Cookie and Related Technologies Policy

This Cookie and Related Technologies Policy (the “Cookie Policy”) describes the use of cookies and related technologies on the website wantacar.gr (the “Website”).

The Website is owned and operated by: ARGYRIOS KATSANTONIS LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY Trade name: WANTACAR Registered office: 160 Liosion Street, Athens Tax Identification Number: 997780569 Tax Authority: Athens A’ Telephone: +30 211 444 2306 Email: info@wantacar.gr

This Cookie Policy should be read together with WANTACAR's Privacy and Personal Data Protection Policy.

Cookies are small files or sets of information that are stored on or retrieved from a user's device when visiting a website.

Depending on their function, cookies may be used, among other things, for the technical operation of a website, maintaining user preferences, security, measuring traffic and performance, or for advertising purposes.

Cookies may be temporary and deleted when the browser is closed, or persistent and remain on the device for a specified period of time or until they are deleted.

They may also be placed either by WANTACAR or by third-party providers whose services are integrated into the Website.

In addition to traditional cookies, the Website may use related technologies such as pixels, tags, scripts, SDKs, local storage or other similar technical mechanisms.

For the purposes of this Policy, references to “cookies” also include, where appropriate, related technologies used for equivalent purposes.

Depending on their purpose, cookies and related technologies used or potentially used on the Website are divided into the following categories.

4.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies

Strictly necessary cookies are required for the basic and secure operation of the Website or to provide a function requested by the user.

They may, indicatively, be used for:

• Website security,
• preventing malicious or abusive use,
• the operation of essential technical mechanisms,
• maintaining necessary technical preferences,
• managing consent and cookie preferences.

Their use does not depend on consent to the extent that they are genuinely technically necessary to provide the service or function requested by the user.

Users may configure their browser to block cookies, but blocking strictly necessary cookies may affect the proper operation of the Website.

4.2 Functionality Cookies

Functionality cookies allow the Website to remember certain choices or preferences and provide enhanced functionality.

Depending on how they are implemented and whether they are necessary for a function explicitly requested by the user, prior consent may be required.

4.3 Statistics and Analytics Cookies

Statistics and analytics cookies are used to understand how visitors use the Website.

They may enable the collection of information about:

• the pages visited by users,
• the duration and manner of use of the Website,
• the source of the visit,
• actions performed on the Website,
• technical characteristics of the device and browser,
• the performance of individual pages and functions.

WANTACAR may use third-party services for these purposes, including tools provided by Google or other analytics providers.

Where the use of these technologies requires consent, they are not activated before the user provides the relevant consent.

4.4 Advertising and Marketing Cookies

Advertising cookies and technologies may be used to measure the effectiveness of advertising activities, attribute conversions to advertising campaigns, create audiences and, where applicable, display more relevant advertising content.

For these purposes, WANTACAR may use advertising platform services such as tools provided by Google and Meta, depending on the Website's technical configuration at any given time.

Where these technologies are not strictly necessary, they are activated only after the user has provided the required consent.

WANTACAR may use Google services for statistical analysis, traffic measurement, advertising and measuring the effectiveness of advertising activities.

Depending on the technical configuration in place, these services may include Google Analytics, Google Ads or other related technologies.

Through these services, technical and online identifiers, data concerning the use of the Website and information about the performance of advertising activities may be processed.

Non-essential Google services that require consent are activated only in accordance with the user's choices through the Website's consent management mechanism.

WANTACAR may use Meta technologies, such as the Meta Pixel, to measure the effectiveness of advertising activities, measure conversions, create relevant audiences and for other related advertising purposes.

Depending on the technical configuration, these technologies may process information about visits and actions performed on the Website, as well as online or technical identifiers.

These technologies are not activated before the required consent has been provided where consent is required.

On the first visit to the Website, users are informed through the consent management mechanism about the use of cookies and related technologies.

Where consent is required, users must be given a genuine choice.

In particular, users must be able to:

• accept optional categories,
• reject optional categories,
• make individual choices by category where this option is provided,
• subsequently change their choices,
• withdraw previously provided consent.

Rejecting non-essential cookies does not prevent access to the basic functions of the Website.

Simply continuing to browse, remaining inactive or closing the relevant notification mechanism do not, by themselves, constitute consent for cookies or technologies that require an affirmative act of consent.

Users may at any time modify or withdraw their choices concerning optional cookies through the cookie management mechanism available on the Website.

Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before consent was withdrawn.

Following withdrawal, the relevant technologies must not be used for future processing based on the withdrawn consent, without prejudice to data whose retention is permitted or required on another lawful basis.

Certain cookies and related technologies may be provided by third-party providers whose services are used on the Website.

In such cases, depending on the service and their role, the third-party provider may process data in accordance with its own policies and terms.

WANTACAR selects and configures third-party services with the aim of complying with applicable personal data protection and electronic communications requirements.

The use of a third-party provider does not make a non-essential cookie strictly necessary and does not remove the requirement for consent where such consent is required.

Certain third-party providers of technology, analytics or advertising services may be established outside the European Economic Area or may use infrastructure, affiliated companies or subcontractors located outside the European Economic Area.

Where personal data is transferred outside the European Economic Area in connection with such services, the mechanisms and safeguards required by applicable data protection law are applied.

Depending on the circumstances, these mechanisms may include an adequacy decision or appropriate contractual and supplementary safeguards.

The lifetime of each cookie depends on its purpose and technical configuration.

Some cookies are deleted at the end of the browsing session, while others remain on the device for a specific period or until deleted by the user.

The exact lifetime of cookies and technologies active on the Website should be reflected in the applicable cookie management mechanism and/or the detailed cookie table provided through it.

WANTACAR does not use a longer retention period than is justified by the purpose of the particular technology.

In addition to the Website's consent management mechanism, users may manage or delete cookies through their browser or device settings.

The available options depend on the browser and device being used.

Completely disabling all cookies through the browser may affect Website functions that rely on technically necessary cookies.

Browser settings do not replace WANTACAR's obligation to obtain prior consent where such consent is required.

Certain data collected through cookies and related technologies may constitute personal data or may be capable of being associated with online identifiers.

Such data is processed in accordance with WANTACAR's Privacy and Personal Data Protection Policy and applicable law.

The rights of data subjects, where applicable, are described in the Privacy Policy.

The tools and technologies used on the Website may change as a result of technical upgrades, changes of providers, the addition of new functionality or changes in WANTACAR's business needs.

WANTACAR reviews this Policy and its consent management mechanism whenever material changes are made to the technologies used.

Any new non-essential technology requiring consent must not be activated before the required consent has been provided.

The actual list of cookies and related technologies depends on the Website's technical configuration at any given time.

For this reason, the detailed list should be based on an actual technical record of active cookies, pixels, tags and other technologies and should be updated whenever the configuration changes.

For each technology, information may, where appropriate, be provided regarding:

• cookie or technology name,
• provider,
• purpose,
• category,
• duration,
• classification as first-party or third-party.

WANTACAR does not attribute a purpose or duration to a cookie or technology that differs from its actual technical operation.

WANTACAR may amend this Cookie Policy when the technologies used, Website services, providers or applicable legal requirements change.

The version currently in force is published on the Website together with the date of its latest update.

Where a change requires new consent, that consent is requested before the relevant processing is activated.
