O piškotkih
Piškotki niso nič novega, vsi obiskovalci spletnih strani imamo na svojih računalnikih, tablicah, mobitelih shranjenih že veliko piškotkov z različnih spletnih strani. Novo je zgolj to, da z novo zakonodajo (ZEKom-1) prihaja do sprememb glede obveščanja oz. soglašanja obiskovalcev z njihovo uporabo.
Kaj so piškotki?
So male besedilne datoteke, ki jih večina spletnih mest shrani v naprave, s katerimi uporabniki dostopajo do interneta z namenom prepoznavanja posameznih naprav, ki so jih uporabniki uporabili pri dostopu. Njihovo shranjevanje je pod popolnim nadzorom brskalnika, ki ga ima uporabnik – ta lahko shranjevanje piškotkov po želji omeji ali onemogoči. Piškotki niso škodljivi in so vedno časovno omejeni.
Zakaj so piškotki potrebni?
So temeljnega pomena za zagotavljanje uporabniku prijaznih spletnih storitev. Interakcija med spletnim uporabnikom in spletnim mestom je s pomočjo piškotkov hitrejša in enostavnejša. Z njihovo pomočjo si spletno mesto zapomni posameznikove preference in izkušnje, s tem je prihranjen čas, brskanje po spletnih mestih pa bolj učinkovito in prijazno.
