This cookie policy applies to websites accessible through papapostolou.bg (the Website)

This website uses cookies. Cookies are small files containing certain information that are stored on your device. Cookies are served either by Papapostolou EOOD (“Papapostolou”) – so-called “first-party cookies” – or by third parties providing services to Papapostolou; such cookies are called “third-party cookies”.

Cookies are necessary to provide certain functionalities of a website, e.g. to support the language selection made by the user. In addition, cookies allow the relevant publisher (Papapostolou or a third party) to recognize that the website was previously called up by a certain terminal device, which allows the identification of returning visitors (or rather their terminal devices) and the collection of information on how they use website and their alleged interests.

This information is used to improve the website and to provide relevant advertising for Papapostolou products and services on the website and on third-party sites.

Cookies can be assigned to four categories depending on their function and purpose: strictly necessary cookies, performance cookies, functional cookies and cookies for marketing purposes.

Absolutely necessary cookies

These cookies are essential to allow you to navigate the website and use its features, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in or filling out forms. Without these cookies, the services requested by using our website cannot be properly provided.

Strictly necessary cookies do not require user consent under applicable law. You can configure your web browser to block absolutely necessary cookies, but subsequently you may not be able to use the functionalities of the website as intended.

To the extent that information processed in connection with strictly necessary cookies is to be qualified as personal data in a given case, the legal basis for this processing is Papapostolou’ legitimate interest in operating the website.

Performance cookies

These cookies collect information about how visitors use a website, such as which pages they visit most often and how they move around the site. They help us better understand a user’s behavior on our website and improve the website’s usability and user experience.

Additional information collected by performance cookies may include, for example: Internet browser and operating system used, domain name of the website you previously visited, number of visits, average duration of visit and pages called.

The information collected by these cookies is aggregated and generally cannot be linked to a specific individual. However, in some cases the information collected may be linked directly to you (provided you have disclosed your identity to Papapostolou, for example when you create an account or submit a request with us). To the extent that the information processed in connection with performance cookies may in a given case be directly linked to you or otherwise qualify as personal data, the legal basis for this processing is the user’s consent.

Functional cookies

These cookies allow the website to remember the choices you make or the information you enter (such as your username, language or the region you are in) and provide enhanced personalized features. They are also used to enable requested features such as playing videos for example.

To the extent that the information processed in connection with the functional cookies should in a given case be qualified as personal data, the legal basis for this processing is the consent of the user.

Cookies for marketing purposes

Cookies for marketing purposes (also called targeting or advertising cookies) are used to deliver advertisements on third-party websites more relevant to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an ad and to help measure the effectiveness of an advertising campaign.

The legal basis for processing personal data in connection with marketing cookies (if any) is the user’s consent.
