The website [nokela.gr] (hereinafter the “Website”) uses cookies to store information on your computer. This policy explains how the Website uses cookies. By browsing the Website, you agree and accept the use of cookies on your computer, in accordance with the terms of this policy. If you do not wish to receive cookies from the Website, please either make the appropriate settings (as listed below) or refrain from using the Website.

What are cookies?

“Cookies” are small text files with information that a website (specifically the web server) stores on a user’s computer, without it being possible to know any document or file from the user’s computer. Cookies contain some information, such as the name of a website and certain digits and numbers. Each time the user connects to a website, the latter retrieves this information and offers the user related services. A typical example of such information is the user’s preferences on a website, as indicated by the choices the user makes on that particular website (e.g. selection of specific “buttons”, searches, advertisements, etc.).

Types of cookies used:

Technical cookies

Technical cookies are used for the proper functioning of certain functions of the Website. The Website uses technical cookies, the exclusive purpose of which is to carry out the transmission of a communication or which are necessary for the provision of a specific service, which has been explicitly requested by the user or subscriber (Article 4, paragraph 5 of Law 3471/2006).

They are divided into browser cookies and session cookies, which ensure that the Website functions properly:

  • Analysis cookies, which are technical cookies, when used to measure and analyze the overall number of users and behavior on a given website,
  • Functionality cookies, which allow the website to be customized according to various user choices (e.g. language, etc.), to provide improved services.

The collection and processing of information through the use of technical cookies is necessary for the proper functioning of the Website. In the event that a user objects to the use of such technical cookies, he or she will not be able to visit and view the Website properly.

Beyond technical cookies, the general rule governing the use of an electronic communications network is that gaining access to information already stored in the subscriber’s terminal equipment requires the user’s prior consent following clear and extensive information, i.e. this consent should be given opt-in and not opt-out.

Therefore, cookies that are not “technical” cookies and that are more important for users’ privacy, e.g. those used to create profiles for the user, may be installed on the user’s terminal equipment provided that the user has been clearly and extensively informed and has validly given his consent.

Third-party cookies

When browsing the Website, users’ web browsers may accept third-party cookies.

Third-party cookies are installed by a website other than the one the user is browsing. This is because each website may contain elements (images, maps, sounds, specific links to websites of other domain names) that are located on computer servers other than those hosting the website they are browsing.

How can I review the cookie settings in my browser?

Some users may not agree to the storage of information collected by cookies on their computer. Each web browser provides clear instructions on its cookie policy.

If you do not wish to receive cookies, you can modify your web browser settings so that you are warned when cookies are sent, disable all or some of the cookies used by the Website, or delete cookies that have already been installed on your computer.

Most of the services on the Website operate without the use of cookies. However, if you disable cookies, you may not be able to access certain services and features of the Website.
