1. INTRODUCTION

This Cookies Policy explains how barmenteros FX (“barmenteros FX”, “we”, “us”, “our”) uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on our website.

We use cookies to improve user experience, analyze traffic, understand website performance, and remember certain preferences.

This policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy.

2. WHAT ARE COOKIES?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device (computer, smartphone, tablet) when you visit a website.

Cookies may:

  • Store your preferences

  • First-party cookies: set directly by our website
  • Third-party cookies: set by external services integrated into the website

3. TYPES OF COOKIES WE USE

We use four categories of cookies:

3.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies

(Required — cannot be disabled)

These cookies are essential for:

  • Basic website functionality
  • Security
  • Network management
  • Access to restricted areas

These cookies do not require consent (Art. 22.2 LSSI-CE).

Disabling them may affect website usability.

  • Similar performance tools

These cookies collect aggregated, non-identifying information such as:

  • Pages visited

The purpose is to:

  • Improve website usability

3.4 Advertising / Marketing Cookies

(Not always used — only if ad services are integrated)

These track user behavior across websites to display relevant ads.

If barmenteros FX integrates advertising or remarketing in the future, explicit prior consent will be required.

4. THIRD-PARTY COOKIES

Third-party services integrated into our website may store cookies, such as:

  • Google Analytics
  • YouTube (for embedded videos)
  • HubSpot (live chat; it sets no cookies when a page loads, only once you open the chat)
  • Cloudflare (security and CDN caching)
  • Social media plugins (Facebook, X/Twitter, LinkedIn)

These providers have their own privacy and cookies policies. We do not control how third parties use cookies.

5. LEGAL BASIS FOR COOKIES
