Introduction
​
This Cookie Policy sets out the basis on which Oval Brands Limited, a limited liability company duly registered under the laws of Malta bearing company registration number C 46065 with registered office situated at Canter Business Centre, Patri Felicjan Bilocca Street, Marsa, MRS 1524, Malta (hereinafter referred to as “Oval Brands”, “Us”, “We” or “Our”) utilise cookies in relation to the website https://www.artstoremalta.com (the “Website”).

IP address
​
During the course of your visits to the Website, the Website automatically logs your Internet Protocol Address (“IP Address”) which is a unique identifying number automatically assigned to you every time you connect to the internet or, if you use an always-on connection such as broadband or ADSL, when you boot up your computer.
This IP Address contains information regarding the location of your computer on the internet (your country of origin) and the name of your internet service provider. Without such an IP Address, websites would not be able to deliver their content to you as they would not be able to find your computer on the internet.
Your IP Address is grouped up with the other logged IP addresses and is logged in order to provide us with statistics on the geographic location of visitors to our site, how long they stay on the Website which are the most viewed pages and for other statistical reasons. Collecting this type of information allows us to administer our site, diagnose any potential server problems, analyse visitor trends and statistics, and generally help us provide you with a better internet experience. IP Addresses are not stored for longer than necessary for the above purposes.
