WHAT INFORMATION CONTAINS COOKIES?

Cookies store information in a small text file, which allows a website to recognize a browser. The web server will recognize the browser until the cookie expires or is deleted. Cookies do not request or store personal information in order to be used and, in most cases, do not personally identify Internet users. Personal data collected through the use of cookies can only be collected to facilitate certain functionalities for the user.

Such data is encrypted in a way that makes it impossible for unauthorized persons to access it.

 

WHY ARE COOKIES IMPORTANT TO THE INTERNET?

Cookies are the central point of the efficient functioning of the Internet, helping to generate a friendly browsing experience and adapted to the preferences and interests of each user. Refusing or disabling cookies can make some sites impossible to use.

Refusing or deactivating cookies does not mean that you will no longer receive online advertising - only that it will no longer be able to take into account your preferences and interests, highlighted by your browsing behavior.

Examples of important uses of cookies (which do not require user authentication through an account):

  • Content and services tailored to user preferences - categories of news, weather, sports, maps, public and government services, entertainment sites and travel services.
  • Offers tailored to users' interests - password retention, language preferences (Ex: displaying search results in Romanian).
  • Retain child protection filters on Internet content (family mode options, safe search features).
  • Limiting the frequency of ad serving - Limiting the number of times an ad is displayed for a particular user on a site.
  • Providing more relevant advertising to the user.
  • Measurement, optimization and analytics features - such as confirming a certain level of traffic on a website, what kind of content is viewed and how a user reaches a website (eg through search engines, directly, from other websites - hours etc). The websites carry out these analyzes of their use to improve the websites for the benefit of the users.

 

SECURITY AND PROBLEMS RELATED TO CONFIDENTIALITY

Cookies are NOT viruses! They use plain text formats. They are not made up of pieces of code, so they cannot be executed nor can they self-run. As a result, you cannot duplicate or replicate on other networks to run or replicate again. Because they cannot perform these functions, they cannot be considered viruses.

However, cookies can be used for negative purposes. Because it stores information about users' browsing preferences and browsing history, both on a particular site and on several other sites, cookies can be used as a form of Spyware. Many anti-spyware products are aware of this fact and are constantly flagging cookies for deletion in anti-virus / anti-spyware removal / scanning procedures.

Generally browsers have built-in privacy settings that provide different levels of cookie acceptance, validity period and automatic deletion after the user has visited a particular site.

 

OTHER SAFETY ISSUES RELATED TO COOKIES

Since identity protection is very valuable and represents the right of every Internet user, it is advisable to know what possible problems cookies may create. Because through them they constantly transmit information in both directions between the browser and the website, if an attacker or unauthorized person intervenes during the data transmission, the information contained in the cookie can be intercepted. Although very rarely, this can happen if the browser connects to the server using an unencrypted network (eg an unsecured WiFi network).

Other cookie-based attacks involve incorrect cookie settings on servers. If a website does not require the browser to use only encrypted channels, attackers can use this vulnerability to trick browsers into sending information through unsecured channels. The attackers then use the information for the purpose of unauthorized access to certain sites. It is very important to be careful when choosing the most appropriate method of protecting personal information.

Tips for safe and responsible browsing based on cookies.

Due to their flexibility and the fact that most of the most visited and largest sites use cookies, these are almost inevitable. Disabling cookies will not allow user access to the most popular and used sites including Youtube, Gmail, Yahoo and others.

Here are some tips that can ensure that you do not worry without the help of cookies:

  • Customize your browser settings for cookies to reflect a comfortable level for you, of the security of the use of cookies.
  • If you do not mind cookies and you are the only person using the computer, you can set long deadlines for storing your browsing history and personal access data.
  • If you share computer access, you can consider setting the browser to delete individual browsing data each time you close the browser. This is a way to access websites that place cookies and delete any visit information at the end of your browsing session.
  • Always install and update your antispyware applications.

Many spyware detection and prevention applications include site attack detection. This prevents the browser from accessing websites that might exploit browser vulnerabilities, or download dangerous software. Make sure your browser is always up to date. Many of the cookie-based attacks are made by exploiting the weaknesses of the older versions of cookies
browsers.

Cookies are everywhere and can not be avoided, if you want to enjoy access to the best and largest sites on the Internet - local or international. With a clear understanding of how they operate and the benefits they bring, you can take the necessary security measures so that you can confidently browse the Internet.

 

DELETE COOKIES

These settings can be changed so that the automatic administration of cookies is blocked by the web browser, or the user is informed whenever Cookies are sent to his terminal.
