permanent cookies: stored in the memory of the user’s end device and which remain there until deleted or until their expiry. The mechanism of permanent cookies does not allow collection of any personal data or any confidential information from a user’s computer.

3.3. The Controller uses own cookies for the purpose of:

authentication of the user in the Online Store and ensuring a user session in the Online Store (after logging in), thanks to which the user does not have to re-enter the login and password on each subpage of the Online Store;

The IP address number allows access to the Internet. In most cases, it is assigned to a computer dynamically, i.e., it changes with each Internet connection and for this reason it is commonly treated as non-personally identifiable information. The IP address is used by the Controller for diagnosing server technical problems, creating statistical analyses (e.g. determining which regions generate the highest number of visits), as information useful for administration and improvement of the Online Store and the Website, as well as for security purposes and possible identification of server-overloading, unwanted automatic software for browsing the contents of the Online Store and the Website.
