POLICY REGARDING THE USE OF COOKIE MODULES AND SIMILAR TECHNOLOGIES

This document is intended to inform the users of the website https://www.geko.ro/ regarding the placement, use, and management of cookie modules by GEKO COMERT SRL in the context of users browsing this web page.

1. INTRODUCTION

This policy supplements the website’s Privacy Policy and the general Terms and Conditions. The use of cookie modules is necessary to ensure the optimal functioning of our online services, to analyze traffic, and to personalize the experience of each visitor. We respect the confidentiality of your data in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR).

2. WHAT IS A “COOKIE” MODULE?

A cookie module is a small text file, of the “read-only” type, which does not execute code and does not contain viruses. It is downloaded into the browser memory (or onto the hard disk) when you access a website. The cookie acts as a “label” that allows the website to recognize your device on subsequent visits.

There are two main categories:

• Session cookies: Temporarily created and automatically deleted when you close the browser.
• Persistent cookies: Remain on the device until expiry or until manually deleted by the user.

3. LEGAL BASIS OF PROCESSING

The use of strictly necessary cookies is based on the legitimate interest of GEKO COMERT SRL in ensuring the proper functioning of the website. For analytics, marketing, or preference cookies, the legal basis is your explicit consent, provided through the settings interface (the cookie banner).

4. DETAILED CATEGORIES OF COOKIES USED

4.1. Technical and Functional Cookies (Essential)

These allow the use of basic functions: navigation, access to the customer account, website security, and keeping products in the shopping cart. Without these, the services of geko.ro cannot be properly provided.

4.2. Analytics and Performance Cookies

These collect aggregated data about how the website is used (e.g. number of visitors, most accessed pages, traffic source). This information is used strictly to optimize the speed and quality of the website.

4.3. Advertising Cookies (Targeting)

We use these modules to display ads tailored to your interests on other platforms (Google, Facebook). They also limit the number of times the same ad is shown.

2. Browser settings: You can set your browser to block any cookies.

Please note: Completely blocking cookies may make the website www.geko.ro non-functional or difficult to use.

8. SECURITY AND CONFIDENTIALITY

Cookies are not viruses, but they may be used for user profiling. GEKO COMERT SRL uses encryption methods to prevent the interception of data from cookies. Also, data collected through partners (third parties) is anonymized where possible (e.g. IP anonymization in Google Analytics).

9. YOUR RIGHTS (GDPR)
