What are cookies?
Small temporary text files that are stored on your computer or mobile device to ensure the proper functioning of a website. These files contain information about the websites you have visited.

They are also used for other purposes, such as helping website owners gain more insights into visitor interests.
How do we use cookies?
SIA 'SOL 1' uses Google Analytics services to make information about services available in web searches. This service involves storing cookies on your device. The cookie records that you visited our website, when it happened, remembers the user's IP address, and tracks which sections of the website were viewed. This information is transmitted to Google Inc. (Ireland) and stored on Google servers (in the European Union and the US) for 60 days. Before transmitting data to Google, IP addresses are anonymized by replacing them with a unique code assigned to each individual user. Google ensures that data processing, including data transfer to third parties, complies with European Union and US regulatory requirements. Additionally, Google states that the received data is not used for providing Google services. You can prevent cookies from being sent to Google by using the 'Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on' (view Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on).
How to control cookies?
You can delete cookies from your computer or other device, as well as use settings provided by most browsers to prevent cookie creation.
Almost all browsers allow you to:
- View and delete stored cookies;
- Block cookies from third parties;
- Block cookies from marketing websites;
- Block all cookie creation;
- Delete all cookies when exiting the browser.
Keep in mind that deleting all cookies will also erase your settings on certain websites. Additionally, if you block all cookies, many websites (including ours) may stop functioning correctly, and some services may be disrupted. For this reason, we do not recommend choosing the option to block all cookies.
