Below you will find some information to help you better understand the placement, use, and management of "cookies" used by ionna.ro. You’ll also find a few helpful links on this topic. If you need more details beyond what's in this section, feel free to contact us at info@ionna.ro.
This website uses both its own cookies and third-party cookies to provide visitors with a better browsing experience and services tailored to their individual needs and interests.
Cookies were created to facilitate access to and delivery of the multiple services that users enjoy online, such as:
What is a “cookie”?
An "Internet Cookie" (also known as a "browser cookie" or "HTTP cookie") is a small file made up of letters and numbers that is stored on a user’s computer, mobile device, or other internet-enabled device.
Cookies are installed at the request of a web server through a browser (e.g., Internet Explorer, Chrome) and are completely passive – they do not contain software, viruses, or spyware and cannot access information from the user’s hard drive.
A cookie consists of two parts: its name and value. Only the web server that placed the cookie can access it again when the user returns to the associated website.
Cookies do not request personal information and in most cases do not personally identify users.
There are two main categories of cookies:
Why are cookies used?
Cookies create a connection between a browser and a web server, allowing stored data to be reused during future visits. They ensure smoother user experiences and support features like privacy preferences, language settings, shopping carts, and personalized ads.
How long do cookies last?
The duration varies based on purpose. Some are used only during a session, while others are retained and reused on return visits. All can be deleted at any time via browser settings.
What are third-party cookies?
Some site content may be delivered through third-party services (e.g., ads, videos), which place cookies not managed by the site owner. These third parties must also comply with legal and privacy requirements.
How does this site use cookies?
Performance cookies – remember user preferences for future visits.
Visitor analytics cookies – determine whether a visitor is new or returning. Used only for statistics unless the user is registered, in which case personal data (e.g., email, username) may be linked, according to the privacy policy and law.
Geo-targeting cookies – determine the user’s country for localizing content. Anonymous and used only for content targeting.
Registration cookies – track user logins and link comments to user accounts. These cookies are deleted when the browser or device is closed unless “keep me logged in” is selected.
Advertising cookies – track ad views and help serve relevant ads. Some are from third parties and do not store personal data but rather ad interaction data.
Other third-party cookies – may be placed by social media or other tools integrated into the site. These are outside of the site’s direct control.
What kind of data is stored in cookies?
Cookies store small text files with browser-identifying information, including preferences and login settings (e.g., language, cart items, online banking security).
Why are cookies important for the internet?
They ensure a smooth and personalized web experience. Disabling cookies may limit site functionality. You will still receive ads, but they won't be tailored to your preferences.
Common uses of cookies (no login required):
Security and privacy concerns:
Cookies are NOT viruses! They are plain text and cannot execute or replicate. However, they can be used for spyware if not managed properly. Anti-spyware tools often flag cookies during scans.
Browsers include privacy settings to control cookie behavior, lifespan, and deletion. Users should be aware that unencrypted connections (e.g., unsecured Wi-Fi) can expose cookie data to unauthorized access.
Other risks: Servers with improper settings may allow attackers to intercept or misuse cookies. Always choose secure browsing methods.
