Cookie Policy (EU)

This Cookie Policy was last updated on December 18, 2020 and applies to citizens of the European Economic Zone.

1. introduction

Our website, https://option.news (hereinafter: "The Website") uses cookies and similar technologies (for the sake of simplicity, all these are grouped under "Cookies"). Cookies are also placed by third parties appointed by us. In the document below we inform you about the use of cookies on our website.

2. What are cookies

A cookie is a simple small file that can be shared with the pages of an Internet address and stored by the web browser on the PC or other device. The information stored in it may be sent to our third-party servers or servers during subsequent visits.

3. What are scripts?

A script is a piece of program code that is used to enable our website functionality and interactivity. This code will run on our servers or on your device.

4. What is a web beacon?

A web beacon (also known as a pixel tag) is a small invisible text fragment or image on a web site used to monitor traffic on the web site. In order to make this possible, various data are stored by you using web beacons.

5. Cookies

5.1 Technical or functional cookies

Some cookies ensure that parts of our website work properly and your user preferences are known. By placing functional cookies we make it easier for you to visit our website. That way, when you visit our website, you do not have to repeatedly enter the same information, or your items will remain in your shopping cart until you pay. We may place these cookies without your consent.

5.2 analytic cookies

Because statistics are collected anonymously, no permission is required to place analytical cookies.

5.3 Marketing / tracking cookies

Marketing / tracking cookies are cookies or some other form of local storage that are used to create user profiles, to display advertisements or to track the user on this website or across websites for similar marketing purposes.

5.4 Social Media Button

On our website we have added buttons for Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, WhatsApp, Instagram, Disqus and Pinterest to promote websites (e.g. “Like”, “Pin”) or to share (e.g. “Tweets”) in social networks such as Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, WhatsApp, Instagram, Disqus and Pinterest. These buttons use a code that comes from Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, WhatsApp, Instagram, Disqus and Pinterest themselves. This code places cookies. These “social media buttons” can store and process certain information so that personalized advertising is displayed to you.

Please read the privacy policy of these social networks (which can change regularly) to find out how they handle your (personal) data that they process using these cookies. The data accessed is anonymized as much as possible. Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, WhatsApp, Instagram, Disqus and Pinterest are based in the United States
