This Cookie Policy aims to inform you about the processing of personal data obtained automatically through the placement of cookies on your terminal devices on our website www.edvido.com/en, the purposes for which we use these cookies, and how you can manage these cookies.
In this Cookie Policy, the cookies used to provide a better service to visitors and to create a functional online environment on the website are explained to visitors, detailing how personal data obtained in accordance with international data protection laws are processed, and the legal rights and authorities of the user.
What is a Cookie?
A cookie is a small text file, typically consisting of letters and numbers, stored on the hard drive or in the browser folder when a website is visited. The purpose of using cookies is to provide a faster and more functional service on the company website. Cookies serve the activity of offering a personalized online environment to the website visitor. All our visitors and users have the right to accept or reject cookies used on the website, to set and change cookie preferences. Additionally, visitors and users have the right to request the deletion and destruction of existing cookies from the Company.
Types of Cookies
Cookies can be classified into three categories based on their purposes, durations, and sources.
In this classification based on the purpose of use, the types of cookies explained include strictly necessary cookies, preference cookies, statistics cookies, and marketing cookies.
Strictly necessary cookies are used for features such as navigating the website and accessing secure areas of the site. For example, in e-commerce stores, to complete an online purchase, the selected items need to be retained for the next step. Cookies that allow items to be kept in the shopping cart on e-commerce sites are examples of strictly necessary cookies. These are generally first-party session cookies. Although consent is not required for these cookies, the reason for their use and their necessity should be explained to the user.
These cookies remember the choices made in the past on the website (e.g., username, password, preferred language). Preference cookies, which enable automatic login to the website, are also known as functional cookies.
Also known as performance cookies, statistics cookies provide anonymous, statistical data regarding the use of the website. These cookies can store information such as how the user interacts with the website, the pages visited, and the links clicked. Anonymized statistics cookies are not used to identify website users. The purpose of these cookies is to make the website more functional.
Marketing cookies are used by advertisers to deliver advertisements based on the user’s interests. The statistical data of the ads encountered by the website user, along with the data obtained via marketing cookies, can be shared with other organizations or advertisers. These are cookies that can be stored permanently.
Cookies can be classified into session cookies and persistent cookies based on the duration for which the data is retained. The difference between session cookies and persistent cookies is that session cookies provide temporary, real-time data.
Session cookies provide data that can be stored until the user closes the browser or the session ends. These are short-term cookies.
Persistent cookies remain on the drive until the user deletes them or until their specified expiration date. The codes of persistent cookies include variable, written expiration dates. According to the E-Privacy Directive, persistent cookies should not last longer than 12 months.
This classification is based on the source from which the cookie is placed on the device.
These are cookies placed on the device directly by the website being visited.
These are cookies placed on the device by a third party, such as an advertiser or an analytics system, rather than directly by the website being visited.
