Part B: Cookie Policy

The Website uses cookies and other similar technologies. This Cookie Policy informs visitors and users of the Website (“you”) about cookies and the purposes for which they are used.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files containing information that a website’s server stores on a visitor’s or user’s terminal equipment (e.g. computer, mobile phone, tablet) while they browse it. The website retrieves this information on later visits by the same visitor or user in order to offer related services (e.g. the visitor’s or user’s preferences, such as language, searches and so on). The term “cookies” also covers other similar technologies that act as trackers and are used to store or collect information on or from a website visitor’s or user’s terminal equipment (e.g. pixels). In general, the main purpose of cookies is to give you the best possible browsing experience in terms of ease and efficiency.

Cookies may be set by the provider of the website the visitor or user is visiting (“first-party cookies”) or by others through that website’s provider (“third-party cookies”). By how long they are stored, cookies are divided into “session cookies” and “persistent cookies”. Session cookies are deleted at the end of your browser session, i.e. when you close your browser, while persistent cookies remain stored on your terminal equipment after you close your browser and are deleted when their lifetime expires.

The use of cookies is governed by Greek Law 3471/2006, which transposed the European ePrivacy Directive 2002/58/EC. Under Article 4(5) of Law 3471/2006, storing information, or gaining access to information already stored, on a user’s terminal equipment is permitted only if that user has given their consent by a positive action (opt-in) after clear and comprehensive information, in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”). User consent is not required for cookies that are technically necessary to establish the connection to the website or to provide the online service.
