Cookies are small files a website stores in your browser. Similar technologies (such as local storage or tracking pixels) work in a similar way, and this policy covers them too. This page explains which ones we use and how you control them.
1. How we use cookies
- Strictly necessary: needed for the site to work or to remember your cookie choice. They don't need your consent and can't be switched off.
- Analytics: tell us how many people visit, which pages they read and where they come from, so we can improve the site. Only with your consent.
- Advertising: measure whether our ads (for example on Google) lead to requests. Only with your consent, and only while we run ads.
Analytics and advertising cookies are off until you accept them in the cookie banner. Until then, Google tags on the site do not set or read those cookies.
2. Cookies on this site
| Cookie | Provider | Purpose | Duration | Type |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cookie banner choice (name depends on the consent tool) | kos-handyman.gr | Remembers which cookies you accepted or refused | Up to 12 months | Strictly necessary |
| kh_admin | kos-handyman.gr | Keeps our own team logged in to the site's back office; never set for visitors | 30 days | Strictly necessary |
| _ga | Google (Analytics) | Tells visits from the same browser apart | 2 years | Analytics |
| _ga_<ID> | Google (Analytics) | Keeps the state of the current visit | 2 years | Analytics |
| _gcl_au | Google (Ads) | Measures whether ad clicks lead to quote requests | 3 months | Advertising |
The cookie banner always shows the current, complete list of the cookies in each category. Some cookies only appear if the related service is turned on.
Security check. The quote form uses Cloudflare Turnstile, which looks at technical details of your browser to tell people from bots. It is needed to protect the form and is not used to track you.
Fonts and photos. The site's fonts are served from our own server, and photos come from Cloudflare's network. Neither sets cookies.
3. Changing your choice
You can change or withdraw your consent at any time with the “Cookie settings” link at the bottom of every page. Withdrawing consent does not affect what happened before.
You can also delete or block cookies in your browser settings. If you block all cookies, the site still works, but your cookie choice won't be remembered. To stop Google Analytics on all sites, you can install Google's opt-out add-on (opens in a new tab).
4. Other services
When you press WhatsApp or Viber, you leave the site for those apps, which use their own cookies under their own policies. Google's processing is described at policies.google.com/privacy (opens in a new tab).
