Cookie and Similar Technologies Policy

1 What are cookies and similar technologies

Cookies are small text files stored in the browser or on the user's device when visiting a website.

In addition to cookies, the website may use other similar technologies, such as localStorage and sessionStorage, which allow preferences and technical information to be stored on the user's device.

2 What they are used for

These technologies may be used to:

• ensure the technical functioning of the website
• remember user preferences, such as language or visual theme
• maintain authenticated sessions in restricted areas
• improve the browsing experience
• support internal features and technical performance

3 Technologies currently used on the website

Based on the current site configuration, essentially necessary or functional technologies are used.

Strictly necessary or functionally requested cookies

The website may use its own cookies to:

• save language preference — lang_pref
• maintain authentication in restricted areas — auth_token and hosts_portal_token, when the user accesses protected areas

Without these cookies, certain features may not work correctly.

Local browser storage

The website may also store preferences and technical information locally in the browser, including:

• visual theme preference — tasco-tema
• temporary technical interface data, cache or performance data
• functional information required for restricted or internal areas

These technologies are not, in themselves, used for behavioral advertising.

4 Statistics and technical logs

The website may carry out limited internal technical logs on page usage for operational, basic statistical, security and maintenance purposes.

According to the current configuration, these logs are made primarily on the server side and do not, at this stage, correspond to the use of advertising, profiling or third-party behavioral tracking cookies.

5 Non-essential cookies

In the current website configuration, marketing, behavioral advertising or profiling cookies such as Google Analytics, Meta Pixel, Hotjar, Clarity or similar are not intentionally used.

If non-essential cookies or technologies are introduced in the future, Tasco Agency will update this policy and request user consent where legally required.

6 Legal basis and consent

Under applicable legislation, storing information or accessing information already stored on the user's device generally requires prior consent, except where this is:

• strictly necessary to carry out an electronic communication
• strictly necessary to provide a service expressly requested by the user

For this reason, technical, functional and authentication cookies necessary for the website's operation or requested by the user themselves may be used without additional consent.

Non-essential cookies, where they exist, should only be activated after valid user consent, when required by law.

7 How to manage cookies

Users may, at any time:

• delete cookies already stored in the browser
• block new cookies through browser settings
• remove data stored in localStorage and sessionStorage
• configure the browser to warn before saving cookies

Disabling cookies or local storage may affect the normal functioning of certain areas and features of the website.

8 Users in Brazil and Colombia

Where applicable, Tasco Agency will also endeavor to respect the principles of transparency, necessity and information set out in the relevant data protection legislation for users located in Brazil and Colombia, without prejudice to this policy being primarily framed by Portuguese and European legislation.

10 Updates to this policy

Tasco Agency may update this Cookie and Similar Technologies Policy at any time where there are relevant legal, technical or operational changes. The most recent version will always be available on the website.
