This Cookie Policy is an integral part of the privacy policy of Gewiss S.p.A., with registered office in Via A. Volta, 1, 24069 Cenate Sotto (BG) (hereinafter referred to as "Gewiss") available here. This Cookie Policy applies to the following domains: www.gewiss.com (hereinafter, the "Site").
1. Definitions, characteristics and application of the regulations
Cookies are small text files that sites visited by the user send and record on his computer or mobile device, to be then transmitted to the same sites the next time he visits. Thanks to cookies, a site remembers the user's actions and preferences (such as, for example, login data, the language chosen, font size, other display settings, etc.) so that they do not have to be indicated again when the user returns to that site or navigates from one page to another of it. Cookies, therefore, are used to perform computer authentication, session monitoring and storage of information regarding the activities of users who access a site and may also contain a unique identification code that allows you to keep track of user navigation within the site for statistical or advertising purposes.
While browsing a site, the user may also receive on his/her computer cookies from sites or web servers other than the one he/she is visiting (so-called "third party" cookies). Some operations could not be carried out without the use of cookies, which in some cases are therefore technically necessary for the functioning of the site.
There are various types of cookies, depending on their characteristics and functions, and these can remain on the user's computer for different periods of time: so-called session cookies, which are automatically deleted when the browser is closed; so-called persistent cookies, which remain on the user's equipment until a preestablished expiry date.
On the basis of the applicable legislation, the use of cookies does not always require the express consent of the user. In particular, "technical cookies" do not usually require such consent, i.e. those used for the sole purpose of carrying out the transmission of a communication on an electronic communication network, or to the extent strictly necessary to provide a service explicitly requested by the user, or for purely statistical purposes and after the collection of anonymous and aggregate data. In other words, these cookies are indispensable for the functioning of the site or necessary to carry out activities requested by the user.
2. Types of cookies used by the Site
The Site uses cookies that fall into the macro-category of "technical" cookies, for which your prior consent is not required:
- Strictly Technical cookies, navigation or session cookies, which are strictly necessary for the operation of the Site or to enable you to take advantage of the content and services requested.
- Analytical cookies, which allow us to understand how the Site is used. These cookies do not collect information about your identity or any Personal Data. The information is processed in aggregate and anonymous form.
- Functionality cookies, i.e. used to activate specific features of the Site and a series of selected criteria (for example, language) in order to improve the service provided and/or to store user preferences.
The Site also uses third-party profiling cookies, i.e. cookies from sites or web servers other than those of Gewiss. These cookies are installed subject to your consent, which you can give by using the functionalities offered by our cookie banner; they are used to track your navigation (even outside the Site) and understand your tastes and preferences, in order to be able to show you personalized advertising banners that are relevant to you while you are navigating.
It should be noted that these third parties, listed below with the relevant links to their privacy policies, are typically autonomous controllers of the data collected through the cookies they serve; therefore, you should refer to their policies on the processing of personal data, disclosures and consent forms (selection and de-selection of their respective cookies), below:
