Cookies are used for a variety of reasons. Unfortunately, in most cases, there are no industry standard options for disabling cookies without completely disabling the functionality and features they add to this site. It is recommended that you leave on all cookies if you are not sure whether you need them or not in case they are used to provide a service that you use.

Cookies allow the website to function better and more efficiently. Cookies are needed for you to browse and use their services and functionalities. The website will not function smoothly without essential cookies, and we might not be able to provide you with certain services or features.

Cookies are used to prepare anonymous statistics, which aid us in understanding how a given user prefers to use our website, allowing us to improve its structure and contents without identifying the user. The Formclick website may also use certain features, software such as Google Analytics, Google Adsense or Google Adwords, Facebook, Twitter and other social media plugins, which contain cookies. We process the information collected through cookies to analyze the usage of our Services, improve their functionality, and personalize your experience. The information obtained from cookies is generally aggregated and anonymous.

The Cookie We Have Set

Log Files

Formclick follows a standard procedure of using log files. These files log visitors when they visit websites. All hosting companies do this as part of hosting services analytics. The information collected by log files includes internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, Internet Service Provider (ISP), date and time stamp, referring/exit pages, and possibly the number of clicks. These are not linked to any personally identifiable information. The purpose of the information is to analyze trends, administer the site, track user's movement on the website, and gather demographic information.

What types of cookies do we use?

We use two types of cookies for the user session and fixed ones. The former ones are temporary files, which remain on the device of the user until the end of the session or until closing the web browser. The fixed files remain on the device of the user for some time, specified in the cookies or until deleted by the User.

Security and Confidentiality

Cookies are not viruses. They take the form of simple text. They are not made out of code and cannot be executed alone. Consequently, they may not be duplicated or copied into other networks to get started and copied once more. Since cookies cannot perform those functions, they cannot be regarded as viruses.

Advice On Secure and Responsible Surfing, Using Cookies

Thanks to their flexibility and the fact that many of the most visited and biggest websites use cookies, their use is almost inevitable. Deactivating cookies will not allow the access of a given user to many of the most commonly used websites. Here is some advice which can ensure safe surfing, but with the help of cookies: Personalize your cookie browser settings to create an adequate level of protection from the use of cookies.

If you are the only person who uses the computer, you may set longer terms for the expiration of the storage of the browsing history and access to personal data.

If you share your computer access with somebody, you may set your browser settings to delete the surfing data every time you close your web browser.

Ensure that your browser is always up to date. Many of the attacks, based on cookies, are realized when exploiting the weak spots of old and non-updated versions of the web browsers. Cookies are everywhere and they may not be circumvented if you would like to enjoy your access to the best and biggest websites on the Internet.
