GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT COOKIES

This extended disclosure on Cookies, the so-called “Cookie Policy”, is provided by Acetum Spa with the specific aim of illustrating to every User the type and means of use of single cookies used by the website www.acetum.it.

Definition

Cookies are strings of text composed of portions of code sent by a web server (for example, a site) to an internet browser and installed within this browser. In particular, they concern small text files that the sites visited by users send to their terminals, where they are memorised to then be retransmitted to the same sites in the case of successive visits. Almost all browsers are set to allow the automatic archiving of cookies on the terminal of the User.

Cookies are used for various means, have different characteristics and can be used both by Acetum Spa as well as third parties. Cookies can be subdivided according to the following categories (based on the classification proposed in Opinion 04/2012 relating to the exemption of consent for the use of cookies issues by the Working Group under art. 29 within the community):

Session or permanent cookies

Technical or profiling cookies

First or third party cookies

Session or permanent cookies

Cookies can expire at the end of a browser session (the period between the opening of a window in the browser by the User and its closure) or they can be conserved for a longer period of time. Session cookies are those that allow websites to connect the actions of a user during a browser session. Session cookies expire when the browser session ends. Permanent cookies are conserved by the device of a user between browser sessions, for varying periods of time, and allow for the memorisation of preferences or actions on the part of the User with regard to a website.

Technical and profiling cookies

Technical cookies are those which are used by the owner of a website with the sole aim of transmitting a communication over an electronic communication network, or to the extent that is strictly necessary for the company to provide the information explicitly requested by the subscriber or user. For the installation of such Cookies, the prior consent of Users is not requested where they are used directly by the manager of the site.

Profiling Cookies are designed to create profiles relevant to the User and are used for the aim of sending advertising messages in line with the preferences displayed by the User during their online navigation. In view of the particular invasiveness that such Cookies can have in the private sphere of Users, European and Italian regulations specify that the User must be adequately informed on the use of these, through a brief notice (banner) and an extended description on the site, and that he/she must express his/her explicit consent the first time they visit the site. This consent can be expressed generally, interacting with the banner displaying the brief notice present on the landing page of the site in the way indicated by this banner, or can be provided or negated in a selective manner, according to the means indicated below. This consent is tracked upon successive visits. The User nevertheless always has the possibility of revoking the consent already expressed either partially or fully.

First or third party Cookies

A “first party” or “third party” Cookie is designated as such depending on the website or domain from which it originates.

First party Cookies are, essentially, the Cookies set and/or managed by the owner of the site. For these Cookies, responsibility for disclosure, acquisition of consent and/or allowing possible blocks of Cookies falls to the owner of the site.

Third party Cookies are Cookies set by a domain other than the domain visited by the User. For these Cookies, responsibility for disclosure and for indication of the processes by which users can consent to or block these Cookies falls to the third party, while the owner of the site is only obliged to insert into the website the link to the third party site where such elements are available.
