Cookie Notice

Dear Visitor,

This website (www.castellodicigognola.it
) is owned by Castello di Cigognola s.a.r.l., with registered office at Piazza Castello, 1 – Cigognola (PV), Italy, VAT no. IT03151850157.

Since our Website uses so-called cookies for various purposes, this notice explains what cookies are and how they are used on the Website.

Some cookies (so-called first-party cookies) are delivered and managed directly by us. Through these cookies, the Company collects and processes certain personal data relating to you. In this notice—also pursuant to Article 13 of Italian Legislative Decree no. 196 of 30 June 2003 (the “Privacy Code”) and pursuant to Article 13 of EU Regulation 2016/679 of 27 April 2016 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data (the “Regulation”; together, the Regulation and the Privacy Code are referred to as the “Applicable Legislation”)—we explain how we collect such data, for what purposes, and what your rights are.

Other cookies (so-called third-party cookies) are delivered and managed by third parties. This notice includes links to the privacy notices published by such third parties, which we ask you to read carefully.

01. What cookies are and what they are used for

Cookies are small text files that the websites visited by the user send directly to the user’s device (usually the browser), where they are stored and then re-transmitted to the same websites upon the user’s next visit (so-called first-party cookies). While browsing a website, the user may also receive cookies from different websites or web servers (so-called third-party cookies). This occurs because the visited website may contain elements such as images, maps, sounds, or specific links to web pages of other domains hosted on servers different from the one hosting the requested page. In other words, these are cookies set by a website other than the one the user is currently visiting.

Cookies may last only for a single browser session (so-called session cookies), in which case they are automatically disabled when the user closes the browser; or they may have a predetermined expiry date and remain stored and active on your hard drive until that date, continuing to collect information across different browsing sessions (so-called persistent cookies).

Cookies are used for different functions. Some are necessary to allow you to browse the Website and use its features (technical cookies). Others are used to obtain statistical information—aggregated or not—about the number of users accessing the Website and how the Website is used (tracking/analytics cookies). Finally, others are used to track a consumer profile and show you advertising on the Website that may be of interest to you, as it is consistent with your preferences and browsing habits (profiling cookies).

To learn more about these different categories, please continue reading this notice. You can understand how they work and what they are for, and freely choose whether to consent to their use or prevent it.

Technical cookies

Technical cookies are used on the Website solely to enable you to browse the Website and use its features. These are always first-party cookies, as they are delivered directly by us through the Website.

Some technical cookies are essential to provide an optimal browsing experience or to allow you to authenticate on the Website—for example, to make a purchase or access your reserved area (so-called navigation cookies). Navigation cookies are generally session cookies and are therefore automatically disabled once the browser is closed.

Other technical cookies are useful to allow you to store certain preferences (for example, language or country of origin) so you do not have to set them again during subsequent visits (so-called functionality cookies). For this reason, functionality cookies are often persistent cookies, since they remain stored on your computer even after the browser is closed, until their expiry date or until you decide to delete them.

The Website currently uses the following technical cookies:

As provided by applicable privacy legislation, your prior consent is not required for the installation of such cookies. You are, however, free to block the installation of technical cookies by changing your browser settings (see section E, no. 1 to find out how). Please note that blocking technical cookies—or deleting them later—may compromise, in whole or in part, your ability to access the Website, use all or part of it, enable or disable certain functions, or receive certain services.

Tracking or “analytics” cookies

Analytics cookies are used on the Website to collect statistical information—aggregated or not—about the number of users accessing the Website and how they visit it.

The analytics cookies on this Website are third-party cookies, as they are not delivered directly by us but by third parties. Therefore, they are not installed directly by the Company but by third parties.

The following third-party analytics cookies are installed on the Website only with your prior consent, because they are not anonymised and third parties may access non-aggregated analytics data at IP address level (in other words, by using these cookies, third parties could theoretically identify you through your IP address):

Cookie name: Google Analytics

Cookie category: third-party analytics cookie; persistent

Privacy notice / Opt-out instructions: https://www.google.com/analytics/learn/privacy.html?hl=it

For this reason, when you access the Website you will see a specific banner informing you that: (i) the Website uses third-party analytics cookies and (ii) by closing the banner, scrolling the home page, or clicking any element on the home page outside the banner, you consent to the use of cookies. If you provide consent in this manner, we will record your consent through a specific technical cookie. This will prevent the cookie banner from being displayed during your subsequent visits to the Website. Please note that if you delete this technical cookie from your browser as described in section E, no. 1, the record of your consent will be lost and the cookie banner will be displayed again during your next visit.

You are free to block the installation of analytics cookies at any time, without affecting your ability to visit the Website and use its content. To learn how, please read the third-party cookie notices carefully by following the links provided in the table above.

Profiling cookies

Profiling cookies are used to create a user profile based on the preferences and tastes you have expressed while browsing the Internet, and to display advertising messages consistent with your profile. In this way, the advertising you see on our Website may be more relevant and interesting to you.

As provided by applicable privacy legislation, the installation of such cookies requires your prior consent. For this reason, when you access the Website you will see a specific banner informing you that: (i) profiling cookies are used on the Website and (ii) by closing the banner, scrolling the home page, or clicking any element on the home page outside the banner, you consent to the use of cookies. If you provide consent in this manner, we will record your consent through a specific technical cookie. This will prevent the cookie banner from being displayed during your subsequent visits to the Website. Please note that if you delete this technical cookie from your browser as described in section E, no. 1, the record of your consent will be lost and the cookie banner will be displayed again during your next visit.

You are free to block profiling cookies at any time, without affecting your ability to visit the Website and use its content. If you choose to disable behavioural advertising, this does not mean you will no longer receive ads on the Website. However, the banners you see may not reflect your interests or preferences for the browser you are currently using.

Profiling cookies are installed by third parties acting as independent data controllers (third-party cookies). Below is a list of third-party profiling cookies currently used on the Website, together with links to the information pages provided by their developers:

Cookie name: Facebook

Cookie category: third-party profiling cookie; persistent

Privacy notice: https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/

How to manage cookies and object to their use

There are several options to manage, disable, and delete cookies.

(1) Change your browser settings

Follow the instructions provided by your browser’s manufacturer to learn how to manage, disable, or delete all cookies (technical, analytics, and profiling):

Explorer: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/196955/it

Chrome: https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/95647?hl=it

Firefox: https://support.mozilla.org/it/kb/Attivare%20e%20disattivare%20i%20cookie

Safari: https://support.apple.com/kb/PH17191?locale=it_IT

Opera: http://help.opera.com/Windows/10.00/it/cookies.html

Make your choices carefully. By indiscriminately blocking all cookies—including technical cookies—without providing a specific exception for the Website, you may no longer be able to browse the Website or use all or part of its features. In addition, by deleting all cookies from your browser, technical cookies may also be removed; as a result, you may lose the preferences you set on the Website or no longer find products or services placed in your cart.

(2) Use interactive tools provided by third parties

To disable third-party cookies, consult the privacy notices of the third parties that install analytics cookies (see section C above) or profiling cookies (see section D above) to learn about the other tools available to manage, disable, and delete cookies, and more generally to object to their use. Remember that by disabling third-party cookies: (i) you object to their use not only on this Website but on all websites where such cookies are used; and (ii) your ability to browse the Website and use its features will not be affected in any way. When you disable third-party cookies, you will still see the cookie banner on the Website’s home page; however, in this case, by closing the banner, scrolling the home page, or clicking any element outside the banner, you will not receive any third-party cookies that you have correctly disabled.

(3) Use the website www.youronlinechoices.eu/it/

Your Online Choices is a website managed by the non-profit association European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance (EDAA). The Italian version is available at www.youronlinechoices.eu/it/
. It provides information about behavioural advertising based on profiling cookies (http://www.youronlinechoices.com/it/a-proposito
) and allows Internet users to easily opt out of the installation of the main profiling cookies installed by advertising operators and used on websites (http://www.youronlinechoices.com/it/le-tue-scelte
). Before using this tool, we recommend reading carefully the general terms of service (http://www.youronlinechoices.com/it/condizioni-generali-di-servizio
), the FAQ (http://www.youronlinechoices.com/it/faqs
), and the user guide (http://www.youronlinechoices.com/it/help
).

Use Your Online Choices knowingly. Although the platform brings together many of the most important advertising companies that use cookies, some third parties that install cookies through the Website may not have joined Your Online Choices. Therefore, using Your Online Choices does not guarantee that you will not receive third-party cookies when browsing the Website. Also note that if you delete all cookies from your browser, the technical cookies released by Your Online Choices to remember your choices may also be deleted, re-enabling third-party cookies.
