What is a cookie?

A cookie is a small text file, located in browser directories. They are created when a user’s browser loads a particular website; the website sends information to the browser which then creates a text file. Every time the user return to the same website, the browser retrieves and sends this file to the website’s server. Cookies can be either first-party cookie, placed by the website that is being loaded or third-party cookie created also by websites that run ads, widgets or other elements on the page that is being loaded.

 

 

What is the purpose of the cookies?

Cookies can be used to help authenticate users who log in a secure area of the website, by storing login information thus allowing the user to leave the website and re-enter without having to fill the authentication form again.

Session cookies are also used by the server to store information about user page activities and act as a sort of bookmark within the website. They are temporary files, erased when you close the browser; when a user re-open the browser and go back to the site that created the cookie, the website will not recognise him. For more information on session cookies, check http://www.allaboutcookies.org/cookies/session-cookies-used-for.html

Persistent or tracking cookies are used to store user preferences and enable a website to remember them on subsequent visits. Authentication cookies or language selection cookies are examples of persistent cookies. How long a persistent cookie remain on the browser depends on how long the visited website has programmed it to last. For more information on persistent cookies, check http://www.allaboutcookies.org/cookies/persistent-cookies-used-for.html

Google Analytics

This website uses Google analytics, a web analytics service operated by Google, that employs cookies; the information generated by these cookies is transferred to a Google server in the US, where it is stored for 14 months (according to the actual option chosen– see Data_Retention for more information).

Google operates as data processor under GDPR because it collects and processes data; FINSEC Project Data Protection Officers (and in particular Zanasi Alessandro Srl. DPO, since they manage the website) are data controllers and retains full rights over the collection, access, retention and deletion of their data at any time.

The IP anonymisation option is active on our website; this feature sets the last octet of IPv4 user IP addresses and the last 80 bits of IPv6 addresses to zeros in memory shortly after being sent to the Analytics Collection Network. Thus, the full IP address is never written to disk.

• users’ demographics data: age and gender;

• users’ location data: language and location;
