Cookie and similar technology usage policy
This policy refers to cookies and similar technologies used on websites operated by enotecasocial.ro. Cookies are used for the following purposes:

What are cookies?
Cookies are text fragments placed on your computer by the websites you visit. This automatic data storage technology is very widespread and is used to collect information such as browser type and operating system, the source page, the name of the domain from which the visitor connected to the enotecasocial.ro website, etc., in order to understand how visitors use this website. "Cookies" help us adapt the content of the website according to your needs.
What are cookies used for?
We use cookies to improve the use and functionality of our websites and to better understand how visitors use these websites, as well as the services offered by them. Storing cookies on your computer provides us with an easy and convenient way to personalize or improve your experience on our websites and to make your next visit more enjoyable. We do not use cookies to collect personal information, such as your name, however, we may link the information contained in a cookie to your personal information collected through other means (for example, registration forms).
What is the lifespan of a cookie?
Cookies are managed by web servers. The lifespan of a cookie can vary significantly, depending on the purpose for which it is placed. Some cookies are used exclusively for a single session (session cookies) and are no longer retained once the user has left the website, while some cookies are retained and reused each time the user returns to that website (persistent cookies). However, cookies can be deleted by a user at any time through their browser settings.
Security and privacy issues
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-execute. Consequently, they cannot duplicate or replicate on other networks to run or replicate themselves again. Since they cannot perform these functions, they cannot be considered viruses. Cookies can still be used for negative purposes. Because they store information about the preferences and browsing history of users, both on a specific site and on several other sites, cookies can be used as a form of Spyware. Many anti-spyware products are aware of this fact and constantly mark cookies for deletion as part of their anti-virus/anti-spyware removal/scanning procedures. Generally, 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.
How are cookies used by this site?
A visit to this site may place the following types of cookies:
strictly necessary cookies for the functioning of the site
analysis cookies
Strictly necessary cookies and/or similar technologies are essential for the proper functioning of the site, being set on your device when accessing the site or following actions performed on the site, as the case may be. You can set your browser to block cookies, but in this case certain sections of the site will not function correctly. Cookies or similar technologies themselves do not require personal information to be used and, in many cases, do not personally identify internet users. However, there are situations when personal data may be collected through the use of cookies to facilitate certain functionalities for the user or to provide the user with an experience more adapted to his preferences. Such data is encrypted in a way that makes it impossible for unauthorized persons to access them.
Blocking cookies
Disabling and refusing to accept cookies can make certain sites impractical or difficult to visit and use. It is possible to set your browser to no longer accept these cookies or to set your browser to accept cookies from a specific site. But, for example, if a visitor is not registered using cookies, they will not be able to leave comments. All modern browsers offer the ability to change cookie settings. These settings are usually found in the Options/Settings menu or the Preferences/Favorites menu of the browser. Most browsers are set to accept cookies by default, but you can change the settings to block some or all cookies.
Why are cookies important to the Internet?
Cookies are central to the efficient functioning of the Internet, helping to generate a friendly browsing experience adapted to the preferences and interests of each user. Refusing or disabling cookies may make some sites unusable. Examples of important uses of cookies (which do not require a user to authenticate through an account):
Content and services tailored to user preferences – categories of news, weather, sports, maps, public and government services, entertainment sites and travel services.
Offers tailored to users' interests - remembering passwords, language preferences (e.g. displaying search results in Romanian).
Retaining child protection filters regarding Internet content (family mode options, safe search functions).
Measurement, optimization and analytics features - such as confirming a certain level of traffic on a website, what type of content is viewed and how a user reaches a website (e.g. through search engines, directly, from other websites). Websites perform these analyses of their use to improve the sites for the benefit of users.
Security and privacy issues
Browsers generally have integrated privacy settings that provide different levels of cookie acceptance, validity period and automatic deletion after the user has visited a particular site. Other security issues related to cookies:
Customize your browser settings regarding cookies to reflect a comfortable level for you.
If you are the only person using the computer, you can set, if you wish, long expiration dates for storing browsing history and personal access data.
If you share access to the computer, you can consider setting your browser to delete individual browsing data each time you close the browser. This is an option to access sites that place cookies and delete any visit information when you close the browsing session.
Install and update your antispyware applications regularly.
Many spyware detection and prevention applications include detection of attacks on websites. Thus, they prevent the browser from accessing websites that could exploit browser vulnerabilities or download dangerous software.
