Cookie Policy
Last updated: August 2026
1. About this policy
This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, which ones we use on thecyprusplanetarium.com (the "Website"), and how you can control them. The Website is operated by V&G Planetarium Limited, trading as The Cyprus Planetarium, registered in Cyprus under number HE 435019, which is the data controller. For how we handle personal data more generally, please see our Privacy Policy.
Your cookie choices apply to the domain thecyprusplanetarium.com and its subdomains. The domain and the hosting of the Website are held by V&G Planetarium Limited. The Website platform is supplied by AMS Media, which acts as our data processor and sets no cookies for its own purposes.
2. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. Similar technologies, including local storage, session storage, pixels and software development kits, work in much the same way, and this policy covers them too. Some cookies keep the Website working and secure. Others help us understand how the Website is used.
Cookies and identifiers that recognise your device, or that link activity to you, are personal data under the GDPR, and we treat them accordingly.
3. Your consent
Only strictly necessary cookies are set when you arrive. Every other cookie, including analytics, functional and any advertising cookie, is set only after you have given your consent through our cookie banner.
Refusing is as easy as accepting. The banner presents a clear "Reject non-essential" option alongside "Accept", at the same level of prominence, and refusing has no effect on your ability to browse the Website or to make a booking. We do not treat continued browsing, scrolling or closing the banner as consent, and no non-essential cookie is set unless you actively agree.
You can change or withdraw your choice at any time by opening Cookie settings from the link in the footer of any page. Withdrawing consent stops any further use of those cookies. It does not undo processing that has already taken place lawfully.
We ask for your consent again at least every 12 months, and whenever we introduce a new category of cookie or a materially new purpose.
4. The cookies we use
Strictly necessary. Always on. No consent required, because the Website cannot function without them.

Functional and advertising. We do not currently set any third party functional cookies or any advertising cookies. If that changes, this policy will be updated and your consent will be requested before any such cookie is used.
We keep this list under review and update it whenever the cookies on the Website change. If you find a cookie on the Website that is not listed here, please tell us at info@planetariumcyprus.com.
5. Embedded content and social media
Where our pages link to Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, X or LinkedIn, following a link takes you to a third party website that sets its own cookies and applies its own privacy policy.
6. Server logs
Standard server logs are kept on the infrastructure serving the Website, which may record your IP address, the pages requested and the time of the request. These are kept on our behalf and remain under our control. These are used for security, fraud prevention and diagnosing technical problems, on the basis of our legitimate interests, and they are not cookies. They are covered by our Privacy Policy.
7. Managing cookies in your browser
In addition to our cookie banner, every major browser lets you block or delete cookies through its settings. Blocking strictly necessary cookies will prevent parts of the Website, including signing in, the basket and checkout, from working. General guidance is available at allaboutcookies.org.
8. Changes to this policy
We update this policy whenever the cookies we use change, and we publish the updated version on this page with the date at the top amended accordingly.
