2.            WHAT ARE COOKIES AND WHAT IS THEIR USEFULNESS?

We use the term "cookies" to refer to cookies and similar technologies through which information can be collected automatically. Cookies are text files, controlled by your internet browser. An "Internet Cookie" (also known as a "browser cookie" or "HTTP cookie" or "cookie") is a small file consisting of letters and numbers that will be stored on your computer, mobile terminal or other equipment of a user through which the Website is accessed. Cookies are installed by request from a web server to a browser (for example, Chrome, Internet Explorer).

When accessing the Website, it will ask the internet browser to store cookies in the memory of the computer, mobile terminal or other equipment. The information in cookies generates the retention of certain settings/actions between two distinct sessions, thus increasing the speed of loading pages on subsequent visits. These files may look like "bookmarks" that indicate where you last stayed when you visited the Website. They can also be seen as identifiers that announce the Website every time you return to https://loop-mania.com.

There are situations in which the IP address from which the Website is accessed or that of the reference site can be retained, if applicable. Cookies allow the Website to provide personalized information and advertisements relevant to the user and will not be sold, transfered or rented to a third party. Such ads may appear on the Google Display and Google Search network websites. Cookies improve upload speed and browsing experience. For example, they take into account your preferences when browsing a website, such as the language in which you want the content to be displayed.

Cookies are not dangerous. The computer stores them in its memory, but they cannot access or read information stored on the computer. You can extend or limit the use of cookies in the browser you use to browse the Internet.

These files are also used to prepare anonymous statistics that help us understand how visitors generally interact with the pages of the Website. For analysis, the Website uses the Google Analytics service, which uses cookies. In this case, the files save information about the use of the Website, the number of pages displayed, the sources from which visitors come and the number of visits. The goal is to improve the Website so that it offers better services and experiences to visitors.

Once installed, cookies have a determined lifespan, remaining "passive", in the sense that they do not contain software, viruses or spyware and will not access the information on the hard driver of the user on whose equipment they were installed.

A cookie consists of two parts:

a)            the name of the cookie; and

b)           the content or value of the cookie.

From a technical point of view, only the web server that sent the cookie can access it again when a user returns to the Internet page associated with that web server.

Cookies themselves do not require personal data in order to be used and, in most cases, the information collected through them is not likely to lead to the identification of Internet users. However, cookies can be used to capture information such as IP address, geo-location data, data on the operating system, the resolution of the device used, data on visits to the website (including the number of visits, time spent on the Website, the way the Website was accessed, behavior on the Website).
