HOW DO WE PROCESS YOUR PERSONAL DATA?
In compliance with the requirements of the GDPR, we process your personal data in a fair and transparent manner, ensuring the lawfulness, objectivity and transparency of the processing.
We collect data for specified, explicit and legitimate purposes and do not process it in a way that is incompatible with those purposes.
We collect the data that is necessary and appropriate for the purposes of processing and only the data that we need.
We keep the data up to date and ensure their accuracy or delete and correct them where they are inaccurate in relation to the purpose of the processing.
We keep the data for as long as necessary for the purpose of the processing and then ensure their safe destruction.
We take care to protect personal data from loss, misuse and abuse, unauthorised access and leakage by ensuring that appropriate technical and organisational measures are in place to protect it.
LEGAL BASIS OF THE PROCESSING
For all of the processing purposes described above, the legal basis for the processing is a legal obligation: the processing of your personal data is necessary to comply with a legal obligation, i.e. an obligation arising from the law. Failure to process the necessary data will result in a breach of the law and the corresponding sanctions, as well as in an inadequate service to you.
In particular, the purpose and functions performed by the company are determined by the relevant legislation and by individual regulations, provisions and circulars issued to implement it, and the manner in which it performs them, with all the necessary actions taken in execution thereof, is determined and carried out in application of the relevant legislation.
SHARED USE OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA
Your personal data is treated with complete confidentiality and security and is not disclosed further, except where disclosure is required.
RETENTION PERIOD OF YOUR DATA
Your personal data is kept for no longer than the reasonable period of time required for the purpose of the individual processing carried out on it and there are certain criteria that determine this. In cases where your personal data is processed on the basis of a legal obligation in accordance with the above, the retention period is determined on the basis of the requirements of the law, the period of time during which checks can be carried out by the competent authorities, the statute of limitations, and your own legitimate interests.
In cases where your personal data will be processed on the basis of the consent granted by you, explicit or explicit, the time of compliance is determined by the possibility of withdrawing it. As soon as you withdraw your consent, the relevant personal data will also be deleted.
FURTHER PROCESSING
We reserve the right to amend this Privacy Policy whenever there is a change in its content that requires disclosure. If the need arises for us to use your personal data for a new purpose that is not covered by this Privacy Policy, then we will re-notify you of the Privacy Policy prior to the start of processing, which will include the new use and set out the relevant purposes and conditions of processing. Where and when necessary, your consent to the new processing will be sought in advance.
OTHER TERMS
The personal data relating to this, we collect from you, the data subjects.
As the controller of your data, we declare responsibly that we have taken all necessary organisational measures to protect your personal data and maintain a comprehensive security plan in accordance with the requirements of the GDPR.
The collection and processing of personal data under this Privacy Policy is carried out by legitimate means and in a manner that ensures respect for privacy, personality and human dignity.
The observance of the Privacy Policy is done in the context of good faith and business ethics and with the free will of the parties, aiming at a good and efficient cooperation with the protection of all.
In case you are unable to exercise your rights under the GDPR, but more generally, in case of questions, clarifications and complaints, you have the right to contact the Personal Data Protection Authority for support and assistance.
COOKIES POLICY
Introduction
Cookies are small pieces of data that a website may store on your computer or mobile phone. The cookie allows the website to "remember" your actions while you are browsing it. Although the majority of browsers, such as Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Safari and Opera, for example, support the use of cookies, however, the user can configure their browser not to accept cookies from the outset or to delete them afterwards.
Usefulness of Cookies
Cookies can perform many functions. They are mainly used to measure the traffic of a website or its individual web pages. For example, the number of visitors live or per hour of the day, their geographical origin, the operating system and resolution of their computer screen, the website from which they came (via a search engine, a link from another page or direct entry), the keyword used in the search engine, etc. Other cookies may remember, for the user's convenience, the choice of language or the results of a search on a website. Others may record the user's unsuccessful attempts to enter a website so that, after a certain number of failed attempts to enter, they (the websites) require further cross-checking of the user's data, for example by entering an additional code sent by SMS to the user's mobile phone.
Use of Cookies
Our website, hereinafter referred to as "the website", stores cookies on the terminal equipment of its visitors in order to improve their browsing experience and to measure its traffic. These cookies do not compromise the privacy and sensitive personal data of users.
CMS cookies
The website is designed on the basis of a Content Management System (CMS), which by default stores cookies on the user's computer to improve the browsing experience on each page. These cookies are called session cookies.
Google Analytics 4 Cookies
Google Analytics 4 uses cookies to report on user interactions on Google Analytics client websites. These cookies are used to store non-personally identifiable information. The Google Analytics cookies that are stored via the website on the user's terminal equipment are as follows:
The cookie called "_ga" is used to identify unique visitors to our website and has a lifetime of two years from the last visit to the website.
The cookie called "_gat" is used to anonymously monitor the visitor's behaviour while browsing our website and has a lifespan of ten minutes from the user's visit to it. Indicatively, it tracks the visitor's website entry and exit from the website, the time spent on each website, etc.
Please note that the lifetime of the above cookies may be changed by Google without prior notice.
CookiesDirective Cookie
After you have given your consent to accept cookies from this website, according to the procedure described below, a cookie called "cookiesdirective" is stored on your terminal equipment, which remembers your consent and has a lifetime of one year from the date of its granting. The practical value of setting this cookie is to avoid the inconvenience of having to give the same consent each time you visit the site.
Obligation of Consent to Save Cookies
The installation and use of cookies is regulated in particular by paragraph 5 of article 4 of Law no. 3471/2006 (which transposed Directive 2002/58/EC into Greek law), according to which the installation and use of cookies is only allowed with the user's consent. A website may install a cookie only if the user concerned has given his/her consent after being clearly and comprehensively informed of the installation, the purpose of the processing, the exercise of the right of access and any recipients of the data. This consent may be given through appropriate settings in the web browser or through another application.
Consent from the Visitor
Given that the Google Analytics 4 cookies are third-party cookies in relation to our website and do not fall as traffic analysis cookies under the exception of par. 5 of article 4 of article 4 of Law no. 3471/2006, we obtain the visitor's consent before storing cookies on his/her terminal equipment. The user has the possibility at any time to delete the cookies stored on this page in his browser through his browser settings.
In particular, the website uses a special plugin, which prevents cookies from being stored on the visitor's terminal equipment, if his/her consent is not first obtained by pressing an acceptance button. Near the acceptance button there is a link to the present Cookies Policy of the website, in which the user can read all the necessary information that will make it easier for him/her to decide whether or not to give consent to accept cookies.

You can delete all cookies that are already on your computer, as well as set most browsers to prevent cookies from being installed. However, in this case, you may have to adjust certain preferences yourself each time you visit a website and some services may not work.
