Other security aspects related to cookies

 

Because identity protection is very important and it represents the right of every Internet user, it is recommended to be aware of the potential problems that the cookies might create. Cookies are not dangerous, but because they transmit constant information in both ways between the browser and the Website, if an attacker or unauthorised person interferes with the data transmission path, cookie information can be intercepted. Although rare, this can happen if the browser is connecting to the server using an unencrypted network (e.g., a non-secured Wifi device).

 

Other cookie-based attacks involve bad cookie settings on the servers. If a website does not solicit the browser to use only encrypted channels, the attackers may use this vulnerability by tricking the browsers into sending information through unsecured channels. The attackers use afterwards the information for the unauthorized access of certain websites.

 

It is very important for the users to pay attention when they choose the most appropriate method of protection of personal information.

 

Advice for a safe and responsible browsing, based on cookies

 

Considering the cookies' flexibility and the fact that a large number of the most popular and largest websites use cookies, they are almost impossible to avoid. Disabling cookies will not allow the user to access the most popular and used website, among which: Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Gmail, Yahoo and other.

Here are some tips that can provide browsing without care, but with the help of cookies:

personalize your cookie browser settings, in order to create an adequate level of protection from the use of cookies.

  • if you are not bothered by the use of cookies and are the only person using the computer, you may set longer expiration periods for the storage of the browsing history and of personal access data.

  • if you share access on your computer, you may want to set your browser to clear private browsing data every time you close your browser. This is an option to access sites that place cookies and delete any browsing information from visitors at the end of the session.

  • Install and update constantly antispyware applications. Many of the applications to detect and prevent spyware include detecting attacks on sites. Thus, they block your browser from accessing websites designed to exploit browser vulnerabilities or download malicious software;

  • make sure your browser is always updated. Many cookie-related attacks are based on exploiting the browser's older version weaknesses.

Cookies are everywhere and they cannot be avoided, if you wish to enjoy your access on the best and biggest websites online - local or international. With a clear understanding of their way of operation and the benefits they bring, you can take the necessary measures of security, in order to be able to browse the internet confidently.

 

How to proceed if you do not want the cookies to be installed on your computer?

 

There are people for whom the storage of information extracted from their computer or mobile device is relatively invasive, especially when the information in question is stored and used by unknown third parties. If you prefer, you can block all cookies or only some of them or even remove cookies that have been installed on your terminal. However, please be aware that you may not be able to use certain features. To do this, you need to modify your browser privacy settings. Some third-party operators have developed tools the modules of which allow for the disabling of the data collection and use. Disabling and the refusal to accept cookies may make certain sections/ pages visited impassable or difficult to use. Also, the refusal to accept cookies does not mean you will not get/ see online advertising. It is possible to adjust your browser against accepting these cookies, or the browser may be adjusted to accept the cookies from a certain website. But, for instance, if a user is not registered using cookies, that user will not be able to leave comments. All of the modern browsers offer the possibility to change the cookie settings.

These settings are normally available in the “Options”, “Settings” or “Preferences” menus (buttons) of the browser.

For further details, please visit www.youronlinechoices.com to inform yourself about the technologies used and about the renunciation to this type of ad. If you opt out of an online advertising network, it will no longer show you adverts tailored to your web preferences and browsing patterns. However, you may still receive online adverts, and you may still be subject to marketing analysis.

We may amend this Cookie Statement from time to time; please check back here for any updates.
