Legal — Cookie Policy
How Volmari uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit our website.
Contents
§ 01
Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device when you visit. They help the site remember information about your visit, which can make it easier to return and improve the site's usefulness to you.
Cookies themselves do not contain personally identifying information in readable form. However, personal data that we store about you may be linked to the information stored in and obtained from cookies.
In addition to cookies, we may use similar tracking technologies including web beacons (also known as pixel tags), local storage objects, and session storage. This policy covers all such technologies collectively.
§ 02
We use cookies for the following purposes:
We do not use cookies to build personal profiles for resale, to target advertisements on third-party websites based on your browsing behaviour, or to infer sensitive personal characteristics.
§ 03
These cookies are required for the website to function and cannot be switched off. They are usually set only in response to actions you take, such as submitting a form or setting your privacy preferences. You can set your browser to block these cookies, but some parts of the site may then not work as intended.
These cookies allow us to count visits and understand how visitors navigate the site. All data collected is aggregated and does not identify individual users. We use this information to improve how the website works. These cookies are set only with your consent.
These cookies may be set by advertising services we use, including Google and Meta (Facebook). They help us measure whether our advertising reaches people who find our services relevant. These cookies are set only with your consent and do not enable us to serve targeted advertisements on third-party sites to individual users based on your visit.
§ 04
Some cookies on this site are set by third-party services we use. These third parties have their own privacy policies and cookie practices, which govern how they use information collected through their cookies.
The third-party services whose cookies may be present on this site include:
We review our list of third-party services periodically. If you wish to understand each provider's data practices in detail, we encourage you to read their respective privacy policies directly.

§ 06
When you first visit our website, a consent banner allows you to accept all cookies or accept essential cookies only. You may change your preference at any time by clearing the volmari_consent cookie from your browser and reloading the page, which will cause the consent banner to reappear.
Most browsers allow you to refuse or delete cookies through their settings. The steps vary by browser; guidance for common browsers is available below:
Blocking all cookies will affect the functionality of many websites, including this one. If you block essential cookies, certain features — such as remembering your cookie preference — will not work as intended.
You can opt out of Google Analytics across all websites by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
To opt out of interest-based advertising through many participating companies, you may use the Network Advertising Initiative Opt-Out Tool or the Digital Advertising Alliance Opt-Out Tool.
For mobile devices, your operating system settings typically include options to limit ad tracking.
§ 07
Some browsers include a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that sends a signal to websites requesting that your browsing not be tracked. There is currently no agreed standard for how websites should respond to DNT signals, and our site does not alter its data collection practices based on DNT signals at this time. We will revisit this position if an industry standard emerges.
§ 08
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, regulation, or our operational practices. When we make material changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page.
We encourage you to review this policy periodically. Your continued use of the website following any update constitutes your acknowledgement of the revised policy.
§ 09

For matters relating to personal data under the Personal Data (Privacy) Ordinance (Cap. 486), you may also contact the Office of the Privacy Commissioner for Personal Data Hong Kong at pcpd.org.hk.
Our team is glad to address any concerns about privacy, cookies, or how we handle your information.
