This Cookie Policy explains how Oilmania (“we”, “us”, “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit oilmania.gr (the “Website”).
This Policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy, available at:
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer, smartphone, tablet or other device when you visit a website.
Cookies allow websites to recognise a user’s device and perform various functions, such as maintaining the contents of a shopping cart, keeping a user signed in, remembering preferences and supporting the secure operation of an online store.
Some cookies are deleted automatically when you close your browser (“session cookies”), while others may remain on your device for a defined period (“persistent cookies”).
Cookies may also be:
- First-party cookies, which are placed directly by the Website you are visiting; or
- Third-party cookies, which are placed by external services used by the Website.
2. How We Use Cookies
The Website currently uses cookies that are necessary for the operation of the Website and online store.
These cookies support functions including:

- remembering products added to your cart;
- maintaining a customer session while you browse the store;
- supporting checkout and order processing;
- maintaining account/login sessions where customer accounts are enabled;
- remembering certain Website preferences where applicable; and
- supporting the security and proper technical operation of the Website.
Strictly necessary cookies are required in order for the Website and online store to operate correctly.
They cannot generally be disabled through our Website because doing so may prevent functions such as the shopping cart, checkout or customer account from working correctly.

4. Payment Services
When you proceed to checkout, payments may be processed using:
[[[PAYMENT PROVIDER(S) – e.g. Viva.com / Stripe / PayPal / Bank Redirect / etc.]]]
Depending on the selected payment method, a payment provider may use cookies or similar technologies that are necessary to process a payment securely, prevent fraud or authenticate a transaction.
Where a third-party payment provider sets its own cookies, the provider is responsible for those cookies in accordance with its own privacy and cookie policies.

5. Analytics Cookies
At present, we do not use cookies for website analytics or visitor profiling.
In particular, the Website does not currently use services such as Google Analytics for tracking Website visitors.
If analytics tools are introduced in the future and their use requires consent under applicable law, this Cookie Policy will be updated and such cookies will not be activated until the visitor has provided the required consent.
6. Advertising and Marketing Cookies
At present, we do not use advertising, behavioural-profiling or remarketing cookies.
The Website does not currently use technologies such as the Meta Pixel, Google Ads remarketing tags or similar advertising trackers for the purpose of tracking visitors across websites or creating advertising profiles.
If such technologies are introduced in the future, this Cookie Policy and the Website’s cookie-consent mechanism will be updated as necessary before those technologies are activated for visitors who have not provided the legally required consent.
7. Third-Party Content and Services
Certain Website functions may rely on external service providers.
Where third-party content is embedded into a webpage—for example, videos, maps, social-media content or other externally hosted services—the third party may place or access cookies or similar technologies.
Where such technologies are not strictly necessary, they will be subject to the visitor’s consent where required by applicable law.
The Website currently uses the following third-party embedded services:
The Website does not currently use third-party embedded content that places non-essential cookies.
8. Your Cookie Choices
Strictly necessary cookies do not require consent where they are required to provide a service specifically requested by the user or are necessary for the technical operation of that service.
Because the Website currently uses only cookies that are necessary for its operation and the provision of requested ecommerce functionality, these cookies may be placed without requesting prior consent where permitted by applicable law.
If the Website introduces optional cookies, such as analytics, advertising or other tracking technologies, visitors will be provided with an appropriate mechanism to accept or reject those cookies before they are activated where consent is legally required.
Any optional cookies will remain disabled until the required consent has been provided.
Where a cookie-preference mechanism is provided, visitors will also be able to withdraw or modify their consent through that mechanism.
