2. Purposes
Crumb Avenue uses Cookie Technologies:
- to make the Site function for you and to give you better browsing experience. For example to remember your preferences, so that you don’t have to re-enter information every time you change pages.
- to protect you from Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF). The CSRF is an attack that forces a user to execute unwanted actions on a website. An attacker may trick the users of a website into executing actions of the attacker's choosing. There are many ways in which this can be done f.ex. by specially-crafted image tags, hidden forms, and JavaScript XMLHttpRequests.
- to understand how the Site is used by visitors. We use Google Analytics.
- to throttle request rates. Throttling is the process of limiting the number of requests you can submit to a given operation in a given amount of time. Throttling protects the Site from being overwhelmed with requests.
