Cookies
Some bestdatingza.co.za services require so-called cookies to be set. bestdatingza.co.za therefore informs customers explicitly of the use of cookies.
Cookies are text snippets that are stored either for a limited time (so-called "session cookies") in a computer's temporary memory or on a computer's hard disk (so-called "persistent cookies"). Cookies contain, for example, information on users' previous access to the appropriate server, information on which offers were requested or which methods of payment were agreed during previous transactions. The main purposes of cookies are for storing personal settings on websites, to prepare specific offers to customers on the one hand and, on the other, to design the use of services to be as comfortable as possible, customers can visit these websites in this way without having to change the settings. In contrast, cookies are not used to carry out programs independently or to load viruses onto customers' computers.
bestdatingza.co.za uses sessions cookies, partner and affiliate cookies and persistent cookies.
Persistent cookies:
bestdatingza.co.za uses so-called "persistent cookies" in order to store the personal usage settings that a customer enters when using bestdatingza.co.za services. On the one hand, this ensures that customers see their personal settings whenever they return to bestdatingza.co.za websites and, on the other, it allows the automatic differentiation of the customer's membership status, whether they have already seen specific information and advertising campaigns, or have taken part in a survey. Use of persistent cookies is intended to personalise and improve bestdatingza.co.za services.
