Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device (computer, tablet or mobile phone) when you visit it. They allow the website to "remember" information about your visit, making your experience smoother and more consistent.
Cookies are classified by origin (first-party or third-party), by lifetime (session or persistent) and by purpose (strictly necessary, functional, analytical, advertising).
This website uses only strictly necessary and functional cookies. We do not use tracking, analytics or advertising cookies.

The use of cookies on this website is governed by Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR), Directive 2009/136/EC (on the processing of personal data and the protection of privacy in the electronic communications sector), and the Portuguese national legislation transposing it: Law No. 41/2004 of 17 August, as amended by Law No. 46/2012 of 29 August.
The PHPSESSID and locale cookies fall within the exemptions to the consent requirement set out in Article 5(3) of Directive 2002/58/EC and Article 14 of Law No. 41/2004:
PayPal cookies are set by a third party in the context of a transaction initiated by the user. Responsibility for the processing of that data lies exclusively with PayPal, Inc.
Since all first-party cookies used are strictly necessary or exclusively functional (no profiling, no analytics, no advertising), this website is not required to request prior consent for their installation, pursuant to Article 14(5) of Law No. 41/2004 and Directive 2009/136/EC.
An unobtrusive informational notice is nonetheless displayed on first visit, in compliance with the transparency principle enshrined in Article 13 of the GDPR. This notice does not require any user action to access the website's content.
You can configure your browser to refuse or delete cookies. Please note that disabling the PHPSESSID cookie will prevent the checkout process from working correctly.
