Cookie Policy

When you return to the site, the browser sends those files back, so the site can recognise your session, remember your preferences or measure how pages are used. Similar technologies - such as local storage, session storage and small tracking pixels - work in comparable ways, and this policy covers them all under the general term “cookies”.

A cookie typically includes the domain of the website that created it, a value (usually a unique code) and an expiration date. Cookies cannot access other files on your device and are not executable software.

Allegro uses cookies to keep the website secure and functional, to remember the choices you make, to understand which pages are useful, and - where you have agreed - to measure the performance of our marketing. Strictly necessary cookies are set as soon as you open the site because the site cannot work without them. All other categories are only activated after you give consent, and you may withdraw that consent at any time.

Disabling essential cookies will impair website functionality: you may lose login status, be unable to complete forms or proceed through security verification. Disabling preference cookies prevents storing choices like language. Disabling analytics or promotional cookies does not impact site operation - you simply remain excluded from our usage data and promotional assessment.

Some cookies are set by service providers acting on our behalf, for example providers of web analytics, content delivery, fraud prevention or advertising measurement. These providers may read their own cookies when you visit other sites that use the same services. We do not control the content of third-party cookies; their use of the data they collect is governed by their own privacy and cookie notices.

When a third-party cookie is not essential to functionality, it is only set after you provide consent via the cookie notification. Should you require information about current service providers, reach out to our support team for current provider information.

Strictly necessary cookies

These keep the site usable: they maintain your session while you move between pages, balance traffic across servers, protect forms against automated abuse and remember the cookie choices you have already made. They do not build a profile of you and cannot be switched off through our banner, because without them core functions such as signing in would fail.

Preference (functionality) cookies

These remember the settings you choose - for example the interface language, a region, a display preference or whether you have dismissed an informational notice. They make the site more convenient but are not essential; if you refuse them, the site still works and simply asks for your preferences again on each visit.

Analytics (performance) cookies

These help us count visits, see which pages are read, how long people stay and where errors occur. The reporting is aggregated: it tells us that a page is popular or slow, not who you are. We use the results to fix problems and to improve the structure of the site.

Marketing (advertising) cookies

These monitor which specific campaign or advertisement directed you to the site, prevent repeated display of identical messages, and assess whether a campaign resulted in a registration. Advertising partners may view them across different websites. Your explicit consent is required before they are created.

Session cookies remain active only during your browser session and are automatically deleted upon closing the browser. Persistent cookies remain until their expiry date or until you delete them; on this site their lifetimes range from a few days to roughly two years, depending on the purpose. The exact expiry of an individual cookie can always be inspected in your browser’s storage settings.

We keep the record of your consent choices for a limited period so that the banner does not reappear at every visit; after that period we will ask again.

Through our banner

Access the cookie notification or cookie preferences option on the website to permit or deny preference, analytics and promotional cookie groups. Declining a group prevents fresh cookies of that category from being placed; existing cookies can be removed via your browser settings.

Through your browser

All major browsers allow you to view stored cookies, delete them individually or entirely, block cookies from specific sites, block all third-party cookies, or delete everything automatically when the browser closes. You will normally find these controls under a menu named “Settings”, then “Privacy”, “Privacy and security”, “Site permissions” or “Cookies and site data”. Mobile browsers offer the same options in their settings screens, and mobile operating systems provide separate controls for advertising identifiers.

Private browsing

Opening the site in a private or incognito window means most cookies are discarded when you close that window, though this does not prevent them from being set during your visit.

We review this policy periodically and update it when the cookies we use, the technologies behind them or the applicable rules change. The current version is always published on this page; material changes will be signalled on the site or through the cookie banner, and continued use after the update means the revised policy applies.

Should you have concerns regarding this statement, seek details about a particular cookie or want to assert a privacy-related right, please contact our support team via the contact page. Related documents are listed in the footer of every page, including our Privacy Policy.
