Microfinance Centre hereby informs that its web pages use the cookie technology, i.e. text files that gather information about the pages and subpages visited by the User and about the activity of the User.

The cookies that may be used on the website are linked exclusively to the web browser of a specific computer (anonymous user), without giving the name or the surname of its User. The information is recorded by the Microfinance Centre server on User’s computer, and may be accessed by the Microfinance Centre server each time the User’s computer connects to the server. Cookies provide statistical data regarding the traffic and Users’ activity on specific pages of the Microfinance Centre website.
