 11.Cookie Policy

This policy refers to the cookies and web pages operated by ArenaCAD.

What are Cookies?

A cookie is a small file, made up of letters and numbers, that will be stored on the computer, mobile device, or other equipment of a user accessing the internet. The cookie is installed by a web server’s request to a browser (e.g., Internet Explorer, Chrome etc.) and is completely “passive” (it does not contain software programs, viruses, or spyware, and cannot access the user’s hard drive information).

What are Cookies used for?

These files make it possible to recognize the user’s terminal and present the content in a relevant manner, adapted to the user’s preferences. Cookies provide users with a pleasant browsing experience and support ArenaCAD’s efforts to provide comfortable services to users. They are also used to prepare anonymous aggregate statistics that help us understand how a user benefits from our web pages, allowing us to improve their structure and content, excluding the personal identification of the user.

What Cookies do we use?

We use two types of cookies: session and fixed. The latter are temporary files that remain on the user’s terminal until the end of the session or the closure of the application (web browser). Fixed files remain on the user’s terminal for a period within the parameters of the cookie or until they are manually deleted by the user.

How are cookies used by this site?

A visit to this site may place cookies for the following purposes:

  • Site performance cookies
  • Visitor analysis cookies
  • Geotargeting cookies
  • Registration cookies
  • Advertising cookies
  • Advertising provider cookies

 

Do Cookies contain personal data?

Cookies themselves do not request personal information 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.

Deleting Cookies

In general, an application used to access web pages allows cookies to be saved on the terminal by default. These settings can be changed so that the automatic management of cookies is blocked by the web browser or the user is informed each time cookies are sent to their terminal. Detailed information about the possibilities and ways of managing cookies can be found in the settings area of the application (web browser). Limiting the use of cookies may affect certain functionalities of the web page.

Why are Cookies important for the Internet?

Cookies are the central point of the efficient functioning of the Internet, helping to generate a friendly and tailored browsing experience to the preferences and interests of each user. Refusing or disabling cookies can make some sites impossible to use. Refusing or disabling cookies does not mean that you will no longer receive online advertising – it just means 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 a user to authenticate through an account):

  • Content and services adapted to user preferences – categories of products and services
  • Offers adapted to user interests – password retention
  • Retaining child protection filters regarding internet content (family mode options, safe search functions)
  • Limiting the frequency of displaying ads – limiting the number of times an ad is displayed to a particular user on a site
  • Providing more relevant advertising to the user
  • Measurement, optimization, and analytics characteristics – such as verifying a certain level of website traffic, what type of content is being viewed, and how a user arrives at a website (e.g. through search engines, direct, from other websites, etc.). Websites conduct these usage analyses to improve their sites for the benefit of users.

Security and privacy issues

Cookies are NOT viruses! They use plain text formats. They are not composed of pieces of code so they cannot be executed, nor can they self-run. Therefore, they cannot be duplicated or replicated on other networks to run or replicate again. Because they cannot perform these functions, they cannot be considered viruses. However, cookies can still be used for negative purposes. Since they store information about users’ preferences and browsing history, both on a particular site and on multiple other sites, cookies can be used as a form of spyware. Many anti-spyware products are aware of this and consistently mark cookies to be deleted during anti-virus/anti-spyware scanning procedures. In general, browsers have integrated privacy settings that provide different levels of acceptance of cookies, validity periods, and automatic deletion after the user has visited a certain site. Other security aspects related to cookies: Because identity protection is very valuable and represents the right of every internet user, it is important to know what potential problems cookies can create. Since they constantly transmit information in both directions between the browser and the website, if an attacker or unauthorized person intervenes in the data transmission process, the information contained in the cookie can be intercepted. Although very rare, this can happen if the browser connects to the server using an unencrypted network (e.g. an unsecured WiFi network). Other cookie-based attacks involve incorrect cookie settings on servers. If a website does not request that the browser use only encrypted channels, attackers can use this vulnerability to trick browsers into sending information through unsecured channels. Attackers then use the information for unauthorized access to certain sites. It is very important to be careful in 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 websites use cookies, they are almost inevitable. Disabling cookies will not allow the user to access the most popular and widely used sites, including YouTube, Gmail, Yahoo, and others. Here are some tips that can ensure worry-free browsing, but with the help of cookies: Customize your browser settings for cookies to reflect a comfortable level of cookie usage security. If you don’t mind cookies and are the only person using the computer, you can set long expiration periods for browsing history and personal access data storage. If you share computer access, you may consider setting the browser to clear individual browsing data every time you close the browser. This is a way to access sites that place cookies and to erase any visitation information when the browsing session is closed. Install and constantly update anti-spyware applications. Many spyware detection and prevention applications include detection of attacks on websites. They thus prevent the browser from accessing websites that could exploit browser vulnerabilities or download dangerous software. Make sure your browser is always up to date. Many cookie-based attacks are carried out by exploiting the weak points of old browser versions. Cookies are everywhere and cannot be avoided if you want to enjoy access to the most popular sites.
