Cookies policy

We welcome you to www.ro-shop.ro and thank you for your interest in this Cookie Policy!

Our website uses cookies and similar technologies (for convenience, all of these are collectively referred to as “cookies”). In accordance with UK`s Data Protection Act (“DPA”) which implements the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) and of course the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulation (“PECR”), we inform you about the use of cookies on our website, which cookies we are using and how you can manage your consent to store cookies. For more information about how we protect your Personal Data, please contact us using the details provided below or refer to our Privacy Policy.

 

What exactly are cookies?

A cookie is a small simple file that is sent along with pages of our website and stored by your browser on the hard drive of your computer or other device. The information stored in it may be returned to our servers (or to the servers of the relevant third parties) on a subsequent visit. Doing so, Cookies transmit small amounts of data about your device to our web server and enable our website to recognize your computer, smartphone, or other device.

 

Depending on who you ask, cookies can be classed as third party and first party cookies (for example set by us as the website operator or by a third party providing a specific service which uses cookies) or how long a cookie remains stored. When classifying cookies according to their lifespan, we may refer to cookies as session cookies or persistent cookies:

 

  1. i) Session cookies

A session cookie is deleted when you close the website in question. A session cookie allows a website to recognise you while you browse the website, but the cookie is deleted when you log out or close the website in your browser.

 

  1. ii) Permanent cookies

A persistent cookie recognizes you again and again for a set period of time. It remains stored on your device or in your browser for this period (which can be minutes, days, or months) after you have logged out or closed the browser. Persistent cookies are used, for example, to store certain settings you have made on a website (such as your preferred language).

 

What types of cookies are there?

We can distinguish between 4 types of cookies:

 

  1. i) Essential or Necessary cookies

These cookies are essential or necessary to ensure that our website works properly and is secure so that you can navigate our website and use its features. Without these cookies, certain features of our website would not be available, and you would not be able to use certain services.

 

  1. ii) Functional cookies

Functional cookies allow a website to remember the options you have selected (including user ID, consents you have given and/or your preferred language), your username if applicable, and any custom settings you have made (e.g., font sizes) or personalization options you have selected when browsing.

 

iii) Analysis and performance cookies

Analysis and performance cookies are used to monitor and improve the function and service of a website. They can also help us track down problems you may encounter when using an online service. Analysis and performance cookies may be used to facilitate online surveys, record visitor numbers, and provide other website analytics metrics.

 

  1. iv) Advertising cookies

These cookies are also called targeting cookies. They are used to deliver customized advertising to the user. This can be very convenient, but also very annoying.

 

Why do we provide information about cookies?

The provision of information about our use of cookies is required and set out in the PECD. Accordingly, the use of functional, analysis and performance or advertising cookies require your consent and thus the legal basis for the collection of your Personal Data through analysis and performance cookies, is your consent.
