Types of cookies
There are different types of cookies. They all work the same way, but have slight differences:
· Session cookies. Session cookies last as long as the user’s visit and are deleted when the user closes their browser. Their main purpose is to identify the type of device and reinforce the security of the website and its basic functionality. They do not contain any personal information.
· Persistent or permanent cookies. These are stored on the device’s hard drive and our website reads them every time the user makes a new visit to https://www.itene.com. They have a specific expiry date, after which they cease to function. They help us understand how users reach our site, analyse their visits, identify their actions and preferences, and improve our services.
· Functional cookies. These cookies help https://www.itene.com to remember decisions made by users, such as their login or identifier. The information these cookies collect is anonymous (i.e., it does not contain any user names, address or any other personal information).
· Third-party cookies. Third-party cookies are installed by a website that is not the one the user is visiting; for example, those used by social networks (such as Facebook) or by additional external content (such as Google Maps). Some advertisers also use these types of files to track your visits to the sites they advertise on.
· Analytical cookies. The aim of these cookies is to ensure regular maintenance as well as the best performance and service for users, by collecting data on their activities.

Own cookies
In order to recognise you and provide you with a better service, our site uses its own cookies (small text files that your browser stores). The advantages of accepting our cookies mean that you save time. They can also be used to recognise you from one visit to another and thus adapt the content shown to you, obtain information about the date and time of your last visit, measure traffic parameters on the site itself, and to estimate the number of visits made, so that we can focus and adjust services and promotions more effectively.
Cookies do not give us access to your phone number, email address or any other means of contact. Cookies cannot retrieve information from your hard drive or steal personal information.
