Definition of Cookies
Cookies are small text files that a website can ask to save on the user’s browser when he/she visits the website, and which can be re-read when the user visits a subsequent page.
When you visit our website again with the same device, the information saved in your browser through cookies will be transmitted to our website, thus allowing us to simplify your navigation, to remember your choices by also proposing them in the subsequent navigation sections and obtain information about the pages you visit and the activities you perform.
This information is mainly used to improve your browsing experience, understand your interests in order to improve the contents and services offered by our website and show you advertisements in line with your likely interests.
During your navigation in the public areas of the site, we use anonymous and first-party Technical and Analysis Cookies.
- Technical Cookies are those used for the sole purpose of carrying out the transmission of an electronic communication, to guarantee the correct visualisation of the sites and navigation within them. These Cookies also make it possible to distinguish between the various connected users in order to provide a requested service to the right user (Login), and for site security reasons;
- First-party Analysis Cookies are used directly by the site manager to collect information on the number of users and how they visit the site.
Your consent is not required for both categories of cookies.
By browsing the site, you implicitly accept the collection of Cookies which do not require express consent for processing.
Below, we give you more detailed information on the cookies we use.
Technical Cookies
While browsing the public areas of the site, we use technical cookies that do not allow users’ personal data to be stored, nor do they allow you to directly trace and/or know your identity.
Through the saved and returned information, the website can recognise a user who visited our website via the browser used on their device. This information is used to design and display the website in the best way and in line with users’ preferences.
Technical cookies include cookies necessary to browse the site (and which track data such as session IDs) and cookies that allow you to access specific functions, such as the possibility of recognising you, signalling your visit to a page or improving the your navigation comfort.
In particular, these Cookies allow us to:
- store information on forms you fill out on our site (registration or account login);
- allow you to access restricted and personal areas of our Site;
- implement security measures, for example when you are asked to access a content or service again after a certain period of time;
- adjust the appearance of the site based on your device’s display preferences (for example, the language used or screen resolution).
You can refuse the use of this type of cookie through your browser settings. If you refuse the use of these cookies, however, you may not be able to access the Site or its services.
The technical cookies we use do not represent a risk for your privacy, nor for the integrity of the computer systems you use to access the Internet communication network or the Site.
No consent is required for their collection pursuant to art. 122 Privacy Code; In any case, the data will be kept only for the time of navigation.
Direct access to the data collected by the Site is allowed only to the Data Controller and to the Hosting company, appointed for the purpose as Data Processor, where the site and all the data relating to it and collected from it are hosted.
The Hosting service provider is SeeWeb S.r.l., with registered office in Corso Lazio 9/a. 03100 Frosinone – Italy, which may potentially have access to the data, exclusively for technical reasons of necessity and urgency which require an intervention in order not to jeopardise the functionality and security of the site.
Analytical cookies
In addition to technical Cookies, on this site we use cookies to measure the audience of the various contents and different sections of our site, to assess and organise them.
These Cookies are used in particular to obtain:
- statistics and visitor volumes of our site; use the various elements that make up our site (sections and content visited, paths) to help us improve the interest and user-friendliness of our services;
- adjust the appearance of our site or advertising areas according to your device display preferences (language used, screen resolution, operating system used, etc.).
- detect browsing problems to help us improve the user-friendliness of our services.
The visitor analysis services that this site uses produce only aggregate statistics and visitor volumes and exclude all individual information.
The use of these cookies is active as soon as you log in. You can refuse the use of this type of cookie and cancel it in your browser settings (see the section in your browser). Disabling them makes navigation by the user less pleasant.
The analytical cookies we use do not represent a risk for your privacy or for the integrity of the computer systems you use to access the Internet communication network or the Site.
These are first-party analytical cookies which, unlike third-party cookies, which are created by web servers other than that of the site visited, are created and analysed by the web server of the Sentinel site.
For the analysis service, we use Matomo, a software licensed by the company Innocraft LTD (InnoCraft – Matomo Plugins Marketplace). Matomo allows you to keep track of accesses to the Site and, to the administrators of the same, to generate and view data in aggregate and anonymous form, in order to understand the use that visitors make of the Site and to compile statistics.
In addition to the pages visited, the data collected may also include, by way of example, the domain names and the type of browser of the computers used to connect to the Site, the addresses in URI (Uniform Resource Identifier) notation of the resources requests, the time of the request, parameters regarding the operating system and the IT environment used by you.
The statistics obtained allow us to improve the contents of the website and make it more interesting for users. In any case, these data do not allow identifying the users’ identity due to their nature and the methods of their processing and are therefore to be considered anonymous: in particular, the IP address is automatically made anonymous.
Matomo guarantees that the information thus aggregated will not be transferred and therefore will remain entirely with the site manager.
In particular, direct access to the data collected by the Site is allowed only to the Data Controller and to the Hosting company, appointed for the purpose as Data Processor, where the site and all the data relating to it and collected from it are hosted.
The Hosting service provider is SeeWeb S.r.l., with registered office in Corso Lazio 9/a. 03100 Frosinone – Italy, which may potentially have access to the data, exclusively for technical reasons of necessity and urgency which require an intervention in order not to jeopardise the functionality and security of the site.
Matomo guarantees that Sentinel CH. S.p.A. can always decide which data to collect and which computer centres to use for data storage.
These data are processed without the need for consent, because they are equivalent to Technical Cookies pursuant to art. 122 paragraph 1 Privacy Code.
In any case, the data will be kept for 6 months from their collection, after which they will be deleted.
