III – COOKIES

1 – Type of Cookies

1. The E-Cycle website uses cookies to make the user’s browsing experience easier and more intuitive: cookies are small text strings used to store certain information that may relate to the user, his/her preferences or Internet access device (computer, tablet or mobile phone) and are mainly used to adapt the site’s functionality to the user’s expectations, offering a more personalised browsing experience and memorising the choices previously made.
2. A cookie consists of a small set of data transferred to the user’s browser by a web server and can only be read by the server that carried out 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, in this case your use of the website and the services offered may be impaired. To proceed without changing your cookie options, simply continue browsing.

Below are the types of cookies of which the site makes use:

2 – Technical cookies

1. There are numerous technologies used to store information on the user’s computer, then collected by the websites. Among these, the best known and most widely used are HTML cookies. They are used for browsing and to facilitate access and use of the site by the user. They are necessary in order to transmit communications on digital networks or to the supplier to provide the service requested by the customer.
2. The settings for managing or deactivating cookies may vary depending on the Internet browser used. In any case, the user can manage or request the general deactivation or deletion of cookies by modifying the settings of their Internet browser. Such deactivation may slow down or prevent access to certain parts of the site.
3. The use of technical cookies enables the safe and efficient use of the site.
4. Cookies that are placed in your browser and transmitted via Google Analytics or the blogger statistics service or similar are technical only if they are used for site optimisation purposes directly by the site owner, who may collect information in aggregate form on the number of users and how they visit the site. Under these conditions, the same rules on information and consent apply to analytics cookies as to technical cookies.
5. From the point of view of duration, a distinction can be made between temporary session cookies, which are automatically deleted at the end of the browsing session and serve to identify the user and therefore avoid logging in on each page visited, and permanent cookies, which remain active on the computer until they expire or are deleted by the user.
6. Session cookies may be installed in order to allow access and remain in the reserved area of the portal as an authenticated user.
7. They are not stored persistently but exclusively for the duration of navigation until the browser is closed and disappear when the browser is closed. Their use is strictly limited to the transmission of session identifiers consisting of random numbers generated by the server and necessary to allow secure and efficient exploration of the site.

3 – Third-party cookies

1. 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. Persistent cookies are often third-party cookies.
3. Most third party cookies are tracking cookies used to detect online behaviour, understand interests and thus personalise advertising propositions for users.
4. Third-party analytical cookies may be installed. These are sent from third party domains outside the site.
5. Third-party analytical cookies are used to collect information about user behaviour on E-Cycle. The collection is done anonymously, in order to monitor the performance and improve the site’s user experience. Third-party profiling cookies are employed to create user profiles, in order to propose advertising messages in line with the choices expressed by the users themselves.
6. The use of these cookies is governed by the rules laid down by the third parties themselves, so users are invited to read the privacy notices and the instructions for managing or disabling cookies published on the relevant web pages.

– of the data subject’s right to ask the data controller for access to personal data (art. 15 EU Regulation), their update (art. 7, co. 3, lett. a) Legislative Decree 196/2003), rectification (art. 16 EU Regulation), integration (art. 7, co. 3, lett. a) Legislative Decree 196/2003) or restriction of processing concerning him/her (art. 18 EU Regulation) or to object, for legitimate reasons, to their processing (art. 21 EU Regulation), as well as the right to data portability (art. 20 EU Regulation);

– the right to obtain certification that the updating, rectification, integration of data, deletion, blocking of data, transformation have been brought to the attention, also as regards their content, of those to whom the data were communicated or disseminated, unless this requirement proves impossible or involves a manifestly disproportionate to the protected right (art. 7, co. 3, lett. c) Legislative Decree no. 196/2003);

3. Requests may be addressed to the data controller, without formalities or, alternatively, using the form provided by the Garante for the Protection of Personal Data, or by sending an email to: info@e-cycle.it
4. If the processing is based on art. 6, paragraph 1, lett. a) – express consent to use – or art. 9, paragraph 2 lett. a) – express consent to use genetic data, biometric data, data relating to health, data revealing religious or philosophical beliefs or trade union membership, data revealing racial or ethnic origin, political opinions – the user has the right to withdraw consent at any time without prejudice to the lawfulness of the processing based on the consent given before the revocation.
