The website www.concelex.ro uses cookies to provide its visitors with a better browsing experience and services tailored to each visitor’s interests. Below, we provide the information necessary to inform you about the placement, use, and management of the cookies used by the website www.concelex.ro.
Similarly, in the online environment, there are other websites, personalized pages—including on third-party platforms (such as Facebook or YouTube)—and applications accessed or used through such websites that are operated by or on behalf of CONCELEX S.R.L. and that use cookies as described below.
Scope of This Policy
This Policy applies to the website www.concelex.ro.
By using this website, you consent to our use of cookies in accordance with this Cookie Policy.
If you do not agree with our use of cookies, you must adjust your browser settings accordingly.
Disabling the cookies we use may affect your user experience on this website.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small files consisting of letters and numbers that are stored on a user’s computer, mobile device, or other equipment used to access the internet.
Cookies are installed through a request sent by a web server to a browser (e.g., Internet Explorer, Chrome).
Cookies are completely “passive” (they do not contain software, viruses, or spyware, and cannot access information on the user’s hard drive).
A cookie consists of two parts: the name and the content or value of the cookie. The lifespan of a cookie is predetermined; technically, only the web server that sent the cookie can access it again when a user returns to the website associated with that web server.
Cookies themselves do not require personal information to function and, in most cases, do not personally identify internet users.
There are two main categories of cookies:
- session cookies: these are temporarily stored in the web browser’s cookie folder so that the browser can retain them until the user leaves the website or closes the browser window;
- persistent cookies: these are stored on a computer’s hard drive or other device and are reactivated when you visit the site that created that specific cookie. Persistent cookies also include those placed by a website other than the one the user is currently visiting. These are known as “third-party cookies.” They track a user’s interests to deliver advertising that is as relevant as possible to them.
What is the lifespan of a cookie?
The lifespan of a cookie can vary significantly, depending on the purpose for which it is placed. Some cookies are intended for single use (such as session cookies) and are therefore not retained once the user leaves the site. Other cookies are retained and reused each time the user returns to the site (persistent cookies). However, cookies can be deleted by the user at any time through browser settings.
What are third-party cookies?
Some content sections of certain websites may be provided through third-party cookies, such as advertisements. Such cookies may be placed on the website and are referred to as third-party cookies because they are not placed by the website owner. These third parties are, in turn, required to comply with applicable legal regulations and the privacy policies of the respective website owner.
Why are cookies important for the Internet?
Cookies are central to the efficient functioning of the Internet, helping to create a user-friendly browsing experience tailored to each user’s preferences and interests. Refusing or disabling cookies may make some websites impossible to use. Rejecting or disabling cookies does not mean you will no longer receive online advertising—it simply means that the advertising will no longer be able to take into account your preferences and interests, as indicated by your browsing behavior. Examples of important uses of cookies (which do not require a user to log in via an account):
- Content and services tailored to user preferences – product and service categories;
- Offers tailored to users’ interests – password storage;
- Storage of child protection filters for Internet content (family mode options, safe search features);
- Limiting the frequency of ad delivery – limiting the number of times an ad is displayed to a specific user on a website;
- Providing more relevant advertising to the user;
- Measuring, optimizing, and analytics features—such as determining a website’s traffic volume, what type of content is viewed, and how a user arrives at a website (e.g., via search engines, directly, from other websites, etc.). Websites conduct these usage analyses to improve their sites for the benefit of users.
What types of cookies do we use?
When you visit this site, the following types of cookies may be placed:
- site performance cookies: these remember your preferences on this site;
- visitor analytics cookies: these tell us whether you have visited this site before; your browser will tell us if you have this cookie, and if not, we will generate one;
- geotargeting cookies: these are used by software that determines which country you’re from; they’re completely anonymous and are used solely for content targeting;
- registration cookies: these tell us whether or not you’re registered, show us the account you’re logged into, and indicate whether you have permission for a specific service;
- for advertising: based on these, we can determine whether or not you have viewed an online ad, what type of ad it was, and how much time has passed since you viewed that ad.
- Do cookies contain personal data?
- Cookies themselves do not require personal information to function, and in most cases, they do not personally identify internet users. Personal data may be collected through the use of cookies solely to facilitate certain features for the user.
How can you change your browser’s cookie settings?
Deleting Cookies. The applications used to access web pages allow cookies to be saved on your device by default.

Detailed information about the options and methods for managing cookies can be found in the settings section of your web browser.
