Cookie Policy

1. What are cookies , what are they for?

In 1994 Lou Montulli, an employee of Nestcape, had the idea of using cookies to overcome the limits which prevented the computers linked to a webpage from being identified. Without cookies websites may not recognized whether two requests come from the same device, for this purpose to each cookie is given a string device or label.

Cookies are stored in the user's computer hard disk or in the  computer memory. Cookies are a small text file sent from  the web server (web server is the computer that hosted the website you are browsing in ) to the user's browser (Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, etc.), cookies are stored in your device  when you visit a website like Litostil. Cookies let you navigate between the pages efficiently and improve browsing performances. Cookies are used for web analytics and intelligence and provide Litostil with information to tailor and improve your experience saving your interests and your browsing.

Cookies are used by most websites as well as our website www.hamzones.com (Website).

Once  the cookie has been stored in the computer, it may be read only by the web site that has created it ( therefore  by www.hamzones.com in our case).
