Quick Management: You can review, adjust, or withdraw your cookie consent at any time directly through our Cookie Preferences Center.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer, tablet, or smartphone when you visit a website. They are widely used by website operators to make websites work efficiently, provide secure navigation, remember your session state, and deliver aggregated analytics insights.
Similar technologies include local storage (HTML5 LocalStorage), session storage, and tracking pixels. Throughout this document, the term "cookies" collectively refers to cookies and all similar local storage mechanisms.
2. Session vs. Persistent Cookies
Cookies can be classified by their duration on your device:
- Session Cookies: Temporary cookies that remain active only during your active browsing session. They are automatically deleted when you close your web browser.
- Persistent Cookies: Cookies that remain stored on your device for a pre-determined duration (e.g., 6 to 12 months) until they expire or are manually removed. These allow the website to recognize you on subsequent visits and retain your preferences.
3. Categories of Cookies We Use
Shraga 18 LTD groups website cookies into three defined categories:
A. Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for our website to operate securely and reliably. They enable core functionality such as user session integrity, form submission validation (preventing CSRF attacks), and recording your privacy preferences. You cannot disable these cookies through our preferences manager because the website cannot function properly without them.
B. Analytics & Performance Cookies (Optional)
These cookies collect aggregated, pseudonymous information about how visitors interact with our website, such as which pages are visited most often, average dwell time, and navigation patterns. This data helps us improve site performance and enhance user experience. These cookies are only deployed if you grant explicit prior consent.
C. Functional & Preference Cookies (Optional)
Functional cookies enable enhanced website features and personalization, such as remembering your language preferences, form draft fields, or interface display states across sessions. These cookies are only activated with your consent.
