Cookie Policy
This Cookie Policy explains what cookies and similar technologies are, how they may be used on WebDesigns.gr and how you can manage your choices.
Small files used by websites and online services
Cookies are small text files that may be stored on your computer, phone or other device when you visit a website.
They can be used for purposes such as keeping a website operational, remembering preferences, maintaining security or measuring how a website is used.
Cookies may be session cookies, which are generally removed when the browser session ends, or persistent cookies, which remain for a defined period or until they are deleted.
Cookies can also be first-party cookies, set by the website you are visiting, or third-party cookies, set through an external service used by that website.
Different technologies serve different purposes
Technologies required for website operation, security, session handling or remembering privacy choices. These may operate without optional consent where they are genuinely necessary for a service requested by the user.
Technologies that remember choices such as settings or display preferences. Whether consent is required depends on their purpose and applicable rules.
Technologies used to understand how visitors interact with the website, such as viewed pages, traffic patterns or website performance. They are not described as active unless actually implemented.
Technologies used for advertising, remarketing, cross-site measurement or campaign attribution. They should not be considered active unless such services are actually installed.
Some technologies may be necessary for the website to work
Strictly necessary technologies may be used where required to provide functionality requested by the visitor or to operate the website securely.
Examples can include security mechanisms, session handling, spam prevention or remembering cookie-consent preferences.
A technology is not “necessary” simply because it is useful to the website owner. It should genuinely be required for the requested service or essential operation.
Analytics and marketing technologies are treated separately
WebDesigns.gr may in the future use analytics, advertising or other optional technologies.
Where such technologies are introduced and applicable law requires consent, they should not be activated until the visitor has made the relevant choice.
At the time this policy was prepared, we do not state that Google Analytics, Google Ads, Meta Pixel or another named tracking platform is active unless it has been separately verified on the website.
We do not publish invented cookie names
The exact cookies present on a website can change when WordPress, plugins, security tools, consent tools or third-party services change.
For that reason, the inventory below describes the types of technologies that may be present without claiming that an unverified third-party cookie is currently active.
| Category | Provider | Purpose | Duration | Consent |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Strictly Necessary | WebDesigns.gr / WordPress / hosting infrastructure | Website operation, security, session functionality or technical delivery where required. | Session or service-defined. | Not required where genuinely strictly necessary. |
| Consent Preference | Consent-management system, if enabled. | Remembering whether a visitor accepted, rejected or configured optional technologies. | Depends on the consent tool used. | Necessary to remember the visitor's privacy choice. |
| Analytics | No specific provider asserted here unless separately enabled and verified. | Website usage and performance measurement. | Depends on the service. | Subject to applicable consent requirements. |
| Marketing | No specific provider asserted here unless separately enabled and verified. | Advertising, remarketing or campaign measurement. | Depends on the service. | Subject to applicable consent requirements. |
If a new analytics, advertising or embedded third-party service is installed, this policy and the website's consent configuration should be reviewed before or at deployment.
Optional consent must be an actual choice
Where consent is required, visitors should receive clear information about the relevant technology and be able to make a genuine choice.
Merely continuing to browse should not automatically be treated as consent to non-essential technologies where applicable law requires a positive consent action.
Rejecting optional technologies should not prevent access to ordinary website content where those technologies are not necessary for that content.
You can control cookies in more than one way
Blocking all cookies may affect functionality where a strictly necessary or preference-related technology is required for a feature you request.
External services can set their own technologies
Some website features may depend on external services, embedded content or third-party infrastructure.
If such a service sets cookies or uses similar tracking technologies, its own privacy and cookie practices may also apply.
WebDesigns.gr should not classify a third-party service as active in this policy until that service is actually installed or used on the website.
This page should change when the website changes
This Cookie Policy may be updated if the website's plugins, analytics, advertising, embedded content or consent tools change.
The “Last updated” date at the top of the page should be revised when material changes are made.
You can also read our Privacy Policy for information about the processing of personal data.
