Cookie policy.

1 Company details

The Website is operated by the following company.

2 What cookies are

A cookie is a small text file that a website stores on your device during your visit. Cookies allow a site to operate correctly, enhance the experience of the people using it, analyse the traffic it receives, retain preferences and underpin both its performance and its security.

Cookies may be set by us directly, in which case they are called “first-party cookies”, or by external service providers, in which case they are called “third-party cookies”.

3 Cookies we may use

The cookies we may use fall into the categories below.

Strictly necessary cookies

The Website relies on these cookies to run, to stay secure and to function. They make core features possible, such as moving between pages, security safeguards and entry to protected areas. Without them, some areas of the Website may not work correctly.

Performance and analytics cookies

Through these cookies we learn how people use the Website; the information they gather is anonymous or aggregated. That insight lets us improve:

• the performance of the Website;
• usability;
• navigation;
• the quality of our content;
• the reliability of our systems.

Functional cookies

These cookies let the Website keep track of choices you have made, such as your language or regional settings, so that we can provide an experience that is more personalised.

Marketing and advertising cookies

Where they apply, these cookies may serve to show advertising that is relevant to you, to measure how effective advertising campaigns are and to limit how often the same advertisement is shown. They may be placed by third-party partners in advertising or social media.

4 Legal basis

Under the EU and Cypriot data protection laws that apply to us, the grounds we rely on are:

• for strictly necessary cookies, our legitimate interests;
• for cookies that are not essential, such as analytics, functional and marketing cookies, your consent, wherever the law requires it.

At present the Website uses strictly necessary cookies only, and these are exempt from consent requirements under applicable law. No cookie banner or tool for managing consent is currently in use. Should we add performance, functional or marketing cookies later, we will ask for your consent before they are set and give you a way to withdraw or change that consent at any time.

5 Third-party services

We may work with trusted external providers to help us with analytics, hosting, security and the functioning of the Website. Acting on our behalf, these providers may set cookies or handle some technical information.

Such providers may include:

• analytics services;
• cloud hosting providers;
• security and fraud-prevention services;
• providers of embedded content;
• tools for communication or customer support.

Third-party cookies are not under our direct control, so we recommend that you consult each provider's own privacy and cookie policies.

6 How long cookies last

The length of time a cookie stays on your device depends on the purpose it serves.

• Session cookies are erased automatically when your browser is closed.
• Persistent cookies are kept on your device until their expiry date, or until you remove them manually.

Retention periods may differ according to the cookie provider and the function concerned.

7 Controlling cookies

You can control cookies, or switch them off, by using:

• the settings in your browser;
• our own cookie controls, where we provide them;
• the privacy controls on your device.

Most browsers let you:

• block cookies;
• delete cookies already stored;
• be notified before a cookie is placed.

Please be aware that switching off certain cookies may affect how the Website works, how secure it is or your experience of using it. Guidance for your particular browser is usually available on its provider's support pages.

8 International transfers

We apply appropriate safeguards, as the GDPR requires, whenever personal data obtained through cookies is sent beyond the European Economic Area (“EEA”). Those safeguards may include:

• Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs);
• adequacy decisions;
• further technical and organisational security measures.

9 Your rights

Depending on where you are and the law that applies to you, you may hold rights over the personal data that cookies and comparable technologies collect. Those rights include the right to:

• obtain access to your personal data;
• ask for it to be corrected or deleted;
• object to its processing;
• have its processing restricted;
• withdraw your consent;
• complain to a supervisory authority.

If you are located in Cyprus, your competent supervisory authority is the following.
