Cookie Policy

Understanding how cookies are used on our website and the choices you have.

This Cookie Policy explains how Discover Canada ("we", "us", or "our") uses cookies and similar technologies on our website (karamelinaya-pitstsa.com). It explains what these technologies are and why we use them, as well as your rights to control our use of them.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and provide information to the owners of the site. Cookies allow websites to recognize your device and remember information about your visit, such as your preferred language and other settings.

Cookies can be "first-party cookies" or "third-party cookies." First-party cookies are placed by the website you are visiting, while third-party cookies are placed by a domain different from the one you are visiting. We use both first-party and third-party cookies on our website.

2. Types of Cookies We Use

We use the following types of cookies on our website:

3. Other Tracking Technologies

In addition to cookies, we use other similar technologies to track and analyze website usage:

3.1 Web Beacons

Web beacons (also known as "clear gifs," "pixel tags," or "web bugs") are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies. While cookies are stored on your computer's hard drive, web beacons are embedded invisibly on web pages. We may use web beacons in our HTML-based emails to let us know which emails have been opened by recipients, which helps us measure the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns.

3.2 Local Storage

Local Storage (including HTML5 Local Storage and Local Shared Objects) provides websites with a way to store information locally on your computer or mobile device. This technology is similar to cookies but can store larger amounts of data and persists even after you close your browser.

You have several options for managing cookies and similar technologies:

4.1 Cookie Preferences Manager

You can manage your cookie preferences directly on our website using our Cookie Preferences Manager. You can access this tool by clicking the "Cookie Settings" link in the footer of our website or when the cookie banner appears.

4.2 Browser Settings

Most web browsers allow you to manage your cookie preferences. You can set your browser to refuse cookies or delete certain cookies. Generally, you should also be able to manage similar technologies in the same way that you manage cookies – using your browser's preferences.

The following links provide information on how to modify cookie settings in common browsers:

  • Google Chrome
  • Mozilla Firefox
  • Safari

Please note that if you choose to block cookies, you may not be able to use the full functionality of our website.
