The cookie policy is provided only for the Site and the Platform, not for other sites accessible by the User via links available through swiftio.io. For further information please check our Privacy Policy.

Cookies are small fragments of text, usually consisting of letters and/or numbers, that are sent by the website visited and stored by the software (such as a web browser) installed on the device used by the user for browsing. The cookies are then transmitted back to the aforementioned website on the user's next visit.

Cookies make it possible to store information regarding visits made by a user to a website and represent a technology very useful, because for example they enable websites to function, making them more efficient, and provide useful information to site operators.

Without cookies, or other assimilated technologies, websites would have no way to "remember" information about visitors, such as how many items the user has placed in their shopping cart or whether or not they have been logged in.

Cookies can be classified according to: - duration: session or persistent cookies; - origin: first-party or third-party cookies; - purpose: technical, analytical or profiling cookies.

Cookies that expire at the end of a browser session (normally when a user closes their browser) are called session cookies and are useful, for example, to store the purchase order of a user or for security purposes, such as when logging into one's Internet banking or webmail account. Cookies that, on the other hand, are stored for a longer period of time (between sessions) are called persistent cookies and are useful, for example, to remember the user preferences or to propose targeted advertising.

The definition of first-party or third-party refers to the website or the domain that installs the cookie. First-party cookies are installed directly by the website the user is visiting, while third-party cookies are installed by a domain different from the one the user is visiting, such as in the case where the website incorporates elements from other sites, such as images, social media plugins, or advertisements.

It should be specified that the purposes usually fulfilled by a cookie can also be accomplished through other assimilated technologies, including the use of certain features that enable the identification of devices so that visits to a website can be analyzed. This policy, in fact, applies to any technology that stores or accesses information on the user's device. They could fall into this category, for example, HTML5 local storage, Local Shared Objects (also called flash cookies) and fingerprinting techniques. In particular, device fingerprinting is a technique that involves combining a set of information in order to identify a particular device uniquely. Examples of the information that device fingerprinting can detect, associate with or infer include: - data derived from the configuration of a device; - data inferred from the use of particular network protocols; - JavaScript; - HTTP header information; clock information; - fonts installed; - plugins installed in the browser.

Henceforth when referring to cookies, this definition will also be considered to include other assimilated technologies.

Based on the purpose, the cookies installed on this site are distinguished into technical cookies, analytical cookies and profiling cookies.

Technical cookies are necessary for the operation of the website because they enable functions to facilitate the user's navigation, who for example will be able to access their profile without having to log in each time or will be able to select the language with which they wish to navigate the site without having to set it each time.

Technical cookies are considered strictly necessary because storing the information is essential to provide a service requested by the user. Therefore, technical cookies cannot be disabled and their installation does not require the prior users' consent (pursuant to Article 122 of the Privacy Code).

Analytical cookies, which can be first- or third-party, are installed to collect information about the use of the website. In particular, they are useful to statistically analyze accesses or visits to the site itself and to enable the owner to improve its structure, navigation logic and content. The information collected (including the IP, masked) is used to perform statistical analysis in order to improve the use of the site and possibly to make the content more interesting and relevant to the user's wishes.

First-party analytical cookies, i.e., directly made and used by the company, are assimilated, pursuant to the Privacy Guarantor's Guidelines on cookies of 2015 and ss.mm.ii, to technical cookies and as such are not subject to the obligations and fulfillments provided by the regulations in terms of requesting consent.

With regard to third-party analytical cookies, used for statistical purposes only, for the same will be adopted appropriate tools to reduce the identifying power towards the user (for example, by masking significant portions of the IP address, or the anonymization of the IP); however, the use of such cookies will be subject to contractual constraints between the site and third parties in which express reference is made to the third party's commitment either to use them exclusively for the provision of the service, to store them separately and not to "enrich" or "cross-reference" them with other information they have.

With regard to the possible use of Google Analytics for the collection of analytical cookies, it should be noted that the Company, in adherence to the provisions of the Belgian Privacy Guarantor, provides for the use of Google Analytics 4 software, providing in any case the anonymization of IP addresses.

Profiling cookies, which can be first-party or third-party cookies, serve to track the user's browsing, analyze their behavior for marketing purposes and create profiles regarding his tastes, habits, choices, etc. In this way it is possible, for example, to transmit targeted advertising messages in relation to the user's interests and in line with the preferences manifested by the user when browsing online. These cookies also include social cookies.

Such cookies can only be installed on the user's terminal if the user has given his or her consent.

It is possible for the user to choose individual categories of cookies to be installed.

When first accessing any page of the Site, there is present a banner that contains: - a short policy statement; - a button by which the user can accept all cookies; - a button by which the user rejects the installation of the cookies, except for the technical ones; - a button ("more options") that allows access to a dashboard through which the user can select the individual types of cookies to be installed.

Consent to the use of cookies is recorded with a special technical cookie.

The user has other ways to manage the use of cookies, as well as the ability to review at any time the preferences and consents previously expressed.

The user will have the opportunity to take action at any time to modify or revoke any consents that may have been given through the appropriate link "Cookie Center", inserted in the footer of each page of the site.

Selecting that link will reopen the cookie banner dashboard by means of which the user can express their updated preferences.

In any case, users can express their preferences on the cookies also through the settings of the browser used. By default almost all web browsers are set to automatically accept cookies, but users can change the default configuration through the settings of the browser used, which allow them to delete/remove all or some cookies or block cookies from being sent or restrict it to certain sites.

Disabling/blocking cookies or deleting them may affect the optimal use of certain areas of the site or prevent certain functionalities, as well as affect the functioning of the services of the third parties.
