4) Types of Cookies

  1. The website www.miotsrl.com uses cookies to make the user’s browsing experience easier and more intuitive: cookies are small strings of text used to store certain information that may concern the user, their preferences, or the Internet access device (computer, tablet, or mobile phone). They are primarily used to adapt the site’s operation to the user’s expectations, offering a more personalized browsing experience and memorizing the choices made previously.
  2. A cookie is a small set of data transferred to the user’s browser from a web server and can only be read by the server that made the transfer. It is not executable code and does not transmit viruses.
  3. Cookies do not record any personal information, and any identifiable data will not be stored. If you wish, you can prevent the saving of some or all cookies. However, doing so may affect your use of the site and the services offered. To proceed without changing your cookie settings, simply continue browsing.
  4. This website may use, including in combination with each other, the following types of cookies classified according to the indications of the Privacy Guarantor and the Opinions issued at European level by the Working Group pursuant to Article 29 of the GDPR:
    • Session cookies are not stored permanently on the user’s computer and are deleted when the browser is closed. They are strictly limited to the transmission of session identifiers necessary to enable safe and efficient exploration of the site, avoiding the use of other IT techniques that could potentially compromise the privacy of users’ browsing.
    • Persistent cookies are those that remain stored on a computer’s hard drive until they expire or are deleted by the user/visitor. Persistent cookies automatically recognize visitors to the site (or any other users using the same computer) each time they visit. Visitors can set their browser to accept/reject all cookies or to display a warning each time a cookie is proposed, allowing them to decide whether or not to accept it. Users can, however, change the default settings and disable cookies (i.e., block them permanently) by selecting the highest security level.
    • Technical cookies are used for authentication, to access multimedia content such as Flash Player, or to enable language selection. Therefore, in general, it is not necessary to obtain the user’s prior informed consent. This category also includes cookies used to statistically analyze site access/visits, provided they are used exclusively for statistical purposes and through the collection of information in aggregate form.
    • Profiling and marketing cookies. Their use on users’ terminals is prohibited unless they have been adequately informed and have given valid consent through the opt-in process. These types of cookies can be grouped according to their functions:
    • Analytics cookies are used to collect and analyze statistical information on access/visits to the website. In some cases, combined with other information such as the credentials entered to access restricted areas (your email address and password), they can be used to profile the user (personal habits, sites visited, content downloaded, types of interactions, etc.).
    • Widgets: This category includes all those graphical components of a program’s user interface that are intended to facilitate user interaction with the program itself. Examples of widgets include Facebook and Twitter cookies.
    • Advertising: This category includes cookies used to advertise on a website. Google and Tradedoubler also fall into this category.

5) Technical cookies

  1. Technical cookies are those used for the sole purpose of “carrying out the transmission of a communication over an electronic communications network, or to the extent strictly necessary for the provider of an information society service explicitly requested by the subscriber or user to provide such service” (see art. 122, paragraph 1, of the Privacy Code).
  2. Technical cookies do not require the user’s prior consent. They are used to enable the site to function and/or to provide the user with a service or function expressly requested. Cookies therefore ensure normal navigation and use of the Sites, also allowing the user’s preferences to be saved and thus optimizing their navigation. The Sites use both first-party and third-party technical cookies.
  3. The technical cookies actually used by the site, or that could be used by the site, are divided into:
    • “user input” cookies: session cookies used to track the data provided by the user by filling out the appropriate online forms (for example, the forms present during the purchase process for entering the shipping or billing address) or, as occurs in the case of the shopping cart, to remember the items that the user has selected and placed in the cart by clicking the appropriate button;
    • Authentication cookies: cookies used to identify the user after logging in and allow them to authenticate and access the content and/or features for which such log-in is required (e.g., purchases, access to the Personal Area);
    • other functionality cookies: cookies that are used to activate specific features of the Sites and to store the choices made by the User regarding the display of the pages of the Sites;
    • “cookie Consent”: a cookie that documents the User’s consent to the installation of profiling cookies by performing one of the actions described in the banner/short notice. It recognizes the User upon their second access to the site so as not to request consent to the installation of cookies again. It has a duration of 12 months.

6) Third-party cookies

  1. Depending on their origin, a distinction is made between cookies sent to the browser directly from the site you are visiting and third-party cookies sent to your computer from other sites and not from the one you are visiting.
  2. Permanent cookies are often third-party cookies. Most third-party cookies are tracking cookies used to identify online behavior, understand interests, and thus personalize advertising for users.

7) Analytical cookies

  1. Analytical cookies are used to collect statistical information, in aggregate or non-aggregate form, on the number of users accessing a service.
  2. Analytical cookies are developed directly by www.miotsrl.com and are used to collect aggregate information for analysis purposes for the site itself.
  3. This type of cookie does not require the user’s prior consent as it is similar to technical cookies.
