Cookies Policy

1. Introduction

This Cookies Policy explains what cookies are, how they are used on the L’Artelier by Kate website, for what purposes information may be stored on or read from your device, and how you can manage your related choices.

While browsing the website, cookies and similar technologies may be used for the technical operation of the site, the retention of basic settings, the improvement of user experience, and, where applicable, for functional or statistical purposes. The use of cookies is guided by functionality, transparency, and respect for your privacy.

This Policy should be read in conjunction with the website’s Privacy Policy, which explains more generally how personal data is processed.

2. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files or similar technological elements that are stored on your device when you visit a website. Through them, the website may “remember” certain information about your browsing, your choices, or your session so that it can operate more effectively and smoothly.

Cookies are not by nature always identifying elements. In some cases, they serve exclusively technical purposes, while in others they may be used for functional settings, user preferences, basic performance measurement, or integration with third-party services.

3. Why we use cookies

The use of cookies on the website serves specific and limited purposes. Primarily, cookies help with the proper technical operation of the site, the stability of the browsing experience, and the retention of basic user choices, such as preferences relating to cookie management.

In addition, certain cookies may be used so that we can better understand how the website functions, which parts of it are used more often, or how we can improve the overall visitor experience. Such uses are activated only when permitted by the applicable legal framework and, where required, only following your own choice.

4. Categories of cookies that may be used

4.1 Strictly necessary cookies

Strictly necessary cookies are those required for the website to function properly and to make it technically possible to provide the service requested by the user. Without them, certain core features of the site may not function or may not function correctly.

Such cookies may relate to the basic security of the website, the maintenance of a connection, the proper display of certain functions, or the storage of your choices regarding optional cookies.

No prior consent is required for this category, to the extent that the cookies are genuinely technically necessary for the operation of the website or for the provision of a service requested by the user. This reflects the relevant guidance of the Hellenic Data Protection Authority as well as European cookie practice.

4.2 Functionality cookies

Functionality cookies allow the website to remember your choices or preferences so that the browsing experience becomes smoother and more tailored to your use. For example, they may relate to the storage of certain user settings or to functions that are not strictly necessary but noticeably improve the experience.

These cookies are used only where permitted and, where required, after your relevant consent.

4.3 Analytics or performance cookies

Analytics or performance cookies are used to collect information about how visitors use the website, such as which pages they visit most frequently, whether technical errors occur, or which parts of the site attract greater interest.

This information helps improve the content, structure, and functionality of the website. Where such cookies are not strictly necessary, they are activated only with consent and not automatically when the page is opened.

4.4 Third-party cookies or other similar technologies

In certain cases, the website may also rely on technologies of third-party providers for the operation of forms, communication, or other functional infrastructure. If such services use cookies or similar technologies, these may fall within the corresponding categories described in this Policy.

The website operates on infrastructure such as GoHighLevel / LeadConnector, which may be involved in the technical operation of forms and related web functions. HighLevel publicly states a privacy / security framework and refers to participation in the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework for matters relating to data transfers and data protection.

5. First-party cookies and third-party cookies

The cookies that may be used on the website are divided into first-party cookies and third-party cookies.

First-party cookies are placed by the website itself and usually serve functions directly related to its core structure, functionality, and management.

Third-party cookies originate from external providers or embedded services that support part of the site’s technical or functional infrastructure. In such cases, their use is subject both to this Policy and, where relevant, to the policies of the respective third-party providers.

6. Consent and management of choices

Upon your first visit to the website, a cookie notice and management mechanism appears, through which you may choose which categories of optional cookies you accept.

Strictly necessary cookies remain active, as they are required for the basic functioning of the website. By contrast, optional cookies, such as analytics or functionality cookies when they are not technically necessary, are activated only if you choose so. European guidance is clear that cookies requiring consent must not be placed in operation before the user has made a valid choice.

Your choice may be stored so that the same process is not required on every visit. If the site provides the relevant function, you may also review your choices later through the cookie management tool.

7. How you can control or delete cookies

In addition to the choices provided through the cookie banner, you may also manage cookies through the settings of the browser you use. Most browsers allow the user to see which cookies have been stored, delete them individually or entirely, and block their future storage.

You should be aware, however, that disabling or blocking certain cookies may affect the functionality of the website or limit certain features. In particular, in relation to technically necessary functions, the absence of cookies may result in part of the browsing experience not functioning properly.

8. Duration of cookie storage

Not all cookies have the same lifespan. Some are automatically deleted as soon as you close your browser and are considered session cookies. Others remain on your device for a longer period so that they can remember choices or technical settings and are classified as persistent cookies.

The storage duration of each cookie depends on its purpose, the provider placing it, and the nature of the service it supports. Where feasible, the relevant information is reflected through the consent mechanism or the site’s technical configuration.

9. Legal basis for the use of cookies

The use of cookies on the website is governed by the applicable European and Greek legal framework concerning privacy in electronic communications and the processing of personal data.

Within this framework, strictly necessary cookies may be used without prior consent when they are necessary for the operation of the website or for a service requested by the user. By contrast, optional cookies require prior information and an active choice by the visitor. This approach is reflected both in the guidance of the Hellenic Data Protection Authority and in official European information on the use of cookies on websites.

10. Relationship with the Privacy Policy

This Cookies Policy supplements the website’s Privacy Policy and does not replace it.

While the Privacy Policy describes overall how personal data is collected, used, and protected, this page focuses specifically on cookie technologies, their relevant categories, and the choices available to you while browsing.

11. Updates to the Cookies Policy

This Policy may be amended or updated from time to time so that it reflects technological, operational, or legal changes affecting the website.

The version in force each time will be posted on this page, together with the relevant date of last update. You are encouraged to check the content of the Policy periodically so that you remain informed of any changes.

12. Contact

For any questions regarding this Cookies Policy or for more information about how the website uses cookies and similar technologies, you may contact us through the contact details stated on the website.
