Cookies are used for the following purposes:
- for the functioning of the site,
- for analysing the behaviour of site visitors,
- for advertising.
This policy is complemented by our policy on personal data protection in general which you can find here and by the Site Terms and Conditions which you can find here, which we encourage you to read, which include useful additional information, including on the Data Protection Officer, all purposes of data processing by CREATIVE DATA SRL, your rights and their exceptions and limitations, etc.

- What are cookies?
A cookie is a small file of letters and numbers that will be stored on a user’s computer, mobile device or other equipment from which the internet is accessed. The cookie is installed by a request from the user’s terminal to a server of the leadupcentral.eu website or to a third party server.
- What are cookies used for?
These files mainly make it possible to recognise the user’s terminal and present content in a relevant way, tailored to the user’s preferences.
Cookies provide users with a pleasant browsing experience and support our efforts to provide more tailored services to users, e.g. online privacy preferences or relevant advertising. They are also used in the preparation of aggregated anonymous statistics that help us understand how a user benefits from our web pages, allowing us to improve their structure and content, without personally identifying the user.
- What cookies do we use?
We use two types of cookies: per session and fixed. Per-session cookies are temporary files that remain on the user’s terminal until the session ends or the application is closed. Fixed cookies remain on the user’s terminal for a period determined by the cookie settings or until they are manually deleted by the user.
How cookies are used by this site
?
A visit to this site may place the following types of cookies:
- cookies strictly necessary for the functioning of the site
- analytics cookies
- advertising cookies
Cookies and/or similar technologies that are strictly necessary are essential for the proper functioning of the site and are set on your device when you access the site or as a result of actions performed on the site, as appropriate. You can set your browser to block cookies, but in this case some parts of the site will not function properly.
- Do cookies or similar technologies contain personal data?
Cookies or similar technologies themselves do not require personal information in order to be used, and in many cases do not personally identify Internet users. However, there are situations where personal data may be collected through the use of cookies to facilitate certain functionality for the user or to provide the user with an experience more tailored to their preferences. Such data is encrypted in a way that makes it impossible for unauthorised persons to access it.
What are similar technologies?
There are other technologies that can be used for the same purposes as cookies.
This site uses Local Storage as a similar technology.

- Managing preferences regarding the placement of cookies
In general, an application used to access web pages allows cookies and/or similar technologies to be saved on the terminal by default. These are stored for the periods described in the table in section 11 below. These settings can be changed in such a way that automatic cookie management is blocked by the web browser or the user is informed each time cookies are sent to their terminal.
Detailed information about the possibilities and ways to manage cookies can be found in the settings area of the application (web browser). Limiting the use of cookies may affect certain functionalities of the website.
- Why are cookies and/or similar technologies important for the Internet?
Cookies and/or similar technologies are central to the efficient functioning of the Internet, helping to generate a user-friendly browsing experience tailored to each user’s preferences and interests. Denying or disabling cookies may make some sites or parts of sites unusable.
Disabling cookies does not mean that you will no longer receive legally compliant online advertising – just that it will no longer be able to take into account your preferences and interests as evidenced by your browsing behaviour.
Examples of important uses of cookies (which do not require a user to log in via an account):
- Content and services tailored to user preferences – product and service categories.
- Offers tailored to users’ interests
- Password retention
- Retain child protection filters on Internet content (family mode options, safe search functions).
- Limiting ad frequency – limiting the number of times an ad is shown to a particular user on a site.
- Providing relevant advertising to the user.
- Measuring, optimising and tailoring analytics features – such as confirming a certain level of traffic to a website, what type of content is being viewed and how a user gets to a website (e.g. via search engines, directly, from other websites, etc.). Websites conduct these analyses of usage to improve their services for the benefit of users.
- Security and privacy issues
Browsers generally have built-in privacy settings that provide different levels of cookie acceptance, validity period and automatic deletion after the user has visited a particular site.
Other security issues related to cookies:
- Customise your browser settings for cookies to reflect a level of cookie security that is comfortable for you.
- If you are the only person using your computer, you can set long expiry times for storing browsing history and personal access data if you wish.
- If you share access to your computer, you may consider setting your browser to delete individual browsing data each time you close the browser. This is a way to access sites that place cookies and delete any visitor information when you close your browsing session.
