Cookie Policy
To ensure the proper functioning of this website, we sometimes place small data files on your computer, known as cookies. Most websites do this.
This policy explains how the website www.armare.ro (hereinafter referred to as the "Website") uses cookies and other similar technologies, what information is collected through them, for what purpose, and how you can control these cookies.
1. What are "cookies" and "similar technologies"
Cookies are small text files that a website (either visited by the user or a third-party website) sends to the visitor's browser (e.g., Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Safari, etc.) and are saved on the device used by the user to access that specific website (computer, mobile phone, tablet, etc.).
Thanks to cookies, the website remembers your actions and preferences (such as preferred language, font size, and other display preferences) for a limited period of time. This way, you do not have to re-enter them every time you return to the site or navigate from one page to another.
Cookies are used to enable the proper functioning of the website and to make its use easier. They also provide basic information to generate general anonymous statistics that allow us to understand how pages are used, in order to improve the structure and content of the website.
Similar technologies, known as "pixel tags", "web beacons", or "clear gifs", are also electronic files used to track how users navigate through pages or to confirm interaction with certain communications (such as newsletters). These technologies often rely on cookies to function properly, so blocking cookies will affect their functionality.
2. Types of cookies
Cookies can be differentiated as follows:
Depending on the domain they belong to:
- First-party cookies: transmitted directly by the server of the visited website.
- Third-party cookies: transmitted by a web domain different from that of the visited website (e.g., Google, social networks, etc.).
Depending on their lifespan:
- Session cookies: automatically deleted when the user closes the web browser (they allow maintaining an active browsing session, retaining data from one page to another).
- Persistent cookies: remain on the user's device for a predefined period of time or until they are manually deleted by the user.
Some cookies (session or persistent) are strictly necessary (essential) for the proper functioning of the Website and can be stored on your device without your prior consent. The storage of all other types of cookies (statistical, preference, marketing) can only be done after your explicit consent is expressed through the cookie banner.
3. How we use cookies and similar technologies
When you visit the website www.armare.ro, we may place both first-party and third-party cookies. Upon your first access to the Website, we display a special banner (cookie banner) to inform you about their use and to allow you to express your choices freely.
With the exception of strictly necessary cookies, other cookies are only placed when you press the total acceptance button or after you have configured your specific preferences in the settings panel.
If you have accepted the use of cookies, we save this preference for a period of 180 days, an interval during which the information banner will not be re-displayed (on the same browser). If you delete cookies from your browser settings, the banner will appear again on your next visit.
