Cookie Policy

Spina Group S.r.l. undertakes to provide you with the best online experience when visiting the Website. For this purpose, we use our own and third-party standard cookies to obtain data regarding the online behavior of the Website users and we also record the frequency of the visits. The information collected is anonymous and does not identify the user as a specific person, unless the same users provide us with their data by filling out a form or through other features on the site. If Spina Group collects personal data, this collection and subsequent processing are governed by our Privacy Policy, above available for consultation.

 

IP addresses and cookies

For system administration, we collect information about the device, including (where available) the IP address, the operating system, and the browser version. These are statistical data on the actions and browsing behavior of our users, which do not identify the person.

For the same reason, we can obtain information on the use that users make in general of Internet, using a cookie file that is stored in the user device.

Cookies are small text files that are temporarily stored on the hard drive. The information stored in cookies is used, for example, to facilitate the navigation and, in certain cases, to increase the intuitiveness of a website. Cookies helps us to improve the Website and to provide better, more targeted content. Currently, cookies are used by Spina Group only if technically necessary or if required for the Website user, for example to carry out authentications with protected websites. In these cases, the user will receive explicit information. Most browsers are pre-configured to automatically accept cookies. However, you can set your browser to reject them or to view the received cookie notifications.

If you share your device with other people, it is advisable not to select the “remember data” option when the website suggests to do it.

 

What do we trace?

The cookies used to collect personal information on our Website are non-intrusive. We use standard third-party cookies, such as Google Analytics, to monitor online behavior and obtain statistical information at aggregate level in the following ways:

- We track the number of visits to the Website, where each visitor came from (i.e. the website the user visited prior to coming to the Website) and where each visitor goes to from our Website (i.e. the website the user visits after leaving ours), the geolocation and the behavior while browsing our Website;

- A cookie is stored on the user’s device, connected to the user’s IP address, for no more than two (2) years. This allows us to detect if you come back to the Website.

 

How to manage and reject cookies

Unless the browser settings are set up to reject all cookies, our systems will notify cookies each time the user access the Website.

User can manage cookie preferences, with reference to unnecessary cookies, selecting (accepting) or deselecting (rejecting) the cookies when he/she browse our Website for the first time and the cookie banner appears, following the instructions on the banner and on the Website. User can change their preferences for cookies at any time by clicking on “cookie preferences” at the bottom of each page or by activating the setting to refuse cookies in your browser. This will remove all data from the cookie. However, if user choose this setting, it may be impossible to access some parts of the Website or use certain features.

By continuing Website browsing (e.g. by accessing to another area of the Website or by selecting an image or a link) the user agree to the use of cookies.

The "do not track" option is available in most of the latest generation browsers. Websites which have been developed to comply with this option, should automatically stop collecting user browsing data when this setting is activated; however, we reiterate that not all websites are set up to respect this (optional) preference.

User can activate the "anonymous browsing" mode, thus without revealing data in the browser (the pages already visited will not be stored in the browsing history and new cookies will be deleted). However, the "anonymous browsing" function does not guarantee complete anonymity on internet, because it only allows not to save browsing data, while browsing data remains available to website managers and connectivity providers.

Cookies can be deleted directly by the user, through specific browser functions. However, we remind that new cookies are downloaded on every new internet connection, therefore the delete operation should be performed periodically. Some browsers offer automated systems for the recurrent deletion of cookies.

The procedure to manage and change the cookie settings is usually found in the "Options", "Tools” or "Preferences" menu of the browser.

The Big Commerce platform also installs cookies.

These are cookies necessary for the operation of the platform and analytical cookies, which are not necessary and which the user can accept or not.

The selection of unnecessary cookies is possible through the same tools (banner and site) made available to select the cookies installed by Spina Group.

 

Third-party cookies

The Website may contain links to third-party websites and contents. We can also offer a bigger commitment to users, sharing information with others on social networks such as Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and google+. These contents are added so that we can keep you updated with carefully selected information that may be of interest to you; however, this may imply that these third-party providers save additional cookies on the users’ device, over which we have no control. If you follow a link to any of these third-party websites, before sending personal data to these websites you are advised to consult the websites of those third parties and their privacy policy for more information on their cookies and how to manage them.

Third-party cookies are not essential for browsing, so the user can refuse them through specific browser functions.

This Website uses Google Analytics. This is a web analysis service provided by Google Inc. which uses cookies that are stored on the user's computer to allow statistical analysis in aggregate form relating to the use of the visited website.
