Cookie Policy of www.borgodicastelvecchio.com

This document contains information about the technologies that allow this Website to achieve the purposes described below. These technologies enable the Owner to collect and store information (for example through the use of Cookies) or to use resources (for example by running a script) on the User's device when the User interacts with this Website.

For simplicity, these technologies are synthetically defined as "Tracking Tools" in this document unless there is a reason to differentiate. For example, although Cookies can be used in both web and mobile browsers, it would be out of place to talk about Cookies in the context of mobile applications since they are Tracking Tools that require a browser's presence. For this reason, within this document, the term "Cookie" is used only to specifically refer to that particular type of Tracking Tool.

Some of the purposes for which Tracking Tools are used may also, depending on the applicable law, require the User's consent. If consent is given, it can be freely revoked at any time by following the instructions provided in this document.

This Website uses Tracking Tools managed directly by the Owner (commonly referred to as "first-party" Tracking Tools) and Tracking Tools that enable services provided by third parties (commonly referred to as "third-party" Tracking Tools). Unless otherwise specified in this document, such third parties have access to their respective Tracking Tools. The duration and expiration of Cookies and other similar Tracking Tools may vary depending on what is set by the Owner or each third-party provider. Some of them expire at the end of the User's browsing session. In addition to what is specified in the description of each of the categories below, Users can get more detailed and up-to-date information on the duration, as well as any other relevant information - such as the presence of other Tracking Tools - in the privacy policies of their respective third-party providers (via the links made available) or by contacting the Owner.
