1. Scope and responsible entity
This Cookie Policy explains how the website jrintegrativehealth.com (the “Site”) uses cookies and other similar technologies, for what purposes and how you can control their use.
The entity responsible for the Site is Júlia Rocha Integrative Health (“we”), which can be contacted by email at info@jrintegrativehealth.com or by telephone on +351 913 891 067.
This Policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which provides a full description of how personal data is processed and the rights you have.
2. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your computer, mobile phone or tablet when you visit it, allowing it to recognise the device and remember information while you browse or on subsequent visits.
For the purposes of this Policy, the term “cookies” also covers technologies with an equivalent function, such as browser storage (local storage and session storage), pixels or similar identifiers.
In terms of duration, cookies can be session cookies, which are deleted when you close your browser, or persistent cookies, which remain on your device for a defined period. In terms of origin, they can be first-party cookies, placed by the Site, or third-party cookies, placed by another entity whose service the Site uses.
3. Legal framework
The use of cookies is governed by Law No. 41/2004 of 18 August, as amended by Law No. 46/2012 of 29 August, which transposes Directive 2002/58/EC (the ePrivacy Directive), as well as, where personal data is involved, Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (the General Data Protection Regulation – GDPR) and Law No. 58/2019 of 8 August.
Under this legislation, only cookies that are strictly necessary for the operation of the Site, or for the provision of a service expressly requested by the user, may be used without your consent. All other cookies, particularly those used for analytics, personalisation or advertising, require your prior, freely given, specific, informed and unambiguous consent.
4. Cookies we use
The Site has been designed to collect as little information as possible. As at the date this Policy was last updated:
- We do not use analytics or statistics cookies, or audience measurement tools.
- We do not use advertising, profiling or cross-site tracking cookies.
- We do not embed social media content, videos from external platforms or maps that place cookies on your device; the videos shown on the Site are hosted on the Site itself.
- Technical mechanisms that are strictly necessary for the operation, security and submission of forms on the Site may occasionally be used. These mechanisms are not used to identify you or track your browsing and, because they are essential, do not require consent.
On your first visit, the Site displays a cookie notice that allows you to accept all cookies, reject optional cookies or choose which ones you authorise by category (Statistics and Marketing). Rejecting cookies is as simple as accepting them and does not restrict access to the Site. No optional cookie is used before you give your consent and, should we use tools in those categories in the future, they will only operate if you have authorised them.
Your choice is saved in your browser's local storage under the name “jr-cookie-consent” for 6 months, after which you will be asked again. This record is strictly necessary to respect your decision and is not used to identify you. You can change or withdraw your consent at any time via the “Cookie settings” link in the footer of every page.
5. Third-party services
To display the Site's fonts correctly, we use the Google Fonts service, provided by Google Ireland Limited. When a page loads, your browser retrieves the fonts from Google's servers, which involves transmitting your IP address and technical information about your browser. This service does not place cookies on your device. For more information, you can consult Google's privacy policy at policies.google.com/privacy.
The Site contains links to external websites, such as our pages on Instagram, Facebook and LinkedIn or the Electronic Complaints Book. These links do not place cookies while you remain on the Site; when you follow them, you become subject to the cookie and privacy policies of the respective websites, for which we are not responsible.
6. How to manage and delete cookies
You can view, block or delete the cookies stored on your device at any time through your browser settings. Instructions are available on each browser's help pages:
- Google Chrome: support.google.com/chrome/answer/95647

Please note that blocking strictly necessary cookies may prevent some of the Site's features from working correctly, such as submitting the contact form.
7. Your rights
Whenever the use of cookies or similar technologies involves the processing of personal data, you have the rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, objection and data portability, as well as the right to withdraw consent at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out up to that date.

8. Changes to this Policy
We may update this Policy whenever the technologies used on the Site or the applicable legal framework change. The current version is always available on this page, with the date of the last update indicated. Whenever changes involve the use of cookies that require consent, you will be asked for it in advance.
