Cookie Policy – josimar.dev
Effective date: 28 January 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how josimar.dev (operated by Josimar Carlos) uses cookies and similar technologies.

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help websites function, remember preferences, and understand usage.

Cookies can be:

• Session cookies (deleted when you close your browser)

• Persistent cookies (stay until they expire or you delete them)

2. Cookies we use

A) Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies are required for the website to function properly (e.g., basic page delivery, security). If we use any strictly necessary cookies, they do not require consent under GDPR rules.

Note: Depending on your hosting/platform configuration, necessary cookies may be used for basic security or performance.

B) Analytics cookies (Google Analytics)

We use Google Analytics to measure and improve website performance (e.g., page views, navigation paths, general usage trends).

Analytics cookies may collect:

• Device/browser info

• Interaction events (page views, clicks, time on page)

• Approximate location

• Potentially IP address processing by Google (often used for geolocation/security/measurement)

Consent: Where required by law, analytics cookies are only placed after you provide consent via a cookie banner/settings (if implemented).

3. Google Analytics and data transfers

Google may process analytics data on servers outside the EEA. Where applicable, transfers are typically supported by safeguards like Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) and other measures provided by Google.

If you want maximum GDPR alignment, consider enabling:

• IP anonymization (where available/configured)

• Consent Mode / consent-based loading
  (These are configuration choices; this policy reflects typical usage but your implementation should match.)

4. How to manage cookies

You can control cookies in several ways:

1. Cookie consent banner/settings (recommended)

   • If the site provides cookie settings, you can accept/reject analytics cookies and change your choice later.

2. Browser settings

   • You can delete cookies and block future cookies via your browser settings.

   • Blocking cookies may affect website functionality.

3. Google Analytics opt-out

   • You can use browser controls or Google’s available opt-out options to reduce analytics tracking.

5. Cookie retention

Cookie lifetimes vary:

• Some expire at the end of your session

• Others remain for a defined period (set by Google Analytics and/or your browser)

Retention also depends on the analytics configuration used on the Website.

6. Updates to this Cookie Policy

We may update this policy occasionally to reflect changes in technology or legal requirements. The effective date at the top indicates the latest version.
