Cookie Policy for eu.sincronhr.com Website
Review your cookie options
The website eu.sincronhr.com uses its own cookies and third-party cookies to provide visitors with a better online browsing experience and services tailored to the needs and interests of everyone.
In this notice, you’ll find details about what cookies are, how we use them, the types of cookies that can be placed by visiting our site, and how you can manage, delete or reject them.
1. What is a cookie?
Our site, like many others, stores and processes browser information using cookies. This information is stored on your computer, tablet or mobile phone and is used to make the site work as you expect it to. Cookies do not contain personal data but can be used to personalize the experience on our site.
An “Internet Cookie” (also known as “cookie browser” or “HTTP cookie” or simply “cookie”) is a small file of letters and numbers that is stored on your computer, mobile terminal or other equipment of a user on which the Internet is accessed. The cookie is installed through a web browser (eg Internet Explorer, Chrome, Mozilla Firefox) and is completely “passive” (it does not contain software, viruses or spyware and can not access the information on the user’s hard drive).
A cookie consists of two parts: the name and the content or the value of the cookie. Furthermore, the duration of a cookie is determined; 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 be used and, in most cases, do not personally identify Internet users.
The lifetime of a cookie
Cookies are managed by web servers. Their lifetime may vary significantly, depending on the purpose for which they are placed. There are 2 large categories of cookies:
– Session cookies – they are temporarily stored in the web browser’s cookie folder so that they can be saved until the user exits the site or closes the browser window (for example, when logging in/out of a webmail account or social network).
– Persistent cookies – These are stored on the hard drive of a computer or equipment (and generally depend on the cookie’s pre-set lifetime). Persistent cookies include those placed on a website other than the one the user is currently visiting – known as ‘third party cookies’ (cookies placed by third parties).
Cookies placed by third parties
Certain sections of content or actions on the site may be made through third party providers (eg news box, video or advertisement, all social media buttons). These third parties may also place cookies through the site and they are called “third party cookies” because they are not placed by the owner of that website. These cookies can be used anonymously to store the interests of a user so that the advertising being delivered to be as relevant as possible. Third-party vendors must also comply with the applicable law.
Regardless of the type of cookie, they can be deleted by a user at any time through browser settings.
What are the benefits of cookies?
A cookie contains information linking a web browser (user) and a specific web-server (website). If a browser accesses that web-server again, it can read the already stored information and react accordingly.
Thus, cookies provide users with a pleasant browsing experience and support the efforts of many websites to provide user-friendly services, for example: personalizing certain settings such as the language in which a site is viewed, the currency in which certain prices or rates are expressed, saving shopping cart options, online privacy preferences, or relevant advertising. Also, through feedback on site usage, site owners can make them more effective and more accessible to users.
Blocking/disabling cookies does not mean that you will not receive online advertising anymore – just that your activity will no longer be tracked, so the advertising won’t be delivered according to your preferences and interests, highlighted by your browsing behaviour.
Examples of important uses of cookies (which do not require authentication of a user through an account):
• Content and services tailored to user preferences – news categories, weather, sports, maps, public and government services, travel services
• Offers tailored to the interests of users – retaining passwords, language preferences
• Retain Child Protection Filters for Content on the Internet (family mode options, safe search functions)
• Limit ad serving frequency – limit the number of impressions of an ad for a particular user on a site
• Providing more relevant advertising to the user
2. Categories of cookies we use and why we do it
On this website, depending on their purpose, we use the following types of cookies:
Functional or preferences cookies – allow a site to retain information about the changes you make on how the website behaves or shows, such as your preferred language or region. These cookies are not essential to the use of the website. However, without them, certain functionalities may become unavailable.
Analytical or site performance cookies – collect information to statistically analyze how the site works. These cookies help us: understand how our site is being used, how effective our marketing campaigns are and how to personalize the site to improve your experience.
They provide us with information such as: the number of visits to the site, type of visitors – new or recurring, duration of a session, average number of sessions per visitor, pages visited and the average number of pages per session, where our traffic is coming from, frequency of visits and visitor retention over time, language and geographic location, devices on which the site is accessed, browser types, operating system, screen resolution, demographic stats – sex and age, visitor interests and affinity with our site, visitor behavior – how he interacts with the site, how he responds to different types of content, traffic sources – direct, organic and paid searches, references, social media, and other statistical data about how the site is used and what is of interest for the visitors. All the information collected by these cookies is aggregated, therefore anonymous and can be set by third parties, including Google – with the Analytics, Tag Manager and Search Console suite.
Analytical cookies may include advertisements on third-party websites. These cookies allow us to monitor and improve the functioning of our website.
Advertising cookies – these cookies can be set by us or by third parties, being used to show you more relevant advertising messages. For example, they prevent the same ad from reappearing continuously, ensuring the correct display of advertising messages and, in some cases, enabling advertising to be served according to your interests.
This process is called “retargeting” and is based on your browsing activities, such as viewing product detail pages. These cookies help us to prioritize offers/information about products and/or services on the website that we think might be of interest to you. These are persistent (last as long as you’re on the website) and they assume that when you log in or come back to the website, you will see offers/information about products/services you viewed in a previous login session.
