Cookie Policy

Reviewed 22 September 2026
Website: www.gmaconsultancy.com
Scope: Visitors to GMA Consultancy’s website

This Cookie Policy explains how GMA Consultancy S.A.R.L (“GMA”, “we”, “us” or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies on www.gmaconsultancy.com. It should be read together with GMA’s Website Privacy Policy. GMA applies this policy having regard to Lebanese Law No. 81 of 2018 on Electronic Transactions and Personal Data and other legal requirements that may apply to a particular processing activity or visitor.

1. What Are Cookies and Similar Technologies?

Cookies are small data files stored on, or accessed from, a visitor’s device when a website is used. Similar technologies may include local storage, scripts, pixels, tags and other technical identifiers used to operate website functions, remember preferences, protect forms, understand website use or support third-party functionality.

2. How GMA Uses These Technologies

GMA may use cookies and similar technologies for strictly necessary or functional purposes, preferences, statistics, and marketing or tracking where such functionality is enabled.

3. Consent and Preference Management

When required, GMA’s cookie-consent tool allows visitors to accept, deny or manage non-essential cookie categories. Strictly necessary technologies may operate without optional consent where they are required to provide the website or a service specifically requested by the visitor and where permitted by applicable law. Visitors may change their preferences through the website’s “Manage Consent” function. Withdrawing consent does not affect processing that occurred lawfully before withdrawal.

4. Technologies and Services Used on the Website

The website currently uses, or may invoke when the relevant function is enabled, the following services and website technologies. The precise cookie name or technical storage item may change when a service, plugin or browser implementation is updated. GMA therefore maintains the detailed technical inventory through its consent-management and website-administration tools.

Google FontsDisplays website fonts where fonts are requested from Google’s servers.External content / FunctionalGMA does not describe Google Fonts as a cookie unless the current technical scan identifies a cookie or storage item. External requests may transmit technical connection data such as an IP address.

5. Detailed Cookie Inventory

The website’s consent-management tool should be treated as the operational source for the current technical cookie/storage inventory. Before this policy is published or materially updated, the website administrator must run a current cookie scan and reconcile the detected services, cookie names, categories, purposes and retention periods with the consent banner and this policy.

The previous public policy contained items described as “pending investigation” or “under investigation”. Those provisional descriptions should not be republished. Any newly detected cookie or storage item must instead be identified and classified through the website’s technical review before the public inventory is treated as final.

6. Third-Party Services and Social Media

Where GMA uses or links to third-party services such as LinkedIn, WhatsApp, Google reCAPTCHA or externally hosted webfonts, those providers may receive technical information when their service is loaded or used. Their processing is governed by their own terms and privacy practices. GMA does not control the retention periods or subsequent processing independently undertaken by those providers. Non-essential third-party technologies should be governed by the applicable consent configuration.

7. Managing or Deleting Cookies

Visitors can use the website’s consent-management function to review or change available cookie preferences. Cookies can also be deleted or blocked through browser settings. Blocking certain functional technologies may prevent some website features from operating correctly. Browser controls operate independently from GMA’s website consent tool.

8. Personal Data and Your Rights

Where information collected through cookies or similar technologies constitutes personal data, it is handled in accordance with GMA’s Website Privacy Policy and applicable law. Depending on the circumstances and applicable legal requirements, individuals may have rights relating to access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection or withdrawal of consent.

9. Changes to This Cookie Policy

GMA may update this Cookie Policy when website technologies, service providers, consent settings or applicable requirements change. The review date shown above should be updated whenever a material amendment is made.
