This policy applies to cookies and websites operated by SCEENA K d.o.o., with its registered office at Štekličeva 6, 3000 Celje, Slovenia (hereinafter referred to as SCEENA K d.o.o.).
1. What are Cookies?
A cookie is a small file of letters and numbers stored on your computer, mobile terminal, or any other device through which a user accesses a website. This cookie is placed at the request of a web browser (such as Internet Explorer, Chrome) and is completely "passive" (it does not contain software, viruses, or spyware and cannot access information on the user's hard drive).
2. What are Cookies Used for?
These files enable the recognition of a user's device and the presentation of content in a suitable manner, tailored to the user's preferences. Cookies provide users with a good browsing experience and support our efforts to offer them the best service. For example, we may store your online privacy settings or display relevant advertisements based on your preferences. They are also used to compile aggregated, anonymous statistical data that helps us understand how users interact with our websites, enabling us to improve their structure and content, without personally identifying the user.
3. Why are Cookies Important?
Cookies are a central part of the effective relationship between a website and a user, helping to create a friendly browsing experience tailored to the preferences and interests of each individual. If you reject or disable cookies, the use of certain websites may be impossible.
Furthermore, rejecting or disabling cookies does not mean that you will not receive online advertisements – however, your browsing preferences and interests will not be tracked, so your ads will be displayed randomly.
4. What Types of Cookies Do We Use?
We use two types of cookies: session cookies and persistent cookies. Session cookies are temporary files that remain on the user's device until the end of the session or the application (web browser) is closed. Persistent cookies remain on the user's device for a period specified in the cookie parameters or until the user manually deletes them.

7. Do Cookies Process Personal Data?
A cookie may not require the use of personal data and, in most cases, does not allow for the personal identification of internet users. Personal data collected through the use of cookies may only be collected to enable specific user functions. This data is encrypted in a way that prevents unauthorized persons from accessing it.
8. Delete Cookies
The application used to access websites usually allows cookies to be stored on the device by default. These settings can be changed so that the web browser blocks the automatic management of cookies or so that the user is informed each time cookies are sent to their device. Detailed information about the options and ways to manage cookies can be found in the application (web browser) settings. Limiting the use of cookies may affect some website functions.
9. Security and Privacy Issues
Cookies are NOT viruses! They use a plain text format. They are not composed of code parts, so they cannot be executed or automatically run. Consequently, they cannot duplicate or replicate themselves on other networks to run again or duplicate themselves. Since they cannot perform these functions, they cannot be considered viruses.
In general, browsers have built-in privacy settings that provide different levels of cookie acceptance, expiration periods, and automatic deletion after a user's website visit.
10. Cookie Recommendations
Due to their flexibility and the fact that most of the most visited and largest websites use cookies, they are almost unavoidable. If you disable cookies, the user will not be able to access the most popular and used websites, including YouTube, Gmail, Yahoo, and others.
Here are some tips to help you navigate securely while using cookies:
- Adjust your browser's cookie settings to reflect an appropriate level of cookie security.
- If cookies do not bother you and you are the only person using your computer, you can set expiration dates for storing browsing history and personal data.
- If you share computer access with others, you might consider a browser setting that deletes individual browsing data each time the browser is closed. This is a way to access websites that place cookies and delete all visitor data when you close your browsing session.
- Install and regularly update your anti-spyware programs.
- Many anti-spyware detection and prevention applications include website attack detection. This prevents the browser from accessing websites that could exploit browser vulnerabilities or download dangerous software.
- Ensure your browser is always updated. Many cookie-related attacks exploit weaknesses in older browser versions.
11. What Happens if You Reject, Block, or Remove Cookies?
To use certain parts of our website, you must accept cookies. If you choose not to agree to the use of cookies or later block or delete them, some aspects of our website may not function correctly, and you may not be able to access all or part of our website.
