Cookie policy
What you will find here
This page explains which cookies aetym.com uses, what each one is for, how long it lasts and how you can accept or reject them. It is written from what the website actually does: if that ever changes, this page changes with it.
What cookies are
A cookie is a small file that a website stores in your browser to remember something from one page to the next: that you are signed in, which language you prefer or, as here, what you have decided about cookies themselves. Alongside them there are similar techniques, such as the browser's local storage, which this policy treats in the same way.
Which cookies AETYM uses
AETYM does not use advertising or profiling cookies, either its own or third-party ones, and it does not pass your data to anyone so they can follow you around other websites. We do measure visits with Google Analytics, but only if you accept: it is one of the two things we ask you about.
Separately from that, we count the visits to each listing on our own server, in aggregate and without cookies: we know how many visits a listing had each day, not who made them. That does not depend on what you decide here, because it stores nothing in your browser and cannot identify you.
Our own necessary cookies. These are always set, because the website does not work without them, and that is why they are exempt from asking for consent:
aetym-session — keeps your session while you browse and lets you into the private areas for operators, providers and administration. It expires after eight hours or when you close your browser.
XSRF-TOKEN — protects the website's forms against fraudulent submissions from other sites. It expires with the session.
aetym_cookies — stores what you decide in the cookie window, so that we do not ask you again on every visit. It contains only a yes or a no for each type of cookie and the version of what you were asked: no personal data, not even a visitor identifier. It expires after one year.
Third-party cookies, which we do ask about. There are two things on this website that come from outside, and neither is loaded until you accept it, each one separately:
Visit measurement (Google Analytics) — it tells us which pages are visited and where people come from, so we can keep improving the website. It stores the cookies _ga and _ga_ followed by the property identifier in your browser, both lasting two years, which tell one visit from another without knowing who you are. We do not use them for advertising. If you reject it, nothing from Google Analytics is loaded.
Google Maps — the maps on listings and searches can be displayed with Google Maps. If you accept, Google loads its own code and may store cookies and other data in your browser, with the names, purposes and periods that Google itself decides; you will find them in its privacy policy. Until you accept, AETYM loads nothing from Google: maps are drawn with OpenStreetMap, which stores nothing in your browser. Even so, when they are drawn the OpenStreetMap server receives your IP address, as happens with any image a website loads from somewhere else.
Listings may also show the rating, the reviews and the photos those centres have published on Google. The photos are loaded from Google's servers, which receive your IP address, but they do not set cookies for that reason.
How you decide
The first time you arrive, AETYM asks you in a window with two buttons of the same size: Accept and Reject. Rejecting takes exactly as much effort as accepting, and until you answer nothing beyond the necessary is loaded. Under Choose one by one you can decide on each item separately.
You can change your mind whenever you like: at the foot of any page there is a Cookie settings link that opens that window again. Your new choice replaces the previous one from that moment on, and if you withdraw your permission we stop loading what you had accepted.
If we ever add something new that needs your permission, the window will appear again to ask you: what you decided before is not permission for something different.
How to manage or delete them in your browser
Delete them: you can remove the cookies already on your device by clearing your browsing history. That clears the cookies of every site you have visited, so you will also lose sessions and preferences saved on other websites.
Manage them site by site: every browser lets you see and delete the cookies of a particular website from its privacy settings.
Block them: you can also set your browser to refuse cookies. If you block the necessary ones, the website will still be readable, but you will not be able to sign in or send forms, and we will ask you about cookies on every visit, because there will be nowhere to remember your answer.
Instructions for the most common browsers:
