2. What are Cookies and Similar Technologies?

Cookies

A cookie is information in the form of an alphanumeric text file. Cookies are generated by a web server, essentially the computer that operates a website, and placed on an internet user's hard drive or device.

The information contained in a cookie is generated by the server and can be used by that server when a user visits the website that hosts the online services.

Similar Technologies

Transformatory Sp. z o. o. uses similar technologies such as:

• Pixel Tags and Web Beacons: Pixel tags (also known as web beacons) are tiny graphics and small code blocks placed on web pages, ads, or emails that allow us to determine if you have performed a specific action. When you access the pages or open an email, the tag informs us that you have accessed the web page or opened the email. These tools enable us to measure the response to our communications and improve our websites and advertising campaigns.

• Server Logs: Server logs record activities on our websites. Other log types capture similar information from our applications. These logs record information about the device you use to access our website, the type of operating system, browser type, domain, and other system settings, as well as the language your system uses and the country and time zone where your device is located. Our logs also record the IP address of the device you use to connect to the internet. An IP address is a unique identifier that devices need to identify and communicate with each other on the internet. We may also collect information about the website you visited before coming to us and the website you visit after leaving our website.

• Other Similar Technologies: We may use other tools or techniques for analyzing website visits by identifying specific device characteristics. These include local HTML5 storage, Flash cookies (local shared object), fingerprinting techniques, pixel tracking, and plugins.

For better clarity, cookies and similar technologies are referred to as "cookies" in this notice.

3. Cookie Lifespan

Cookies have a specific lifespan. The lifespan of a cookie refers to how long a cookie remains on a particular device.

• Session Cookies: Remain on a user's device only for the duration of the current browser session. Session cookies enable the recognition and simplification of user actions on websites, such as saving the contents of a user's shopping cart while they browse a website.

• Persistent Cookies: Remain on a user's device even after a browser session ends. Persistent cookies allow websites to remember a user's preferences and options across multiple browser sessions (e.g., cookies used for targeted advertising).
