What can cookies be used for?
Cookies are most commonly used to make websites work, or work more efficiently, as well as to provide information to the owners of the site. Cookies enable a website to recognise whether users have visited it before, or help it understand user preferences. Cookies provide data on which part of the website is the most popular, as they show which pages users visit and how much time they spend on them. By studying this data, websites can be adapted to users’ needs and provide a richer user experience. In addition, cookies are used to ensure that the information displayed meets users’ expectations on each subsequent visit (without you having to select it yourself).
Types of cookies
There are three ways of classifying cookies – by function, duration and origin.
- By function
- Necessary cookies – cookies strictly necessary for the proper functioning of the website, which make the site easier to use. Without these cookies, parts of the website will not function properly, so these cookies cannot be disabled.
- Functional cookies – cookies that enable the website to be customised by recording individual user preferences. By default, these cookies are always disabled when the website is opened and are activated only with the user’s consent. The user’s consent can be withdrawn at any time by opening the cookie settings at the bottom of the page.
- Statistical cookies – cookies that enable the tracking of the number of visits and traffic so that we can measure and improve the performance of the website. The website crosco.com does not use cookies of this type.
- Marketing cookies – targeted-advertising cookies that store information about user behaviour by tracking browsing habits and history, which enables the display of targeted third-party advertisements. The website crosco.com does not use cookies of this type.
- By duration
- Session cookies – cookies that are active during the current browsing session and usually have a short expiry time (1-2 minutes to 1-2 days).
- Persistent cookies – cookies that remain active for a longer period (up to 1 year) than session cookies, which may vary for each cookie and is defined by the website operator.
- By origin
- First-party cookies – cookies set directly by the website you are visiting. Only the website operator can read them and access the information stored in the cookie.
- Third-party cookies – cookies placed on the website by third parties that are not the website operator. In that case, personal data is transferred outside the European Economic Area (EEA): Google LLC, Meta Platforms Inc., Xandr Inc. Most of these third countries do not provide the level of protection required under Chapter V of the GDPR for data protection in the EEA. In these cases, the service providers use the Standard Contractual Clauses (“SCCs”) developed by the European Commission.
