1. About this policy

This Cookie Policy explains how cookies and similar technologies are used on dotaris.com.

The website is operated by DOTARIS, a company registered in Portugal.

2. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They may be used to enable technical functions, remember choices, measure website usage or understand how visitors interact with pages.

Similar technologies, such as local storage, tags and scripts, may perform comparable functions. References to cookies in this policy include these technologies where relevant.

3. Cookies used on this website

This website is static and does not use user accounts, shopping baskets, online payments or personalised services.

We use:

  • essential technologies, where necessary for the website or consent controls to operate correctly;
  • analytics cookies and similar technologies associated with Google Analytics and Microsoft Clarity, used to understand website traffic and visitor interaction.

Analytics technologies are not required for the website to function and should only be activated after you have provided consent, where consent is legally required.

4. Essential technologies

Essential technologies may be used to provide core website functions, maintain security or store your cookie consent choices.

These technologies cannot normally be disabled through the website’s consent controls because they are necessary for the requested service or for the website to remember your privacy preferences. You may still block them through your browser, although doing so may affect some functionality.

The exact essential cookie used to store consent preferences depends on the consent management implementation configured on the website.

5. Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors reach and use the website. This may include information about visits, sessions, approximate location, device and browser characteristics, pages viewed and navigation patterns.

Google Analytics may set the following first-party cookies:

  • _ga — used to distinguish visitors; its default duration is up to two years;
  • _ga_<measurement-id> — used to maintain session state; its default duration is up to two years.

The exact cookie name containing the measurement identifier depends on the Google Analytics property configured on the website. Durations may also be changed through the Google Analytics settings or limited by the browser.

Google Analytics should not receive personally identifiable information entered into the contact form.

6. Microsoft Clarity

We use Microsoft Clarity to understand how visitors interact with the website, including navigation, clicks, scrolling and session behaviour. Clarity may use pseudonymous identifiers to connect page views and generate aggregated usage information.

Depending on the service configuration and visitor consent, Clarity may use cookies including:

  • _clck — retains a pseudonymous Clarity visitor identifier and preferences for this website;
  • _clsk — connects multiple page views into a single Clarity session;
  • CLID — identifies when Clarity first encountered a browser;
  • ANONCHK, MR, MUID and SM — Microsoft cookies used for technical, analytics or identifier synchronisation purposes.

The exact cookies and their duration may vary according to Microsoft’s current configuration, browser behaviour and the consent choices made by the visitor.

Microsoft Clarity should be configured not to collect the content entered into the contact form or other fields containing personal data.

7. Consent and cookie controls

When you first visit the website, you should be given the option to accept or reject analytics cookies before they are activated, where required by applicable law.

Rejecting analytics cookies should not prevent you from accessing the website or using the contact form.

You may change or withdraw your consent at any time through the cookie settings made available on the website. Withdrawal does not affect processing that took place lawfully before consent was withdrawn.

8. Third-party processing and international transfers

Google Analytics and Microsoft Clarity are provided by third parties and may process technical or analytics data outside the European Economic Area, including in the United States.

Where international transfers occur, they are subject to the safeguards made available by the relevant provider under applicable data protection law, which may include adequacy decisions, the EU–US Data Privacy Framework and Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission.

Further information about personal data processing is available in our Privacy Policy.

9. Managing cookies through your browser

Most browsers allow you to view, delete or block cookies through their privacy or security settings.

Browser controls operate independently from the consent choices available on this website. Blocking or deleting cookies may remove stored preferences and may cause the consent banner to be displayed again.

10. Changes to this policy

We may update this Cookie Policy when the website, its analytics tools, cookie configuration or applicable legal requirements change.

The current version will always be published on this page and identified by its “Last updated” date.
