Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile phone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and to provide information to website operators about how the site is being used.
Cookies can be "session cookies," which are deleted when you close your browser, or "persistent cookies," which remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them. They can be set by the website you are visiting ("first-party cookies") or by third-party services that the website uses ("third-party cookies").
Similar technologies include web beacons, pixel tags, and local storage, which function in comparable ways. References to "cookies" in this policy include these similar technologies unless otherwise specified.
Cookies We Use
Novum Digital uses a limited set of cookies, grouped into three categories based on their purpose. We distinguish between cookies that are strictly necessary for the website to function and optional cookies for which we request your consent.
When you first visit our website, a cookie consent tool is displayed. You can choose which categories of optional cookies to accept. Your preferences are stored in a cookie named ndcoi_consent, which records your choices for 12 months.
Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for the website to function correctly. They cannot be disabled because without them the site would not work as intended. They do not collect any personally identifiable information for marketing or tracking purposes.
Necessary cookies we use include:
ndcoi_consent — Stores your cookie consent preferences. Duration: 12 months. Set by: Novum Digital.
Session cookies — Temporary cookies that maintain basic website functionality during your visit. Duration: session (deleted when browser closes). Set by: Novum Digital.
No consent is required for strictly necessary cookies under applicable Colombian data protection guidance, as they are essential for the operation of the service you have requested.
Analytics Cookies
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website. They collect information in aggregate form, such as which pages are visited most often, how long visitors stay on each page, and whether visitors encounter any errors. This information helps us improve the website's content and usability.
Analytics cookies we may use (only with your consent) include:
_ga, _ga_* — Google Analytics cookies that distinguish users and sessions. Duration: up to 24 months. Set by: Google LLC.
_gid — Google Analytics cookie that distinguishes users. Duration: 24 hours. Set by: Google LLC.
Analytics data is processed in aggregate and is not used to identify individual users. If you decline analytics cookies, your visit will not be tracked for analytical purposes.
Functional Cookies
Functional cookies enable enhanced features and personalization on our website. They may remember your language preference or other choices you have made to provide a more consistent experience across visits.
Functional cookies we may use (only with your consent) include:
lang_pref — Stores your language preference (EN or ES) to maintain your selection across sessions. Duration: 6 months. Set by: Novum Digital.
If you decline functional cookies, the website will still work correctly, but some personalization features may not be available between visits.
Managing Your Consent
When you first visit our website, you will see a cookie consent modal that allows you to choose which categories of cookies to accept. You can:
Accept all cookies by clicking "Accept All"
Choose specific categories and click "Accept Selected"
Accept only necessary cookies by clicking "Necessary Only"
Your preferences are saved for 12 months. After this period, you will be asked to review your preferences again.
You can change your cookie preferences at any time by clearing your browser cookies, which will cause the consent tool to appear again on your next visit. Alternatively, contact us at info@novumdigitalcoi.com to request that your consent record be deleted.
Browser Controls
In addition to our consent tool, all major web browsers provide settings that allow you to control cookies. You can typically find these settings in the "Options," "Preferences," or "Settings" menu of your browser. You can use these settings to:

For instructions on managing cookies in specific browsers, refer to the help documentation for your browser: Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge, or Opera.
Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies on our website are set by third-party services. We use Google Analytics (operated by Google LLC) for aggregate website analytics when you consent to analytics cookies. Google may use this data in accordance with its own privacy policy, available at policies.google.com/privacy.
Our website also embeds a Google Maps iframe on the contact page. When you interact with the map, Google may set cookies in accordance with its own cookie policy. We recommend reviewing Google's cookie policy if you have concerns about these cookies.
We do not use third-party advertising cookies or tracking pixels for marketing purposes.
Cookie Retention Periods
The retention period for each cookie is described in the relevant section above. As a summary:
Necessary cookies: session or up to 12 months
Analytics cookies: up to 24 months (Google Analytics standard)
Functional cookies: up to 6 months
Consent record (ndcoi_consent): 12 months
After the retention period, cookies expire automatically. You can also delete cookies manually through your browser settings at any time.
Legal Basis for Cookies
Under Colombian data protection law (Ley 1581 de 2012) and applicable guidance from the Superintendencia de Industria y Comercio:
Necessary cookies are processed on the basis of our legitimate interest in providing a functional website, and because they are strictly required to deliver the service you have requested.
Analytics and functional cookies are processed on the basis of your explicit consent, which you provide through our cookie consent tool. You may withdraw this consent at any time.
We do not use cookies for automated decision-making or profiling that produces legal or similarly significant effects.
Policy Updates
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use, changes in applicable law, or operational changes. The date of the most recent update is shown at the top of this page.
Where we make material changes that affect cookies requiring consent, we will display the consent tool again so that you can review and update your preferences.
