1. Introduction

This Cookie Policy governs the manner in which the website https://www.castelloprecast.eu/, operated by CASTELLO PRECAST OOD, uses technologies for storing information on, and gaining access to information stored on, users' terminal devices, commonly known as cookies.

The Policy has been drafted in accordance with the requirements of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR), Directive 2002/58/EC on privacy and electronic communications (the ePrivacy Directive), as transposed into the national legislation of the Republic of Bulgaria through the Electronic Communications Act, and the applicable practice of the Bulgarian Commission for Personal Data Protection.

2. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer, smartphone, tablet or other internet-enabled device when you visit a website. They allow the website to recognise your device on subsequent visits, to remember your preferences and to improve the functionality of the services provided.

Cookies may collect the following categories of data:

internet service provider (ISP) and IP address of the device;
type and version of the operating system and the browser;
date, time and duration of the visit;
pages visited and interactions performed with the website;

A distinction should be drawn between first-party cookies, placed directly by https://www.castelloprecast.eu/, and third-party cookies, placed by external providers such as Google and Meta, whose privacy policies operate independently of ours.

Some of the cookies used on castelloprecast.eu are placed under a dynamically generated name that incorporates a unique identifier of the relevant measurement (data) stream or configuration object. In this Policy, such cookies are indicated using asterisk notation (for example, _ga_*), which covers all specific variants of the respective cookie family.

4. Classification of cookies by retention period

Session cookies

Session cookies are stored only for the duration of the active browser session. They are deleted automatically when the browser is closed and leave no persistent data on the device.

Persistent cookies

Persistent cookies are stored on the device for a predefined period, as specified in the tables above, or until they are deleted manually. They allow the website to recognise the user on a return visit.

According to the configuration established during the technical inspection, all cookies identified on castelloprecast.eu, including those relating to the management of the user session, are configured with an express retention period and should therefore be classified as persistent cookies. The periods indicated in the tables reflect the maximum retention time; cookies may also be deleted earlier at the user's initiative.

5. Management and control of cookies by the user

On the first visit to castelloprecast.eu, the user is presented with a cookie management tool (Amasty GDPR Cookie Consent Banner) through which consent may be given or refused by cookie category, other than for strictly necessary cookies. Consent may be withdrawn at any time with effect for the future, without this affecting the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.
