Cookies policy
A cookie is a small piece of text sent to your browser by a website you visit. It helps the website to remember information about your visit, like your preferred language and other settings. That can make your next visit easier and the site more useful to you. Cookies play an important role. Without them, using the web would be a much more frustrating experience.
We use cookies for many purposes. We use them, for example, to remember your safe search preferences, to make the ads you see more relevant to you, to count how many visitors we receive to a page, to help you sign up for our services and to protect your data.
Our Privacy Policy explains how we protect your privacy when using cookies and other information by Eben-Ezer Logistics SRL headquartered in 35 Grigore Alexandrescu street, ap. 46, Cluj-Napoca, Cluj, Romania and by Eben-Ezer Trans SRL headquartered in 287A Principala street, 427240 Rebrisoara, Bistrita-Nasaud, Romania hereinafter referred to as Eben-Ezer Logistics
Managing cookies in your browser
Some people prefer not to allow cookies, which is why most browsers give you the ability to manage cookies to suit you.
In some browsers you can set up rules to manage cookies on a site-by-site basis, giving you more fine-grained control over your privacy. What this means is that you can disallow cookies from all sites except those that you trust, including data stored on your device by Adobe Flash Player (also known as Flash cookies).
You can learn how to delete cookies or set your browser to not accept cookies using the information presented here: How to enable or disable cookies?
How we use cookies in advertising
With cookies, advertising is more effective. Without cookies, it’s more difficult for an advertiser to reach out to the public or to find out how many ads were displayed and how many clicks were recorded.
Numerous websites, for example, news sites and blogs, work with us to display ads to users. In collaboration with our partners, cookies can be used for a variety of reasons. For example, to avoid endless ad serving, to detect and stop click fraud and to display ads that may be more relevant (such as the ads displayed on the websites you have access).
A record of your actions is stored in our server logs. These server logs typically include web request, IP address, browser type, browser language, date and time of request, and one or more cookies that can identify the browser exactly. We store these data for several reasons, of which the most important are the improvement of services and the security of our systems. We anonymize this log data by removing the information associated with cookies after 18 months.
How Eben-Ezer Logistics and its partners use the data when using the website or its applications
The www.ebenezerlogistics.com website uses third-party technology, such as Google or Facebook, to improve its content.
When you visit a site that uses advertising products (such as AdSense), social products (such as the +1 button or Facebook) or analytics tools (Google Analytics), the web browser automatically sends certain information to third parties. This information includes, for example, the address of the web page you access and the IP address. These third parties can also set browser cookies or read those already stored there.
Similarly, our partners applications can send information such as the name of the application and an identifier that helps our partners determine which ads have been running on other apps on the device.
How Eben-Ezer Logistics and its partners use the information sent by the browser
Eben-Ezer Logistics can use the information you receive whenever you access sites or applications that use its technologies, for example:
- To increase the efficiency of ads;
- Reports on ad activity;
- To understand how users interact with the site and the applications they use;
- To improve your experience on www.ebenezerlogistics.com;
- Detect fraud and other security risks and protect against users and partners against them;
- Respect legal obligations;
- We improve our own products and services.
Other technologies used in advertising
Our advertising systems can use other technologies, including Flash and HTML5, for features such as displaying interactive ad formats. We can use the IP address, for example, to identify your overall location. We can also select ads based on information about the computer or device you are using, for example, your device model, browser type, or device sensors, such as the accelerometer.
- Location
Our ad products can receive or deduct location information from different sources. For example, you can use the IP address to determine your approximate location, the mobile device can transmit your exact location, it can deduce the location from the search queries, and the sites or apps you use can send information about your location. We use location information in ad products to improve the relevancy of posted ads, to measure ad performance, and to report advertiser anonymous statistics.
- Advertising identifiers on mobile devices
In order to run ads on non-cookies (for example, in mobile applications), Eben-Ezer Logistics can use technologies that perform functions similar to those of cookies. To opt out of interest-based ads, follow the instructions below for your mobile device.
How do you determine what information and ads are displayed?
Ad displayed is chosen based on many decisions.
Sometimes the ad is based on your location. Usually, the IP address is a good indicator of the approximate location. So, you may see on the You Tube homepage an ad that promotes a movie that will be launched in your country.
Sometimes the ad you see is based on the context of a page. If you look at a page with advices about transport, you may see ads for freight forwarders.
Sometimes, the announcement you see on a page is broadcast by Eben-Ezer Logistics, but is selected by another company. For example, you may have registered on a partner’s website. From the information you’ve specified on that partner’s site, he can decide which ads to display and use the Eben-Ezer Logistics ad serving products to submit those ads.
Why do Eben-Ezer Logistics ads appear for products I’ve looked at?
It is possible to display ads for products you’ve previously forgotten in a process called remarketing. Suppose you access a website that rent warehouses, but do not rent space in that warehouse at the first visit. The site owner may wish to encourage you to return and complete the purchase. Eben-Ezer Logistics offers services by which site operators can direct ads to those who have visited their pages.
For this, Eben-Ezer Logistics either reads a cookie already in the browser, or places a cookie in the browser when you access the warehouse website (assuming the browser allows it).
When you visit another site that works with us, which may have nothing to do with shipping, you may see ads for those warehouses. This is because the browser sends the same cookie to ebenezerlogistics.com. In turn, ebenezerlogistics.com can use that cookie to run an ad that encourages you to rent that warehouse.
Later when you search for warehouses for your merchandise on www.ebenezerlogistics.com, we can display personalized ads based on the warehouses rentals website you have accessed.
There are some remarketing restrictions. For example, Eben-Ezer Logistics does not allow advertisers to engage in remarketing based on sensitive information such as health or religious beliefs.
Types of cookies used
We use different types of cookies to run Eben-Ezer Logistics websites and ads-related products. Some or all of the cookies identified below may be stored in your browser. You can view and manage cookies in your browser (though browsers for mobile devices may not offer this visibility).
- Preferences
These cookies allow our websites to remember information that changes the way the site behaves or looks, such as your preferred language or the region you are in. For instance, by remembering your region, a website may be able to provide you with local weather reports or traffic news. These cookies can also assist you in changing text size, font, and other parts of web pages that you can personalize.
Loss of the information stored in a preference cookie may make the website experience less functional but should not prevent it from working.
- Security
We use security cookies to authenticate users, prevent fraudulent use of login credentials, and protect user data from unauthorized parties.
- Processes
Process cookies help make the website work and deliver services that the website visitor expects, like navigating around web pages or accessing secure areas of the website. Without these cookies, the website cannot function properly.
- Advertising
We use cookies to make advertising more engaging to users and more valuable to publishers and advertisers. Some common applications of cookies are to select advertising based on what’s relevant to a user; to improve reporting on campaign performance; and to avoid showing ads the user has already seen.
We also use cookies for advertising we serve across the web. Our main advertising cookie on websites that not belong to Eben-Ezer Logistics is named ‘id’ or ‘IDE‘ and is stored in browsers under the domain doubleclick.net. We use other cookies with names such as DSID, FLC, AID, TAID, and exchange_uid.
Sometimes a cookie serves purposes such as measuring interactions with the ads on that domain and preventing the same ads from being shown to you too many times.
Eben-Ezer Logistics also uses conversion cookies, whose main purpose is to help advertisers determine how many times people who click on their ads end up purchasing their products. These cookies allow Eben-Ezer Logistics and the advertiser to determine that you clicked the ad and later visited the advertiser’s site. Conversion cookies are not used by us for personalized ad targeting and persist for a limited time only.
- Session State
Websites often collect information about how users interact with a website. This may include the pages users visit most often and whether users get error messages from certain pages. We use these so-called ‘session state cookies’ to help us improve our services, in order to improve our users’ browsing experience. Blocking or deleting these cookies will not render the website unusable.
These cookies may also be used to anonymously measure the effectiveness of PPC (pay per click) and affiliate advertising.
- Google Analytics
Google Analytics is Eben-Ezer Logistics’s analytics tool that helps to understand how visitors engage with our website. It may use a set of cookies to collect information and report website usage statistics without personally identifying individual visitors to Eben-Ezer Logistics. The main cookie used by Google Analytics is the ‘__ga’ cookie.
In addition to reporting website usage statistics, Google Analytics can also be used, together with some of the advertising cookies described above, to help show more relevant ads on www.ebenezerlogistics.com and across the web.
