Cookie Policy

The Neticon website (hereinafter referred to as the "Website") uses Cookies to make its services simple and effective for users visiting the portal page. Cookies are text files, or parcels of information sent from a web server (the website www.neticon.it) to the user's browser, which are memorised on the computer and automatically returned to the serverevery time the website is accessed. There are various types of Cookie, some used to make using the Website more efficient, others to enable certain functions. For example, Cookies can:

  • memorise entered preferences
  • prevent users from having to re-enter the same information several times during their visit, forexample username and password
  • analyse use of the services and contents provided by the website visited in order to optimise thebrowsing experience and services offered

Types of Cookies used by the Neticon website

The types of Cookies used by the Neticon website are listed below, grouped according to their reasons for use.

Technical Cookies

This type of Cookie allows certain sections of the Website to function correctly and are essential in order to allow the user to browse the Website and use its features.

There are two categories of technical cookies:

  • persistent: once the browser has been closed these are not cancelled, but last until a pre-definedexpiry date
  • session: these are automatically cancelled each time the browser is closed

These Cookies, always sent by the "Neticon.it" domain, are necessary for the correct visualisation of the Website and, in relation to the technical services offered, will therefore always be used and sent (unless the user modifies the settings in his or her browser). Included in this category are the persistent Cookies used to allow the user to register with the Website and access its restricted area. The aforementioned Cookies used by the Website avoid the need to use otherdata processing techniques which could potentially reduce the confidentiality of the users' navigation of the website, and do not permit the acquisition of identifying personal information regarding the user.

Functionality Cookies

The Cookies in this category are used to memorise certain settings selected by the user, in order to remember theirpreferences during future visits. These Cookies can have the duration of a session but they are generally persistent and sent from the "Neticon.it" domain. They may also be used when providing a service not explicitly requested by, but provided to the user. The information gathered by these cookies is anonymous and cannot track the user's behaviour on other websites. Included in this category, for example, are Cookies used primarily to memorise the user's preferencesregarding the country of origin and therefore the language in which the text of the Website is viewed

Performance Cookies

The cookies in this category (which also include so-called "Cookie analytics") are used to gather information regardinguse of the website. The Neticon website uses this information to obtain anonymous statistical analyses in order to improve use of its Website and to adapt its contents to the desires of its visitors. This type of Cookie gathers information anonymously regarding the user's activity and how he or she arrived at the Website. Analytical cookies may be sent from the Website itself (so-called "first-party" Cookies) but they are generally sent from third party domains / websites (so-called "third-party" Cookies). Included in this category, for example, are Web Analytics, where the datagathered is limited to use of the website by the user and the number of accesses to the website, in order to manage the performance and structure of the website. These cookies are generally persistent.

Cookies to integrate products and software functions from third parties

This type of Cookie integrates functions developed by third parties into the pages of the Website such as icons and preferences expressed on social networks (for example, Facebook, Twitter) in order to share the contents of the Website or for the use of third party software services (such as software to generate maps and other software offering additional services).
