Cookie Usage Policy of CAMPUS Research Institute

Considering the provisions of Regulation (EU) 679/2016 of the European Parliament and of the Council of the European Union of April 27, 2016, on the protection of individuals with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data, and repealing Directive 95/46/EC (General Data Protection Regulation), as well as respecting the right to private and family life, as provided in Article 26 of the Romanian Constitution, CAMPUS Research Institute has adopted this Cookie Usage Policy, which together with the Data Privacy Policy creates the framework for the proper functioning and use of the website www.campus.pub.ro.

A cookie is a special, often encoded, text that is sent to a web browser by a web server and sent back by the browser each time the website is accessed, thus allowing the identification of a user/device. A cookie consists of two parts: the name and the content or value of the cookie.

This text is passive – it does not contain software programs, viruses, or spyware and cannot access information from the user’s hard disk.

Cookies themselves do not request personal information and, in most cases, do not personally identify internet users.

2. What kind of information is collected?

The Google Analytics service is used to collect information such as the number of visitors to the site or to various pages of interest, the profile of these visitors – the IP address of a computer, the type of operating system used, the type of device from which a page was accessed, the type and version of the browser used, demographic data, if the user arrived at one of the CAMPUS Research Institute website pages by accessing an external link.

For information related to how Google Analytics collects and uses the collected data, please refer to the following web resources:

According to the mentioned Google Analytics policies: “Analytics offers the _anonymizeIp feature in the ga.js JavaScript library and ga(‘set’, ‘anonymizeIp’, true) in the analytics.js library, allowing site owners to request that all user IP addresses be hidden within the product. This feature is designed to help site owners comply with privacy policies or, in some countries, recommendations from local data protection authorities that may prevent storing the full IP address. IP anonymization/masking takes place as soon as the data is received by the Analytics collection network, before any storage or processing takes place.”

The CAMPUS Research Institute website uses this option to comply with current privacy policies.
