Cookie Policy
This Cookie Policy explains how Havado Gafopa uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit havado-gafopa.info. It is meant to be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which provides broader context for how we handle personal information.
What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device when you visit. They are widely used to make websites function properly, to improve user experience, and to provide information to site owners about how their sites are used. Cookies are not programs and cannot execute code or deliver viruses.
Similar technologies include local storage, session storage, and pixel tags. Where this policy refers to "cookies," it covers these similar technologies unless stated otherwise. Cookies can be "session cookies," which expire when you close your browser, or "persistent cookies," which remain on your device until they expire or you delete them.
Types We Use
We use two categories of cookies on this Site: strictly necessary cookies that are required for the Site to function, and optional analytics cookies that help us understand how visitors use the Site. We do not use advertising cookies, behavioral tracking cookies, or cookies that share data with ad networks or data brokers.
Each category is described in detail below, including the specific cookies involved, their purpose, and how long they persist on your device.
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for the Site to operate. They cannot be disabled without breaking core Site functionality. They do not collect information for marketing purposes and are not used to track you across other websites.
| Cookie Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
hgi_consent |
Stores your cookie consent preferences so the consent banner is not shown on every page visit | 12 months |
hgi_session |
Maintains basic session state for the current visit | Session |
Because these cookies are strictly necessary, they are set without requiring your consent. You may disable them through your browser settings, but doing so may prevent parts of the Site from working as intended.
Analytics Cookies
With your consent, we use analytics cookies to collect aggregated, anonymized information about how visitors interact with the Site. This helps us understand which pages are visited most, how visitors navigate through the Site, and where technical issues may exist. This information is used only to improve the Site's content and functionality.
| Cookie Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
_ga |
Google Analytics: distinguishes unique users for aggregate traffic analysis. IP anonymization is enabled. | 2 years |
_ga_* |
Google Analytics: maintains session state for analytics measurement | 2 years |
Analytics cookies are only set if you accept them through the consent banner. Google Analytics is configured with IP anonymization enabled and advertising features disabled. Data collected through analytics cookies is not used for ad targeting. You can opt out of Google Analytics across all websites by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
Third-Party Cookies
Certain third-party services embedded in this Site may set their own cookies. These are outside our direct control and are subject to the privacy policies of the respective third parties.
Google Maps. The contact page embeds a Google Maps iframe. When this map loads, Google may set cookies associated with your Google account or browsing session. These cookies are governed by Google's Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy, available at policies.google.com. If you prefer not to have Google Maps cookies set, you may disable the map iframe through your browser's content blocking settings.
Google Fonts. Fonts used on this Site are loaded from Google's servers. While we load fonts in a manner designed to minimize data transfer, Google's servers may log the request. No persistent tracking cookies are set by this font loading mechanism.
We do not embed social media widgets, advertising pixels, or any other third-party tracking technology beyond those described above.
Managing Cookies
You can control and delete cookies through your browser settings. All major browsers allow you to view, manage, and delete cookies stored on your device. The process varies by browser:
- Google Chrome: Settings > Privacy and Security > Cookies and other site data
- Mozilla Firefox: Settings > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data
- Safari: Preferences > Privacy > Manage Website Data
- Microsoft Edge: Settings > Cookies and site permissions > Manage and delete cookies
Please be aware that disabling cookies may affect your experience on this and other websites. Deleting cookies will also reset your consent preferences, which means the consent banner will appear again on your next visit.
Your Consent
When you first visit this Site, a consent banner is displayed at the bottom of the screen. The banner presents a clear explanation of cookie categories and allows you to accept all cookies, accept only strictly necessary cookies, or customize your preferences by category. Your choice is stored in the hgi_consent cookie for 12 months.
You may change your consent preferences at any time by clearing your cookies and revisiting the Site, which will cause the consent banner to reappear. You may also contact us directly at [email protected] to request that we remove any data associated with your visit.
Strictly necessary cookies do not require consent and will be set regardless of your selection. Only optional categories (analytics) are subject to your consent choice.
Policy Updates
This Cookie Policy may be updated from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use, changes in applicable law, or changes in third-party services we embed. When we make material changes, we will update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this document. If changes materially affect how we use cookies that were previously consented to, we will reset consent preferences and present the consent banner again on your next visit.
