COOKIE MANAGEMENT
On this website, Tenova S.p.A. uses different types of cookies to guarantee the website’s core functionalities, improve user experience, and develop aggregated statistics on the data collected. Cookies are little text files that your internet browser automatically transmits to our webserver when accessing our website such as the used operating system, the internet browser, the previously used website (referrer URL), the time and the IP address. These data are only collected and saved in an anonymized format that does not allow any conclusion to you as a person; cookies used by the Company are technical and analytical cookies.
Technical cookies are necessary to navigate the website and to use certain functions (e.g. viewing the videos embedded in our website).
Analytical cookies are used for statistical analysis of site accesses in aggregated form, excluding any kind of remarketing nor other commercial actions.
For this specific type of cookies, the Company decided to avoid the use of third-party cookies, preferring to select a tool called Piwik PRO, an analytics suite with a focus on user privacy and data security, which allows the Company to install exclusively first-party analytical cookies for statistical purposes.
Additionally, the Company has opted for an anonymization technique of users’ IP addresses (level 2 masked, as illustrated here), whose activation will delete the main part of the technical information and, therefore, will never allows the Company to identify users. This way, IP address cannot be traced nor reconstructed in any way by the Company; moreover, no combination with other data resources will be made.
The complete list of installed cookies is available in the below table and at this link (specifically for cookies created by Piwik PRO).
