The Trustec Unipessoal, Lda. websites uses cookies. Cookies are text files that are stored on a computer system via an Internet browser.
Many Internet sites and servers use cookies. Many cookies contain a so-called cookie ID. A cookie ID is a unique identifier of the cookie. It consists of a string of characters through which Internet pages and servers can be assigned to the specific Internet browser in which the cookie was stored. This allows the websites and Internet servers visited to differentiate the individual browser of the data subject from other Internet browsers that contain other cookies. A specific Internet browser can be recognised and identified using the unique cookie ID.
Through the use of cookies, Trustec Unipessoal, Lda. can provide users of this website with more user-friendly services that would not be possible without the setting of cookies.
By using a cookie, information and offers on the website can be optimised with the user in mind. Cookies allow us, as mentioned above, to recognise the users of our website. The purpose of this recognition is to make it easier for users to utilise our website. The user of the website that uses cookies, for example, does not have to enter access data each time the website is accessed, because these are taken over by the website, and the cookie is thus stored on the user’s computer system. Another example is a shopping basket cookie in an online shop. The online shop remembers the items that a customer has placed in the virtual shopping basket via a cookie.
The data subject can, at any time, prevent the setting of cookies via our website by means of a corresponding setting of the Internet browser used, and can thus permanently deny the setting of cookies. In addition, cookies that have already been set can be deleted at any time via an Internet browser or other software programmes. This is possible in all popular Internet browsers. If the data subject deactivates the setting of cookies in the Internet browser used, some functions of our website may be impaired.
