What is a cookie?

Cookies are small text files that are stored in your desktop computer, laptop or mobile device when you visit any website. Furthermore, every time you visit a page again, your web browser sends the information back to the site, or any other site that happens to recognise it. Having cookies is extremely beneficial, as they can be used for different reasons, such as improving the content of the website, allowing you to browse more efficiently between different pages and remembering your preferences. As a result, your interaction with the website becomes easier and the results more accurate. Cookies are also used for publicity purposes, like making sure that the advertising you encounter online is relevant to your tastes and interests.

Cookie installation and storage

Cookies may be set by the website you are visiting (‘first party cookies’) or they may be set by other websites that run content on the page you are viewing (‘third party cookies’). They may be installed either while the user is visiting the web, or by repeated visits. The following terms are used to describe cookie storage:

  • Session cookies: they allow us to monitor the users’ actions during a browser session. Session cookies are stored in memory and never written to disk. When the browser closes, the cookie is permanently lost from this point on.
  • Persistent cookies: these cookies stay in your device during the specified time of each cookie. They will be activated each time you visit the web where the particular cookie was originally created.

  • Personalised: these cookies enable the user to access our website with certain predefined general features, such as the language, the browser or the geographical location from where the service is accessed thus allowing us to offer you a better, more personalised service.
  • Analytical: these cookies collect information about how visitors and users use our websites, for example, the pages they visit more often or if they receive error messages.

  • Advertising: these cookies are used to deliver adverts more relevant to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement as well as help measure the effectiveness of the advertising campaign. They are usually placed by advertising networks with the website operators’ permission. They remember that you have visited a website and this information is shared with other organisations such as advertisers. Quite often targeting or advertising cookies will be linked to site functionality provided by the other organisation.

Which cookies do we use?

The latter usually have a duration of about six months to two years.

Cookie configuration

It is possible to configure, administrate and disable cookies in many different ways. Nonetheless, you must bear in mind that the moment you erase or disable them, the webs you visit thereafter may cease to function correctly or work as efficiently. Most websites offer general information about cookies and which ones you have. They allow you to erase cookies (individually or all at once) and block them either from every web or just individual webs. You can also disable third-party publicity cookies separately.
