Cookie Policy

INFORMATION ON THE USE OF COOKIES

This policy, together with the Privacy Policy, illustrates certain management rules of the website, including with reference to the use of user information. The following applies to this website www.residenceondamare.it and not to other websites that may be consulted by the user via links.

Specifically, this section provides information regarding the cookies active on the site and how they are employed. The Cookie Policy (or “Extended Information”) provided below, regarding the use of cookies on the website, is provided to the user in implementation of the Provision of the Data Protection Authority “Identification of simplified procedures for the information and acquisition of consent for the use of cookies,” or in compliance with further clarifications and guidelines published and issued in this regard by the same Authority and by the competent European Authorities (see Guidelines on cookies and other tracking tools – June 10, 2021, and subsequent updates).

DATA CONTROLLER

The website is controlled and managed by RESIDENCE ONDA MARE DI PANDOLFINI ROBERTO S.A.S. with registered office in VIA ABRUZZI 87 – 48015 CERVIA (RA) – ITALY – VAT ID: 02700870393 – e-mail: Info@Residenceondamare.It, hereinafter also referred to as the “Site Manager.”

WHAT ARE COOKIES

A “cookie” is a small text file installed by some websites on the user’s computer at the time they access a specific site or use certain services offered by the site itself. The purpose is to store and transport information. Cookies are sent from a web server (which is the computer on which the visited site is running) to the user’s browser (Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, etc.) and stored on the user’s device. For more information and to learn more about cookies in general, you can visit the page www.allaboutcookies.org

WHAT THEY ARE USED FOR

In general, cookies can be used for various reasons, for example, to monitor site usage by visitors, improve page navigation, allow personal preferences to be set on the sites being visited, protect user security, and present advertising messages based on the interests of visitors.

The information encoded in cookies may include personal data, such as an IP address, a username, a unique identifier, or an e-mail address, but they can also contain non-personal data, such as language settings or information about the type of device a person is using to browse the site. There may be “active” identifiers, such as cookies, or “passive” observation identifiers, which include fingerprinting—a technique that allows the identification of the device used by the user by collecting all or some of the information relating to the specific configuration of the device adopted by the data subject. Both types allow for the “display of behavioral advertising” through profiling.

TYPES OF COOKIES AND PURPOSES OF USE

In general, and according to common terminology, cookies can have different characteristics that allow them to be classified based on:

  • Duration of stay on the user’s device: in this case, we speak of session/temporary cookies or persistent cookies;

  • Origin: in this case, we speak of first-party cookies (sent to the browser directly by the site being visited) or third-party cookies (sent to the browser by other sites and not by the site being visited);

  • Purpose: in this case, also in line with the regulations of the Data Protection Authority, we speak of technical cookies, analytical identification cookies, or profiling cookies.

Following this classification, a single cookie may have all these characteristics combined; for example, it could be a persistent cookie from a third party used for profiling purposes.

DURATION OF STAY

  • Session/temporary cookies: these are not stored persistently but only for the duration of the browsing session. This means they are automatically deleted from the user’s device once they leave the website and close the browser.

  • Permanent cookies: these are stored on the user’s device until they are deleted by the user or until they reach their pre-set expiration date. They are therefore not automatically deleted when the user leaves the website.

ORIGIN

  • First-party cookies: these are cookies issued by the website currently being visited; the site corresponds to the address typed by the user (the website displayed in the URL window).

  • Third-party cookies: these are cookies issued by a website different from the one visited by the user.

PURPOSE

Technical cookies: these cookies are essential for navigating the site and using some specific features. They can be divided into:

  • Navigation/communication/performance cookies: they guarantee normal navigation and use of the website (allowing, for example, a purchase or authentication to access reserved areas); if these cookies are blocked, the site may no longer function correctly.

  • “Strictly necessary” cookies (functionality/preferences/localization/session state): they allow the storage of information that changes the behavior or appearance of the site (preferred language, text and font sizes, geographical area). If they are blocked, the browsing experience will be less functional but not compromised. These cookies allow the site to remember the choices you make (such as language preference, content of interest, etc.) and to provide the personalized features selected by the user to improve the browsing experience. In some cases, these cookies may also be used to offer online services (e.g., live chat) or to avoid offering services the user has refused in the past.

Analytical cookies: Analysis cookies are used to allow web services to collect information regarding user access, such as the number of visitors to the site, the duration of their stay, and which parts of the site they visit. These cookies can be first-party or third-party.

  • Third-party statistical/analytics cookies without identification power (with IP masking and no cross-referencing with other data held by the third party): in accordance with current legislation, these cookies can be assimilated to technical cookies as they meet the following conditions: adoption of measures that reduce the identifying power of the cookies by masking portions of the IP; the third party refers to the commitment to use these cookies exclusively for the provision of the service, to store them separately, and not to “enrich” or “cross-reference” them with other information in its possession.

  • Third-party statistical/analytics cookies with identification power: these are cookies used to collect information and generate statistics on website use to understand how visitors interact with the site. These cookies are considered to have high identification value when the following conditions are not simultaneously implemented: (i) functions are not adopted to reduce the identifying power of the cookies (for example, by masking significant portions of the IP); (ii) the third party cross-references the information contained in the cookies with other information it already possesses.

Social Widgets and Command Buttons Social Widgets/Command Buttons are those particular “buttons” often represented as graphic icons (e.g., social network icons like Facebook, Instagram, etc.), which allow users browsing the site to perform an action or a command (e.g., “Like”) by interacting with a “click” directly on the social networks. Thanks to the user’s click on Social Widgets/Command Buttons, the user can share the site’s content on their social profile, allowing the publication and display of content from the social network itself (e.g., viewing friends’ photos) on the site’s pages. This site does not share any browsing information or user data with social networks accessible from its pages through widgets or command buttons. The user is invited to check their account settings on the social network to identify any data acquired by external platforms. For more information, please consult the website of the social network(s) to which the user is subscribed.

WHICH CATEGORIES OF COOKIES WE USE AND HOW TO MANAGE OR DELETE COOKIES

This site uses different types of cookies and similar technologies, each of which has a specific function. Users can navigate the site even without using cookies, but the experience may not be optimal. The cookies used and their relative functions are listed below.

Navigation and session cookies

Navigation and session cookies guarantee normal navigation and use of the website (allowing, for example, the display of content on the device by recognizing the language of the country from which the user connects, or making purchases via e-commerce systems). Navigation cookies are technical cookies and are therefore necessary for the site’s operation, improving its quality and the browsing experience.

Analysis and statistics cookies

This site uses analytical/statistical cookies to collect and process statistical analyses on how users navigate the site through computers or mobile applications, the number of pages visited, or the number of clicks made on a page during navigation. The generated information regarding the website is used by the company to produce reports on site usage to improve usability, functionality, interface, and communication. The site processes the results of these analyses anonymously and exclusively for statistical purposes. Google Cookie Information LINK and Analytics Services LINK

Additional third-party requests

Third-party requests are all those requests a site makes to load content from third-party domains. The connection can be a subdomain of the site’s domain or an unrelated domain name. While some third-party requests are necessary for a site’s functionality (think of content loaded from a content delivery network), other requests are used to display advertising, social media buttons, tracking scripts, or other content. This site uses content services provided by Google (fonts.googleapis.com, fonts.gstatic.com, googletagmanager.com, etc.). Furthermore, this site uses device fingerprint systems (analytics, advertising, etc.). The anonymous data collected generally relates to the characteristics of the device used by the user. All information acquired does not necessarily reveal the user’s personal information (e.g., name, location, etc.) but is useful for proposing ads in line with the user’s preferences (m.stripe.network, region1.google-analytics, doubleclick.net, etc.).

For details regarding the cookies used, please refer to the banner present upon opening the site, which provides granular information. The user can always review the status of previously granted consents by clicking on the graphic symbol at the bottom of the page. The service is provided by the provider Iubenda.

Most Internet browsers are initially set to accept cookies automatically. It is possible to change these settings to block cookies or to be warned every time cookies are sent to the navigation device. Furthermore, at the end of each browsing session, it is possible to delete the collected cookies from your device. There are various ways to manage cookies; please refer to the specific instructions of the browser you are using. If different devices are used to view and access the site (e.g., computer, smartphone, tablet, etc.), it is the user’s responsibility to ensure that each browser on each device is adjusted to reflect their expressed cookie preferences.
