Cookies

Cookies are small text files that are stored on the user’s computer by the websites they visit. They are mainly used to make websites function and operate more efficiently, as well as to provide information to the site owners. Cookies may be first-party or third-party. In the first case, the cookies are managed by the site owner, who is responsible for providing the information notice and indicating how to block them if desired. In the second case, cookies are managed by a third party different from the site owner. For these cookies, the obligation to provide the information notice and to indicate how to block them lies with the third party, while the site owner must include a link to the third party’s site where such information is available. Below are the cookies stored by our site.
1. Necessary cookies, strictly required for the use and navigation of the website. The use of session technical cookies, in particular, is limited to the transmission of session identifiers (consisting of random numbers generated by the server) necessary to allow safe and efficient browsing of the site. Such cookies avoid the use of other computer techniques potentially detrimental to users’ privacy and do not allow the acquisition of personally identifiable data. No personal user data are acquired by the site in this regard. No use is made of cookies for the transmission of personal information, nor are any so-called persistent cookies of any kind or user-tracking systems used.
2. Analytical cookies (e.g., Google Analytics), used to collect and analyze information about website usage behavior (for example, the time and date of the visit, previous visits by the same visitor, referring site, etc.). Such information (including the user’s IP address) is collected by Google Analytics, which processes it to produce reports for Giacomo Sperone I.Vi.S. S.p.A. regarding the activities on its website and to help improve the site. Google does not associate the IP address with any other data held by Google nor attempts to link an IP address to a user’s identity. Google may also disclose this information to third parties where required by law or where such third parties process the information on Google’s behalf.
3. Profiling or advertising cookies, used to present content more relevant to you and your interests. They can be used to display targeted advertisements or limit the number of times you see an ad. They also help us measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns on websites. We collect information used for interest-based advertising, according to certain general categories of interest or segments inferred based on: • The web pages viewed and links clicked on within our sites and those of other companies you visit • Brand emails you read and links clicked within those emails. Most cookies of this type track users through their IP address and therefore may collect some personally identifiable information; for this reason, your consent is required. In addition, we may use other tracking systems such as “pixel tags.” Pixel tags, sometimes called “web beacons,” function similarly to cookies but, due to their tiny size, are not visible. They are used to collect certain information on our servers to customize our websites and track user navigation across other websites. We may also use pixel tags in HTML emails. In any case, the information is not personally identifiable, even if it may be linked to your personal data.
