We are committed to protecting and respecting your privacy in accordance with the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) (EU) 2016/679 and the Cyprus Law providing for the Protection of Natural Persons with regard to the Processing of Personal Data and for the Free Movement of such Data (Law 125(I)/2018). This policy provides you with clear, transparent, and comprehensive information about the cookies we use, their purposes, and your rights as a user to manage them.

Cookies are small text files consisting of letters and numbers that a website stores on your computer, smartphone, tablet, or any other internet-enabled device when you visit it. These files allow the website's server to recognize your device and retrieve specific pieces of information regarding your browsing history, preferences, and interactions with the platform.

Cookies can be classified based on their lifespan and their origin:

• Session Cookies: These are temporary cookies that remain in the cookie file of your browser only during your browsing session. They are automatically deleted from your device as soon as you exit the website and close your web browser.
• Persistent Cookies: These cookies remain stored on your device's hard drive even after you close your browser. They are used to recognize your device, remember your preferences, and maintain continuity across multiple separate visits to our Website. Persistent cookies remain valid until their set expiration date or until you manually delete them.
• First-Party Cookies: Cookies set directly by our Website (the domain listed in the address bar).
• Third-Party Cookies: Cookies set by domains other than our Website, representing external services embedded within our platform (e.g., analytics providers, social networks, or advertising partners).

In strict compliance with Cyprus and EU data protection frameworks, the processing of data gathered through cookies is governed by the following legal bases:

• Strictly Necessary (Essential) Cookies: The legal basis for using these cookies is our Legitimate Interest (Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR) to ensure the technical availability, security, stability, and basic core functionalities of our Website. Your consent is not legally required for these cookies.
• All Other Cookies (Functional, Performance, and Advertising): The legal basis for processing data via these categories is your explicit, freely given, specific, informed, and unambiguous Consent (Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR). We will never deploy these cookies on your device unless you actively opt-in through our cookie consent mechanism.

4.1. Essential / Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are fundamental for the operational stability of the Website. They enable core functionalities such as secure user login, page navigation, load balancing, shopping cart persistence, and compliance with data security protocols. Without these cookies, the Website cannot function properly or securely, and the specific services you request cannot be provided.

• Data Processed: Session identifiers, security tokens, compliance preferences.
• Lifespan: Primarily session-based, though some security cookies may be persistent.

4.2. Functional / Preference Cookies

Functional cookies enable our Website to remember choices you make during your visits (such as your preferred language, region, text size, font modifications, or custom configurations) and provide enhanced, highly personalized features. These cookies prevent you from having to re-enter your preferences every time you visit a new page.

• Data Processed: Language selections, geographical location data, user display preferences.
• Lifespan: Persistent (ranging from a few weeks to several months, depending on the setting).

4.3. Performance and Analytics Cookies

These cookies collect anonymous, aggregated information regarding how visitors interact with our Website. They track metrics such as the number of visitors, bounce rates, traffic sources, most visited pages, and error messages encountered during navigation. This statistical data is strictly used to evaluate and improve the design, speed, performance, and overall user experience of our services.

• Data Processed: Anonymized IP addresses, page views, click-streams, time spent on pages.
• Lifespan: Mix of session and persistent cookies (typically managed by third-party tools like Google Analytics).

4.4. Behaviorally Targeted Advertising and Third-Party Cookies

These cookies track your browsing habits, online behavior, and interactions across our Website and other third-party digital platforms. They are utilized by advertising networks to build a behavioral profile of your interests, allowing them to display highly relevant, customized advertisements to you on external websites. They also measure the efficacy of marketing campaigns and prevent the same ad from being continuously displayed to the same user.

• Data Processed: Unique device IDs, tracking pixels, browsing history, ad engagement.
• Lifespan: Persistent cookies (often managed by advertising networks like Meta, Google, etc.).

Our Website may incorporate plugins, widgets, or content-sharing tools from social media networks (such as Facebook, LinkedIn, X, etc.).
