Cookie Policy

 

Last updated: May 3, 2025

This Cookie Notice describes how GJUHA | Albanian Language Center (“Company”, “we”, “us”, and “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies to recognize you when you visit our website at https://gjuha.org (“Website”). This information is intended to help you understand what these technologies are, why we use them, and the rights you have to control their use.

Cookies may be used to collect personal data or information that, when combined with other data, can become personal. Data is considered personal when it can be used to identify an individual.

 


 

What are cookies?

Cookies are small data files that are stored on your device when you visit a website. Website owners use them to make their websites function, to make them more appealing and efficient, and to obtain (statistical) insights into their usage.

Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, GJUHA | Albanian Language Center) are called first-party cookies. Cookies set by other parties are called third-party cookies. Third-party cookies enable features or functionality provided by third parties on or through the website (e.g., advertising, interactive content, and analytics). These third parties may recognize your device both when you visit our website and when you visit certain other websites.

 


 

Why do we use cookies?

We use both first- and third-party cookies for several reasons. Some cookies are strictly necessary for the website to function and are referred to as “essential” cookies. Other cookies help us understand user interests so that we can provide more relevant content, especially advertisements. Third parties may also use cookies for advertising, analytics, and other purposes, as explained below.

 


 

How can I control cookies?

You have the right to choose whether to accept or reject cookies. You can set your preferences when you first visit our website using the Cookie Consent Manager, and you can change them at any time. The Cookie Consent Manager allows you to enable or disable specific categories of cookies. “Essential” cookies cannot be disabled as they are necessary for the website’s basic functions.

The Cookie Consent Manager is accessible through the notification banner and on our website. If you choose to reject cookies, you may still use our website, although some functionality and areas may be restricted. You can also set or change your browser controls to accept or refuse cookies.

Below is a list of the specific first-party and third-party cookies used on our website, along with their purposes (please note that cookies may vary depending on the specific site content you visit):

What about other tracking technologies like web beacons?

Cookies aren’t the only way to recognize or track website visitors. We may use other similar technologies, like web beacons (also known as “tracking pixels” or “clear gifs”). These are tiny graphics with a unique identifier that enable us to track email opens, website visits, and user behavior. They allow us to understand how users navigate pages, deliver cookies, determine if users arrived via an ad, improve site performance, and measure email campaign success. These technologies often depend on cookies to function properly, so disabling cookies may impair their effectiveness.

 


 

Do you use Flash cookies or Local Shared Objects?

Websites may also use “Flash Cookies” (also called Local Shared Objects or LSOs) to collect and store data. These may be used to prevent fraud or support certain site features.

You can control Flash Cookies through your Flash Player settings using the Website Storage Settings Panel. Instructions for managing or blocking Flash Cookies (and deleting existing ones) are available on Adobe’s website.

Please note: Restricting Flash Cookie storage may limit the functionality of some Flash-based content or services on our website.


 

Do you serve targeted advertising?

Third parties may place cookies on your device to serve ads via our website. These companies may use information about your visits to this and other websites to show you ads for goods and services you may find interesting. They may also measure ad effectiveness using cookies or web beacons. This data generally does not identify you personally unless you choose to provide such information yourself.

 


 

How often will you update this Cookie Notice?

We may update this Cookie Notice from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. Please review this notice regularly to stay informed about our use of cookies and related technologies.

The date at the top indicates when this Cookie Notice was last updated.
