GEOSTROY AD uses cookies or similar tools on the websites it operates to enhance their performance and functionality. This policy explains how we do this.

1.What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device when you visit a website. They help the website recognise your device (a mobile phone, an office phone, a desktop computer, a laptop, a tablet). Cookies do not collect any information about documents or files located on your device. Cookies allow the website to store information about user actions and preferences (such as username, language, font size, etc.), for a certain period of time or enable other functionalities.

2.How do we use cookies?

Most browsers are set to accept all cookies by default. However, users can change their browser settings to receive notifications before cookies are stored, to accept or reject specific cookies, or to block all cookies. Users can also delete all cookies from their device at any time. Please note that any changes you make to these settings apply only to the specific browser program in which you made them. If you use different browsers or devices, you must change the settings on each browser and each device.

3.What is an IP address (Internet Protocol Address)?

An IP address is a unique numerical label (a series of numbers separated by periods) assigned to your device each time you connect to the Internet. This number can vary depending on the computer network you use to access the Internet – for example, your home network, office network, or a public network like at an airport. An IP address enables devices and servers on the Internet to recognise and communicate with each other. On its own, an IP address does not personally identify you. It simply allows us to maintain communication with your device while you browse our website.

4.What data do we collect through our cookies?

When we use cookies, we collect the IP address of the device you use each time you visit our website. We use your IP address to ensure the website functions correctly and to support smooth navigation. We also use it to customise the website to your needs, improve your experience with our modules, maintain IT security, and perform system diagnostics. We may also share your IP address with partners who help us maintain and improve our website.

6.Types of cookies we use

6.1. Essential Cookies (First-Party Cookies

These cookies are used only by us and are therefore called “First-Party Cookies”. They are set by the website’s server and share the same domain. These cookies are strictly necessary for the website to function as intended, to create a user session for the visitor, and to assign a user group with access to public resources on the website (e.g. text, images, etc.). We use two types of first-party cookies: session cookies and persistent cookies.

• Session Cookies are stored on your device only during a single browsing session on our website. These cookies help control how much information is shown based on your internet usage and determine how the website appears on your device (for example, language, font, colour, layout, etc.). These cookies also save your decision on the use of cookies on our website. You can set your browser to block these cookies or alert you about them; however, this may affect the functionality of some parts of our website. These cookies do not store any personal information and are deleted at the end of the user session, i.e. after our website has been closed on the respective device.

• Persistent Cookies are stored on your device for a specific, predetermined period. On our website, we use persistent cookies to display the dialog box that appears when you first visit the website, requesting your consent to our use of cookies. These cookies are automatically deleted after 90 days.

First-Party Cookies cannot be disabled in our systems. They are typically set only in response to actions you take that constitute a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in, or completing a contact form.

6.2. Functional Cookies

These cookies enable our website to provide you with enhanced functionality and personalisation. They may be set by us or by third parties whose services we have integrated into our web pages. The purpose of these cookies is to offer you a more personalised experience based on your previous visits and choices. If you reject these cookies, some services may not function properly.

6.3. Analytics Cookies

We use these cookies to analyse and identify how visitors interact with our website. We track the IP address of your device to recognise you when you return to our website. Where possible, we combine your online behaviour data with the personal data you have previously provided to us to better understand your interests and preferences.

6.4. Third-Party Cookies

Third-Party Cookies are stored on a domain different from our website’s domain. This typically occurs when our website redirects your browser to retrieve a file, such as a JavaScript file, hosted on an external domain. These cookies are persistent cookies and will be automatically deleted after 2 years if you no longer visit https://www.geostroy.com/

6.5. Uncategorised Cookies

Uncategorised cookies are these cookies that are being analysed and haven’t been classified into a specific category based on their function or purpose.
