We use the term "cookies" to refer to cookies and similar technologies through which information may be collected automatically.
A "cookie" (also known as a "browser cookie", "internet cookie" or "HTTP cookie") is a small file, made up of letters and numbers, that will be stored on a user's computer, mobile terminal or other equipment through which the internet is accessed.
Cookies are installed by a request issued by a web server to an internet browser (e.g. Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome). Once installed, cookies have a fixed lifespan, remaining "passive", meaning they do not contain software, viruses or spyware and will not access information on the hard drive of the user on whose device they were installed.
Cookies play an important role in facilitating access and delivery of services on a website (remembering user preferences, retaining account registration data, providing statistics on how different functions of a site are used, etc.).
The lifespan of cookies can vary significantly, depending on the purpose for which they are placed. There are the following categories of cookies which also determine their lifespan:
Session cookies – A „session cookie” is a cookie that is automatically deleted when the user closes their browser.
Persistent or fixed cookies – A „persistent” or „fixed” cookie is a cookie that remains stored on the user's terminal until it reaches a certain expiration date (which may be in a few minutes, days or a few years in the future) or until it is deleted by the user at any time via the browser settings.
Cookies differ depending on the web domain that places them.
As a rule, cookies are placed directly by the visited website, in which case these cookies are called original or own cookies ("first party cookies").
Certain sections of content on the site may be provided through third parties, in which case these cookies are referred to as third-party cookies.

B. Profiling cookies
Profiling cookies may include:
Preference cookies: they allow a website to remember information that changes depending on how the website behaves or looks, such as the preferred language or the region the user is in.

Retargeting cookies: these are used to serve advertisements regarding products that are similar to those in which the user expresses interest (e.g. displaying pages regarding products visited on a website when browsing affiliated websites) or measuring the effectiveness of marketing campaigns.
Analysis cookies: they record the user's choices and activity on the website to perform statistical analysis, by tracking preferences and browsing behavior, and to serve personalized advertisements.

Based on the feedback transmitted through cookies regarding how this website is used, KODING TECHNOLOGY SRL may adopt measures to make this Site more efficient and accessible to users.
Necessary cookies
We use certain cookies that we need to include in the Site to enable basic functions, such as page navigation and access to secure areas of the Site. The Site cannot function properly without these cookies. These types of cookies do not require user consent and are enabled automatically.
Statistics cookies
We use these cookies exclusively for internal research, with the aim of improving the service we offer to all our users. They evaluate how an anonymous user interacts with our Site (the data collected does not allow the identification of the person). Also, these data are not used for other purposes. Anonymized statistics may be shared with contractors working on marketing and communication projects, under the terms of a contractual agreement with our company. The user is free to refuse this type of cookies, through the cookie banner.
We use the above cookies taking into account the options expressed by each user. For this reason, when our Site is accessed, a special banner is displayed. After expressing the option, the cookie banner will disappear. We will track the option/consent expressed (if applicable) through a specific (and necessary) technical cookie. As a consequence, the cookie banner will no longer be displayed when the user visits the Site again. In case the user decides to delete some cookies with technical functionalities, we will lose track of the options/consent expressed and, as such, the cookie banner will be presented again on the next visit to the Site.
The visitor may decide at any time, at his/her own discretion, to block the settings of profiling cookies or to withdraw his/her previously expressed consent, without this affecting the ability to visit the Site and benefit from the relevant content.
Disabling and refusing to receive cookies may make this Site difficult to visit, resulting in limitations on its usability.
