Information on the use of cookies

By pressing the “I accept” button in the information bar at the bottom of the screen, the user accepts the use and installation in the browser from which he or she is consulting the https://www.K34.it website, of third-party cookies (explained below), for statistical purposes and the operation of social plug-ins. These tools and technologies are explained below.

The B&B K34 website uses cookies and similar technologies to ensure the proper functioning of procedures and improve the experience of using online applications. This document provides detailed information on the use of cookies and similar technologies, how they are used of the B&B K34 and how to manage them.

Definitions

Cookies are short text fragments (letters and/or numbers) that allow the web server to store information on the client (the browser) to be reused during the same visit to the site (session cookies) or later, even after days (persistent cookies). Cookies are stored, according to the user’s preferences, by the individual browser on the specific device used (computer, tablet, smartphone).

Similar technologies, such as, for example, web beacons, transparent GIFs and all forms of local storage introduced with HTML5, can be used to collect information about user behaviour and the use of services.

In the remainder of this document we will refer to cookies and all similar technologies by simply using the term “cookies”.

Types of cookies

Depending on the characteristics and use of cookies, we can distinguish different categories:

Strictly necessary cookies. These are cookies that are essential for the proper functioning of the site and are used to manage the language used to consult the site. The duration of the cookies is strictly limited to the work session (when the browser is closed, they are deleted).
Analysis and performance cookies. These are cookies used to collect and analyse site traffic and usage in an anonymous way. While these cookies do not identify you, they allow us, for example, to detect whether the same user returns to the site at different times. They also allow us to monitor the system and improve its performance and usability. These cookies can be deactivated without any loss of functionality.
Profiling cookies. These are persistent cookies used to identify (anonymously or otherwise) your preferences and improve your browsing experience.

Third party cookies

When you visit a website you may receive cookies both from the site you visit (“owners”) and from sites operated by other organisations (“third parties”). A notable example is the presence of ‘social plugins’ for Facebook and the like: Twitter, Google+ and LinkedIn. These are parts of the visited page generated directly by these sites and integrated into the page of the host site. The most common use of social plugins is to share content on social networks.

The presence of these plugins involves the transmission of cookies to and from all sites operated by third parties. The management of information collected by “third parties” is governed by the relevant privacy policy, which you should refer to. In the interests of transparency and convenience, the web addresses of the various privacy policies and cookie management methods are listed below.

Facebook (configuration): log in to your account. Privacy section.

Google Analytics

This website also includes certain components transmitted by Google Analytics, a web traffic analysis service provided by Google, Inc. (“Google”). Again, these are third-party cookies collected and managed anonymously to monitor and improve the performance of the host site (performance cookies).

Google Analytics uses “cookies” to collect and analyse anonymously information about website usage behaviour (including the user’s IP address). This information is collected by Google Analytics, which processes the information in order to compile reports for the website operators on website activity. This website does not use (and does not allow third parties to use) Google’s analytics tool to track or collect personally identifiable information. Google does not associate the IP address with any other data held by Google nor does it attempt to link an IP address with a user’s identity. Google may also disclose this information to third parties where required to do so by law, or where such third parties process the information on Google’s behalf.

For further information, please refer to the link below:

https://www.google.it/policies/privacy/partners/

The user can selectively disable the action of Google Analytics by installing the opt-out component provided by Google on his browser. To disable the action of Google Analytics, please refer to the link below:

Duration of cookies

Some cookies (session cookies) remain active only until you close your browser or issue a logout command. Other cookies “survive” when you close your browser and are available on subsequent visits by you.

These cookies are called persistent and their duration is fixed by the server when they are created. In some cases an expiry date is set, in other cases the duration is unlimited. The https://www.k34.it website makes use of persistent cookies.

However, by browsing the pages of the https://k34.it website you may interact with sites managed by third parties who may create or modify persistent and profiling cookies.

Managing cookies

Users can decide whether or not to accept cookies by using their browser settings.

Attention: the total or partial disabling of technical cookies may compromise the use of the functions of the site reserved for registered users. On the contrary, the usability of public content is possible even if cookies are completely disabled.

Disabling third-party cookies does not affect navigability in any way.

The setting can be defined specifically for different websites and web applications. Moreover, the best browsers allow you to define different settings for ‘proprietary’ and ‘third-party’ cookies.

For example, in Firefox, through the menu Tools->Options->Privacy, you can access a control panel where you can define whether or not to accept the different types of cookies and proceed to their removal.

Protection of personal data

The data sent through the forms on the website are processed for the sole purpose of fulfilling the requests associated with them, therefore the data controller, i.e. k34 with registered office in Via Keplero, 34 Milan in the person of its legal representative, and possibly its designated operators, will process the personal information for the sole purpose of fulfilling the requests sent. No data will be stored beyond the necessary operations and if storage is deemed necessary K34 has backup systems and perimeter security (Firewall) to prevent the data from being stolen in any way and come into possession of authorized persons. K34 will not transfer to third parties the data sent through the domain k34.it, if this should be essential for the type of request, for example to allow a partner of k34.it to contact a client and offer a service requested but not provided by K34 will be required explicit consent.

Updating of the information

K34 will keep this policy constantly updated, indicating the date on which the policy was updated.
