COOKIE POLICY - PHONE2CHARGER.COM
Last updated: September 22, 2026
Governing Law: Belgian Law / European ePrivacy Directive (Directive 2002/58/EC amended by Directive 2009/136/EC) / General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)
1. Introduction & Statutory Framework
1.1 Operator Identification: This Cookie Policy applies to the website Phone2charger.com (hereinafter: "the Website"), managed and operated by the Operator of Phone2charger.com. For any technical or cookie-related inquiries, the User can contact the Operator directly via the official electronic contact channels provided on the Website.
1.2 Transparency: In accordance with European ePrivacy legislation and the GDPR, this policy provides clear, comprehensive, and transparent information regarding the types of cookies, tracking tokens, and cryptographic identifiers deployed on the User’s terminal equipment when browsing the Website, as well as the purposes for which they are used.
2. What are Cookies and Tracking Technologies?
2.1 Definition: Cookies are compact, temporary text files or data packets containing unique identifier strings that a web server deposits onto the User's local computer, mobile device, or tablet via their internet browser.
2.2 Purpose: Cookies allow websites to remember user preferences, ensure structural network stability, analyze interface performance, and—critically for this platform—enable secure cryptographic tracking parameters for third-party commercial referral pathways (affiliate marketing).
3. Categories of Cookies Deployed on This Website
The Website utilizes cookies belonging to the following specific functional and commercial classifications:
A. Strictly Necessary & Functional Cookies (First-Party)
Purpose: These cookies are technically vital for the core infrastructure and secure operational execution of the Website. They enable basic functionalities such as interface navigation, server load balancing, security protocol enforcement, and the retention of cookie consent states (remembering whether a user accepted or declined tracking via the cookie banner).
Legal Basis: Article 6(1)(f) GDPR (Legitimate Interest). These cookies do not require prior user consent as the website cannot function securely or structurally without them.
Lifespan: Mostly temporary session cookies that delete automatically upon closing the browser.
B. Anonymized Analytical Cookies (First-Party or Privacy-Compliant Third-Party)
Purpose: To monitor, evaluate, and optimize website performance, layout efficiency, and universal traffic trends (e.g., measuring unique page views, duration of reading, and device architectures).
Privacy-First Protocol: All analytical data acquisition is heavily restricted. IP addresses are stripped, masked, or geolocated at an aggregate level before being processed. This data is strictly statistical, completely non-identifiable, and falls outside the scope of individual behavioral tracking.
Legal Basis: Article 6(1)(a) GDPR (Consent) or Article 6(1)(f) GDPR (Legitimate Interest for fully anonymized analytics).
C. Outbound Commercial Affiliate Links (Third-Party Platforms)
This Website contains commercial outbound affiliate links that redirect Users to external e-commerce networks (such as Amazon). The Website itself does not execute tracking or behavioral profiling scripts upon page load. Once a User voluntarily clicks an outbound link and leaves the domain of Phone2charger.com, data processing and cookie deployment fall exclusively under the sovereign data control and privacy policies of that respective third-party merchant. The legal basis for redirecting users via functional links is the execution of our services and our legitimate commercial interest (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR).
4. Digital Services Act (DSA) & Algorithmic Execution Disclaimer
4.1 Automated Affiliate Infrastructure: The User is formally informed that the deployment of affiliate links and the automated routing mechanisms associated with commercial tracking cookies are executed via pre-programmed algorithms and semi-automated software.
4.2 Good Faith Exoneration: Pursuant to the European Digital Services Act (DSA - Regulation EU 2022/2065), the Operator maintains this tracking infrastructure in continuous good faith for financing operations. The Operator has no active subjective intervention in individual cookie generation or algorithmic tracking execution by third-party retail platforms and disclaims all liability for technical script anomalies originating from external platforms like Amazon.
5. Comprehensive Boundary Limits & External Exoneration
5.1 Jurisdiction Termination: This Cookie Policy governs the technical scripting landscape strictly within the domain boundaries of Phone2charger.com. The moment the User clicks an affiliate link and enters an external e-commerce domain, our data sovereignty and technical boundaries cease instantly.
5.2 Third-Party Control: The Operator exercises no administrative, legal, or technical control over the cookie architecture, pixel scripts, or tracking technologies deployed by Amazon or any other affiliate partner. The Operator formally disclaims any and all liability, responsibility, or financial accountability for cookie compliance or privacy practices occurring on external third-party merchant networks. The User is strongly encouraged to consult the specific cookie policies of those external webshops.
6. Consent Management, Browser Autonomy, and Revocation
The User possesses absolute, unalienable autonomy over their local storage and cookie deployment. You can manage your preferences through the following methods:
Website Cookie Banner: Upon your first visit, you can actively consent to or decline the deployment of commercial tracking and analytical cookies via our interactive banner.
Browser Configuration: You can configure your browser software (Google Chrome, Apple Safari, Mozilla Firefox, Microsoft Edge, etc.) to systematically reject all cookies, block third-party tracking scripts, or alert you when a cookie is being deployed.
Manual Erasure: You can manually purge your browser's cookie database and cache history at any time, which will instantly delete any active affiliate tracking tokens deposited by external partners.
7. Policy Amendments
The Operator reserves the right to unilaterally update, amend, or restructure this Cookie Policy at any time to reflect technical variations in our tracking scripts or legal evolutions in European ePrivacy legislation. The date of the last modification will always be explicitly documented at the top of this page.
