Cookie policy
This Cookie Policy was last updated on Wednesday, 05 October 2022
We welcome you to QDOS, our website and shop at www.qdossound.com (“our Services) operated by Reso Ltd trading as QDOS. In the below Cookie Policy, we inform you about the use of cookies on our website.
Why do we ask for Consent and why do we have a Cookie Policy?
The provision of information about our use of cookies is required and set out in the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR) the UK`s Data Protection Act 2018 (DPA) and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Usually, when you visit our website for the first time, you are asked if you want to allow cookies. And of course, this decision is also stored in a cookie.
What are cookies and why we use them?
A cookie is a simple small file that is sent with the pages of an Internet address and can be stored by the web browser on the PC or device. The information stored in it may be sent to our or relevant third-party servers during subsequent visits.
To obtain information about the use of our web sites, we use cookies. Whenever you browse the Internet, you use a browser. Most websites store small text files in your browser. These files are called cookies.
These cookie files are automatically placed in the cookie folder, effectively the "brain" of your browser. A cookie consists of a name and a value. When defining a cookie, one or more attributes must also be specified.
Cookies store certain user data about you, such as language or personal page settings. When you return to our site, your browser transmits the "user-related" information back to our site. Thanks to cookies, our site knows who you are and offers you your usual default setting.
There are two classes of cookies, namely first-party cookies, and third-party cookies.
First-party cookies are created directly by our website, whereas third-party cookies are created by a partner website.
Each cookie stores different data, has a lifespan (that can vary from a few minutes to a few years) and thus must be assessed on individual basis. Because of that there are several types of cookies.
The least privacy invasive type of cookies are Essential or Necessary cookies. These cookies are essential or necessary to ensure that a website works properly and is secure so that you can navigate a website and use its features. Without these cookies, certain features of a website would not function, and thus you would not be able to use certain services.
There are also Functional cookies or sometimes called convenience cookies. These cookies allow a website to remember the options a user has made (including user ID`s stored, consents given, or languages selected) and other personalisation options you have selected when browsing.
Further there are also Analysis and performance cookies, which are used to monitor and improve the function and service of a website. Those can track down problems when using a website, facilitate online surveys, record visitor numbers, and provide analytics metrics.
Lastly, advertising cookies or targeting cookies. They are used to deliver customised advertising to the user. This can be very convenient, but also very annoying.
