As to aspects of technical nature and protocols, we would like to inform you that:
- IT systems and software procedures used to run this website during normal operation may acquire some personal data, whose transmission is implicit in the use of Internet communication protocols.
- Such information is not collected to be associated with identified interested parties, but rather it could by virtue of its intrinsic nature, permit the identification of Users via processing operations and associations with data held by third parties.
- This data category includes: IP addresses or domain names of computers used by the Users linking up to the website, URI (Uniform Resource Identifier) notation addresses of resources requested, time of request, method used to submit request to server, size of response file, numerical code indicating server answer state (successful, error, etc.) and other parameters concerning the user’s operating systems and IT environment.
- Such data will be used solely for the purpose of extracting anonymous and aggregate statistical information on site usage and to monitor its correct operation. This data may be used to ascertain liability in the hypothesis of computer offenses directed to the detriment of the website.
What are Cookies and what do Cookies do?
A cookie is a piece of information in the form of a very small text file that is sent from a web site, while the user is browsing, to the user’s device (usually to the user’s browser) where it is stored for later use. This allows to identify the device the next time the user visits the Website. In fact, any time the user goes to the same website, cookies will be sent back unchanged from the user’s device to the website.
Each cookie usually includes: name of the Web server from which the cookie is sent; expiration date and a value, usually a unique number randomly generated by the computer. The Web server sending the cookie uses this number to identify the user’s session any time he/she returns to a website or navigate from one page to another.
Cookies can be set by (and on) the domain name that appears in the browser address bar (first-party-cookies) or set by (and on) a domain name that is not the domain name that appears in the browser address bar. It might be set as part of a side resource load (image, maps, sounds, links to website of other domains, etc) that is on the servers other than that of the browsed website.
Generally, cookies can be classified into different types according to:
1. Expiration date:
- Session cookies are only stored temporarily in the browser’s memory and automatically erased whenever you close your browser window.
- Persistent cookies usually have an expiration date in the distant future and remain in your browser until they expire or you manually delete them
2. Origin:
- First-party-cookie sent to the browser directly by the website the user is browsing.
- Third-party-cookie sent to the browser by websites other than the site the user is browsing.
3. Function and Purpose:
- Technical cookies
- Browsing/essential/performance/process or security cookies contribute to navigate a website and use its features, for example they allow navigating between its pages or accessing protected areas. If these cookies are blocked, the website will not be able to display the content correctly.
- Functional/preferences/localisation/session state cookies enable to store information that modifies the behaviour or layout of the website (preferred language, text and character size, current location). If these cookies are blocked, experience is less functional but not compromised.
- Statistic/analytics cookies of a) first-party or (b) third-party with IP masking, without data crossing, which can be equated to the technical cookie in terms of purposes, are used to collect information and to generate statistics on how the website is used to understand how visitors interact with its contents.
- Non-technical cookie
- Statistic/analytics third-party cookie without IP masking, without data crossing, is used to collect information to generate statistics on how the website is used with possible identification and tracking of the user, to understand how the visitors interact with its contents.
- Profiling/Advertising/Tracking and conversion cookies for Ad-selection based on what is pertinent to a user (customized ads). Profiling cookies are used to create user profiles and to send ad-messages according to the preferences expressed by the user during web browsing.
Simac srl, has examined the Regulation issued by the Italian Personal Data Protection Authority, namely: “Simplified Arrangements to Provide Information and Obtain Consent Regarding Cookies – 8 may 2014 (Published in the Italian Official Gazette no. 126 of June 3, 2014)”, as well as subsequent regulatory interventions by the Authority on “cookies”. Pursuant to the above-mentioned ordinance, Simac srl, would like to inform the Users that its corporate website makes use of the so-called “technical” cookies, which allow users to navigate and use a website or insofar as this is strictly necessary to the provider of an information society service that has been explicitly requested by the user to provide said service; cookies are only used for the purposes for which the data was collected and usually are installed directly by the website manager.

In particular, as to the so-called “analytics” third-party cookies, we use tools that reduces cookies identification power (for example, by masking significant portions of the IP address), and any third party does not cross the information collected with other already gathered data).

Lastly, we inform Users that out website do not use any type of the so-called “profiling” cookies
In general, besides the type of cookies used by this website, we would like to inform you that, in addition to the data protection provided by current legislation, there are some options at the user’s disposal that allow to navigate without cookies, namely:
- blocking third-party cookies: usually third-party cookies are not necessary to navigate, therefore you can switch them off as default, by adjusting your browser setting.
- Turning Do Not Track option on: most modern browsers offer Do Not Track (DNT) feature that, when enabled, automatically stops tracking your browsing behaviour and collecting some of your browsing data. However, not all websites honour this setting (discretional feature).
- Enabling “Anonymous browsing” feature: this option allows the user browsing without leaving a trace of navigation data in the browser. Websites will not remember you, pages you visit will not be stored in the history log and new cookies will be deleted. However, anonymous browsing capability does not guarantee 100% anonymity on the Internet, since it only serves to not store your navigation data in the browser, whereas your browsing data will continue to be available to website managers and connectivity providers.
- Deleting cookies directly: there are specific features to do it in all browsers. However, remember that any time you connect to Internet new cookies are downloaded, therefore, deleting shall be performed periodically. Some browsers offer automated systems for periodic deletion of cookies
