Cookie Policy
VANADI® makes every effort to protect the privacy and security of the data we collect from visitors using our website, and we act as the Data Controller under the relevant data protection laws and regulations.
Our website uses technologies that enhance usability and interaction to ensure its smooth operation and to provide web services and features to each visitor.
Examples of these technologies include cookies, pixel tags, local storage, and scripts (collectively referred to as “cookies”). This helps us provide you with a good experience, improve our service, and show you both personalized and non-personalized content and advertisements.
This Cookie Policy describes the types of cookies used on the website and the purposes for which we use them. If you have any questions about this Cookie Policy, please note that the Data Controller is VANADI S.A.

Please read this Cookie Policy carefully to learn more about why we use cookies and what information they provide about you.
What is a cookie?
Cookies are small data files that websites transfer to computers or devices to keep records and improve website functionality. Websites can read these files, which allow them to identify a user when they visit repeatedly.
- First-party cookies are those created by the website the user is visiting (e.g., cookies created by our website’s domain).
- Third-party cookies are those created by a domain other than the website the user is visiting. If a user visits a website and another entity creates a cookie through that website, that would be a third-party cookie.
- Persistent cookies: These cookies remain on the user’s device for the period specified in the cookie. They are activated each time the user visits the website that created them.
- Session cookies: These cookies allow website operators to link different user actions during a browsing session. A browsing session begins when a user opens a browser window and ends when they close it. Session cookies are created temporarily.
When the browser is closed, all session cookies are deleted.
What types of cookies are typically used and what is their function?
Generally speaking, websites use cookies to distinguish between different users. This helps provide a good experience when browsing the website and also allows for improvements. The cookies we may use are categorized as follows:
- Strictly necessary
- Functionality
- Performance
- Marketing
Some cookies may serve more than one of these purposes.
- “Strictly necessary” cookies enable you to navigate the website and use essential features, such as secure areas. Without these cookies, we cannot provide the requested services and ensure the highest quality of service for an optimal website experience.
- We use “strictly necessary” cookies for the following purposes:
- To identify you as a logged-in user and authenticate you.
- To ensure you connect to the appropriate website service when we make changes to its operation.
- For security purposes.
If you block these cookies, we cannot guarantee the website’s functionality or security during your visit.
“Functionality” cookies are used to provide you with services or to remember your settings to enhance your visit.
- For example, we use “functionality” cookies for the following purposes:
- To remember the settings you have applied to the website’s design, text size, preferences, and colors.
- To remember if we have already invited you to complete a survey.
- To remember if you have already interacted with a particular component or list on the website, in order to avoid repeating it.
- To show you if you are logged into the website.
- To provide and display embedded video content on the site.
- “Performance” cookies collect information about how you use the website (for example, which pages you visit and whether you have experienced any errors). These cookies do not collect information that identifies you and are only used to help us improve the website’s performance, understand our users’ interests, and measure the effectiveness of our advertisements.
“Performance” cookies are used for the following purposes:
- To conduct site analytics: to provide statistics on how the website is used.
- For affiliate tracking: to inform our affiliates that one of our visitors has also visited their website.
- To obtain data on the number of website users who have viewed a product or service.
- To measure errors that occur on the website in order to improve it.
- To test different website designs.
Some performance cookies are managed by third parties.
Marketing cookies are used to track your visit to this and other websites, applications, and online services, such as the pages you have visited and the links you have followed. This allows us to show you both personalized and non-personalized ads on the website.
Marketing cookies:
- To display both personalized and non-personalized ads on our website and on third-party websites and services.
- To improve how we show you personalized and non-personalized content and ads, as well as to measure the success of advertising campaigns on the website.
When would we ask for your consent?
Cookies that are essential for an online service (for example, strictly necessary security cookies, functional cookies that allow the website to remember the contents of your online shopping cart, or session cookies for load balancing and to help page content load quickly) do not require your consent.
However, we do request your consent before placing non-essential cookies (for example, marketing cookies) on your device. You can give your consent by clicking the “Allow all cookies” button in the banner that appears on the screen. If at any time you decide to deny or withdraw your consent for performance, functionality, or marketing cookies, you can click the cookie management button. You can also delete, block, or disable cookies through your browser settings. This is explained in more detail below.
Please note that disabling these cookies will affect the functionality of the website, and certain features may become inaccessible.

However, if you use your browser settings to block all cookies (including those that are strictly necessary), you may lose access to our website, either partially or completely. Unless you have changed your browser settings to reject cookies, our system will send you cookies as soon as you visit the website.

How are website analytics performed?
When statistical information about website usage is needed to provide a user-friendly design and to improve services, the web analytics tool described in this section is used. The usage profiles created by this tool using cookies or by analyzing server log files (see information above) are not combined with personal data. Specifically, the tool anonymizes IP addresses during data collection.
The following section provides information about the tool’s most common provider and how you can opt out of its data collection and processing. Please note that the tool may use “opt-out cookies” to remember your opt-out. This opt-out function is linked to a device or browser and is therefore valid only for the device or browser you are currently using. If you use multiple devices or browsers, you will need to opt out on all of them. You can also generally prevent the creation of usage profiles by completely disabling the use of cookies.
Google Analytics
Google Analytics is a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc. (“Google”). Google uses cookies to help us analyze how users use the website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the website (including your IP address) will be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States.
If IP anonymization is activated, Google will truncate or anonymize the last octet of the IP address for users from member states of the European Union and other parties to the Agreement on the European Economic Area.
Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to Google servers in the USA and shortened there. On behalf of the website, Google uses this information to evaluate your use of the website and to compile reports on website activity for us and third parties who assist us in operating and providing website-related services.
Google will not associate your IP address with any other data held by Google. If you wish to refuse the use of these cookies, you can select the appropriate settings on your browser as described in this policy.
However, please note that this may prevent you from fully utilizing the website’s functions. You can also prevent Google from collecting and using data (cookies and IP address) by downloading and installing the browser add-on available at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en-GB.
For more information about the terms of use and data privacy, please visit http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/gb.html or https://policies.google.com/?hl=en&gl=uk.
