6. Technical Data, Cookies
The system automatically records technical data related to the Data Subject’s device, such as the date and time of the visit, IP address, and browser type.

Cookies are placed on the Data Subject's device to provide tailored services. These cookies are used for session management, improving user experience, and ensuring security.

Ecommerce Hungary and the external service providers listed below place and read small data packages, known as cookies, on the Data Subject's computer to provide customized services. If the browser sends back a previously saved cookie, the service provider can link the data saved during the Data Subject's current visit with the previous data, but only with respect to their own content.

The Service Provider uses the following cookies:

• Security cookie
• Temporary (session) cookie: These are automatically deleted after the Data Subject's visit.
• Permanent (persistent) cookie: These cookies are stored for a longer period in the browser's cookie file. The duration depends on the settings applied by the Data Subject in their internet browser.

Some of these cookies are necessary for the efficient and secure operation of the Service Provider’s website and are essential for certain functions or applications to work properly. Other cookies are placed to enhance the user experience, such as providing optimized navigation.

The "Help" function in most browsers provides information on how the Data Subject can:

External servers assist in the independent measurement and auditing of website traffic and other web analytics data (Google Analytics). Data controllers can provide detailed information about the handling of measurement data to the Data Subject.

The website uses Google AdWords remarketing tracking codes. This is based on re-engaging visitors to the website later with remarketing ads on websites within the Google Display Network. The remarketing code uses cookies to tag visitors. Users of the website can disable these cookies by visiting Google’s ad settings and following the instructions there. After this, personalized offers from the Service Provider will no longer appear for the Data Subject.

If the Data Subject does not wish Google Analytics to measure the above data in the described manner and for the stated purposes, they can install an add-on in their browser to block this.
