Cookie Policy
In compliance with personal data protection legislation (including international legislation such as the GDPR), the website ensures the security of your data.
This website uses cookies, and this section explains in detail what they are used for and how you can control, allow, or delete them.
Our website https://kyivhistorymuseum.org.ua/
(hereinafter — the “Website”) uses cookies and other related technologies (for convenience, all such technologies are referred to as “cookies”). Cookies may also be placed by third parties engaged by us. In the document below, we inform you about the use of cookies on our Website.
What is a cookie file?
A cookie is a small piece of data containing a unique identifier that is sent by a website’s server to the browser on your computer or other device and stored on the hard drive of that computer or device. Cookies are typically used to support authenticated sessions or to configure a personalized interface — such as font size, color scheme, website language, and other preferences — that allows saving your settings and generally ensuring a more comfortable browsing experience.
Each website or third-party service provider used by the website may send its own cookies to your browser, if your browser allows it; however, for the purpose of personal data protection, a web browser permits a website or third-party service provider to access only those cookies that were previously sent by that particular website or provider. Cookies contain anonymous information — a unique identifier, the website’s name, and certain numerical or statistical data. This allows the website to remember your preferences.
There are several types of cookies depending on their duration (temporary or session cookies, which are automatically deleted after the website is closed; or persistent cookies, which remain active for a set period of time unless that period expires or the user manually deletes them) and their association with a specific domain or group of domains (i.e., the top-level domain).
In any case, the use of cookies cannot harm your computer or your data! Storing them on your device is safe.
What are scripts?
A script is a piece of program code used to ensure the proper and interactive run of our website. This code is executed either on our server or on your device.
What is a web beacon?
A web beacon (or pixel tag) is a small, invisible piece of text or image on a website used to monitor website traffic. Various data about you may be collected through web beacons for this purpose.
What is a browser?
A browser is an application that allows you to view websites on the Internet. Some of the most popular browsers include Chrome, Internet Explorer, Opera, Firefox, and Safari. Most browsers are secure and allow you to easily and quickly delete information such as cookies.
You can choose how cookies are used on your device by changing your browser settings. The most common browsers allow you to manage cookies in the following ways:
- a) accept all cookies;
b) notify you when cookies are being used;
c) refuse cookies (if you choose to refuse cookies, the website may stop running properly and may not be able to provide services in full).
Each browser has its own features, so we recommend checking the browser’s help section for more detailed information on configuring and using cookies.
