This website may use both its own and third-party cookies to provide visitors with a much better browsing experience and services tailored to each person's needs and interests.
Because we respect your right to privacy, you can choose to block certain types of cookies from this website.
Cookies play an important role in facilitating access and delivery of the multiple services that the user enjoys on the internet, such as:
Personalizing certain settings such as: the language in which a site is viewed, the currency in which certain prices or rates are expressed, keeping options for various products (measurements, other details, etc.) in the shopping cart (and memorizing these options), saving certain preferences for future reuse.
Cookies provide website owners with valuable feedback on how their sites are used by users, so that they can make them even more efficient and more easily accessible.
They allow multimedia or other applications from other sites to be included in a particular site to create a more valuable, useful and enjoyable browsing experience.
They improve the effectiveness of online advertising.
What is a Cookie?
A Cookie is a small file, consisting of letters and numbers, that will be stored on a user's computer, mobile terminal or other equipment from which the Internet is accessed.
The cookie is installed by request issued by a web server to a browser (e.g. Chrome, Firefox) and is completely "passive" (it does not contain software, viruses or spyware and cannot access information on the user's hard drive).
A cookie consists of 2 parts: the name and the content or value of the cookie. Furthermore, the duration of a cookie's existence is determined; technically, only the webserver that sent the cookie can access it again when a user returns to the website associated with that webserver.
Cookies themselves do not require personal information in order to be used and, in most cases, do not personally identify internet users.
There are 2 main categories of cookies:
Session cookies - these are stored temporarily in the web browser's cookie folder so that it remembers them until the user closes the browser window or logs out of the respective website.
Persistent cookies - These are stored on the hard drive of a computer or device (and generally depend on the preset lifespan of the cookie). Persistent cookies also include those placed by a website other than the one the user is currently visiting - known as 'third party cookies' - which can be used anonymously to remember a user's preferences.
What are the advantages of cookies?
A cookie contains information that connects a web browser (the user) to a specific web server (the website). If a browser accesses that web server again, it can read the information already stored and react accordingly. Cookies provide users with a pleasant browsing experience and support the efforts of many websites to provide convenient services to users: e.g. online privacy preferences, site language options, shopping carts or relevant advertising.
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 and 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.
What are third-party cookies?
Certain sections of content on some sites may be provided through third parties/providers (e.g. a video, an advertisement, a chat application, etc.). These third parties may also place cookies through 
website and are called “third party cookies” because they are not placed by the owner of the website in question. Third party providers must also comply with applicable law and the privacy policies of the website owner.
How cookies are used by this website
Cookies ensure a pleasant browsing experience for users and support our efforts to provide convenient services to users through functionalities such as 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, excluding the personal identification of the user.
A visit to this website may place the following types of cookies:
Essential cookies
Performance cookies
Social media and advertising cookies
Certain cookies, such as performance cookies or Social media and advertising cookies, may come from third parties.
Essential cookies
These cookies allow both saving preferences regarding other types of cookies used, and accessing the basic functionalities of this site.
They retain the user's preferences on this site, so that there is no need to set them each time you visit the site.
Registration cookies are generated when a user registers on this site, in order to later inform us whether they are registered or not. Our servers use these cookies to show us the account you are registered with and to provide you with an easier experience of interaction with the site.
Other cookies that we place to allow you to use the site optimally are cookies corresponding to the shopping cart and Favorites lists (with the role of saving information related to the products you have added to the cart or as Favorites), location cookies (used to determine your location based on IP, in order to pre-fill certain fields required for registration or placing orders), session cookies generated upon access and automatically deleted when closing the browser (necessary for the functioning of the HTTP protocol, completing certain forms, interacting with certain elements of the site, etc.), cookies that recognize the type of terminal used - desktop or mobile, cookies of chat applications that allow real-time discussions with the customer service.
Performance cookies
They include both cookies from traffic analysis services, as well as cookies placed by certain third-party services that offer complementary functionalities to the site.
Traffic analysis cookies allow the aggregate measurement of site traffic, identification of traffic sources, provide information about the most visited or least visited pages, as well as about how users interact with the site. The information listed is collected in an aggregated and implicitly completely anonymous manner. These cookies may come from third parties such as Web Analytics services (Ex: Google Analytics).
Social media and advertising cookies
They may be placed through the site by the social media or advertising services we use.
This type of cookies may be used by these services to determine a certain profile of visitors and to display relevant advertising messages on other sites you visit.
They may come from third parties such as advertising services (Ex: AdSense, AdWords), social media platforms (Ex: Facebook, X), etc.
Due to the way it is used, this site cannot access these cookies from third parties, just as third parties cannot access the cookies held by this site. For example, when you share an article using the social media button on this site, that social network will record your activity.
What type of information is stored and accessed through cookies?
Cookies store information in a small text file that allows a website to recognize a browser. The web server will recognize the browser until the cookie expires or is deleted. The cookie stores important information that improves the Internet browsing experience (e.g. keeping a user logged in to their user account; keeping products in the shopping cart; keeping products in the Favorites list).
Why are cookies important for the Internet?
Cookies are the centerpiece of 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 coo
cookies can make it difficult to use a site.
Refusing or disabling cookies does not mean that you will no longer receive online advertising - it only means that it will no longer be able to take into account your preferences and interests, as evidenced by your browsing behavior.
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 user interests - remembering passwords, language preferences (Ex: displaying search results in Romanian).
Remembering child protection filters regarding Internet content (family mode options, safe search functions).
Limiting the frequency of advertising - limiting the number of times an advertisement is displayed for a specific user on a site.
Providing more relevant advertising to the user.
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 arrives at a website (e.g. via search engines, directly, from other websites, etc.). Websites perform these analyses of their usage to improve the sites for the benefit of users.
Security and privacy issues
Cookies use plain text formats. They are not made up of pieces of code so they cannot be executed or self-run. Consequently, they cannot be duplicated or replicated on other networks to run or replicate again. Cookies can, however, be used for negative purposes. Because they store information about users' preferences and browsing history, both on a particular site and on multiple 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.
Browsers generally have built-in privacy settings that provide different levels of cookie acceptance, expiration period, and automatic deletion after the user has visited a particular site. Other security aspects related to cookies
Since identity protection is very valuable and represents the right of every internet user, it is advisable to know what potential problems cookies can create. Because through them information is constantly transmitted in both directions between the browser and the website, if an attacker or unauthorized person intervenes in the data transmission process, 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 incorrect cookie settings on servers. If a website does not require the browser to use only encrypted channels, attackers can use this vulnerability to trick browsers into sending information through unsecured channels. Attackers can then use the information to gain unauthorized access to certain sites. It is very important to be careful in choosing the most appropriate method of protecting personal information.
Tips for safe and responsible browsing based on cookies
Due to their flexibility and the fact that most of the most visited and largest sites use cookies, they are almost inevitable. Disabling cookies will not allow the user to access the most widespread and used sites including Youtube, Gmail, Facebook, Yahoo and others. Here are some tips that can ensure that you do not browse without worries with the help of cookies:
Customize your browser settings regarding cookies to reflect a comfortable level of security for you in the use of cookies.
If you don't mind cookies and you're the only person using your computer, you can set long expiration dates for storing your browsing history and personal access data.
If you share access to your computer, you can consider setting your browser to delete individual browsing data each time you close your browser. This is one way to access websites that place cookies and delete any browsing information when you close your browsing session.
Install antispyware applications and keep them updated regularly.
Many spyware detection and prevention applications include website attack detection. This prevents your browser from accessing websites that could exploit 
browser vulnerabilities or download dangerous software. Make sure you always have your browser updated. Many of the attacks based on cookies are carried out by exploiting the weaknesses of old versions of browsers.
Cookies are everywhere and cannot be avoided if you want to enjoy access to the most popular sites on the Internet. With a clear understanding of how they operate and the benefits they bring, you can take the necessary security measures so that you can browse the Internet with confidence.
How can I stop cookies?
It is possible to configure your browser so that these cookies are no longer accepted or you can configure your browser to accept cookies only from a specific site.
All modern browsers offer the possibility to configure cookie storage preferences. These settings are usually found in the “options” or “preferences” menu of your browser. To understand these settings, you can use the “help” option of your browser for more details.
