Cookies and online trackers

This Cookie Policy refers exclusively to the website and must be understood as an integral part of its Privacy Policy.

1. Definitions, characteristics and application of the law

Cookies are small text files that the websites visited by the User send and record on the User’s computer or mobile device, to be retransmitted to the same sites on the next visit. It is precisely thanks to cookies that a Website remembers the User’s actions and preferences (such as, for example, login details, the language chosen, font size, other display settings, etc.) so that they do not have to be entered again when the User returns to that Website or navigates from one page of it to another. Cookies, therefore, are used to perform computer authentication, session tracking and storage of information regarding the activities of Users accessing a Website and may also contain a unique identification code that allows the User’s navigation within the Website to be tracked for statistical or advertising purposes. During navigation on a Website, the User may also receive cookies from sites or web servers other than the one he is visiting on his computer or mobile device (so-called “third party cookies”). Some operations could not be carried out without the use of cookies, which in certain cases are therefore technically necessary for the Website to function itself.
There are various types of cookies, depending on their characteristics and functions, and they may remain on the User’s computer or mobile device for different periods of time: so-called “Session Cookies”, which are automatically deleted when the browser is closed; so-called “Persistent Cookies”, which remain on the User’s device until a fixed deadline.

2. Types of cookies used by the Website

This includes cookies from third-party analytics services as long as the cookies are for the exclusive use of the owner of the website visited,
  • “Strictly necessary Cookies” — These cookies are essential for you to browse the website and use its features, such as accessing secure areas of the Website.

While it is not required to obtain consent for these cookies, what they do and why they are necessary should be explained to the User.
  • “Functionality Cookies” which allow the User to navigate according to a series of selected criteria (e.g. language, products selected for purchase) in order to improve the service provided to the User.

  • “Cookies used to integrate third-party software products and functions”. This type of cookie integrates features developed by third parties within the pages of the Website such as icons and preferences expressed in social networks to share Website content or to use third party software services (such as map generation software and other software offering additional services).

  • “Session Cookies”– These cookies are temporary and expire once you close your browser (or once your session ends).
  • “Persistent Cookies”— This category encompasses all cookies that remain on your hard drive until you erase them or your browser does, depending on the cookie’s expiration date. All persistent cookies have an expiration date written into their code, but their duration can vary. According to the ePrivacy Directive, they should not last longer than 12 months, but in practice, they could remain on your device much longer if you do not take action.

  • in case of sale of personal information or disclosure for a business purpose, two separate lists where we disclose:
      • for sales, the personal information categories purchased by each category of recipient; and
      • for disclosures for a business purpose, the personal information categories obtained by each category of recipient.

The disclosure described above will be limited to the personal information collected or used over the past 12 months.

If we deliver our response electronically, the information enclosed will be “portable”, i.e. delivered in an easily usable format to enable you to transmit the information to another entity without hindrance – provided that this is technically feasible.

The right to request the deletion of your personal information

You have the right to request that we delete any of your personal information, subject to exceptions set forth by the law (such as, including but not limited to, where the information is used to identify and repair errors on this Website, to detect security incidents and protect against fraudulent or illegal activities, to exercise certain rights etc.).
If no legal exception applies, as a result of exercising your right, we will delete your personal information and direct any of our service providers to do so.

How to exercise your rights

To exercise the rights described above, you need to submit your verifiable request to us by contacting us via the details provided in this document.
For us to respond to your request, it’s necessary that we know who you are. Therefore, you can only exercise the above rights by making a verifiable request which must:

  • provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected personal information or an authorized representative;
  • describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.

We will not respond to any request if we are unable to verify your identity and therefore confirm the personal information in our possession actually relates to you.
If you cannot personally submit a verifiable request, you can authorize a person registered with the California Secretary of State to act on your behalf.
If you are an adult, you can make a verifiable request on behalf of a minor under your parental authority.
You can submit a maximum number of 2 requests over a period of 12 months.

How and when we are expected to handle your request

We will confirm receipt of your verifiable request within 10 days and provide information about how we will process your request.
We will respond to your request within 45 days of its receipt. Should we need more time, we will explain to you the reasons why, and how much more time we need. In this regard, please note that we may take up to 90 days to fulfill your request.
Our disclosure(s) will cover the preceding 12 month period.
Should we deny your request, we will explain you the reasons behind our denial.
We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable request unless such request is manifestly unfounded or excessive. In such cases, we may charge a reasonable fee, or refuse to act on the request. In either case, we will communicate our choices and explain the reasons behind it.

You can file your express request to exercise your rights free from any charge, at any time, by using the contact details provided in this document, or via your legal representative.

How and when we will respond to your request

We will strive to promptly respond to your requests.
In any case, should it be impossible for us to do so, we’ll make sure to communicate to you the factual or legal reasons that prevent us from immediately, or otherwise ever, complying with your requests. In cases where we are not processing your personal information, we will indicate to you the physical or legal person to whom you should address your requests, if we are in the position to do so.
In the event that you file an access or personal information processing confirmation request, please make sure that you specify whether you’d like your personal information to be delivered in electronic or printed form.
You will also need to let us know whether you want us to answer your request immediately, in which case we will answer in a simplified fashion, or if you need a complete disclosure instead.
In the latter case, we’ll respond within 15 days from the time of your request, providing you with all the information on the origin of your personal information, confirmation on whether or not records exist, any criteria used for the processing and the purposes of the processing, while safeguarding our commercial and industrial secrets.
In the event that you file a rectification, deletion, anonymization or personal information blocking request, we will make sure to immediately communicate your request to other parties with whom we have shared your personal information in order to enable such third parties to also comply with your request – except in cases where such communication is proven impossible or involves disproportionate effort on our side.
