Dear Visitor,
This website (www.maem-informatica.it) is owned by the company MAEM-INFORMATICA, located at Via Avegno 4, Varese, VAT Number 02860360128.
As cookies are used for various purposes on our site, we would like to explain what cookies are and how they are used on the site through this policy.
Some cookies (so-called first-party cookies) are transmitted and controlled directly by us. Through these cookies, the Company collects and processes certain personal data about you. In this policy, also pursuant to Article 13 of Legislative Decree 196 of June 30, 2003 (the “Privacy Code”) and Article 13 of EU Regulation 2016/679 of April 27, 2016, concerning the protection of individuals with regard to the processing of personal data (hereinafter, the “Regulation,” the Regulation and the Privacy Code are together defined as the “Applicable Law”), we explain how we collect these data, for what purposes, and what your rights are.
Other cookies (so-called third-party cookies) are transmitted and controlled by third parties. In this policy, you will find links to the policies published by these third parties, which we ask you to read carefully.
A. What cookies are and what they are used for
Cookies are small text files that websites visited by the user send directly to the user’s terminal (usually the browser), where they are stored to be then retransmitted to the same websites during the next visit by the same user (so-called first-party cookies). While browsing a website, the user may also receive cookies from different sites or web servers (so-called third-party cookies); this happens because the website visited may contain elements such as images, maps, sounds, specific links to web pages of other domains that reside on servers different from the one on which the requested page is located. In other words, these are cookies that are set by a website other than the one you are currently visiting.
Cookies can have a duration limited to a single browsing session (so-called session cookies) and in this case, they deactivate automatically once the browser is closed; or they may have a predetermined expiry date and, in this case, will remain stored and active on your hard disk until that expiry date, continuing to collect information during different browsing sessions on the browser (so-called permanent cookies).
Cookies are used for different functions. Some are necessary to allow you to browse the site and use its features (so-called technical cookies). Others are used to obtain statistical information, in aggregate or non-aggregate form, on the number of users accessing the site and how the site is used (so-called monitoring or analytics cookies). Others, finally, are used to track your consumer profile and display advertisements on the site that may be of interest to you, as they align with your tastes and consumption habits (so-called profiling cookies).
To learn more about these different categories of cookies, continue reading this policy. Find out how they work and what they are used for, and choose freely whether to consent to their use or block it.
B. Technical cookies
Technical cookies are used on the site solely to enable you to navigate the site and use its features. These are always first-party cookies, as they are transmitted directly by us on the site.
Some technical cookies are essential to provide you with an optimal browsing experience or to allow you to authenticate on the site, for example, to make a purchase on the site or enter your reserved area (so-called navigation cookies). Navigation cookies are usually session cookies and, therefore, once the browsing session is closed, they are automatically deactivated.
Other technical cookies are useful to allow you to store some of your preferences (for example, the language or country of origin) without having to reset them on subsequent visits (so-called functionality cookies). For this reason, functionality cookies are often persistent, as they remain stored on your computer even after closing the browsing session, until their expiry date or until you decide to delete them.
The following technical cookies are currently used on the site:
Cookie Name: Typo 3 Cookie Category: first-party technical cookie, navigation, session, functionality Cookie Function: site operation As required by current privacy legislation, your prior consent is not required for the installation of these cookies.
