Cookies POLICY

What are Cookies?

Cookies are small files containing data that a website requests from the visitor’s browser to store in the visitor’s computer or mobile device (smartphone, tablet, etc.). After cookies are stored in the visitor’s device, they allow that website to “remember” the visitor’s activities, as well as preferences. Each cookie performs a different function, since there are cookies that are essential for a website to run smoothly, while there are others, e.g. ads cookies, which are used for advertising purposes.

 

What cookies are collected and what purpose does each one of them serve?

In specific, cookies are used on the website to identify a visitor-user, and also, in order to remember the latter’s preferences (session cookies). Thus, when a visitor browses or visits the website at a later point in time, he or she will not have to enter information again. These cookies are solely used for the above purposes, and for the convenience of a user-visitor of the website.

Finally, third party cookies are also used, such as:

– Google Ads and Google Analytics cookies, Meta pixel cookies (Facebook, Instagram), MailChimp cookies, always upon express consent of the user: Google AdWords and Google Analytics cookies. These cookies are used to promote and advertise the website online, and are part of the Google Ads service and the Google Analytics application, which collect statistical data. However, through the Google Analytics application it is possible to make use of the option of anonymizing the visitor’s IP address, in order to make it impossible to identify the IP address of any user, and therefore making it impossible to identify the user.

– Meta Pixel cookies (Facebook, Instagram). These cookies are used to promote and advertise the website, so that we can get performance data on any advertising campaign of ours.

– MailChimp Cookies. They are essential for offering the option to a user to subscribe to newsletters of the company and identifying that person in case of unsubscribing.

 

How does the acceptance/installation and control/deletion of cookies take place?

The acceptance, rejection, or modification of cookies by a visitor takes place upon his or her first visit to the website, through a special mechanism that fully complies with the provisions of the GDPR. In specific, the cookies policy is displayed through an emerging window, on which, a user can choose to accept (in part or in full) the cookies used by the website, while he or she can also modify them later on, by opening the special options window. In any case, the cookies that exist in the computer of a user may also be deleted by the user himself or herself through the settings of the browser program that he or she uses, at any time, and regardless of the time of his or her visit to a specific website.

 

Changes to the Cookies Policy

Any change implemented on the Cookies Policy shall be notified to the visitors/users of the Website through this Cookies Policy.
