This Policy is for the blog.moderncosyhome.co.uk.
This policy refers to cookies and web pages operated by Modern Cosy Home LTD, whose registered office is in Corby, United Kingdom.
2. What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small text file, generally consisting of identifiers, website names, letters and numbers, which the user, when browsing the web page through a web browser (e.g., Internet Explorer, Chrome, Safari, etc.), can allow or not allow to be installed by storing it on the computer, mobile terminal or other equipment used by them. The cookie file is passive (it does not contain software programs, viruses or spyware and cannot access information on the user’s hard drive).
3. What are cookies used for?
These files make it possible to recognise the user’s terminal and present them with content adapted to their preferences. Cookies ensure the user a pleasant browsing experience and support Modern Cosy Home Ltd’s efforts to provide comfortable services to the user, such as online privacy preferences, a shopping cart, and relevant advertising. Cookies are used in the preparation of anonymous aggregate statistics that help us understand how a user benefits from our web pages, allowing us to improve their structure and content.
4. What types of cookies do we use?
We use two types of cookies:
1. session – temporary files that remain on the user’s terminal until the browsing session is closed or the application (web browser) is closed.
2. persistent – files that remain on the user’s terminal for a period defined by the parameters of that cookie or until they are manually deleted by the user.
5. How are cookies used by this site?
A visit to this site may place the following types of cookies:

– Measurement, optimisation and analytics features – such as confirming a certain level of traffic on a website, what type of content is viewed, and how a user reaches a website (e.g., through search engines, directly, from other websites, etc.). Websites perform this analysis of their usage in order to improve their content for the benefit of the user.
Cookies that, from a technical point of view, are not required to be stored on the user’s terminal will only be used if the user expresses their express and unequivocal consent in relation to them by checking the categories presented.

6. What data do cookies contain?
In most cases, cookies do not directly identify Internet users but rather the terminal from which they accessed certain web pages. This data is encrypted in a way that does not allow unauthorised access by third parties.
7. Retention and deletion of cookies
In general, an application used to access web pages allows cookies to be saved on the user’s terminal by default. These settings can be modified by the user so that the automatic management of cookies is blocked by the web browser or the user is informed each time cookies are sent to his terminal.
8. Updates to the cookie policy
Altex may update this cookie policy to reflect changes to the various cookies used for operational, legal or regulatory purposes. Please read the cookie policy regularly to ensure that you are properly informed about how we use cookies. The date of this policy is updated in the header of this section.
