Cookie Policy

The website megoristampaggiogomma.com uses cookies and similar technologies to ensure the proper functioning of procedures and to improve the user experience of online applications. This document provides detailed information on the use of cookies and similar technologies, how they are used, and how to manage them.

Definitions

Cookies are small text files (letters and/or numbers) that allow the web server to store information on the client (the browser) to be reused during the same visit to the website (session cookies) or later, even after several days (persistent cookies). Cookies are stored, according to the user’s preferences, by the individual browser on the specific device used (computer, tablet, smartphone).

Similar technologies, such as web beacons, transparent GIFs, and all forms of local storage introduced with HTML5, can be used to collect information about user behavior and service usage.

In the remainder of this document, cookies and all similar technologies will be referred to simply as “cookies”.

Types of Cookies

Based on their characteristics and use, cookies can be divided into the following categories:

Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies are essential for the proper functioning of the website and are used to manage login and access to restricted features of the site. Some cookies are limited to the duration of the browsing session (they are deleted when the browser is closed), while others have a longer duration (expiring after 30 days) and are used to recognize the visitor’s device—through an alphanumeric code generated during the first access session—in order to restore the user’s previous choices. Disabling these cookies may compromise the use of services accessible via login. The public area of the website remains normally accessible.

Analytics and performance cookies

These cookies are used to collect and analyze website traffic and usage anonymously. Although they do not identify the user, they allow, for example, detection of whether the same user returns at different times. They also make it possible to monitor the system and improve its performance and usability. Disabling these cookies does not result in any loss of functionality.

Profiling cookies

These are persistent cookies used to identify user preferences (anonymously or not) and improve the browsing experience. This website does not use cookies of this type.

Third-party Cookies

When visiting a website, users may receive cookies either from the visited site (“first-party”) or from sites operated by other organizations (“third-party”). A notable example is the presence of social plugins for Facebook, Twitter, Google+, and LinkedIn. These are parts of the visited page generated directly by those platforms and integrated into the host website’s page. The most common use of social plugins is to share content on social networks.

The presence of these plugins involves the transmission of cookies to and from all third-party websites. The management of information collected by third parties is governed by their respective privacy policies, which users are encouraged to consult. For greater transparency and convenience, the relevant policy links and cookie management instructions are listed below:

Google Analytics

The website megoristampaggiogomma.com also includes components provided by Google Analytics, a web traffic analysis service offered by Google, Inc. (“Google”). These are third-party cookies, collected and managed anonymously to monitor and improve the performance of the host website (performance cookies).

Google Analytics uses “cookies” to collect and analyze anonymous information about website usage behavior (including the user’s IP address). This information is collected by Google Analytics and processed to generate reports on website activity. This website does not use (and does not allow third parties to use) Google’s analytics tool to track or collect personally identifiable information. Google does not associate the IP address with any other data held by Google, nor does it attempt to link an IP address with 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.

Users may selectively disable Google Analytics by installing the opt-out browser add-on provided by Google. To disable Google Analytics, please refer to the following link:

Cookie Duration

Some cookies (session cookies) remain active only until the browser is closed or the logout command is executed. Other cookies persist after the browser is closed and are available during subsequent user visits.

These cookies are known as persistent cookies, and their duration is set by the server at the time of their creation. In some cases, an expiration date is set; in others, the duration is unlimited.

megoristampaggiogomma.com uses persistent cookies. By browsing the website pages, users may interact with third-party websites that can create or modify persistent and profiling cookies.

Cookie Management

Users may decide whether to accept cookies by using their browser settings.

Warning: Completely or partially disabling technical cookies may compromise the use of website features, while disabling third-party cookies does not affect website navigation.

Settings can be configured specifically for different websites and web applications. Most modern browsers also allow different settings for first-party and third-party cookies.

For example, in Firefox, through the menu Tools → Options → Privacy, users can access a control panel where they can choose whether to accept different types of cookies and remove them.
