This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, how they may be used when you visit the Xelqoravinthessa website and how you can manage them. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy, which explains how we handle personal information more generally.
1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files that a website may place on your device through your browser. They can help a website remember a session, maintain security, store a preference or understand how a website is used. Similar technologies can include local storage, session storage, pixels and scripts that recognise a browser or device.
Cookies may be session-based, meaning they are removed when you close your browser, or persistent, meaning they remain on your device for a defined period or until you delete them. A first-party cookie is set by the website you visit. A third-party cookie is set by a separate service embedded in or connected with that website.
2. Cookies used on this website
At the date of this policy, the Xelqoravinthessa website does not use advertising cookies, cross-site tracking cookies or third-party analytics cookies. We do not use cookies to build advertising profiles or follow visitors across unrelated websites.
The website may rely on essential technical functions provided by the browser or hosting environment to deliver pages and protect the service. Such technical processing is limited to what is reasonably needed for basic website operation, security and delivery. Server logs and ordinary network requests are not themselves browser cookies.
If we introduce optional analytics, personalisation or marketing technologies in the future, we will update this policy and, where required, ask for your consent before those technologies are activated. Refusing optional cookies will not prevent you from reading the public pages of the website.
3. Categories of cookies and similar technologies
Websites commonly use the following categories. This list explains the categories so that you can understand future changes if the website introduces additional functionality:
- Strictly necessary technologies: support core functions such as security, network management, session continuity or a feature you specifically request. These technologies are not used for advertising.
- Preference technologies: remember choices such as language, display preferences or other settings so that a later visit can be more convenient.
- Analytics technologies: help a website understand aggregated visitor activity, such as which pages are visited and whether a page produces an error. Where consent is required, these technologies should remain inactive until consent is given.
- Marketing technologies: may be used to measure advertising or display content based on browsing activity. Xelqoravinthessa does not currently use these technologies on this website.
4. Consent and legal requirements
Where applicable law requires consent for a non-essential cookie or similar technology, we will request consent before using it. Consent should be freely given, specific, informed and indicated by a clear affirmative action. You should be able to refuse optional technologies as easily as you can accept them, and you may withdraw consent later.
Strictly necessary technologies may be used without consent where the law permits them because they are required to provide a service you have requested or to operate the website securely. We will not treat a visit to the website, continued browsing or a pre-selected setting as consent to optional tracking where consent is legally required.
5. Managing cookies in your browser
You can usually control cookies through your browser settings. Depending on the browser, you may be able to view stored cookies, delete existing cookies, block all cookies, block cookies from selected websites or receive a notice when a cookie is set.
If you block all cookies, some websites may not operate as intended. Because the current Xelqoravinthessa website does not rely on optional cookies for its public pages, blocking optional cookies should not prevent access to the bakery information displayed here. Browser controls are managed by your browser provider, and the exact steps may differ between devices and software versions.
6. Third-party content and links
Our website may contain links to websites operated by other organisations. If you follow a link, the destination website may use its own cookies and similar technologies. We do not control those technologies and recommend that you review the destination website's cookie and privacy information before using it.
We do not currently embed third-party advertising players, social media feeds or external map widgets on the website. If this changes, we will review the privacy and consent implications and update this policy where necessary.
7. Personal information and cookies
Some cookies or similar technologies may be capable of identifying a browser or linking activity to an individual. Where that information is personal information, it is handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy and applicable privacy law. We do not use cookie-based profiling to make decisions about bakery customers.
If optional analytics or marketing technologies are introduced, we will explain the information collected, the purposes, the relevant providers, the retention periods and any overseas transfers before or when consent is requested, as required by law.
8. Changes to this Cookie Policy
We may update this policy if our website features, technologies or legal obligations change. The revised version will be published on this page with a new update date. If a material change requires consent, we will take the required steps before activating the relevant technology.
