Cookie Policy of www.sacchettovini.it

Below is the Cookie Policy for the Sacchetto s.r.l. website associated with the Sacchettovini.it domain. The purpose is to provide the user (hereinafter referred to as the Data Subject) with all information relating to the data exchanged while browsing the pages and services. This Policy applies exclusively to browsing the Sacchetto s.r.l. website (hereinafter the Website), accessible at the Internet address https://www.sacchettovini.it. We will provide information on how the Website uses cookies.

In compliance with the Provision of the Italian Data Protection Authority (hereinafter Garante) for the protection of personal data no. 229/2014 relating to identification of simplified procedures for the information and the acquisition of consent for the use of cookies and mandatory starting from June 2, 2015, Sacchetto s.r.l. provides the extended information necessary to clarify to the user what cookies are, what they do, what they are used for, what kind of cookies are present on the Website, but above all how to express your consent or denial to the storage of cookies on your terminal. (Information updated on 5/30/2015)

What are cookies and what are they used for?

Cookies (short for “cookie”) are small text files that websites visited by users send to the user’s terminal, where they are stored before being retransmitted to the same websites on subsequent visits. Websites that use cookies generate an anonymous but encrypted identification card that they deliver to the user and read upon their return. The card may contain information regarding the user’s behavior and preferences.

Who issues the cookies?

Cookies saved by the website the Data Subject is browsing are “first-party cookies” (first-party cookies). While browsing a website, the Data Subject may also receive cookies from other websites or web servers (third-party cookies). This happens because the website visited may contain elements such as images, maps, videos, sounds, or specific links to web pages on other domains (Google, YouTube, Facebook, etc.) that reside on servers other than the one hosting the requested page, but are invoked by the page itself to provide additional external services. These are called “widgets.”

How long does a cookie last?

Cookies may have a duration limited to a single browsing session (session cookies), in which case they are automatically deactivated (deleted) when the user closes the browser; or they may have a predetermined expiration date, in which case they will remain stored and active on the user’s hard disk until that expiration date (permanent cookies), continuing to be used and revalued during different browsing sessions.

Classification of cookies based on their function.

In general, cookies are used for various functions. The Garante has so far identified two macro-classifications: technical cookies and profiling cookies.

1 – Technical cookies. These are necessary to allow users to navigate websites and use their features, such as remembering their language preferences, remembering items selected during a purchase, and performing home banking operations (viewing bank statements, bank transfers, paying bills, etc.). These are therefore essential functions for proper operation. They are not used for other purposes and are normally installed directly by the website owner.

2 – Profiling cookies. These cookies are used to track the actions of data subjects browsing websites, both to simply obtain statistics on page traffic and to build a behavioral profile of the individual data subject in order to display targeted advertisements that may be of interest to them, as they are consistent with their tastes and consumer habits. For example, after visiting an e-commerce site and searching for specific products, these may be re-proposed as an advertising offer when browsing the same website at a later time. Website owners who use cookies for profiling purposes are required to notify the Data Protection Authority.

The second category generally also includes analytical cookies, generated by automatic tools associated with websites and used by their managers to obtain statistical information on the number of users who access them, how the pages are visited and the services used, etc. In many cases, the tools that generate analytical cookies reside on third-party servers (e.g.: Google Analytics ). However, it happens that analytical cookies are considered the same as technical cookies when (see the clarification document from the Guarantor):

  • – are generated and used directly by the first-party website for the sole purpose of improving its usability.
  • – are generated by third-party tools associated with the website, [A] adopting specific techniques that reduce the identifying capacity of the cookies (for example by masking significant portions of the IP) and [B] verifying that the third party undertakes not to cross-reference the information contained in the cookies with other information it already possesses.

Which cookies require the consent of the interested party and for which cookies it is mandatory to provide him with all the information he needs to know

Technical cookies do not require explicit consent from the data subject, while cookies generated by a first-party website and used for profiling purposes require it. Therefore, unlike technical cookies, profiling cookies cannot be saved on the data subject’s device until their consent is obtained. Consent to third-party cookies—for which a website requires technical consent—must be managed directly on the third-party websites or services.

Both types of cookies used by a website require a detailed description in the privacy policy. Since it’s impossible to know all the cookies generated by the third parties used, it’s sufficient to provide an aggregated description of each cookie in the service privacy policy, referring to the third-party links that provide the relevant information on the cookies generated and how to authorize or deny consent.

Some examples to understand

  • – [Ex. 1] Cookies released by Google Analytics after masking the IP address and after the website owners have denied Google the right to use the information collected for purposes other than statistical purposes (which is possible) can be considered the same as technical cookies and therefore do not require consent, but only an indication in the extended information notice.
  • – [Ex 2] Other third-party elements or services included in the website pages that almost certainly generate cookies (e.g. the generic social network plugins of facebook, twitter, AddThisshareaholic, advertising banner AdSense, video by YouTube, maps of Google Maps, etc.) are instead subject to consent by the interested party but not so much on the first-party website (which is only the technical intermediary) but rather on third party websites. The owner of the first-party website that includes the elements is also required to include updated links to the third-party information and consent forms in the extended privacy policy.
  • – [Ex. 3] If cookies set by a third-party element included in the first-party website are also used in any way for user profiling purposes by the operator of the first-party website (under an agreement), then explicit consent to the setting of cookies on the first-party website is required. If consent is not given by the Data Subject, the third-party elements that generate the profiling cookies must be hidden/disabled so that they do not generate the cookies.
  • – [Ex. 4] Simple redirect links to other websites or third-party services do not generate cookies and are therefore not subject to the regulation.

Google Analytics ( _gat,_ga, )cookie 3rd partThe Website uses this type of web analytics service provided by Google Inc. to obtain aggregate statistical information useful for evaluating the use of the Website and visitor activity. Google stores the information collected by the cookie on servers that may be located in the United States. Google reserves the right to transfer the information collected by its cookies to third parties where required to do so by law or where the third party processes the information on its behalf. Google will not associate your IP address with any other data held by Google in order to obtain a more detailed user profile. The Google Analytics service has been configured to use pre-anonymized data with the anonymizeIp function, which masks the last part of the Data Subject’s IP address. Further information on privacy management and/or how to refuse or delete this type of cookie is available at the URL: http://www.google.com/policies/technologies/cookies/. The Data Subject can selectively disable the action of Google Analytics by installing the opt-out component provided by Google on their browser.
