Cookies we use

Introduction

This policy aims to explain how this website uses cookies in order to provide clear and relevant information to allow users to make their own choices in order to control what happens when they access the site. The policy uses the term ‘cookie’ to refer to cookies and similar technologies covered by the law (such as, for example, Local Shared Objects – commonly referred to as ‘flash cookies’, web beacons or bugs, including transparent clear gifs). The information collected concerns data that could allow the identification of users/visitors through association and processing with data held by third parties (such as, for example, IP address numbers, domain names of computers used by people who connect to the website). These data are used only for statistical purposes..

IThis document is an integral and substantial part of the Privacy Policy and of the information contained therein, also issued pursuant to art. 13 of Legislative Decree no. 196 of 2003 (Code for the protection of personal data, Italian law implementing the aforementioned European directives) and EU Regulation no. 2016/679 (GDPR). The reader is therefore invited to read this document.

Applicable law

This matter is regulated by European Directive 2002/58 /EC – subsequently amended by Directive 2009/136 /EC and transposed by the national legislation of the Member States of the European Union – which requires consent for cookies and similar technologies..

What is a cookie?

A cookie is a small text file, usually letters and numbers, downloaded to a device when you access the website. Cookies are then sent to the original site each time you visit. Cookies are useful because they allow a website to recognize a user’s device.

The use of cookies and similar technologies has long been a common factor as cookies are important in the provision of many online services. The use of these technologies is not, therefore, prohibited by law but requires that you be informed about cookies and offered the opportunity to accept them or not.

Different types of cookies

Session cookies and persistent cookies

Cookies can expire at the end of a browser session (i.e. from when a user opens the browser window until they leave the browser) or they can be stored longer.

Session Cookies – allow websites to link a user’s actions during a browser session. They can be used for a variety of purposes, such as remembering what a user has put in their shopping cart while browsing a site. They could also be used for security when a user accesses internet banking or to facilitate the use of webmail. These session cookies expire after a browser session.

The use of so-called session cookies (which, in any case, are not permanently stored on the user’s computer and are automatically deleted as soon as the browser is closed) is strictly limited to the purpose of transmitting data (consisting of random numbers generated by the server) that identify the specific session and are necessary to enable safe and efficient browsing. The session cd cookies used in this site avoid the use of other computer techniques potentially detrimental to the confidentiality of users’ browsing the network.

Persistent cookies – are stored on your device between separate browser sessions and allow you to remember your actions on a site. Persistent cookies may be used for a variety of purposes, including to remember your preferences and choices when using a site (or in some cases through multiple websites).

“First” and “third party” cookies” – The fact that a cookie is a ‘prior’ or ‘third party’ cookie is closely linked to the website or domain that uses that cookie. The “first party” cookies, in essence, are the cookies set by the same website visited by the user – that is the site displayed in the URL window: in our case, the cookies set by www.lucyhomesorrento.com. The “third party” cookies are the cookies that are set by a domain other than that visited by the user: that is, the cookies that are set by websites other than www.lucyhomesorrento.com. If a user visits a website and a third company sets a cookie through that site, this specific cookie is a “third party” cookie.

Data Controller

LucyHome Sorrento, as identified in the Privacy policy, is the data controller of – and responds for – only its own cookies, i.e. “first party”; otherwise, “third party” cookies are the property of their respective companies, identified according to the table contained in this document..

Consent for cookies

Some cookies are strictly necessary for the proper functioning of the Internet and do not require your consent, such as those to ensure that the content of a page is uploaded quickly and effectively, the distribution of the workload between different computers or those designed to ensure security.

Other cookies are still reasonably necessary or important, but they are not strictly indispensable and, therefore, require the user’s consent.

This site implements various techniques for the collection of user consent: a way is the selection of the specific box on the banner cookie published on the page of access to the site and that gives evidence of the use of cookies.

Your browser settings are another means of giving your consent to or rejecting cookies, and you can set your browser to warn you that cookies are present and let you decide whether or not to accept cookies. You can also automatically reject all cookies by activating the cookie option in your browser.

Each browser highlights instructions to that purpose.

Withdrawal of consent

Your consent to the use of cookies may be withdrawn at any time, although such withdrawal may have an impact on the functionality of the website.
