General information to the user: Definition and function of cookies

Cookies are usually a small piece of data sent from a website and stored on a user’s computer while the user is browsing the website. Although cookies cannot carry any viruses, they help us understand which sections of our websites are the most popular as they help show which pages are being visited and for how long. This helps us adapt our websites to provide more relevant and accessible information. For example, cookies allow us to ensure that the information displayed during your next visit to our websites will match up with your user preferences. You may configure your browser to accept all cookies, reject cookies, or notify you when a cookie is sent. Please note, however, that disabling cookies might affect your online experience and/or prevent you from taking full advantage of our site and some of its functionality. If you choose to restrict cookies you will have to provide certain information each time you visit our website and reset your preferences.

Advantages of cookies are:

  • Remembering the details as provided by the user.
  • Remembering user preferences.
  • Helping improve the website.
  • Cookies can be deleted by the visitor.
  • Cookies can be blocked by changing browser setting.
  • Cookies cannot carry any threat to the visitor’s device.

What types of cookies can be found on websites?

Exempt Cookies: These are the cookies on which it is not legally necessary to inform or obtain consent for their use. These are cookies that allow communication between the user’s equipment and the network, as well as those that strictly provide a service expressly requested by the user, such as:

  • user input cookies – cookies used to keep track of a user’s input. For example, the completion of a multi-page form, or a shopping basket on an e-commerce website.
  • authentication cookies – cookies used to identify a user once logged in to a website. But cookies used to “remember me” to avoid the need to log in for future visits are not considered “essential.”
  • user-centric security cookies – for example cookies used to detect the number of failed log-ins to a service specifically requested by a user.
  • multimedia player session cookies – cookies used to store technical information (for example network speed, quality and buffering) needed to play video or audio content requested by the user. This might include Flash cookies.
  • load balancing session cookies used to manage server load balancing. This would fall within the first bullet point above (the transmission of a communication).
  • UI customisation cookies – cookies used to remember preferences specifically set by a user (for example, language or display preferences set using a button or tick box) and not linked to other data such as the user’s username. The guidance is slightly contradictory here, but it appears to suggest that if the customisation applies longer than the session then the opinion states that consent is required, but this could be done by including a “uses cookies” message next to the button or tick box.
  • social media content sharing cookies – cookies used by social media plug-ins to identify users that are logged in to social media networks and which are used to enable them to share content using that social media network. These cookies should only persist for so long as the user is logged in or “closed browser” (it’s not clear how this equates with a user that asks the social media network to “remember me”), and the exemption will not apply where that cookie is dropped onto the device of a user who is not logged in.

Depending on who is the entity that manages the computer or domain from which the cookies are sent and treat the data obtained, the cookies can be:

  • Session cookies: Webpages have no memories. A user going from page to page will be treated by the website as a completely new visitor. Session cookies enable the websites you are visiting to keep track of your movement from page to page so you don’t get asked for the same information you’ve already given to the site. Cookies allow you to proceed through many pages of a site quickly and easily without having to authenticate or reprocess each new area you visit.
  • Permanent cookies: Persistent cookies help websites remember your information and settings when you visit them in the future. This result in faster and more convenient access since, for example, you don’t have to login again. Besides authentication, other website features made possible by persistent cookies include: language selection, theme selection, menu preferences, internal site bookmarks or favourites, among many others. On your first visit, the website is presented in default mode. During your visit, you select your preferences and these preferences are remembered, using persistent cookie, the next time you visit the site.
  • Third-party cookies: these are installed by third parties with the aim of collecting certain information to carry out various research into behaviour, demographics etc.

For instances, in our case, third-party cookies are considered those that have not been developed by or for GlobePay (owner of the domain and website www.GlobePay.co and provider of the services of information that is offered through it), such as those used by social networks, or external content supplements such as Google Maps or Google Analytics.
