1. Purpose

Our Cookie Policy explains how and why cookies and similar technologies are used on Heka Dental’s websites.
We use cookies to make our websites function properly, to remember your preferences, to measure visitor statistics, and to improve user experience. Certain cookies are necessary for the operation of the site and are always active, while others are only placed with your consent.

2. Cookie Management through Cookiebot

Heka Dental uses Cookiebot (Cybot A/S, Denmark) to manage all cookie consents in compliance with the EU ePrivacy Directive and the Danish Executive Order on Cookies. Cookiebot automatically scans our website and presents you with an updated cookie declaration.
When you first visit our website, a cookie banner will appear asking for your consent.

Here you can choose to accept all cookies, reject all, or customise your preferences by category:

  • Necessary – essential for the website to function.
  • Preferences – store your language and display settings.
  • Statistics – help us understand how visitors interact with the site.
  • Marketing – used to track visitors across websites and display relevant advertising.

You can change or withdraw your consent at any time by reopening the Cookiebot banner via the small cookie icon in the bottom corner of our website.

3. Cloudflare Security Cookies

Some of Heka Dental’s web domains are hosted or secured through Cloudflare, which uses specific cookies to ensure website integrity and performance. These cookies are automatically set when a visitor accesses the site, regardless of consent preferences, because they are strictly necessary for the security and stability of the website.
Purpose and lawful basis

The Cloudflare cookies are used to:

  •  Identify trusted web traffic and detect malicious requests,
  •  Protect the website from denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks, and
  •  Optimise content delivery through Cloudflare’s global network.

These cookies do not store personally identifiable information and cannot be disabled without affecting the site’s core functionality. Their use falls under the “strictly necessary” exemption in Article 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive and Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR (legitimate interest in ensuring IT security).

About the Cookiebot scan.

In Cookiebot’s automated reports, these cookies may appear as “Data sent to: Unknown (not adequate)” because the scanning tool cannot determine the precise Cloudflare data centre that serves your connection.

This message does not indicate that data is transferred to an unapproved location—it simply reflects the distributed nature of Cloudflare’s EU-based network. All Cloudflare processing complies with the EU–US Data Privacy Framework and Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) where applicable.
Cloudflare cookies set by Vimeo

In addition, embedded Vimeo videos may use Cloudflare-managed cookies to maintain secure content delivery. These are categorised as necessary because they serve the same protective purpose and are not used for tracking.

4. Viewing the Full Cookie Declaration

The complete, automatically updated list of cookies used on our website is always available via Cookiebot’s public cookie declaration. You can view it here: Cookie Declaration
Because this declaration is automatically maintained by Cookiebot, we no longer publish static cookie lists in this policy. This ensures full transparency and up-to-date information on all cookies, their purposes, providers and expiration periods.

5. Legal Basis for Use of Cookies

The use of cookies that are not strictly necessary for the operation of the website requires your consent under the ePrivacy Directive.

The legal basis for processing personal data collected via cookies depends on the cookie category: consent under Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR for preferences, statistics, and marketing cookies, and legitimate interest under Article 6(1)(f) for necessary cookies.

6. Retention and Storage

Cookies are stored for the period specified in the Cookie Declaration. Some are deleted automatically when you close your browser, while others remain on your device until they expire or are deleted manually. Cookiebot ensures this information is always accurate and up to date.

7. How to Control and Delete Cookies

You can at any time change or withdraw your consent via the Cookiebot interface or your browser settings.
For general cookie management, you can configure your browser to delete or block cookies. However, please note that disabling necessary cookies may affect website functionality.

8. Data Sharing and Transfers

Some cookies are provided by third parties that process data outside the EU/EEA (e.g., analytics providers). In such cases, data transfers are based on approved mechanisms such as the EU Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) to ensure an adequate level of protection.

9. Updates to This Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy is reviewed regularly and updated automatically through Cookiebot. Any significant changes in our use of cookies or related technologies will also be reflected in this document.
