The following text outlines the generalised operation of cookies on websites. The specifics of the use of cookies on smartheal.eu is outlined below.
Cookies are small files that the websites visited by users send and store on the device used to access those websites. When users come back to the same website, the browser recognises the cookie installed on the device and sends back information to the website that created or installed that cookie in the first place.
The information encoded in cookie may include personal data, such as an IP address, user name, unique identifier or email address, but may also contain non-personal data, such as language settings or information about the type of device a person is using to browse the website.
Cookies can, therefore, perform important functions, including session tracking, storing information about specific configurations of users accessing the server, facilitating the enjoyment of online content, etc. They can, for instance, be used to keep track of the information used to fill in a computer form.
A cookie might allow web pages to load more quickly or, perhaps, to present advertising and measure the effectiveness of the advertising message.
The criterion used to classify the cookie used by the website is the purpose, whereby a distinction is made between so-called "essential" cookies and so-called "non-essential" cookie.
This website uses cookies classified according to their purpose:
