What are cookies
Cookies are concise data files placed in your browser by our website, functioning alongside comparable mechanisms such as local storage and pixel tags. While several are indispensable for operating the cart and processing checkout entries, others allow us to evaluate visitor engagement or assess marketing activity.

These sustain the functionality of your basket, checkout submissions, and chosen consent preferences. They remain active at all times and hold no commercial profiling data.
3.2 Functional and security cookies
These retain chosen interface preferences such as language and safeguard the platform from automated scripts.
3.3 Analytics and performance cookies
These inform us, on a strictly aggregated basis, regarding page traffic patterns and system responsiveness. They are placed solely with your explicit approval.
3.4 Marketing and advertising cookies
These record the promotional sources directing visitors to our catalogue and track whether an order was completed. They require your prior consent.
3.5 Campaign tracking
A dedicated first-party record retains the originating campaign or link to attribute subsequent orders accordingly, without capturing identifiable personal information.
Third-party tracking technologies
Third-party analytical and promotional cookies operate under the distinct policies of their respective operators, accessible via our consent banner. We pass no identifying details to these third parties beyond the parameters logged by the cookie itself.
International data transfers
The external operators of these analytical and promotional technologies may handle technical records beyond Greece, governed by formal adequacy determinations or standard contractual clauses.
Profiling and targeted advertising
