This website https://sedei.eu (hereinafter also referred to as the “Site”) uses cookies.
SEDEI srls invites you to carefully read this cookie policy (hereinafter also referred to as the “Policy”), provided pursuant to Legislative Decree no. 196 of June 30, 2003, as amended, and Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (hereinafter also referred to as the “Regulation”), through which it intends to inform you about SEDEI srls’ policy regarding the use of cookies collected during your browsing.

**Types of Data Processed, Cookies Installed and Purposes of Processing**
Cookies are text files that websites (so-called publishers or first parties) visited by the user or different websites or web servers (so-called third parties) place and store on a terminal device available to the user (so-called browser), in order to record certain parameters and data communicated to the IT system.
Internet browsing software and terminal devices can store cookies and then transmit them again to the sites that generated them upon a subsequent visit by the same user, thus retaining memory of previous interaction with the site.
The information encoded in cookies may include personal data (e.g. IP address, username, a unique identifier or an email address, etc.) or non-personal data (e.g. language settings or information about the type of device the user is using to browse the site). Therefore, this Cookie Policy must in any case be read together with the Privacy Policy, where more information can be found about the processing of personal data collected through the Site.
Cookies are divided into:
* **Technical cookies**, necessary to transmit an electronic communication, to ensure proper display of the Site and navigation within it, or to provide a service explicitly requested by the user. These do not require consent;
* **Profiling cookies**, used to associate specific actions or recurring behavioral patterns in the use of functionalities offered (patterns) with identified or identifiable individuals, in order to group different profiles into homogeneous clusters of varying size, allowing the Data Controller, among other things, to tailor service provision beyond what is strictly necessary and to send targeted advertising messages consistent with user preferences expressed during web browsing;
* **Analytical cookies**, used exclusively to produce aggregated statistics related to a single site or a single mobile application;
* **Preference cookies**, which allow the Site to remember information that influences how it behaves or appears (e.g. preferred language or the user’s location).
Cookies can also be classified based on their origin as:
* **First-party cookies**, generated and managed directly by the website operator on which the user is browsing;
* **Third-party cookies**, generated and managed by entities other than the website operator.
This Site uses first- and third-party cookies, necessary technical cookies and, subject to your consent, analytical, preference and profiling cookies to enable browsing, provide services, offer a better digital experience, collect information on site usage, optimize its operation, display content and advertisements in line with your preferences, measure advertising performance and carry out ad retargeting.
Through the Site pages, it is also possible to interact directly with external web services and social networks, including via social buttons (so-called social plugins) and external platforms: these are links to third-party sites that may record information about user activity (therefore falling under third-party cookies).
**Legal Basis, Consequences of Refusal and Withdrawal of Consent**
In compliance with applicable regulations, we may store cookies on your device without your consent if they are technical cookies necessary for the functioning of the Site. However, you may disable such cookies through your browser settings; this may affect the proper functioning of some Site features.
For all other types of cookies, we require your consent, given after viewing the short information notice displayed upon access, by clicking the appropriate buttons within the cookie banner.
Closing the banner maintains default settings and therefore continues browsing without cookies or tracking tools other than technical ones.
You can change or withdraw your consent at any time via the Cookie Declaration on our site through the cookie banner popup.
In any case, you can disable cookies through your browser settings, which allow you to delete and remove cookies (all or some) or block cookies from all or certain websites.
Below are links to configuration pages of major browsers: Google Chrome – Mozilla Firefox – Apple Safari – Microsoft Internet Explorer – Opera
Disabling cookies in browser settings will not generally prevent you from using the site’s services, except for certain features such as access to restricted areas. It may, however, make browsing less functional and affect third-party services.
**Processing Methods**
The processing of personal data collected through cookies will be carried out by the Data Controller, data processors and authorized persons, using appropriate measures to ensure security and confidentiality, with electronic or automated tools, in accordance with legal principles and through suitable technical and organizational measures to ensure a level of security appropriate to the risk.
Specific technical and physical security measures will also be adopted, pursuant to Articles 5 and 32 of the Regulation, to prevent risks of loss, destruction and unauthorized access.
**Data Retention Period**
Depending on their duration, some cookies are session cookies and are deleted at the end of each browsing session; others are stored and retransmitted upon subsequent visits by the same user.
For specific retention periods, please refer to the sections of this Policy relating to each type of cookie.
**Categories of Data Recipients**
Data collected through cookies may be processed by authorized persons, independent Data Controllers or Data Processors whose activities are necessary for operations and services related to processing activities carried out through the Site or who act on the basis of legal provisions.
Any transfers of data collected through cookies to countries outside the EU will be based on an adequacy decision of the European Commission or, in cases referred to in Articles 46, 47 or 49 of the Regulation, on appropriate safeguards, including standard contractual clauses.
Personal data collected through cookies will not be disclosed.
**Your Rights**
At any time, you may exercise your rights under Articles 15 et seq. of the Regulation, including access, rectification, restriction, erasure, and objection, in accordance with Article 12.
To exercise these rights, you may contact the Data Controller by registered letter or email using the contact details provided above, also using forms available on the website of the Italian Data Protection Authority ([www.garanteprivacy.it](http://www.garanteprivacy.it)).
