- check that the services offered are operating correctly
The legal basis for the processing of your data for the purposes referred to in points 1, 2 and 3 is the fulfilment of your request, pursuant to Article 6, first comma, subsection b) of the GDPR; if you were to refuse to contribute these data, you would be unable to use the Site.
Browsing data are stored for the times specified in the cookie policy available on the site.
2.2. RESPONSE TO REQUEST FOR INFORMATION

If you decide to make use of this service, the Data Controller will process your personal data only in order to respond to your request for information.
The legal basis for the processing of your data for this purpose is the fulfilment of your request, pursuant to article 6, first comma, subsection b) of the GDPR.
The contribution of your personal data for the above purpose is optional. However, if you decide not to contribute your personal data, you will be unable to obtain the information you need.
For this purpose, the personal data contributed through the website will be stored for the time necessary for the fulfilment of the request.
2.3. DISPATCH OF NEWSLETTERS
By compiling the form in the specific "newsletter" section on the Website, or sections, you may contribute your ordinary personal data (name, surname, email address, country and profession) in order to subscribe to the newsletter and be regularly updated with news of initiatives, activities and projects organised by Emilceramica.
The newsletter will be sent to the email address which you provided, in order to fulfil your request.
The contribution of your personal data for the above purposes is optional. However, in the event of refusal to contribute the data, the Data Controller will be unable to fulfil your request to subscribe to the newsletter or to keep you up to date with the latest news from Emilceramica.
The legal basis for the processing of your data for this purpose is the fulfilment of your request, pursuant to Article 6, first comma, point b) of the GDPR; therefore, your consent is not necessary to authorise the processing. However, on receipt of any email, you may easily object to the sending of further communications from Emilceramica by using the "Unsubscribe" link provided in all e-marketing communications, or by contacting the Data Controller at the addresses provided in point 1 above.
Your personal data will be processed until you decide to cancel your subscription to the Newsletter service.
2.4. MARKETING PURPOSES
Further to submission of requests for information in the Contacts sector for information purposes (point 2.2), your subscription to the newsletter (point 2.3), or on the site pages containing a form for requesting specific information, the Data Controller assumes that you are potentially interested in being informed about Emilceramica’s activities, initiatives and products.
Therefore, given these circumstances, the Data Controller intends to use your personal data (name, surname, telephone number and email address) to send you marketing communications referring to Emilceramica’s initiatives and products, and invitations to events it has organised. These communications may be sent by traditional means (such as telephone calls) and/or by automated means (such as email, telefax, prerecorded telephone calls, SMS, MMS, instant messaging, etc.).

However, on receipt of any email, you may easily object to the sending of further communications by Emilceramica, using the "Unsubscribe" link in all e-marketing communications, or by contacting the Data Controller at the addresses provided in point 1 above.
Your personal data will be processed for this marketing purpose until you decide to withdraw your consent or to object to the processing, by contacting the Data Controller using the contacts provided in point 1 of this Privacy Policy Statement.
Participation in marketing initiatives is optional and your refusal will have no consequences with regard to the other purposes for which data are processed, as referred to in this Privacy Policy Statement, but it will prevent Emilceramica from keeping you up to date with any further initiatives or events and about its projects and/or products.
2.5. PROFILING
Emilceramica also intends to analyse your consumption habits and choices in order to send you personalised marketing communications. To engage in profiling, Emilceramica requires your specific consent, to be given by ticking the box offered to you when your data are contributed.
Consent to profiling is optional and your refusal will have no consequence with regard to the performances of the other activities you have requested, but it will prevent the Data Controller from identifying the products, services and programmes which might interest you.
Profiling will be performed on your personal data relating to your preferences, consumption habits or purchases contributed or deduced over a one-year period, and will take place until you decide to withdraw your consent or to object to the profiling, by contacting the Data Controller using the contacts provided in point 1 of this Privacy Policy Statement.

2. WHAT COOKIES ARE AND WHAT THEY ARE FOR
Cookies are small strings of text that the sites the user visits send to his terminal (normally the browser), where they are stored to be retransmitted to the same sites the next time the same user visits them. When the user is browsing the Website, his terminal may also receive cookies sent by other sites or web servers (“third parties”), which may carry materials (such as images, maps, sounds, specific links to pages in other domains, etc.) present on the Website he is visiting.
Cookies are used for a variety of purposes: IT authentication; session monitoring; the storage of data on specific configurations relating to users who access the server; storage of preferences, etc.
In order to regulate these devices correctly, it is necessary to distinguish between the various types of cookies.
3. TYPES OF COOKIES
It is possible to distinguish between various types of cookies on the basis: (A.) of the party which installs the cookies; (B.) of the duration of the processing; (C.) of the purpose of the processing.
- Depending on the party which installs the cookies on the user’s terminal, a distinction is made between: (a) “first-party cookies", installed directly by the manager of the website visited by the user; and (b) “third-party cookies” installed by the manager of another website, which installs the cookies via the first. This Website only uses temporary or permanent third-party cookies in anonymous formats,for the sole purpose of enabling the Data Controller to utilise web analyticsservices supplied by third parties.
- On the basis of the duration of the processing, there is a distinction between: (a) “session cookies”, which are stored temporarily during the browsing session and automatically erased from the user’s terminal after the browser is shut down; and (b) “persistent cookies”,which persist on the user’s terminal until a set expiry date (for example, until the end of the year) or until they are erased.
- With regard to the type of processing, the distinctions between: (a) “technical cookies”,used for the sole purpose of enabling the user to browseand utilise the website correctly (e.g. normal display or scrolling of pages,etc.); and (b) “profiling cookies",which create profiles relating to the user, and are used to send targeted advertising messages in line with the preferences shown by the user when browsing the Internet. Unlike technical cookies, profiling cookies are not necessary for the correct operation of the Website and they may not be used without the user’s consent.
The table below summarises the different types of technical cookies

However, your prior consent is necessary for the processing of your personal data by means of:
(i) profiling cookies; and
(ii) third-party analytical cookies, when the use of these cookies is not conditional on the adoption of tools to reduce the identifying capacity of the cookies used, or the third party has not given a contractual undertaking to use these cookies solely for the provision of services, and to store them separately, without “enriching” them or “cross-matching” them with other data concerning the user at its disposal.
