Cookie Policy
This Cookie Policy is an integral part of the Privacy Policy available on our website www.carcanoegidio.it.
Information Obligation Users can express their consent to the use of cookies by accepting them freely, specifically, informatively, and unequivocally, by clicking on one of the internal links on the website, or by clicking the “x” button or otherwise closing the short information banner visible on every first access to the site, as provided by the Data Protection Authority’s provision no. 229 of May 8, 2014, and the “Guidelines on cookies and other tracking tools – June 10, 2021”, or by scrolling when the site uses only technical cookies or similar functions, while maintaining the obligation to inform by the Data Controller.
Definition and Types of Cookies Cookies consist of pieces of code (computer files or partial data) sent from a server to the user’s Internet browser, automatically stored on the user’s computer and automatically returned to the server on each occurrence or subsequent access to the site. Usually, a cookie contains the name of the website from which it comes, the lifespan of the cookie (how long it will remain on the user’s device), and a value, which is generally a unique randomly generated number. On each subsequent visit, cookies are sent back to the website that originated them (first-party cookies) or to another site that recognizes them (third-party cookies). Cookies are useful because they allow a website to recognize the user’s device and have various purposes, such as enabling efficient navigation between pages, remembering preferred sites, and generally improving the browsing experience. They also help ensure that the online advertising content displayed is more targeted to the user and their interests.
The sites use different types of cookies, each with a specific function. The site uses cookies to make navigation simpler and to better tailor both the loaded pages and its products to the interests and needs of users. Cookies can also be used to speed up future user experiences and activities on the site. Additionally, cookies are used to compile anonymous aggregate statistics that help understand how users use the site and improve the structure and content of the sites.
Below is an explanatory list.
Technical Cookies “Technical” cookies are essential for the proper functioning of the site and allow users to navigate the site and utilize its features (for example, they allow the storage of previous actions or save the user’s session and/or perform other activities strictly necessary for the site’s functioning). This category also includes “analytical” cookies that help understand how users interact with the site by providing information about the last page visited, the number of sections and pages visited, the time spent on the site, and any issues that arose during navigation, such as an error message. They help to understand any difficulties users encounter when using the site. This information may be associated with user details such as IP address, domain, or browser; however, it is analyzed along with information from other users so as not to identify any specific user. These cookies are collected and aggregated anonymously and allow the site manager to improve the site’s usability.
Finally, “functional” cookies allow the site to remember user choices (e.g., username) to provide a more personalized and optimized navigation experience. Functional cookies are not essential for the functioning of the sites but enhance quality and browsing experience. If these cookies are not accepted, the performance and functionality of the site may be lower, and access to site content may be limited.
Profiling Cookies “Targeting” or “profiling” cookies are used to present content that is more relevant to the user and their interests. They can be used to display targeted advertisements, to publish personalized ads based on user interests, or to limit the number of times a user sees an advertisement. They also help measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns on the site; the site manager may use these cookies to remember the sites the user has visited and share this information with third parties, including agencies and advertisers who may use their cookies to collect information on user activities on the site.
Based on the expressed consent, it will be possible to calibrate this “targeting” or “profiling” activity, so users are advised to pay due attention. “Sharing” cookies (or social network cookies) are necessary to allow users to interact with sites through their social accounts and serve, for example, to express appreciation and share it with their social contacts.
The site uses or may use, even in combination, cookies:
In the “view cookies” window, you can find details about the cookies and select your preferences, except for technical cookies.
For more detailed information regarding this site, please refer to the specific information available in the “Show cookies” section, operational in the homepage banner. If you decide to disable cookies, this may affect and/or limit your browsing experience on the site: for example, you may not be able to visit certain sections or may not receive personalized information when you visit the site. Technical cookies cannot be disabled.
Manifestation of Consent for Acceptance of Cookies Consent can be obtained through:
Via a specific checkbox on the site Consent can be validly obtained by selecting specific flags on the website’s banner, which appear upon opening the web page, for the purpose of online tracking of information regarding the user, including from the use of cookies and other tracking tools. If the user chooses to maintain default settings, they can simply close the banner by selecting the appropriate command (an X usually located at the top right of the banner itself). This action, expressing the will not to consent to the use of cookies other than technical ones, will prevent the site from repeatedly presenting the banner on subsequent accesses by the user.
The banner must also contain the warning that its closure through the X at the top right will maintain default settings, and therefore the absence of functionality for cookies or other tracking tools other than technical ones.
Settings must always be modifiable by the user. Therefore, if the user maintains default settings and thus does not consent to the use of cookies or other tracking tools, as well as if they consented only to the use of certain cookies or certain tracking tools, such choice must be duly recorded, and consent must not be solicited again unless one of the following cases arises: a) when one or more conditions of processing change significantly, b) when it is impossible for the manager to ascertain that a cookie has already been stored on the device to be transmitted again, c) when at least 6 months have passed since the previous presentation of the banner.
By choosing technical settings for information society services The methods of operation and options to limit or block cookies can be adjusted by modifying the settings of your Internet browser. Most Internet browsers are initially set to accept cookies automatically; however, users can change these settings to block cookies or to be alerted whenever cookies are sent to their device. There are various ways to manage cookies. To this end, please refer to your browser’s help screen to check how to adjust or modify its settings. Users are indeed entitled to modify the default configuration and disable cookies (i.e., block them permanently) by setting the highest level of protection.
Below is the path to manage cookies from the following browsers:
If users use different devices to view and access sites (e.g., computers, smartphones, tablets, etc.), they must ensure that each browser on each device is adjusted to reflect their cookie preferences. To delete cookies from the Internet browser of a smartphone/tablet, please refer to the device’s user manual.
