Use of cookies

We use cookie files for correct display of the contents and for convenient use of the website https://nevskayapalitra.com/. These are small files stored on your device. They help the website to remember information about you, e.g., the language you are using to look at the site and which pages you usually opened; this information will be useful for the next visit. Cookie files make looking at the website much more convenient.

General information about cookie files

Cookie files are small text files (letters and/or numbers) that allow the web server to store information about the client (users, Internet browser), which may be re-used during the website visit (session cookies) or later (permanent cookies). Cookie files are stored, based on the user’s preferences, by a separate browser on a specific device (computer, tablet, smartphone).

Cookie files do not register the users; no personal data or any identification data are stored. If you want to disconnect the cookie files use, you must configure your browser settings. You can configure deletion of cookie files or activate a notification to inform you when cookie files are saved on your device. In order to continue working without changing the cookie file storage settings, simply continue using the website.

Depending on their duration, cookie files are defined as session cookie files (temporary cookie files that are deleted automatically from the terminal after the end of the session and closure of the browser) and permanent cookie files (those that are stored in the terminal until the end of their operating period or are deleted by the user).

Cookie files are used for various purposes. They are primarily used to send messages and provide services requested by the user; in other words, they allow engaging and optimizing the running of the website, authenticating it and preventing misuse, tracking sessions and improving the user’s viewing experience, e.g., by keeping connections with reserved areas active while viewing website pages without the need for re-entering the user’s identifier and password, as well as by remembering specific information about the user (e.g., preferences, type of browser, and computer used). The information we collect using cookie files includes the IP address, device identification number, pages viewed, browser type, information about the browser search, operating system, Internet provider, click time marker, your reaction to an advertisement, relevant URL address, function apps used on the pages or actions taken.

The aforementioned cookie files are known as technical cookie files (their use does not require user consent), and without them, some of the mentioned operations cannot be performed or would be complicated and/or less secure.

On the other hand, if cookie files are used for other purposes such as behavioral analysis on the Internet and sending personalized promo-advertising messages (so-called profiling (analytical cookie files) or even simply to use the services offered by third parties to obtain collective information about the number of users and their methods of visiting the site (so-called analytical cookie files), it is necessary to obtain the user’s consent.

There are also functional cookie files.

These files are necessary to recognize you by a unique identifier without revealing your personal data when you re-enter our website. This allows us to personalize the website contents to your needs.

We can also use cookie files to remember your information to enter the system, thus you do not have to re-enter the user name and password every time (if you create a personal account on the website). In this case, the passwords will always be saved in coded form. These functional cookie files are not strictly required to run our website or app, but they add functionality for you as the user, making our website more user-friendly.

We try to use or permit the use of cookie files with a life cycle of no more than 5 years. Cookie files may exist longer only in exceptional cases, e.g., for security reasons, and only when this is absolutely necessary.

Other similar tracking technologies are used in addition to cookie files. They may include, for example, web beacons (also known as pixel tags, web bugs or gif files) that track URL addresses or software development devices (Software Development Kit, SDK). The web beacon is a microscopic image about 1 pixel in size, which enters your computer via an e-message in HTML format. We use these web beacons to obtain information about your device: e.g., device type, operating system, IP address, and time of website visit. Web beacons can also be used to deliver and read cookie files on your device. It is necessary to track URL addresses to find out the website from which the user accessed our website. SDK is a short code introduced into the apps that functions in the same way as cookie files and web beacons.

We will call all the technologies mentioned in this document taken together “cookie files”.

In order to find out more about how to work with cookie files or delete them, go to the site allaboutcookies.org and the section “Reference”/“Help” of your browser. By configuring the browser (e.g., Internet Explorer, Safari, Firefox, Chrome), you can choose which cookie files to accept and which to decline.
