- and, where required, the use of strictly necessary cookies.
4.5 Statistics and service improvement
Where you have given consent, we may use usage data for statistical purposes, traffic analysis and improvement of our content and services, as well as to protect our lawful rights.
Legal basis for optional statistics: your consent.
5. Important note about health data
Please do not send sensitive health data through the general contact form or ordinary email, such as medical diagnoses, test results, medication details or a detailed medical history, unless we have expressly requested them.
If processing such information becomes necessary while providing services, it will take place only to the extent necessary, with increased confidentiality and with the appropriate legal basis and notice.
6. Cookies and similar technologies
The website uses cookies and similar technologies for its operation, storing preferences, statistical analysis and, potentially, marketing functions.
Your statistics and advertising choices are stored separately in your browser for up to 180 days. The Google tag starts with storage consent denied and updates its signals when you change your choices. With advanced Consent Mode, limited cookieless signals may be sent even without optional consent. Embedded maps and videos load only after you choose “Advertising and media”.
Cookies generally fall into the following categories:
- Strictly necessary / functional cookies: required for the basic operation of the website and cannot be disabled through the consent system.
- Preference cookies: store user choices.
- Statistics cookies: help us understand how the website is used.
- Marketing cookies: used only if you give the relevant consent.
At any time, you can:
- accept or reject the optional cookie categories,
- change your choices through the website's consent management tool,
- delete or block cookies through your browser settings.
Rejecting optional cookies does not affect the basic operation of the website, but it may limit some non-essential features.
For more details, see the Cookie Policy.
7. Who we may share data with
We may share data only where necessary and in accordance with the law, with:
- hosting and technical support providers,
- newsletter or contact email delivery providers,
- analytics or cookie management tool providers,
- providers of review displays or embedded third-party content,
- professional advisers, where necessary,
- competent public authorities, where required by law.
These third parties receive only the data strictly necessary and are contractually or legally bound to protect it.
We do not sell or rent your personal data to third parties.
8. Transfers of data outside the EEA
Some service providers used for technical support, newsletters, analytics or other digital tools may be located outside the European Economic Area.
In such cases, we take appropriate protective measures, such as:
- an adequacy decision by the European Commission, or
- standard contractual clauses, or
- other lawful safeguards provided by legislation.
9. How long we keep your data
We keep personal data only for as long as necessary for the purpose for which it was collected or as required by law.
For example:
- Contact messages: up to 12 months after the last communication, unless there is a reason to retain them longer.
- Appointment requests that do not proceed: up to 12 months.
- Newsletter details: until you unsubscribe or withdraw your consent. After unsubscribing, we may keep limited details on a suppression list solely to ensure that we do not send you newsletters again.
- Technical security logs: for a reasonable and limited period, depending on security and technical support needs.
- Cookie choices in your browser: up to 180 days, unless you change or delete them earlier.
Where the law requires longer retention, or where it is needed to establish, exercise or defend legal claims, the data may be kept for longer.

- rectify inaccurate or incomplete data,
- have data erased where permitted,

11. Right to lodge a complaint
If you believe that the processing of your personal data violates the law, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Hellenic Data Protection Authority (HDPA).
12. Automated decision-making
We do not make decisions based solely on automated processing, including profiling, that produce legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affect you.
13. Third-party links and services
The website may include links to third-party websites or services, as well as third-party content or features such as social media or review display services.
When you visit or interact with those services, your data is processed under their own privacy policies and terms of use. We recommend reading them carefully.
14. Data security
We take appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, loss, alteration or destruction.
However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage can guarantee absolute security.
15. Children's data
The website is not specifically intended for minors, and we do not knowingly seek to collect personal data from people who are below the age required for valid consent under applicable law. If such collection is identified, appropriate steps will be taken to delete the data.
