What is written below is intended to give you the necessary and comprehensive information about the cookies that ARTstage uses on its website. We draw attention to the fact that if you share the use of your device with other persons, it is possible to change the personalized nature of the cookies.

The website uses cookies to facilitate your navigation. The following cookies are used:
- Cookies necessary for the functioning of your search, which enable you to use the basic functionalities such as "shopping basket" management and maintain your possible identification throughout the search;
- Personalization cookies that enable you to visit the Internet pages in a personalized way according to your previous visits, purchases, etc. They allow you to find the offers that suit you most quickly;

You can set your internet browser so that it does not save cookies or delete already saved ones. If you wish to take advantage of these functions, please contact the manufacturer of your Internet browser.
ARTstage is not responsible if the Internet browser you use does not support the functions of controlling the use, refusing to save or deleting saved cookies. In the event that you prohibit the storage of cookies or delete already stored ones depending on their type, it is possible to disrupt the functioning of the site.
VII. SOCIAL MEDIA
Your access to social networks such as Facebook, Google +, YouTube, Twitter and others requires separate registration and acceptance of the general conditions of these sites. ARTstage is not responsible for the protection of your personal data upon acceptance of these general terms and conditions, and in this regard it is necessary to familiarize yourself with the general terms and conditions of these sites in detail.
VII.I. Facebook
This online application uses Social Plugins ("Plugins") of the social network facebook.com, which is maintained by Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA. ("Facebook").
Plugins are recognized by the Facebook logos (white "f" on a blue background or "thumbs up") or are marked with "Facebook Social Plugin".
When you enter a web page, your browser will immediately make a direct connection to the Facebook servers. The content of this Plugin will be transmitted directly by Facebook to your browser, which will connect it to the website. Artstage.shop cannot influence the amount of data Facebook collects using these Plugins. Therefore, through the following link, we only inform you about what we know http://www.facebook.com/help/?faq=17512.
By connecting to these plugins, Facebook receives information that our respective website or platform has been visited. If you are logged in to Facebook, Facebook can attribute this visit to your profile. If you interact with these Plugins, e.g. press the "Like" button or write a comment, the relevant information will be immediately transferred from your browser to Facebook and saved there. If you are not registered with Facebook, it is still possible for Facebook to find out your IP address and save it.
These Facebook Plugins can be attached by site operators on their own websites or platforms. With one click on these Plugins, registered Facebook users can automatically leave a message on their Facebook profile that they like the information from the site operator's links. The Facebook-related Plugin "communicates" with Facebook on an ongoing basis and sends the data to Facebook when the website is visited - even if the user has not clicked on the Plugins.
Through the so-called iFrame connection, the browser loads, in addition to the launched page, an additional smaller "page within the page" that contains the respective Plugin. In the case of a Plugin belonging to Facebook, this iFrame-link or source text originates entirely from Facebook and cannot be controlled or processed by ARTstage.
If the browser later reconnects to the server of the social network, the "cookie" is transferred and can help create a profile. For users who subsequently register, a connection to the information contained in the "cookie" is also possible.
If the user is logged into the current Facebook session, information about both the page and the "cookie" is transmitted - and this session identification information can be attributed to the corresponding account.
We do not know the scope of the data and the purposes for which it is collected, as well as how it is used by Facebook. For information about your rights and setting options for the protection of your personal data, please refer to Facebook Inc. or follow Facebook's privacy guidelines here.
With add-ons, you can block Facebook-Social-Plugins for your browser using, for example, "Facebook Blocker".
