ScentsNova uses cookies. By using our website and agreeing to this policy, you consent to the use of our cookies in accordance with the terms outlined here.
What are Cookies
Cookies are small files, often with unique identifiers, that are sent to web browsers from a web server and can be returned to the server each time the browser requests a page.
Cookies allow web servers to identify and track users as they navigate different pages on a website, as well as to recognize returning users.
There are two main types of cookies: persistent cookies and session cookies. A persistent cookie is a text file sent by a web server to a web browser, which is saved by the browser and remains valid until its set expiration date (unless deleted by the user before that date). In contrast, a session cookie will end when the session is closed, meaning the web browser is closed.
