Why do we use cookies?

Cookies are especially important for browsing the Internet as we understand it today. They determine the efficient functioning of the websites, intermediating a browsing experience adapted to your preferences and interests. Declining or disabling cookies may make some sites unusable. However, keep in mind that refusing or disabling cookies does not mean that you will no longer be targeted for online advertising, but only that the advertising you receive will no longer take into account your interests that advertising providers collect through cookies. .

For example, cookies allow us to present you content and services adapted to your preferences by product and service categories. We can also submit offers tailored to your interests. Cookies help to filter the content presented to minors through family mode options and safe search functions. Also through cookies we can present you advertising that may interest you and that you consider relevant, in a way whose frequency of broadcasting is limited to a level adapted to your wishes and expectations. In conclusion, we collect, measure, analyze analytical information to determine a certain level of traffic on our site, to find out what type of content is viewed and how you got to the website www.loake.ro: through a search engine, offline, redirected from another site, etc.

All this information is collected and analyzed to improve our site for your benefit.

Your security and privacy

Because they are made up of text, cookies cannot be executed as a code, nor can they auto-run, which is why there is no risk of replicating on other networks to run or replicate again. Given these characteristics and the fact that they cannot be replicated, they are not and cannot be considered viruses.
We must keep in mind, however, that since their purpose is to collect information about your preferences and browsing history, both on the loake.ro site and on other sites, cookies can be used as a form of Spyware. . Anti-spyware programs take a stand against cookies to prevent risks, marking them in anti-virus / anti-spyware deletion / scanning procedures.

Also, browsers have their own privacy and security settings that differentiate between the levels of acceptance of cookies, their validity period and ensure the automatic deletion after leaving a certain site.

Other security issues related to cookies

Because cookies transmit information between the browser and the website in both directions, there is a risk and interest that an attacker or an unauthorized person may intervene in this transfer of information. Although it happens very rarely, this risk materializes when your browser accesses the servers through an insecure network.

There are attacks through cookies that involve their incorrect settings on servers. This risk materializes when a website does not require the browser to communicate only through encrypted channels. Attackers can try to exploit this vulnerability in order to determine the browser to send information through unsecured channels. That is why it is very important that each user chooses different methods of protection of personal information and not to expose them randomly.

Tips for a pleasant, safe and responsible experience

Given the evolution of the Internet and the way eCommerce works, cookies have grown a lot in terms of relevance, usefulness and flexibility, which is why they are almost inevitable for a normal journey without impediments. Of course, you can choose to disable your cookies, but this operation can restrict access to both loake.ro and other more trafficked sites, such as the Google suite, Gmail, Youtube, Yahoo, etc. Also, blocking cookies does not block online advertising.

For using the Internet and websites without unpleasant experiences, here are some tips that might help you:
First of all, make sure that you have anti-spyware programs installed and make sure that they are always up to date. They have the functionality to block unauthorized access to sites that would seek to exploit browser vulnerabilities or force the download of programs with dangerous content.

The browser must always be up to date. Often browser updates do not come as a functionality or facelift update, but even as a Security update and vulnerability protection. Attacks that exploit cookies are based precisely on the bi-directional exchange of information that some older versions of browsers fail to secure effectively.
The browsers updated to the latest versions allow the settings of cookies and the personalization of the options available through them. The settings are normally found in the "options" section or in the "preferences" section of the browser.
