For Lobox and its affiliated companies, being transparent, ensuring the security of personal data, and providing accurate and clear information to users and external users are primary targets, especially as stated in the principles mentioned in our community rules. The cookie policy, like other policies, is applicable to all products and services offered by Lobox. As Lobox, various data collection techniques are used on the website, Lobox applications, and other digital tools to enhance the experiences of users and external users and to deliver Lobox services more effectively. These techniques include Cookies, Session Cookies, and Persistent Cookies, Tracking Pixels, Local Storage and Web Storage methods, Mobile Device Identifiers, Activity Trackers, and Beacon Technology, among others. All these methods are used as stated in the privacy policy and are detailed in this policy.
As a natural or legal person, when you click on Lobox or similar expressions, register with Lobox, access, or use Lobox services, you consent to the use of the technologies specified in this policy for the purposes stated herein.
Cookies: Cookies are small files placed on a device, essential for the operation and features of the Lobox platform. Every browser visiting Lobox can receive cookies from Lobox or from third parties such as partners, advertisers, and service providers. When visiting sites outside Lobox, pages that display Lobox ads or contain Lobox widgets or Lobox codes, Lobox or the aforementioned third parties may place cookies on your browser. For example, by saving users' or external users' site preferences, a more personalized experience is provided to the user or external user on their next visit. Additionally, when a user or external user selects a language preference, this information is stored in a cookie, and when the user or external user returns to the site, the site automatically displays in the preferred language.
Session Cookies: Session cookies are used to temporarily store information during a single session of a user or external user on the website. These cookies are automatically deleted when the user closes the browser. The session cookies used in Lobox are active only during the current web session and typically cover a single visit to Lobox or a browser session. These cookies are designed to provide a personalized and consistent user experience throughout the session and are automatically deleted when the browser is closed.
Persistent Cookies: Persistent cookies are used to store the preferences of users or external users for an extended period and are automatically deleted after a set duration. This ensures that the preferences of users or external users are remembered on every visit to Lobox. In other words, they remain active on the device even after the session has ended, thus recognizing that the user or external user has previously logged into Lobox. This feature reduces the hassle of logging in again when re-entering Lobox and makes the usage experience smoother. Since these cookies are retained in the browser, they can be recognized by Lobox when returning to the site or visiting other sites that integrate Lobox services.
Tracking Pixels: These tracking points are tiny graphic elements located in Lobox and in email communications, sending signals to Lobox servers from these sources. These cookies provide information about the device and visit. This technology is used to understand how much interaction is shown by the user or external user to advertisements or Lobox content. Tracking points allow both Lobox and collaborating third parties to place cookies on the browser, thereby helping to further personalize the user experience. Additionally, this helps to understand how users respond to emails sent by Lobox. When Lobox sends a promotional email, these pixels inform Lobox which user opened the email and clicked on the links within, thus shaping future communication strategies more effectively.
Local Storage: Local storage is a system also used by websites or mobile applications at Lobox. However, Lobox does not commit to storing or displaying information and content published by the user or external user. Lobox allows the user to personalize their personal features, remembers the preferences of the user or external user, and makes the use of Lobox faster. As a result, whenever users and external users open the application, the preferences and progress from previous sessions are preserved. This concept can be diversified according to the usage areas specified below.
User Session Management: Websites can use local storage to manage user sessions. This allows them to store data such as login information and authentication details during user sessions.
Storing User Preferences: Websites can store user preferences such as language and theme using local storage and offer content based on these preferences.
Offline Usability: Local storage can provide offline usability by storing website content on the user's device. Users can access some content even without an internet connection.
Form Data History: Web forms can store information previously filled out by users using local storage. This prevents users from having to enter the same information repeatedly.
Data Caching: Websites can enhance performance by caching frequently accessed data in local storage. This enables pages to load faster.
Authentication and Remembering: By storing users' credentials or session keys using local storage, automatic login processes can be facilitated.
Web Storage: Similar to local storage, web storage is used to store data in users' browsers. Web storage can store more complex data structures and offers more security and a greater storage capacity compared to cookies. In Lobox, two primary web storage methods can be used to store data in users' browsers:
Local Storage: Local Storage is a type of web storage method that can be used to store data in users' browsers. This method involves data that is permanently stored in the browser. When a user visits a website, they can access and update the data stored in Local Storage. This feature can be used to preserve and utilize users' preferences, session information, or other specific data.
Session Storage: Session Storage is another web storage method that allows users to temporarily store data in their browsers. This data is only valid during the user session and is automatically deleted when the session ends. Session Storage is ideal for storing temporary information during navigation. It is used to maintain information valid throughout the user session and to easily access this information.
Mobile Device Identifiers: Mobile device identifiers allow for the tracking of users' in-app behaviors, enabling the delivery of personalized advertisements and content. If a user spends time in a specific product category, these identifiers can be used to display advertisements that are relevant to the user's interests.
Activity Trackers: These trackers monitor specific actions on the website, such as clicks and page scrolling by users. This data is used to analyze user interaction and optimize the website.
Beacon Technology: Beacons are used with mobile applications to track users' physical locations. This technology is often utilized in retail stores or at events to personalize the user experience.
Similar to the cookies mentioned above, Lobox can also use tracking technologies such as mobile advertising identifiers and tags.

Lobox places great importance on user privacy and allows users to control cookies through their browser settings. Cookies can be managed with specific controls found in the browser settings section.
Most modern browsers offer options to accept or reject cookies, or accept only certain types of cookies. This helps users customize their online experiences. While some users may choose to accept all cookies, others may prefer to accept only the necessary ones.

What is Do Not Track (DNT)?
Do Not Track (DNT) is a signal sent by internet users through their web browsers. This signal expresses the user's desire for their online activities not to be tracked or targeted for personalized ads. The DNT signal is used to specify the user's privacy preferences.
However, the DNT signal is not uniformly treated by all websites and online services. Some websites and services may choose not to track the user's online activities or provide personalized ads based on the DNT signal. However, others may ignore this signal and continue to track the user's activities and provide personalized ads. Lobox generally behaves in this manner as well.
In conclusion, the DNT signal can help users express their privacy preferences, but each website or service may treat the DNT signal differently. Users can control their privacy preferences and limit online tracking by adjusting their browser settings.
