Management of personal data and cookies
What are cookies and why does ΔΕΛΦΙΝΙ Gerontology Centre use them?
Cookies are text files that contain small amounts of information, which are placed on your browsing device (such as a computer, a mobile device or a smartphone) when you visit certain websites, including our website. Cookies help websites recognise whether your browsing device has visited them before, and improve the functionality of the services provided on the website.
For example, each time you visit such a website you may be signed in automatically, and the website will remember your preferences. Some cookies are associated with your account and your personal details. Both first-party cookies and third-party cookies (described below) may serve various functions, such as tracking, marketing and targeted advertising. In addition to using cookies, we may also use other automated data-collection methods similar to cookies, such as “clear GIFs”, Flash cookies and pixels, and when we refer to cookies in this Cookie Policy we are referring to cookies and to those other automated methods.
What are the different types of cookies?
ΔΕΛΦΙΝΙ Gerontology Centre uses “first-party cookies” and “third-party cookies”. First-party cookies are cookies that belong to ΔΕΛΦΙΝΙ Gerontology Centre, whereas third-party cookies are cookies that another party places on your browsing device through our website. Third-party cookies will generally provide a service for ΔΕΛΦΙΝΙ Gerontology Centre, but we cannot control how those third-party cookies are used. You should check the third party’s website for further information about how they use cookies. In addition, please note that the parties that have set the third-party cookies may recognise your computer both when it visits our website and when it visits certain other websites or mobile applications.
In addition, ΔΕΛΦΙΝΙ Gerontology Centre may use “session cookies” and “persistent cookies”. Session cookies are stored on your device only during a single browsing session on the site and are deleted automatically when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain on your device until they expire or until you or your browser delete them.
For these purposes, ΔΕΛΦΙΝΙ Gerontology Centre may use the following categories of cookies on its website:
- Essential cookies, which allow you to move around this site and use its features. Without these cookies, the services that are necessary for you to be able to use our website — such as ensuring that you remain signed in, or remembering your preferences — cannot be provided.
- Tracking and advertising cookies, some of which are used to deliver advertisements that are more relevant to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement, and to help measure the effectiveness of an advertising campaign. They are usually placed by advertising networks with our permission, which means that if you stop using our services you may still see some advertisements for our services elsewhere on the internet. In addition, some of these cookies collect information about how visitors use the website, such as which pages they visit most often and whether they receive error messages from web pages.
How can you manage your cookie preferences?
To manage your cookie preferences, visit the “My cookie preferences” tab by going to “Settings”–“Privacy”–“My cookie preferences”. On the “My cookie preferences” page you can disable tracking and advertising cookies, but you may experience some loss of functionality in the services we provide. Please note that we provide certain third-party services (such as Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and embedded YouTube videos) that place their own cookies in your browser, and these services can be used only if their cookies are not disabled.
As a result, those particular cookies cannot be disabled.
How can you manage cookies through your browser settings?
