Cookie Policy
Last updated:
This is an English translation provided for convenience. In the event of any discrepancy, the Spanish version prevails.
1. Who is responsible
The party responsible for this website and for this policy is the owner identified in the Legal Notice (DOJO Málaga by Japanese Head Spa). If you have any questions, please write to us at dojomalagajhs@gmail.com.
2. What cookies are
Cookies are small files that a website stores in your browser to remember information between pages or visits. In this policy we also use the word “cookies” for similar technologies, such as the browser's local storage (localStorage and sessionStorage), which serve the same purpose.
Depending on who sets them, they can be first-party (from this website) or third-party (from another company whose service is used on the website). Depending on their purpose, they can be technical (essential for the website, or for the service you ask for, to work), analytics (to measure visits) or advertising (to show or measure adverts).
3. Which cookies this website uses
At present this website does not set any analytics or advertising cookies. Fonts and images are served from our own server, and the map of the centre is a link to Google Maps rather than an embedded map, so no information is sent to Google or other companies while you browse.
Only the following are used:
3.1 First-party technical cookies (no consent needed)
- dojo-consentimiento · Provider: this website (browser local storage) · Purpose: remember whether you have accepted or rejected analytics and advertising cookies, so that we do not ask you again · Duration: until you delete it from “Cookie settings” or from your browser · Type: technical.
- dojo-calendario · Provider: this website (browser local storage) · Purpose: remember that you have already asked to open the booking calendar, so it is shown straight away next time · Duration: until you delete it from “Cookie settings” or from your browser · Type: technical.
3.2 Booking calendar cookies (third-party, only when you open it)
On the booking page, the calendar is provided by our appointment provider, LeadConnector (domain leadconnectorhq.com), inside an embedded frame. The calendar is not loaded until you press “See times and book”. From that moment, and only within that frame, the provider may store:
- __cf_bm · Provider: LeadConnector, via Cloudflare · Purpose: security, telling people apart from bots and protecting the service · Duration: 30 minutes · Type: third-party technical.
- i18n_redirected · Provider: LeadConnector · Purpose: remember the calendar language · Duration: as set by the provider · Type: third-party technical.
- Form local storage (for example, _ud and session data) · Provider: LeadConnector · Purpose: keep the details you fill in so that the booking can be completed and nothing is lost if you reload · Duration: session, or until you clear your browser data · Type: third-party technical.
- reCAPTCHA cookies (for example, _GRECAPTCHA) · Provider: Google, only if the calendar enables anti-spam verification · Purpose: security, preventing fraudulent automated bookings · Duration: up to 6 months · Type: third-party technical.
We treat these as technical because they are necessary to provide a service that you have expressly requested (booking your appointment). If you prefer not to open the calendar, you can book by WhatsApp or by phone. That provider's terms are set out in its own privacy and cookie policy.
3.3 Analytics and advertising (only if enabled and accepted)
The website is prepared to measure visits with Google Analytics (through Google Tag Manager) and the effectiveness of our adverts with the Meta Pixel. They are currently switched off. If they are ever enabled, they will not load until you press “Accept” in the cookie notice, and they would be the following:
- _ga · Provider: Google · Purpose: distinguish visitors for usage statistics · Duration: 2 years · Type: analytics.
- _ga_<ID> · Provider: Google · Purpose: keep the session state for statistics · Duration: 2 years · Type: analytics.
- _fbp · Provider: Meta · Purpose: measure the effectiveness of adverts and show related advertising · Duration: 3 months · Type: advertising.
- fr (on Meta domains) · Provider: Meta · Purpose: advertising and ad measurement · Duration: 3 months · Type: third-party advertising.
Google and Meta may process this data outside the European Economic Area, with the safeguards set out in their own policies.
3.4 Links to other websites
The buttons for buying gift cards, WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook and Google Maps take you to another website or app. They do not set anything on this website; once you open them, each one's own cookie and privacy policy applies.
4. Consent
Technical cookies do not require your consent because without them the website, or the service you ask for, would not work (Article 22.2 of Spanish Law 34/2002, LSSI).
Analytics and advertising cookies are only set after you accept them in the cookie notice. Browsing the website or closing the notice does not count as acceptance. Accepting and rejecting are equally easy, and rejecting does not stop you from using the website or making a booking.
5. How to change or withdraw your consent
You can change your mind at any time using the “Cookie settings” link, found in the footer of every page and at the end of this policy. If you withdraw your consent, we delete the analytics and advertising cookies from our domain and the page reloads without them. Withdrawing consent does not affect anything done previously with your consent.
You can also view, block or delete cookies in your browser settings:
If you block all cookies, the booking calendar may not work; in that case you can book by WhatsApp or by phone.
6. Changes to this policy
We will update this policy if the cookies used by the website change (for example, if analytics is enabled). The date of the last update appears at the top of the page.
