This Cookie Policy explains how Aussie Explorer ("we," "our," or "us") uses cookies and similar technologies on our website holodnaya-vishnya.com ("Website"). This policy provides you with information about how we use cookies, what types of cookies we use, and how you can control them.

2. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (computer, tablet, smartphone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, provide a better user experience, and provide information to the website owners.

Cookies allow a website to recognize your device and remember information about your visit, such as your preferred language, font size, and other preferences. They can also help with analyzing website traffic and displaying relevant advertisements.

Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, Aussie Explorer) are called "first-party cookies." Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called "third-party cookies." Third-party cookies enable features or functionality provided by third parties, such as advertising, interactive content, and analytics.
