Cookie policy
What this site stores in your browser, why, and for how long. In plain terms, and with nothing left out.
The short version
Almaaz sets four first-party cookies and keeps two small entries in your browser's own storage — all of them needed for the site to work, none of them optional. On top of that, and only if you accept in the banner, we load Google Tag Manager and the Meta pixel. Refuse and they never run: nothing about your visit reaches Google or Meta.
Everything this site stores
| Name | What it is for | How long | Category |
|---|---|---|---|
almaaz_s | Signed session for the member area. HttpOnly — JavaScript cannot read it. | 30 days | Strictly necessary |
almaaz_m | Flag so the menu shows “Member area” without asking the server on every page. | 30 days | Strictly necessary |
almaaz_a | Signed session for the clinic's internal admin panel. Staff only. | 12 hours | Strictly necessary |
almaaz_c | Your choice on this banner, so we stop asking. | 6 months | Strictly necessary |
almaaz_ref (local storage) | The referral code you arrived with, so the 5% is honoured when you book. | 90 days | Strictly necessary |
almaaz_ref_bar / reviews panel (session storage) | Whether you already closed the referral bar or the reviews panel. Cleared when you close the tab. | Current session | Strictly necessary |
_ga / _ga_* (Google) | Measures which pages are read and where people give up. Only with your consent. | Up to 2 years | Analytics |
_gcl_* (Google Ads) | Attributes a booking to the ad that brought you. Only with your consent. | Up to 90 days | Marketing |
_fbp (Meta) | Lets Meta measure our ads and show them to people who have visited. Only with your consent. | 90 days | Marketing |
Third parties
The site links out to WhatsApp, Instagram and Google Maps, and those links only do something when you click them — nothing is loaded from them while you read. The Google map that used to be embedded on the home page was removed. Two third parties can run here, and only after you allow them in the banner: Google (Tag Manager, Analytics and Ads) and Meta (the pixel). Both are in the United States, so accepting means an international transfer of that data. Refusing costs you nothing on this site.
Changing your mind
You can reopen the banner at any time and change your choice — withdrawing consent is as easy as giving it. You can also delete cookies in your browser settings, though signing out of the member area is what the session cookie is really for.
Your rights and who to ask
Under the LGPD (Law 13.709/2018) you may ask what personal data we hold about you, correct it, or ask for it to be deleted. The controller is Clínica Almaaz (CNPJ 21.590.169/0001-19), Av. Ataulfo de Paiva, 391 — Sl 407 & 408, Leblon, Rio de Janeiro. Ask us on WhatsApp and a person at the clinic will handle it.
