Cookies Notice
Wolf Oil uses cookies on this Website.
The purpose of this Cookies Notice is to give You a better understanding of how cookies work and to provide You with clear information about the cookies that we use and Your choices when it comes to these technologies.
In case of any discrepancy between this language and the English language, the English language will prevail.
I. What are cookies?
Cookies are small data files, normally consisting of letters and numbers, that are stored on Your device (computer, telephone, tablet, etc.) when You visit this Website. They can be used to collect information about You.
II. What kind of cookies exist?
In general, cookies can be classified in three different ways: by origin, by lifetime, by purpose.
Cookies can be classified depending on the organisation managing them, as follows:
- First-party cookies are generated and placed on the visitor’s device directly by the website that is visited. Their primary function is to support a positive user experience. The data collected by these cookies are usually only available to the website owner.
- Third-party cookies are created and placed by third parties other than the website that is visited. Third-party cookies are not managed by the website owner, but by another organisation that handles data obtained from the cookies.
Cookies may also be separate in two categories in relation to the period for which they are stored:
- Session cookies are temporary and expire as soon as the browser closes or at the end of the visit (session). They are normally used to store information which only needs to be kept while the visitor accesses a website.
- Persistent cookies are placed on the visitor’s device for a longer time period, which may be from a few minutes to several years. They remain valid until their set expiry date, unless manually deleted by the visitor before such expiry date. They are often used to remember the visitor’s preferences between browsing sessions.
Cookies can also be classified depending on their purpose:
- Strictly necessary (technical) cookies help make a website usable by enabling basic functions such as page navigation or access to secure areas of the website. They are necessary for the proper functioning of the website and cannot be refused.
- Preference (functional) cookies allow a website to personalize the browsing experience by remembering preference settings that change the way the website behaves or displays, such as the visitor’s chosen language or the region in which it is located. Unlike necessary cookies, these cookies support additional functionality that enhances the website. Not accepting these cookies may cause slow website performance or poorly adapted recommendations.
- Analytical (performance) cookies allow the website owner to recognize and count the number of visitors and to track and analyse their interactions with the website (such as the pages visited and the links used). The information collected is used for statistical purposes only, with the aim of introducing improvements to the website.
- Marketing (targeting) cookies enable the website owner to track visitors’ activity on the website, in order to display advertisements that are meaningful and attractive to them. These cookies, unlike statistical cookies, are used to support online marketing and help advertisers, for example, to deliver more relevant ads. They are persistent cookies and almost always from third parties.
