1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files stored by a browser on a device. They help features work, retain settings, measure use and diagnose errors. They normally do not contain a name, telephone number or email unless the user supplied it through a form.
2. Similar technologies
For this Policy, cookies also include local storage, session identifiers, technical tags, server logs, analytics tools and technologies that protect against automated requests.
3. Categories
Strictly necessary cookies support page delivery, security, forms, sessions and the storage of user choices. Blocking them in the browser may impair features.
Analytics cookies help measure visits, pages, duration, sources, devices and errors. Functional cookies retain settings. Marketing cookies may measure advertising. Non-essential categories are used only after consent where required.
4. First- and third-party cookies
First-party cookies are set by this website. Third-party cookies may be set by connected analytics, map, messaging or anti-spam services. Their retention and processing are also governed by the relevant provider’s policy.
5. Technical information
Cookies may process IP address, date and time, viewed page, referral source, interactions, session identifier, device, operating system, browser, language, approximate location and error data. Further terms appear in the Privacy Policy.
6. Retention
Session cookies are removed when the browser closes. Persistent cookies remain until their set expiry or deletion by the user. Cookies should not be retained longer than required for their stated purpose.
7. Consent and choices
Only strictly necessary cookies are used before any required consent. A visitor may accept permitted categories, reject non-essential cookies or change a previous choice. Non-essential categories are not preselected, and refusal does not restrict access to core content.
8. Browser controls
Browser settings allow cookies to be viewed, deleted or blocked, third-party cookies to be refused, or cookies to be removed on closing. Blocking all cookies may impair forms, language preferences and other functions.
9. Processing outside Armenia
Connected providers may process technical data on servers outside Armenia. Such processing is limited to what is necessary and is subject to applicable requirements.
10. Changes and contact
This Policy may change when the website, connected services, technology or law changes. Cookie questions may be sent through the Contacts page.
