This document will explain what cookies are, how they work, and why they are needed. Additionally, you will learn how partners use the information about you provided by us through cookies, and more. Do not agree to the use of cookies until you have read this document, the platform's terms of use, and the privacy policy. You should also know your rights and responsibilities before giving consent to the processing of personal data. This will help you avoid misunderstandings and issues.
The school values openness and honesty toward its clients, so we never hide the fact that we use cookies on our website as well as other technologies to collect and process personal information. Furthermore, here you will learn how to change your browser settings to agree to or decline the use of cookies.
Cookies: What are they?
90% of websites use cookies, and the school is no exception. If you have never encountered them, they may be hard to understand. A cookie is a piece of data that a website sends to a user's computer. These files are typically stored on the hard drive of a computer, phone, or another internet-enabled device. Cookies should not be confused with viruses or other malicious software. Cookies simplify each of your subsequent visits to the platform. They are also used to identify the user, their registration details, settings, preferences, and to collect statistical data about users. Browsing history and preferences are stored as web beacons.
Please note that the school employs two types of cookies. The first are generated by the website you are visiting. The second are stored by our partners to tailor and display advertisements.
How does the school use cookies?
This section of the document is dedicated to the purposes of using these files. We will also briefly explain the functions of each type of cookie used on the website. We have noted only the ones we see most often, but the full list is quite extensive.
Type 1: Session cookies
The platform cannot function properly without these files. This is the only type that does not require your personal consent. The reason is that these files do not collect personal information. This type of cookie often only stores your IP address, login, password, settings, hobbies, and preferences. The collected information is necessary only to ensure our stable operation.
Type 2: Analytical cookies
These files are necessary to obtain information about your interaction with the platform. They notify us of the approximate number of people viewing our website and which sections attract the most interest. There is also a special type that stores your preferences. Both types are important and necessary.
Type 3: Advertising cookies
These are often referred to as targeted cookies because their function is not only to show you relevant ads but also to share your personal information with us. In other words, we are interested in urgent topics important to you, your music preferences, desires, and likes.
How can you change cookie settings?
By the way, you may be surprised to learn that some browsers and programs have learned to process your personal data and use cookies without your consent. Open the necessary browser settings page and adjust the settings as you see fit.
If you decide to completely refuse the use of cookies, note that this will significantly affect the platform's operation. It will be impossible to determine which specific function will stop working.
