Website www . smarrt.ro (website, site) uses its own cookies and third-party cookies to provide visitors with a better browsing experience and services adapted to everyone's needs and interests.
Cookies play an important role in facilitating the access and delivery of multiple services that the user enjoys on the Internet, such as:

- Cookies offer website owners valuable feedback on how the website is used by users, so that they can make it even more efficient or more accessible for users;

A COOK (term also known as "browser cookies" or "HTTP cookie" ) is a small text file, consisting of letters, numbers and other symbols, which will be stored on the computer or mobile terminal or other equipment used to access the www.smarrt.ro website or applications.
The cookie is installed through the request issued by a web server to an internet browser (web browser - eg: Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, etc.) in order to store data regarding statistics, preferences or other information provided by the user .
A cookie consists of 2 parts: the name and the content of the cookie. Moreover, the duration of existence of a cookie is determined; technically, only the web server that sent the cookie can access it again when a user returns to the website associated with that web server.
Cookies themselves do not require personal information to be used and, in most cases, do not personally identify Internet users.
There are 2 large categories of cookies:
- Session cookies - they are temporarily stored in the cookies folder of the web browser so that it remembers them until the user leaves the respective website or closes the browser window (eg: when logging in/out of an account).
- Persistent Cookies - they are stored on the hard drive of a computer or equipment (and in general it depends on the preset lifetime for the cookie). Persistent cookies also include those placed by a website other than the one the user is visiting at the time - known as "third party cookies" - which can be used anonymously to remember the interests of a user, so that the most relevant advertising for users is delivered.
3. What are the advantages of cookies?
A cookie contains information that connects a web-browser (the user) and a specific web-server (the website). If a browser accesses that web-server again, it can read the information already stored and react accordingly. Thus, a cookie can ensure an easy and comfortable browsing experience.
4. What is the lifetime of a cookie?
Cookies are managed by web servers. The lifetime of a cookie can vary significantly, depending on the purpose for which it is placed. Some cookies are used exclusively for a single session ( session cookies ) and are no longer retained once the user has left the website and some cookies are retained and reused each time the user returns to that website ( cookies permanent ). However, cookies can be deleted by a user at any time through the browser settings.
5. What are cookies placed by third parties?
Certain sections of content on some sites may be provided through third parties/providers (eg: news box, a video or an advertisement). These third parties can also place cookies through the site and they are called "third party cookies" because they are not placed by the owner of the respective website. Third-party providers must also comply with the law in force and the privacy policies of the website owner.
