This Cookie Policy applies to all users of the sndweb.ro website - the following information aims to inform users of this website about the placement, use, and management of cookies by sndweb.ro in the context of users browsing this website.
Essentially, cookies represent a small amount of data that is transmitted between a sender and a receiver. A cookie is created and interpreted by the sender, while the receiver just stores it and sends it back if the sender requests it.
When you browse the internet, the sender is the server that hosts a website, and the receiver is the internet browser of the user visiting that site. Their purpose is to identify the user, verify their past activity on that site, and provide specific content based on this data.
When a user visits a site for the first time, the server stores a certain cookie in their internet browser. At all subsequent visits after this first visit, the server will request its cookie to read and load a specific site configuration that is most suitable for that user. You can see cookies as a label that servers apply to each user, reading them later to identify users.
This identification is extremely useful, especially on websites where real-time user data is critical. For example, when using an online store, you wouldn't be able to buy anything without the help of cookies. Stores wouldn't be able to identify and assign you a shopping cart without them because, each time you load a new page, the store would see you as a new user and create a new cart.
As such, cookies are widely used on the internet because they allow websites to be more powerful, providing dynamic and useful content for each user. In certain cases, websites cannot function without using cookies. Additionally, they allow websites to gather data about their users and the pages they visit. Like any other technology, however, they can be used for less ethical purposes. Therefore, it is good for everyone browsing the internet to know how they work and how they can be used.
