COOKIE POLICY
What are cookies?
A cookie is a small text file that is stored on your device every time you use the Metaminds S.A. website (available at https://www.metaminds.com, hereinafter referred to as the “Website”) to efficiently provide you with the functionalities and content of the Website. The cookie is installed by the request issued by a web server to a browser (e.g., Internet Explorer, Chrome) and is completely “passive” (it does not contain software programs, viruses, or spyware and cannot access the user’s hard drive information). A cookie contains information that links a web browser (you, as a user) and a specific web server (the Website). If a browser accesses that web server again, it can read the already stored information and react accordingly. Cookies ensure users have a pleasant browsing experience and support the efforts of many sites to offer comfortable services to users, such as online privacy preferences, site language options, or relevant advertising.
The cookies we use are our own (Metaminds S.A). Mainly, you should know that the original cookies (Metaminds S.A. cookies) are installed on the Metaminds S.A. Website you visit. They can only be read on our website. There are two main categories of cookies:
- Session cookies – these are temporarily stored in the browser’s cookie folder so that it can remember them until the user exits the respective website or closes the browser window (e.g., during login/logout to a webmail account).
- Persistent cookies – these are stored on a computer’s or equipment’s hard drive (and generally depend on the preset lifespan for the cookie). Persistent cookies also include those placed by a site other than the one the user is currently visiting – known as “third-party cookies” – which can be used anonymously to remember a user’s interests so that relevant advertising is delivered to users.
Please note that during the navigation of the Website, changes may occur regarding the cookies used. If such changes occur, we will update this Cookie Policy and post it on the Website.
