will be stored on the computer, mobile terminal or other equipment of a user from which the internet is accessed. The cookie is installed by a request issued by a web server to a browser (e.g. Internet Explorer, Chrome) and is completely "passive" (it does not contain software, viruses or spyware and cannot access information on the user's hard drive).
These files enable the recognition of the user's terminal and the presentation of content in a relevant way, tailored to the user's preferences. Cookies provide users with a pleasant browsing experience and support ECOSOFT's efforts to offer convenient services to users: e.g. – online privacy preferences, shopping cart or relevant advertising. They are also used in the preparation of anonymous aggregate statistics that help us understand how a user benefits from our web pages, allowing us to improve their structure and content, while excluding the personal identification of the user.
We use two types of Cookies: session and persistent. The former are temporary files that remain on the user's terminal until the session ends or the application (web browser) is closed. Persistent files remain on the user's terminal for a period set in the Cookie's parameters or until they are manually deleted by the user.
A visit to this site may place cookies for the purposes of: Site performance cookies, Visitor analytics cookies, Geotargeting cookies, Registration cookies, Advertising cookies, Advertising provider cookies
Cookies themselves do not require personal information to be used and, in most cases, do not personally identify internet users. Personal data collected through the use of Cookies may only be collected to facilitate certain functionalities for the user. Such data is encrypted in a way that makes it impossible for unauthorised persons to access it.
In general, an application used to access web pages allows cookies to be saved on the terminal by default. These settings can be changed so that the automatic management of cookies is blocked by the web browser, or the user is informed each time cookies are sent to their terminal. Detailed information about the possibilities and ways of managing cookies can be found in the settings area of the application (web browser). Limiting the use of cookies may affect certain functionalities of the web page.
Cookies are at the core of the efficient functioning of the Internet, helping to generate a user-friendly browsing experience tailored to the preferences and interests of each user. Refusing or disabling cookies may make some sites impossible to use.
Refusing or disabling cookies does not mean you will no longer receive online advertising – it just means that it will no longer be able to take into account your preferences and interests, as reflected by your browsing behaviour.
Examples of important uses of cookies (which do not require a user to authenticate via an account):
– Content and services tailored to user preferences – product and service categories.
– Offers tailored to users' interests – remembering passwords.
– Remembering child protection filters regarding content on the Internet (family mode options, safe search functions).
– Limiting the frequency of ad delivery – limiting the number of times an ad is shown to a specific user on a site.
– Providing more relevant advertising to the user.
– Measurement, optimisation and analytics features – such as confirming a certain level of traffic on a website, what type of content is viewed and how a user arrives at a website (e.g. via search engines, directly, from other websites, etc.). Websites conduct these usage analyses to improve their sites for the benefit of users.
Cookies are NOT viruses! They use plain text formats. They are not made up of pieces of code so they cannot be executed nor can they self-run. Consequently, they cannot duplicate or replicate themselves across other networks to run or replicate again. Because they cannot perform these functions, they cannot be considered viruses.
Cookies can, however, be used for negative purposes. Because they store information about users' preferences and browsing history, both on a specific site and across multiple other sites, cookies can be used as a form of spyware. Many anti-spyware products are aware of this and constantly flag cookies for deletion during anti-virus/anti-spyware deletion/scanning procedures.
In general, browsers have built-in privacy settings that provide different levels of cookie acceptance, validity period and automatic deletion after the user has visited a specific site.
Other security aspects related to cookies:
Because identity protection is very valuable and is the right of every internet user, it is advisable to know what potential problems cookies can create. Because they constantly transmit information in both directions between the browser and the website, if an attacker or unauthorised person intervenes in the data transmission path, the information contained in the cookie can be intercepted.
Although very rare, this can happen if the browser connects to the server using an unencrypted network (e.g. an unsecured WiFi network).
Other cookie-based attacks involve misconfigured cookie settings on servers. If a website does not require the browser to use only encrypted channels, attackers can exploit this vulnerability to trick browsers into sending information through unsecured channels. Attackers then use this information to gain unauthorised access to certain sites. It is very important to be careful in choosing the most appropriate method of protecting your personal information.
Due to their flexibility and the fact that most of the most visited and largest sites use cookies, they are almost unavoidable. Disabling cookies will prevent the user from accessing the most widespread and widely used sites, including Youtube, Gmail, Yahoo and others.
Here are some tips that can ensure you browse without worry, with the help of cookies:
– Customise your browser settings regarding cookies to reflect a comfort level of cookie security that suits you.
– If you don't mind cookies and you are the only person using the computer, you can set long expiry times for storing your browsing history and personal access data.
– If you share access to the computer, you may want to consider setting your browser to delete individual browsing data each time you close the browser. This is a way to access sites that place cookies and delete any visit information when the browsing session is closed.
– Install and constantly update anti-spyware applications.
Many spyware detection and prevention applications include detection of site attacks. This prevents the browser from accessing websites that could exploit browser vulnerabilities or download dangerous software.
Make sure your browser is always up to date. Many cookie-based attacks are carried out by exploiting weaknesses in older browser versions.
Cookies are everywhere and cannot be avoided if you want to enjoy access to the best and largest sites on the Internet – local or international. With a clear understanding of how they work and the benefits they bring, you can take the necessary security measures so that you can browse the internet with confidence.
Disabling and refusing to accept cookies may make certain sites impractical or difficult to visit and use. Also, refusing to accept cookies does not mean you will no longer receive/see online advertising.
It is possible to set your browser so that these cookies are no longer accepted, or you can set your browser to accept cookies from a specific site. But, for example, if you are not registered using cookies, you will not be able to leave comments.
All modern browsers offer the possibility to change cookie settings. These settings are usually found in the "options" or "preferences" menu of your browser.
To understand these settings, the following links may be useful, or you can use the "help" option of your browser for more details.
– Cookie settings in Internet Explorer
– Cookie settings in Firefox
– Cookie settings in Chrome
– Cookie settings in Safari
