Cookie Policy

· Version 2026-08-13-v1

1. What cookies are

Cookies are small files stored on your device when you visit a website. The legislation also covers other forms of browser storage, such as session storage — both are included in the list below.

2. Our position, in plain terms

Today the store uses only strictly necessary cookies. We use no analytics and no marketing cookies, and we have installed no third-party tracking tool.

The "Analytics" and "Marketing" categories exist in the settings so the mechanism is ready. Before any such tool is switched on, this policy will be updated with the tool’s name, its provider and the data it collects, and your consent will be requested again.

3. Necessary cookies

These are required for the store to function: signing in to your account, keeping your cart, remembering your language, giving you access to your order confirmation page, and preventing fraud at payment. The store cannot work without them, and for that reason they do not require your consent under the Regulation of Electronic Communications and Postal Services Law (Law 112(I)/2004).

  • cc_cookie — records your cookie choices: consent id, time, the categories you accepted, and the revision of this notice. Duration: 182 days.
  • _medusa_jwt — keeps you signed in to your account. Duration: 7 days.
  • _medusa_cart_id — keeps the contents of your cart between visits. Duration: 7 days.
  • _medusa_cache_id — scopes page caching to your own browser, so you are never shown another visitor’s data. Duration: 7 days.
  • NEXT_LOCALE — remembers your language choice, Greek or English. Duration: browser session.
  • _order_confirm_cart — proves that the cart your order came from belongs to you, so you can see the confirmation page. Duration: 2 hours.
  • _order_confirm_order — proves your access to that specific order when you order as a guest without an account. Duration: 2 hours.
  • __stripe_mid — fraud prevention by our payment provider Stripe. Set when the checkout payment step loads. Duration: about 1 year.
  • __stripe_sid — fraud prevention by Stripe, within the current session. Set when the checkout payment step loads. Duration: about 30 minutes.
  • favorite_intent — not a cookie, but browser session storage. It holds the product you wanted to add to your favourites while you sign in. Duration: browser session, cleared after use.

4. Analytics and marketing — why these ask for explicit consent

Both categories are always off by default and are never pre-ticked.

Because this is a pharmacy, a tracking profile recording which product pages you visited — glucose meters, iron supplements or infant health products, for example — is capable of revealing information about your health. Such processing is permitted only with explicit consent under Article 9(2)(a) GDPR. That is why each category’s description in the settings names that risk expressly: switching the toggle on is your consent to precisely that wording.

5. How to change or withdraw your consent

Choose "Cookie settings" in the footer of any page. You can change or withdraw your consent at any time, as easily as you gave it. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before it.

You can also delete or block cookies in your browser settings. If you block the necessary cookies, the store will not work correctly.

6. Consent records

We record your choice (identifier, time, categories and the revision of this notice) so we can demonstrate that it was validly given. Records are kept for 24 months and then deleted automatically.

When this notice changes substantively, the revision is increased and your consent is requested again.

7. Third-party requests

The site loads flag icons for the language selector from the cdn.jsdelivr.net network, which receives your IP address. It sets no cookies. It is the only third-party request the site makes.
