1. USE OF COOKIES ON THE WBG.EE WEBSITE

1. Cookies

The wbg.ee website uses so-called cookies. Cookies are information that moves from the web server of a website or a third party to the user’s web browser so that it can be found there later. Cookies can be small files or other means of data storage.

With the help of cookies, the information and offers on the website can be matched to the visitor’s needs. Cookies allow WBG to recognize visitors. The purpose of such recognition is to make it easier for the visitor to use the wbg.ee website.

Wbg.ee uses temporary cookies. They are automatically deleted when you close the browser. These include session cookies in particular. Session cookies store the so-called session ID, with which the various requests of the visitor’s browser are combined into a common session. In this way, the visitor’s computer can be recognized when he returns to the website. With the help of such cookies, wbg.ee can ensure the operation and functions of the website.

In addition, persistent cookies are also used. They remain on the hard disk of the visitor’s computer even after the end of the session. Above all, these cookies help WBG make its offers user-friendly.

Impersonal cookies do not transmit personal data to WBG. These are, for example, statistical cookies. They collect and report information anonymously, helping WBG understand how visitors interact with the website.

Through advertising partners, wbg.ee places advertisements on other websites in order to show the visitor only advertisements that are actually of interest to him. In this process, so-called third-party cookies of such advertising partners are used, which are set by wbg.ee during the visit and read by the corresponding advertising partner. Third-party cookies are temporary files that are stored in the visitor’s browser for a maximum of 540 days after the last visit to the page and then expire automatically.

The visitor can view and delete the cookies stored on his computer, as well as configure their handling in his browser settings. More information can be obtained from the manufacturer or from the function of your web browser.

Allowing cookies is not a prerequisite for using wbg.ee. Most web browsers automatically enable cookies. If the visitor does not want it, he can set his browser so that it informs him about cookies and allows them to be allowed in each specific case. You can also set your browser so that your computer does not save cookies or sends a warning when a new cookie arrives. Some browsers offer, for example, the option to enable first-party cookies, but to block third-party cookies.

In addition, cookies that have already been enabled can always be deleted using a web browser or other software program. This is possible in all major web browsers. The visitor can set the general blocking of cookies in the settings of his web browser. Blocking cookies may mean that the functions of online offers are limited.
