What cookies are. They are small files stored on your device when you open a website. They allow the site to “remember” you and your choices, either for a single visit or for future visits. Some are deleted when you close your browser; others remain until they expire or you delete them.

We do not use marketing cookies. We do not display advertisements, track you on other websites, or sell or rent your data.
Who else is involved. Measurement cookies are set by Google through the Analytics service. Card payments are processed by Cardlink (Eurobank), the shop’s card payment provider: for payment, you are transferred to the bank’s own page, where the bank sets its own cookies — none of these are stored on grifon.gr. Google’s reCAPTCHA also operates in the contact forms and checkout; it distinguishes a person from an automated program and loads as soon as you interact with a form. Google may process data outside the European Union.
Google’s reCAPTCHA loads only on pages with a form and only when you begin filling it in. It does not store a cookie on grifon.gr; it may use its own cookies on the google.com domain, in accordance with Google’s privacy policy.
Embedded video and map. The home page contains a video from YouTube and a Google map. Both belong to Google services and, when loaded, may place their own cookies. For this reason, they do not load automatically: instead, you see a box with the “Show content” button. They load only if you click it or if you have already clicked “I accept” in the cookie message.
How you give and withdraw consent. On your first visit, a message appears with two buttons: “I accept” and “No, I do not accept”. Until you answer, only strictly necessary cookies are enabled. If you click “No, I do not accept”, no measurement cookies are placed — and any that may already have been placed are deleted. You can change your decision at any time through the “Cookie settings” link at the bottom of every page. On small screens, the two buttons appear in shortened form as “YES” and “NO”.
How long your answer lasts. We ask your browser to remember the answer for one year. Some browsers — especially Safari on iPhone, iPad and Mac — limit this period themselves to a few days, which we cannot change. If this happens, you will see the message again sooner. This is not an error: until you answer again, only strictly necessary cookies are enabled.
How to control them in your browser. Every browser has cookie settings, usually in the “Settings → Privacy and security” menu. From there you can view, delete or block them. If you block everything, some shop functions — login and the basket — will not work.
What we retain from your answer. When you answer the message, we record the answer, date, network address and browser so that we can prove consent. This information is retained for one year and is not used for any other purpose.
Your rights. You may request access to, correction or deletion of your data, and object to its processing, by writing to info@grifon.gr. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Hellenic Data Protection Authority: Kifisias 1-3, postcode 115 23, Athens · telephone 210 6475600 · contact@dpa.gr · www.dpa.gr.
Changes. We may update this policy. The current version applies from 7 September 2026.
