(5.) In addition to the above categories, Guh may also use cookies to manage its e-commerce website and record your activity on the site, in order to provide services more tailored to your needs. A cookie allows the website server to recognize user data. Normally, when a webpage is loaded, the server cannot identify whether or when a user has previously visited. Therefore, when browsing, the server writes a small piece of information via the browser into the user’s hard drive. The next time the browser requests a webpage, it will send the cookie data back to the server, enabling the server to identify the user and analyze visit data. This allows the website to respond with tailored actions or information based on different reader preferences. Guh will write and read cookies in your browser under the following circumstances:
- To provide better and more personalized services, and to facilitate your participation in interactive activities, such as storing your preferred settings in specific areas or saving your password so that you do not need to re-enter it each time you visit the Guh website.
- To count the number of visitors and analyze browsing patterns in order to understand website usage, serving as a reference for improving Guh’s services. If you choose to reject all cookies, you may not be able to use certain personalized services or participate in some activities. You can adjust your browser settings to determine the level of cookie acceptance, including accepting all cookies, receiving notifications when cookies are set, or rejecting all cookies.
- In addition, Guh will retain relevant records automatically generated by the server when users browse or search online, including IP address, usage time, browser type, and data viewed or clicked. This information is used solely for aggregate analysis of website traffic and online behavior, to help improve the quality of Guh’s services.
