This Cookie Policy explains which cookies and similar technologies are used on the website www.bimoq.com (the "Website"), why, and how you can accept, refuse or withdraw your consent to them. It supplements the Website Privacy Policy, which explains how any personal data collected through cookies is processed and what rights you have.
1. WHO WE ARE
The Website is operated by "BIMoQ SINGLE MEMBER P.C." (distinctive title "BIMoQ"), a single-member private company (Greek I.K.E.), G.E.MI. No. 196255901000, Tax Reg. No. (ΑΦΜ) 803406136, 33 Stadiou Street, Athens, Postal Code 10559, Greece (info@bimoq.com; for personal data matters privacy@bimoq.com).
2. WHAT COOKIES ARE
Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your computer or mobile device when you visit it, and reads again on later visits. "Similar technologies" means any other means of storing information on, or reading information from, your device, for example the browser's local storage. In this Policy, "cookies" covers both.
Cookies stored under the Website's own domain are first-party cookies; this includes the Google Analytics cookies, which are stored under the Website's domain but are set and read by Google's code. Cookies stored under another organisation's domain are third-party cookies.
3. WHEN WE NEED YOUR CONSENT
Under article 4 §5 of Law 3471/2006, storing information on your device, or accessing information already stored there, is permitted only with your consent, given after clear and comprehensive information. Consent is not required only for storage or access:
- whose sole purpose is to carry out the transmission of a communication over an electronic communications network; or
- which is strictly necessary to provide a service that you have explicitly requested.
We therefore use without consent only the cookies that fall within those two exceptions ("strictly necessary" cookies). Every other cookie is set only after you have given your consent. Cookies are not exempt from consent merely because they are useful, remember preferences or improve the Website.
4. THE COOKIES WE USE
4.1 Strictly necessary cookies: no consent required
These cookies are needed for the service you ask for: to keep you signed in to your account while you download the software, to keep the account area secure, and to remember the choice you made in the cookie banner. They cannot be switched off through the banner, because the Website cannot provide the requested service without them.
4.2 Analytics cookies: only with your consent
With your consent we use Google Analytics 4, provided by Google, to measure in aggregate how visitors use the public pages of the Website (which pages are visited, how visitors arrive and how they navigate). Google Analytics is not loaded in the account area and is not linked to your account.
Google Analytics cookies are not set, and Google Analytics is not loaded, until you click "Accept all" or switch analytics on in "Cookie settings".
4.3 What we do not use
We do not use advertising, retargeting or social-media cookies. Google Analytics is not linked to any Google Ads account, so the additional advertising cookies that such a link would add are not set.
4.4 List of cookies
| Cookie | Provider | Category | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Account session cookie | bimoq.com (first party) | Strictly necessary | Keeps you signed in to your account and secures the account area | Until you sign out or close the browser |
| Consent cookie | bimoq.com (first party) | Strictly necessary | Records your choices in the cookie banner, so that you are not asked again on every page | 12 months |

5. YOUR CHOICES
When you first visit the Website, a banner asks for your choice. You can:
- click "Accept all": analytics cookies are enabled;
- click "Reject all": only strictly necessary cookies are used; or
- click "Cookie settings": choose category by category.
"Accept all" and "Reject all" are shown side by side and equally prominently. No category other than "strictly necessary" is pre-selected. Continuing to browse, scrolling or closing the banner is not treated as consent.
You can change your mind at any time through the "Cookie settings" link at the foot of every page. Withdrawing consent is as easy as giving it; it stops the use of analytics cookies from that moment and does not affect the lawfulness of their use before withdrawal. Your choice is kept for 12 months, after which we ask you again.
Browser settings. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings. If you block strictly necessary cookies, the account area and the download may not work.
6. THIRD PARTIES AND TRANSFERS
Analytics cookies are read by Google, which provides the Google Analytics service to us. Google belongs to a group established in the United States, and analytics data may be transferred outside the EU/EEA under the safeguards described in Article 7 of the Website Privacy Policy. Information about how Google processes data is available at https://policies.google.com/privacy.
7. CHANGES TO THIS POLICY
If we add or change cookies, we will update this Policy and the list in Article 4.4, and, where a new category needs your consent, we will ask for it again through the banner before using it.
