Cookie Policy
How we use cookies
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (such as a computer, tablet, or smartphone) when you visit a website. They can be first-party (set by Doctoury) or third-party (set by a service we use), and either session-based (deleted when you close your browser) or persistent (stored for a set period).
Why We Use Cookies
We use cookies to keep the website secure and working correctly, understand how visitors use the site so we can improve it, remember your preferences, and — where enabled — measure the performance of our advertising.
Strictly Necessary Cookies
Essential for the website to function — session management, security, and basic navigation. These cannot be switched off, as the site would not work correctly without them.
Performance & Analytics Cookies
Used to understand how visitors interact with the site — pages visited, time spent, and general traffic patterns — via Google Analytics. This helps us see what's working and improve the experience.
Functionality Cookies
Remember your preferences, such as language or region, so you don't have to reset them on every visit.
Targeting & Advertising Cookies
Used by Google Ads and Meta (Facebook/Instagram) Pixel to measure the effectiveness of our advertising and show more relevant ads. These are only set with your consent.
How Long Cookies Last
Session cookies expire when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period — typically between 30 days and 2 years, depending on the cookie's purpose.
Legal Basis
Strictly necessary cookies are used on the basis of legitimate interest, since the site cannot function without them. All other cookies — analytics, functionality, and advertising — are only set with your consent.
Managing & Disabling Cookies
You can control or disable cookies at any time through your browser settings (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge). Disabling non-essential cookies won't affect your ability to browse the site, but may limit personalization and how we measure site performance.
Third-Party Services
Google Analytics — tracks and analyzes website traffic.
Google Ads — measures advertising performance.
Meta Pixel — measures the performance of ads run on Facebook and Instagram.
Each of these third parties has its own privacy policy governing how it handles data collected through its cookies.
