1. Cookie Usage Policy

1.1. About Cookies
Websites use smart and useful methods to enhance their convenience and make them as interesting as possible for every visitor. One of the best-known methods involves cookies. Website owners or third parties, such as advertisers who advertise on the website you visit, use cookies.

Cookies are small text files that websites save on users’ computers. The information in cookies can also be used to track your browsing across various websites that use the same cookie.

Cookies are categorized by duration and by who sets them.

We believe it is important to inform you about the cookies used by our website and the purposes for which they are used. The aim of informing is threefold – we want to ensure your privacy, convenience, and the development of our website as best as possible. This explanation provides more information about the cookies used on our website and their purposes.

2. How UAB Žybartuva and Brand Websites Use Cookies
   UAB Žybartuva uses cookies to collect statistical data on visitors and to record information about your preferences when browsing websites. Our goal in using cookies is to improve your experience as a visitor to the website.
3. Cookies and Their Functions
   Different types of cookies are used for different purposes.
   Below is a list of the most common types of cookies and an explanation of what they are used for.

3.1. Session Cookies
A session cookie is temporarily stored in your computer’s memory while you are browsing a website, for example, to track which language you have selected. Session cookies are not stored long-term in your computer’s memory; they always disappear when you close your web browser.

3.2. Persistent or Tracking Cookies
A persistent cookie saves a file on your computer for a long period; this type of cookie has an expiration date. Persistent cookies help websites remember your information and settings when you visit in the future. This results in faster and more convenient access, as you do not need to log in again, for example.

Once the expiration date is reached, the cookie is automatically deleted when you return to the website that created it.

3.3. First-Party Cookies
These are set by the website itself (same domain as the browser’s address bar) and can only be read by that site. These cookies are generally used to store information such as your preferences for use when you visit the site again.

3.4. Third-Party Cookies
These are set by different names (domains) than the one shown in the browser’s address bar, i.e., not by the owners of the website you are visiting.

These cookies, for example, are used to collect information for advertising and user content. Third-party cookies can also be used to collect statistical data.

Since third-party cookies can create more comprehensive surveys of users’ browsing habits, they are considered more sensitive to visitors, so most web browsers allow you to adjust settings to not accept third-party cookies.

3.5. Flash Cookies
Flash cookies (local shared objects) are data elements that websites using Adobe Flash can store on your computer.

Flash cookies are a new way of tracking your visits and storing more information about you than regular cookies. One of the main disadvantages of flash cookies is that you cannot find them in your browser. They do not appear in the list of cookies you see when you view cookies currently stored in your web browser. Regular HTTP cookies cannot store more than 4 kilobytes of data, whereas flash cookies can store up to 100 kilobytes.

The technical design of flash cookies is similar to other cookies. Almost all web browsers have a Flash player used to display Flash presentations. A well-known example of Flash presentations is the video player on the YouTube video site. (Flash cookies are not only associated with YouTube but apply to all websites using flash cookies.)

Flash cookies do not have a time limit. They will remain until they are removed.

3.5.1. How to Disable Flash Cookies
Flash cookies cannot be blocked or managed in your browser because they are stored elsewhere – in the Adobe website’s online settings manager for shared storage settings.

The settings manager can be accessed on the Adobe website, but it operates locally on your computer. The web storage settings show all the flash cookies currently stored on your computer. You can remove flash cookies from individual sites or all at once. You can also increase or decrease the kilobyte size of all the information stored on your computer.

Flash cookies will not be stored if you disable the option “Allow third-party Flash content to store data on your computer” in the shared storage settings.

If you want to disable flash cookies on individual sites, you can do so in the settings manager.

If you want websites to completely avoid placing cookies on your computer, you can adjust your browser settings so that you are notified before any cookie is placed. You can also adjust your settings so that your browser rejects all cookies or only third-party cookies. Similarly, you can remove your cookies that have already been placed on your computer. Note that you will need to adjust the settings separately for each browser and computer you use.

Please note that if you do not want cookies, we cannot ensure that our website will function properly. Some site features may be lost, and you may no longer see some websites. Additionally, rejecting cookies does not necessarily mean you will not see any advertisements. It means that advertisements will no longer be tailored to your interests and will be repeated more often.

Each browser has a different method for adjusting settings. If necessary, use your browser’s help function to properly adjust the settings.

For more detailed information on disabling cookies on your mobile phone, refer to your phone’s manual.

5. Other / Unspecified Cookies

   Therefore, if you encounter such cookies on our website that we have not previously mentioned, please inform us. Alternatively, contact the relevant third party directly and ask what cookies they have placed, why they do so, the duration of the cookie’s use, and how they ensure your privacy.
