Cookie Policy

With reference to the provision “Identification of simplified procedures for the information notice and the acquisition of consent for the use of cookies” dated May 8, 2014 (Published in the Official Gazette No. 126 of June 3, 2014), the characteristics and purposes of the cookies installed by tutuscia.confcooperativelazionord.com are described in a specific and analytical manner, indicating how users can select/deselect individual cookies.

By browsing tutuscia.confcooperativelazionord.com, you consent to the use of cookies.

If you would like more information or clarification regarding our Cookie or Privacy Policy, you can contact us at the following email address: lazionord@confcooperative.it.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files sent by the website you are browsing to the device you are using (such as a PC, tablet, smartphone, etc.). These files are typically stored through browsers (such as Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome, Opera, etc.). While browsing a website, users may also receive cookies from other websites or web servers—these are known as “third-party” cookies. This happens when the site being visited contains elements from other websites (such as images, videos, advertising banners, links, maps, etc.). In short, these are cookies that do not belong to the website currently being visited.

What Are Cookies Used For?

Cookies are commonly used to perform session tracking, to authenticate a user without requiring them to enter their username and password every time, or to store their preferences.
Typically, cookies are used in a completely harmless way with the goal of improving the user experience on the website.

Cookies are essential elements for a website; without them, certain operations would not be possible—or at least not as secure and easy to perform. This is especially true for home banking websites, where users carry out online transactions (such as making a transfer or accessing an account statement) quickly and securely.

Cookies also have a duration; they can remain in the user’s system for extended periods and may contain a unique identification code. This allows websites that use them to track the user’s navigation within the site for statistical or advertising purposes.

Types of Cookies

In order to properly regulate cookies, it is necessary to distinguish them based on the purposes pursued by those who use them, since there are no specific technical features that differentiate one cookie from another. This approach has also been adopted by legislators who, in implementing the provisions of Directive 2009/136/EC, established the obligation to obtain users’ prior and informed consent for the installation of cookies used for purposes other than purely technical ones (see Article 1, paragraph 5, letter a) of Legislative Decree No. 69 of May 28, 2012, which amended Article 122 of the Privacy Code).

Let’s take a closer look at the types of cookies currently used on websites.

1. TECHNICAL COOKIES

So-called technical cookies are used for navigation and to facilitate user access and interaction with the website. Technical cookies are essential, for example, to access services like Google or Facebook without having to log in during every session. They are also crucial for sensitive operations such as home banking or payments by credit card or other systems.

2. ANALYTICS COOKIES

This type of cookie, known as “analytics cookies,” is used by website operators to collect aggregated information about the number of users and how they interact with the site. This data is then used to generate general statistics about the service and its usage. An example of this is Google Analytics cookies, which—when anonymized—are typically used to improve the usability and overall user experience of the website.

Can Analytics Cookies Be Considered Technical Cookies?

The Data Protection Authority has stated that these cookies can be considered technical only if “they are used directly by the website owner for site optimization purposes, and only if they collect aggregated information on the number of users and how they interact with the site. Under these conditions, analytics cookies are subject to the same rules regarding information and consent as technical cookies.”

3. PROFILING COOKIES

These cookies are used to track user navigation in order to create profiles based on their tastes, preferences, interests, and even search history. You’ve likely come across ads for a product you had just searched for online—this happens because your interests have been profiled. These cookies are used to generate targeted advertising campaigns based on your interests.

4. THIRD-PARTY COOKIES

Third-party cookies, as mentioned earlier, are all cookies generated by domains external to the website hosting them and therefore cannot be directly controlled by the site owner or webmaster.

Third-party cookies can be of the “analytics” type, meaning they are used to collect anonymous information about how users interact with the site, such as: pages visited, time spent on the site, traffic sources, geographic origin, age, gender, and interests for marketing campaign purposes.

There are also third-party profiling cookies, which are external to our website and are used to store a profile of users’ habits for commercial purposes or for any other purposes unrelated to the improvement and optimization of the website itself.

A website may also use cookies deployed by third-party software to integrate additional functionalities—such as social media icons and user preferences for sharing website content, or the use of third-party services (like mapping tools and other software offering extra features). These cookies are sent by third-party domains and partner sites that provide their functionalities within the pages of the website using them.

What cookies does tutuscia.confcooperativelazionord.com use?

tutuscia.confcooperativelazionord.com uses only technical cookies and third-party analytics cookies on its website.

2. THIRD-PARTY ANALYTICS COOKIES

tutuscia.confcooperativelazionord.com exclusively uses third-party analytics cookies, specifically Google Analytics cookies, which are used to monitor user statistics of visitors to our site with the sole purpose of optimizing and improving the user experience. The Google Analytics cookies (third-party cookies) on our site collect statistics about users in an aggregated form, meaning they will never allow tracking of individual users. As mentioned earlier, this data (including daily visits, pages visited, aggregated data of visits by operating system, browser used, etc.) is used solely to improve and optimize the navigation of tutuscia.confcooperativelazionord.com and is stored directly on Google’s servers, which manage the privacy of this data.
