1. What are cookies

Cookies are small text strings that the Site sends to the user’s terminal, where they are placed and stored, and then transmitted back to the Site on the next visit.

Cookies differ on the basis of their use: while some cookies are strictly necessary for browsing the Site (such as those that serve to carry out navigation or to provide a service requested by the user), others pursue different purposes and therefore need the user’s consent to be installed (such as, for example, those used to create user profiles and show personalized advertising). Moreover, cookies can be first party (if installed directly by the Site) or third party (if installed by a different website, through the Site).

For a more detailed description of the characteristics of the different categories of cookies, please refer to the sections below.

2. Types of cookies

Technical Cookies

Technical cookies are necessary for the proper functioning of the Site and include:

• session or navigation cookies, necessary for the proper functioning of the Site;
• functionality cookies, which allow us to remember settings on the Site chosen by users, such as language or privacy preferences.

The installation of these cookies does not require your consent.

Analytical cookies

Analytical cookies are used to collect aggregate and/or anonymous data on the number of visitors and how they interact with the Site, in order to optimize its services.

The use of analytical cookies installed requires the user’s consent, as it is not possible to assimilate them to technical cookies. In general terms, however, we would like to inform you that in some sites other than this one, your consent may not be required if appropriate measures have been adopted to preclude the direct identification of those concerned.

The Site installs third-party analytical cookies.

This type of cookie is aimed at profiling the user to send him/her advertising messages in line with the preferences that can be deduced from web browsing. These cookies require the user’s consent.

The Site does not install first-party or third-party profiling cookies.

3. Types of cookies installed by the Site

The Site installs both first-party and third-party cookies.

First-party cookies

The first-party cookies installed by the Site include only technical cookies.

For third party technical and analytical cookies, please refer to what is indicated below under “Third Party Cookies”.

Third-party cookies

As specified in the sections above, third party cookies are installed by parties other than Italvolt. The way in which the information collected by these third parties is managed is governed by their specific privacy policies, terms and conditions, or cookie policies, listed in the table below: for further information on the use of your data by these parties, we therefore invite you to consult the corresponding documentation listed below.

We would like to remind you that, should third parties install analytical cookies, without guarantees aimed at minimizing the processing of data collected through the same cookies, and/or profiling cookies, you will be asked – when you visit our Site for the first time and, subsequently, not earlier than 6 months from the communication of your preferences – to give your consent to such third party cookies, through a specific cookie banner.

The third-party cookies installed by the Site only include analytical cookies which can be managed and may be blocked at any time by accessing the websites of the third parties listed in the table below and clicking on [“Privacy Management“].

4. Managing your cookie preferences

Banner cookies and preference center

Consent to cookies is requested by means of the banner shown when you first access the Site. Through this banner, the user may [(i) accept all cookies, (ii) refuse all cookies except the technical ones necessary for the operation of the Site, (iii) choose in a granular manner which cookies to install (by clicking on [“Privacy Management“]), or even (iv) not express any choice on cookies, by clicking on the “X” at the top right corner of the cookie banner and, in the latter case, the default settings will be maintained (which provide for the installation of only the technical cookies necessary for the operation of the Site). It is also possible for you to manage your cookie preferences at any time through the section [ “Privacy Management” ]. The disabling of cookies other than technical cookies is possible and will not affect in any way the navigation on the Site.
