The safety of your data is our top priority, which is why we take every aspect of your data protection seriously.
As of May 25, 2018, Regulation (EU) 2016/679 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data, and repealing Directive 95/46/EC (the General Data Protection Regulation, known as GDPR), has been in force. This means that any Controller/entity that processes personal data must apply these new requirements and provide, in a transparent manner, information about how the data is processed.
To improve your online browsing experience, we use cookies that make it easier for visitors to use the website https://getik.ro. The full list of third-party cookies can be found below.
An "Internet Cookie" (also known as a "browser cookie," "HTTP cookie," or simply "cookie") is a small file, made up of letters and numbers, that is stored on the computer, mobile device, or other equipment of a user accessing the Internet. The cookie is installed at the request issued by a web server to a browser (e.g., Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox) and is completely "passive" (it does not contain software programs, viruses, or spyware, and cannot access information on the user's hard drive).
A cookie consists of two parts: its name and its content, or value. Furthermore, the lifespan of a cookie is determined in advance; technically, only the server that sent the cookie can access it again when a user returns to the website associated with that web server.
Cookies play an important role in facilitating access to and delivery of the many services a user enjoys on the Internet, such as:
Cookies themselves do not require personal information in order to be used and, in most cases, do not personally identify internet users.
There are two broad categories of cookies:
Cookies are managed by web servers. The lifespan of a cookie can vary significantly depending on the purpose for which it is placed. Some cookies are used exclusively for a single session (session cookies) and are no longer retained once the user has left the website, while other cookies are retained and reused every time the user returns to that website ("persistent cookies"). However, cookies can be deleted by a user at any time via the browser settings.
Generally speaking, the role of cookies is to ensure fast and easy interaction between users and websites. Cookies are also used so that users can easily resume their activities the next time they access a website they have previously visited. In essence, cookies tell the server which pages should be displayed to the user, without the user having to remember which pages they navigated to or browse the entire site again from the start.
Session cookies are stored on the user's device during the browsing session. They store an anonymous session identifier, allowing the user to visit a website without having to enter identification information (username, password, etc.) on every page.
Such cookies are frequently used in an online store. For example, when a user visits a particular page and selects certain products, the cookie remembers the selected products and adds them to the shopping cart, which will contain all the products selected by the time the user wants to leave the page. Session cookies are stored in the device's memory only for the duration of an internet browsing session and are removed when the browser is closed. They may also become inaccessible if the session has been inactive for a certain period of time.
PHPSESSID Source: local Persistence: Until the end of the browsing session Role: Enables data to be carried from one page to another during the current session.
Third-Party Cookies:
_ga Source: Google Analytics Persistence: 2 years Role: Stores anonymous information about the user's interaction with the site (for example, the time and date of interaction with various marketing materials or the pages that brought the user to the site). Details: https://policies.google.com/technologies/types
_gt_ga_MECYEC7DGF Source: Google Analytics Persistence: 24 hours Role: This cookie is used by Google Tag Manager to identify users and events on the site and how they interact with our site. The data collected is anonymous. Details: https://policies.google.com/technologies/types
Cookies keep information in a small text file that allows a website to recognize a browser. The web server will recognize the browser until the cookie expires or is deleted. The cookie stores important information that improves the internet browsing experience (for example: the user session ID, the referral page, the current time, etc.).
Cookies are central to the efficient functioning of the Internet, helping to create a browsing experience that is friendly and tailored to each user's preferences and interests. Refusing or disabling cookies may make some sites impossible to use. Refusing or disabling cookies does not mean you will no longer receive online advertising – it simply means that the advertising will no longer be able to take your preferences and interests, as reflected by your browsing behavior, into account.
Examples of important uses of cookies (which do not require a user to log in via an account):
Cookies are NOT viruses! They use "plain text" formats. They are not made up of pieces of code, so they cannot be executed and cannot self-run. As a result, they cannot duplicate or replicate themselves on other networks in order to run or replicate again. Because they cannot perform these functions, they cannot be considered viruses. Cookies can nevertheless be used for negative purposes. Many anti-spyware products are aware of this and routinely flag cookies for deletion during anti-virus/anti-spyware scanning/cleanup procedures.
Browsers generally have built-in privacy settings that provide different levels of cookie acceptance, expiration periods, and automatic deletion after a user has visited a given site.
Retention of personal data. The personal data stored will be used for the purpose of processing your requests. Once your request has been completed, the data is retained in accordance with the retention periods required by tax and commercial legislation and, where applicable, for the period necessary to protect the Controller's rights.
Google Analytics. We use Google Analytics to collect information about how visitors use our websites and web applications. For example, we collect details such as the source of the visit and the total number of visitors to our site and applications. This allows us to determine the effectiveness of our promotional campaigns and user activity on our sites and applications. You can find more details about the Google Analytics privacy policy here: https://support.google.com
Disabling and refusing to accept cookies may make certain sites impractical or difficult to visit and use. Also, refusing to accept cookies does not mean you will no longer receive/see online advertising.
You can set your browser so that these cookies are no longer accepted, or you can set your browser to accept cookies only from a specific site.
Some browsers have a "Do Not Track" feature that allows users to avoid being tracked while browsing. Blocking cookies or using "Do Not Track" mode may block certain features on our sites.
All modern browsers offer the ability to change cookie settings. These settings are usually found under "options" or in the browser's "preferences" menu.
To understand these settings, the following links may be helpful; otherwise, you can use the browser's "help" option for more details.

Given the need to comply with GDPR provisions, as well as the fact that we are committed to taking care of your personal data (which may include first name, last name, email address, etc., depending on the purpose of processing) held in our database, we inform you that this data is used solely for the purpose of successfully carrying out the processes involved in our relationship with you (some examples of such processes, without being limited to these: booking/selling/processing orders, transport and delivery, maintaining customer relationships).
