What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files created by a server and stored on the computer's hard disk or any device used by the user to access the Internet (smartphone, tablet, etc.).

Plugins with advanced privacy protection functions for users are installed on this site, which do not send or access cookies on the user's browser upon opening the page but only after clicking the plugin. The collection and use of information by these third parties are governed by their respective privacy policies, which you should refer to.

Google Analytics

This website also includes certain components transmitted by Google Analytics, a web traffic analysis service provided by Google, Inc. (“Google”). In this case, too, these are third-party cookies collected and managed anonymously to monitor and improve the performance of the hosting site (performance cookies). Google Analytics uses "cookies" to collect and analyze information about users' usage behaviors on websites (including the user's IP address). This information is collected by Google Analytics, which processes it to generate reports regarding activities on the websites themselves. This site does not use (and does not allow third parties to use) Google's analysis tool to monitor or collect personal identification information. Google does not associate the IP address with any other data possessed 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. For further information, please refer to the link below: https://www.google.it/policies/privacy/partners/

The user can selectively disable the action of Google Analytics by installing the opt-out component provided by Google on their browser. To disable Google Analytics, please refer to the link below: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout

Use of IP Addresses

An IP address is a number automatically assigned to your computer each time you connect to the Internet through your Internet Service Provider or from a corporate LAN/WAN network that uses the same Internet protocols. Like a home address to which others can send material, the IP address is used by our website to send you its pages.

Transfer of Personal Data to Non-European Union Countries

Data collected using Google cookies may be transferred outside the European Union, precisely to the United States. Data collected using all other cookies will not be further disseminated.

Processing Methods

The processing is carried out with automated tools by the Data Controller. This site does NOT use any profiling cookies to pursue marketing-related behavioral analysis purposes* (see note at the bottom of the page and insert text in case of profiling cookie usage!).

Subjects Authorized for Processing

The data collected through cookies will be processed by employees, collaborators of the Data Controller, or external parties, as data processors and persons in charge of processing, who perform technical and organizational tasks on behalf of the Controller. A complete and updated list of the Data Processors appointed by the Data Controller can be obtained by writing via email to privacy@bioitalia.it.

Legal Basis for Processing

1) Technical navigation and functionality cookies: execution of a contract of which the User is a part (use of the Site).

2) Profiling cookies*: consent (via banner, optional, and revocable at any time).

3) Analytical cookies: legitimate interest.

Data Provision - Consent

By connecting for the first time to any page of this site, the user will see a brief information about the use of cookies at the bottom of the page. The site remembers the choice made by the user, so the brief information will not be proposed again in subsequent connections from the same device. This site processes data mainly based on user consent. The provision of consent is made through the banner placed at the bottom of the page or through the use or consultation of the site, as conclusive behavior as provided by the provision of the Guarantor for the protection of personal data (no. 229 of May 8, 2014). By using or consulting the site, visitors and users approve this privacy policy and consent to the processing of their personal data in relation to the methods and purposes described below, including any dissemination to third parties if necessary for the provision of a service. Through communication or service request forms, additional consents related to the specific purpose of the service are collected. Therefore, except for technical cookies strictly necessary for normal navigation, the provision of data is left to the will of the interested party who decides to browse the site after viewing the brief information contained in the appropriate banner and to use the services that involve the installation of cookies. However, browsing the site still involves the installation of some cookies. The provision of data and therefore consent to the collection and processing of data is optional; the user can deny consent and can revoke a consent already given at any time (via the banner at the bottom of the page or browser settings for cookies or the Contacts link). However, denying consent may result in the inability to provide certain services, and the browsing experience on the site would be compromised.

Withdrawal of Consent

The User always has the option to withdraw consent already given in whole or in part. If there are technical problems related to the provision of consent, please contact us through the channels provided by this site to allow us to provide assistance.

The Data Controller for the use of cookies on this site is: Bioitalia s.r.l., VAT: 03621811219, Via Ingegno snc, Area PIP, Lotto 43, which can be contacted, for the purposes of this policy, also via email at privacy@bioitalia.it. Furthermore, if consent has already been given but you want to change cookie permissions, you must delete them through the browser, as indicated in this information, because otherwise those already installed will not be removed. In particular, please note that it is not possible to control third-party cookies in any way, so if consent has already been given, it is necessary to proceed with the deletion of cookies through the browser (dedicated section) or by asking the third parties directly or through the website http://www.youronlinechoices.com/it/le-tue-scelte.

Duration of Cookies

Cookies have a duration determined by the expiration date (or by a specific action such as closing the browser) set at the time of installation.

Session cookies remain active only until the browser is closed or the logout command is executed.

Other cookies "survive" the closing of the browser and are available even in subsequent visits by the user. These cookies are called persistent, and their duration is set by the server at the time of their creation. In some cases, an expiration date is set, while in other cases, the duration is unlimited. However, these are cookies not intended to track the user's profile or collect data on the user's behavior.

Profiling Cookies* have a duration until the revocation of consent for this purpose, which occurs with the deletion of profiling cookies from the browser cache.

After the above-indicated storage terms have expired, the personal data of the User will be destroyed, deleted, or anonymized, in line with the technical procedures for deletion and backup.
