COOKIE POLICY

General Information About Cookies

A cookie is a small set of data that a website can store on your computer or mobile phone.
The cookie allows the website to “remember” your actions as you browse it. Although most web browsers — such as Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Safari, and Opera — support the use of cookies, the user can configure their browser not to accept cookies or to delete them afterwards.

Each cookie typically contains information such as:

the name of the website it comes from,
its “lifetime” (i.e., how long it will remain on your device), and
a value, which is usually a number.

Essentially, cookies allow websites to store various anonymous pieces of information — for example, the visitor’s preferences or whether they have visited the website before. However, cookies never contain personal information that would allow anyone to contact the website visitor (such as email addresses, phone numbers, etc.).

Our website uses cookies, following standard internet practices, to assist with your access and navigation on the web.

Use of Cookies

By browsing the website https://mameds.gr/ (hereinafter referred to as the "Website") of the company maMEDS I.K.E. (hereinafter referred to as the "Company"), visitors are informed upon their first visit via a notification at the bottom of the page that they accept and understand that the use of cookies is necessary for the optimal functionality of the site.

You can modify your browser settings to reject some or all cookies, except for those that are strictly necessary. However, you should be aware that some features are only available through the use of cookies, and if you choose to reject cookies, these features may not be available.

Browsers are usually set to accept all cookies. If you wish, you can configure your browser to not accept cookies from a specific website, notify you when cookies are being stored, or not accept cookies at all, except for those necessary for the proper functioning of the application.

To learn more about cookie settings in different browsers, you can click on the "Help" option in your browser.

What types of cookies are used?

The Company uses cookies on the Website to manage sessions, provide and tailor personalized advertising and other content to reflect your particular needs and interests. Cookies can also be used to compile anonymous, aggregated statistics that allow us to understand how the public uses our Website and help us improve its structure and content. We cannot identify you personally from this information. For more information about cookies in general, you can visit the website allaboutcookies.org.

Specifically, our Website uses the following categories of cookies:

Necessary cookies

Necessary or strictly essential cookies are crucial for the proper functioning of our Website and allow you to browse and use its features. These cookies do not identify your personal identity. Without these cookies, we cannot offer the effective operation of our Website.

Functionality (Preferences) cookies

These cookies allow our Website to remember user choices such as language or region to provide improved and personalized features. They may also be used to provide services requested by the user, such as viewing videos or using social media. The information collected by these cookies may be anonymized and cannot track your browsing activity on other websites. If you do not accept these cookies, the performance and functionality of the Website may be affected, and your access to some content may be limited.

Performance (Analytics) cookies

These cookies collect information about how visitors use the Website — for example, which pages are visited most often and if users receive error messages. These cookies collect aggregated, anonymous information that does not identify any visitor/user. They are used exclusively to improve the performance of the Website. We also use a cookie to collect statistical data through the Google Analytics code. For more information, visit: Google Analytics Cookies. These cookies do not collect information that could identify the visitor.

Marketing (Advertising) cookies

These cookies are used to deliver content that is more relevant to you and your interests. They may be used to send targeted advertising/offers, limit the number of times an ad is displayed, or measure the effectiveness of an advertising campaign. These cookies may be used to remember the websites you have visited in order to determine which online marketing channels are most effective. Such cookies may also be collected by social media platforms (Facebook, Instagram, etc.) for interest-based advertising, which allows for the display of personalized and relevant advertisements tailored to the user’s preferences.

Mandatory consent for storing cookies

The installation and use of “cookies” is specifically regulated by paragraph 5 of article 4 of Law 3471/2006 (which transposed Directive 2002/58/EC into Greek law), according to which the installation and use of a “cookie” is only permitted with the user’s consent. A website may install such a “cookie” only if the user has given their consent after being clearly and thoroughly informed about the installation, the purpose of the processing, the exercise of the right of access, and any recipients of the data. This consent can be given through appropriate settings in the web browser or through another application.

Obtaining consent from the visitor

Given that the cookies from the Google Analytics service are third-party in relation to our website and do not fall under the exemption of paragraph 5 of article 4 of Law 3471/2006 as traffic analysis cookies, our website obtains the visitor’s consent before storing cookies on their terminal device. The user has the ability at any time to delete the cookies that this website has stored in their browser through their settings.

Specifically, the website uses a special plugin that prevents cookies from being stored on the visitor’s terminal device unless consent is first obtained by clicking an acceptance button. Next to the acceptance button, there is a link that leads to this Cookie Policy, where the user can read all the necessary information to help them make an informed decision about whether or not to consent to the acceptance of cookies.

How to Control Cookies?

It is at your discretion to revoke your consent at any time or to object to the use of cookies on your computer or device, as well as to control and/or delete cookies.

Changes to the Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy may be modified at any time. For this reason, we recommend that you regularly review this Policy. In the event of any modification, the date of the change will be indicated. The applicable Cookie Policy is always the one as shaped by the most recent modification.
