• Cookie

What are cookies? A cookie is a small text file that stores brief information about your browsing on a particular website and is installed on your device when you log in. Each cookie contains various data (e.g., the name of the server it comes from, a numeric identifier, etc.), may remain on your system for the duration of a session (until you close your browser) or for long periods, and may contain a unique identifier.

When you visit the site again, they will be forwarded to the site that generated them (first party cookies) or to those provided by third parties able to recognize them (third party cookies).

Viro S.p.A.  wishes to reassure you about the security of the cookies on its website: they do not damage your device in any way, but they will allow you to navigate more quickly, offering you a better experience.

What are they used for? Cookies are used for different purposes depending on their type: some are strictly necessary for the proper functioning of a website (technical cookies), while others optimize performance to provide a better user experience or allow you to acquire statistics on the use of the Site, such as analytics cookies, or allow you to view personalized advertising, such as profiling cookies.

On Viro S.p.A.’s website can be activated:

• Technical cookies (which do NOT require your consent):

These are cookies that are necessary for the operation of the site and allow you to access its functions (so-called navigation cookies) or authenticate yourself in the session.

There is also the use of functional cookies, which allow you to store your preferences and settings, thereby improving your browsing experience on the site.

To ensure their functionality, as a rule, these cookies are not deleted when you close the browser, however, have a fixed duration (usually up to a maximum of 2 years) and after this period is automatically deactivated. These cookies and the data they collect will in no way be used for any further purposes.

The installation of technical cookies occurs automatically after accessing the site or to activate certain features (e.g. by selecting the “remember me” option). You can always decide to disable them at any time by changing the settings of your browser: in this case, you may, however, experience some problems viewing the site.

• Purpose of the processing: to ensure the proper functioning and security of the site;
• Legal basis of the processing: the legitimate interest of Viro S.p.A. in the proper functioning of the site and the safety of navigation, regularly balanced with the rights of the data subject (art. 6, paragraph 1, lett. f, GDPR).

 

• Anonymized analytical cookies (which could require your consent)

These cookies keep track of the choices made on the site and data relating to the online navigation of users (for example, pages viewed, time spent on a page, etc.), in order to perform statistical analysis, in an anonymous and aggregate form. These tools can be used only after the expression of the user’s consent.

An exception to this rule is only in the event that the following circumstances occur:

– the IP address has been duly anonymized;

– the information obtained with analytical cookies refer to a single computer resource (site, app, etc..) and are used only in an anonymous and aggregate form;

– the cookie provider does not combine the information with other processing and does not pass it on to third parties.

If these requirements are met, the complete anonymization of the data collected is guaranteed and also the cookies falling into this category can be activated without the need for user consent, precisely because the data processed cannot be linked to any identifiable user.

• Purpose of the processing: to have statistics relating to the behaviour of users on the Site, based on aggregated and anonymized data.
• Legal basis: as appropriate:
• the legitimate interest of Viro S.p.A. in optimizing the performance of the Site and improving the services provided through the Site, regularly balanced with the rights of the data subject (art. 6, paragraph 1, lett. f, GDPR);
• the user’s consent (art. 6, paragraph 1, lett. a, GDPR), freely given and revocable at any time, through the cookies banner or by following the instructions below and in the Cookie Policy.

 

• Profiling and marketing cookies (which require your CONSENT):

The installation of profiling and third-party cookies, on the other hand, is subject to the prior consent of the data subject given through the banner or also managed at any time through the Cookie Policy.

Profiling cookies can include several categories, including advertising profiling, retargeting or social cookies.

– Advertising profiling cookies: they create a user profile that enables the display of advertising content in line with the preferences expressed when browsing the site;

– Retargeting cookies: these are created in order to send the user advertising content relating to products they have purchased or viewed on the site and in which they have expressed an interest;

– Social cookies: these are cookies relating to social network plug-ins. These cookies are managed directly by third parties and enable the display of advertising messages in line with the user’s preferences.

When you access the Site, a banner will inform you of the possible presence of profiling and retargeting cookies and, through it, you will be able to consent or not to their installation, possibly selecting the individual cookies you wish to install.

You may, however, revoke your consent at any time, without affecting your ability to visit the site and to enjoy its contents.

The installation of profiling, retargeting, analytical and social cookies, including any other activity related to them, is managed through third party services. For more information about the use (or not) of these cookies by the Site, and about their activation or deactivation, you can access the information provided directly by the third party companies: the relevant list is available in our Cookie Policy.

The user is informed both through the short information notice (banner displayed until consent is given or denied) and through our Cookie Policy which we invite you to read carefully for all other information on the cookies used on the Site and for information on how to disable them.

• Legal basis: the user’s consent (art. 6, paragraph 1, lett. a, GDPR), freely given and revocable at any time, via the cookie banner or by following the instructions below and in the Cookie Policy.

• Social media plugins

There are some buttons on the Site that redirect the user to the Controller’s profiles on social networks. Only after clicking on these buttons, some cookies may be activated for marketing and profiling purposes by the third parties managing the social networks. The Site Owner does not directly manage these tools, but informs you of the possibility that, by using the Site’s functionalities, they may be activated. For more information, including on how to disable these cookies, we invite you to read the social networks’ privacy policies:

Disabling via browser

We would like to point out that from the website http://www.youronlinechoices.com/it/  it is possible not only to acquire further information on cookies, but also to check the installation of numerous cookies on your browser/device and, where supported, also to disable them.

Commonly used browsers (e.g., Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome, Safari) also accept cookies by default, but this setting can be changed by the user at any time. This applies to both PCs and mobile devices such as tablets and smartphones: it is a generally and widely supported feature.

Therefore, cookies can easily be deactivated or disabled by accessing the options or preferences of the browser used and generally only third party cookies can be blocked; in general, these options will only take effect for that browser and on that device, unless options are active to unify preferences on different devices. Specific instructions can be found on the options or help page of the browser itself. Disabling technical cookies, however, may affect the full and/or proper functioning of various sites, including this Site.

As a general rule, the browsers used today

• offer a “Do not track” option, which is supported by some (but not all) websites. As a result, some websites may no longer collect certain browsing data;
• offer the option of anonymous or incognito surfing: in this way no data will be collected in the browser and no browsing history will be saved, but browsing data will still be acquired by the operator of the website visited;
• allow the deletion of all or part of the stored cookies, but on a new visit to a website they are usually installed if this possibility is not blocked.

We indicate the links to the support pages of the most popular browsers (with instructions on how to disable cookies on these browsers):

• Firefox (https://support.mozilla.org/it/kb/Attivare%20e%20disattivare%20i%20cookie);
• Microsoft Edge (http://windows.microsoft.com/it-it/internet-explorer/delete-manage-cookies#ie=ie-11);
• Safari (iOS) (https://support.apple.com/it-it/HT201265);

4.     For what further purposes can you use my data?

Your personal data may also be used in order to:

• comply with legal obligations and requests from public or governmental authorities;
• manage any disputes or litigation and therefore defend the rights of Viro S.p.A. both in and out of court.

In such cases, the legal bases of the treatment will be:

• for point a), the fulfilment of a legal obligation (art. 6, paragraph 1, letter c, GDPR);

In compliance with the purposes indicated in the previous section, the staff of Viro S.p.A. may be assigned to process your data in order to provide you with the services, information or support requested.

6.     How will you process my data?

Your personal data will also be processed with the aid of electronic means for the time strictly necessary to achieve the purposes intended at the time of their collection.

7.     Are my data processed outside Europe?

In these cases, personal data will still be processed in compliance with European legislation. The transfer of data, in particular, will only take place in compliance with the provisions of Articles 45 et seq. of the GDPR. Therefore, all necessary precautions will be taken in order to ensure the most complete protection of personal data basing such transfer: a) on adequacy decisions of the third country recipients expressed by the European Commission; b) on adequate guarantees expressed by the third party recipient pursuant to art. 46 of the Regulation; c) on the adoption of corporate binding rules.
