COOKIE POLICY

​

Last updated: 23 July 2026

1. Introduction

​

This Cookie Policy explains how Refugees in Libya – APS uses cookies and similar technologies on its website.

Cookies are small text files or pieces of information stored on a visitor’s browser or device. They may be used to make a website function, protect it against abuse, remember user choices, measure technical performance or provide optional services.

​

This website is built and hosted using Wix.

​

Refugees in Libya does not use cookies for behavioural advertising, targeted advertising or the creation of commercial advertising profiles.

The absence of advertising does not mean that a website uses no cookies. Wix uses essential cookies for security, stability, fraud prevention and core website functions. Added forms, donation tools, videos or other integrations may use additional cookies. 

​

​

Refugees in Libya – APS

​

3. Types of cookies

​

3.1 Essential cookies

​

Essential cookies are required for the website to function securely and correctly.

They may be used for:

​

  • website security;

  • attack and fraud detection;

  • network management;

  • session management;

  • consent-preference storage;

  • rendering and displaying pages;

  • maintaining the stability of the website;

  • protecting forms and application interfaces.

​

Essential cookies cannot normally be disabled through the website’s consent panel because the website may not function correctly without them.

Consent is not required for cookies that are strictly necessary to provide the website or a service expressly requested by the visitor. Visitors must nevertheless be informed about their use. The Italian Data Protection Authority distinguishes technical cookies from non-essential tracking tools and requires prior consent for tracking tools that are not technically necessary. 

​

3.2 Functional cookies

​

Functional cookies may remember choices or enable optional services, such as:

​

  • language preferences;

  • accessibility preferences;

  • media-player preferences;

  • enhanced form functions;

  • other personalised website features.

​

Where these cookies are not strictly necessary, they will be activated only after the visitor has given consent through the cookie banner.

​

3.3 Analytics cookies

​

Analytics cookies may help Refugees in Libya understand, in aggregated form:

​

  • how many people visit the website;

  • which pages are visited;

  • how visitors move through the website;

  • whether technical problems occur;

  • whether the website works effectively on different devices.

​

Refugees in Libya does not use analytics data to create advertising profiles.

Where optional analytics cookies are used, they will be activated only after the visitor has given consent through the cookie banner.

Refusing analytics cookies will not prevent access to the website.

​

3.4 Embedded content and third-party services

​

The website may display or link to content provided by third parties, such as:

​

  • YouTube or other video services;

  • Instagram or other social-media platforms;

  • online maps;

  • donation or payment services;

  • document-viewing tools;

  • newsletter services;

  • campaign or petition tools.

​

These providers may receive technical data or place cookies when their content is loaded or used.

​

Where the cookies are not technically necessary, the relevant content or tracking technology should remain blocked until the visitor gives consent.

​

3.5 Advertising and profiling cookies

​

Refugees in Libya does not use advertising or behavioural-profiling cookies on this website.

​

The organisation does not permit advertisers to use the website to follow visitors across unrelated websites for targeted advertising.

​

4. Essential Wix cookies

​

According to Wix’s current documentation, the following essential cookies may be placed on Wix websites. The exact cookies visible to a visitor may differ depending on the browser, device and Wix functions currently active.

​

Wix states that added business solutions, third-party applications and external integrations may introduce cookies beyond those in its standard list. 

​

5. Consent and cookie choices

​

When a visitor first enters the website, a cookie banner may be displayed.

The visitor should be able to:

  • accept all optional cookies;

  • reject all optional cookies;

  • select individual cookie categories;

  • continue using the website with essential cookies only;

  • change or withdraw their choice later.

​

Refusing optional cookies should not prevent access to the principal content of the website.

​

Silence, inactivity, preselected boxes or merely scrolling through the page are not treated as valid consent to non-essential tracking. Consent must result from a clear and affirmative choice and must be capable of being withdrawn.

 

6. Changing or withdrawing consent

​

Visitors may change their cookie preferences through the Cookie Settings link displayed in the website footer or cookie interface.

Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing that occurred before consent was withdrawn.

Deleting cookies from the browser may also cause the website to request the visitor’s preferences again.

​

7. Browser controls

​

Visitors may also use their browser settings to:

​

  • view stored cookies;

  • delete individual cookies;

  • block cookies;

  • block third-party cookies;

  • remove all stored website data.

​

Blocking essential cookies through the browser may cause parts of the website to stop working correctly.

​

8. Third-party cookies and current cookie list

​

Because website functions may change, the live cookie-consent panel should provide the most current list of:

​

  • active cookies and similar technologies;

  • their providers;

  • their purposes;

  • their categories;

  • their storage periods.

​

The Cookie Policy will be reviewed whenever Refugees in Libya adds or removes an external application, donation provider, analytics tool, embedded video, form service or other integration.

​

9. Changes to this Cookie Policy

​

This policy may be updated to reflect:

​

  • changes to the website;

  • changes to Wix technology;

  • the introduction of new services;

  • changes in the cookies detected on the website;

  • changes to applicable law or regulatory guidance.

​

The latest revision date will appear at the beginning of the policy.
