Cookie Policy

1. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files that websites store on the user's device while browsing. They allow the site to function correctly, to remember user preferences between visits and — in some cases — to collect statistical or advertising information.

The regulations (Art. 122 of the Italian Privacy Code, transposing the ePrivacy directive, and EU Regulation 2016/679 "GDPR") distinguish cookies into two main categories: technical, necessary for the operation of the site or for a service explicitly requested by the user; and profiling, which track the user for advertising or marketing purposes. Only the latter require prior consent via banner.

2. Cookies used by this site

This site only uses technical cookies set by the infrastructure that hosts it and protects it from abuse. There are no profiling cookies, behavioural advertising, remarketing, social plugins with tracking or non-anonymised analytics.

Below is the complete list of cookies that may be set during navigation:

• __cf_bm — Technical Cloudflare cookie used to distinguish human traffic from automated traffic (bot management). It does not contain personally identifying information, does not track the user's navigation across different sites and is considered strictly necessary. Duration: 30 minutes.

• cf_clearance — Technical/security cookie set by Cloudflare when the user passes an anti-abuse check (e.g. a Turnstile challenge). Avoids re-presenting the verification on every request. Duration: up to 30 days.

• lang — Technical/functional cookie set by this site when the user manually selects a language from the switcher. Contains only the chosen language code (it, en, fr, de) and is used to remember the preference on subsequent visits. It does not track navigation and is not shared with third parties. Duration: 1 year. Exempt from prior consent under Art. 122 of the Italian Privacy Code as strictly necessary to provide a service requested by the user.

3. Cloudflare Turnstile in the contact form

The contact form is protected by Cloudflare Turnstile, an anti-bot solution designed as a privacy-friendly alternative to traditional CAPTCHAs. Cloudflare states that Turnstile does not use tracking cookies for advertising purposes, does not display ads and does not monetise the data collected.

The widget may automatically collect some technical information (IP address, user agent, browser signals) for the sole purpose of distinguishing real users from automated software. Details on the processing of this data are provided in the Privacy Policy in the dedicated section.

4. Similar technologies (sessionStorage)

The site uses the browser's session storage (sessionStorage) for two technical items only: the theme preference (light/dark) chosen by the user and a flag that avoids replaying the logo animation on every page change. These are not cookies, the information is not sent to any external server and cannot be used to track the user. Unlike localStorage, session storage is cleared automatically by the browser when the tab is closed.

This site uses no profiling cookies and therefore shows no consent banner: no cookie-related choice by the user is stored.

5. Third-party cookies

This site does not embed cookies set directly by third parties for profiling or advertising purposes (Google Ads, Facebook Pixel, Google Analytics with tracking, remarketing or similar).

The only cookies listed above come from Cloudflare, the provider of distribution and protection services for the web infrastructure, appointed as data processor pursuant to Art. 28 GDPR.

The site's static resources, web fonts included, are served directly from the ediliziagf.com domain: browsing generates no requests to third-party CDNs or services, so the user's IP address is not automatically disclosed to anyone other than Cloudflare.

6. How to manage or disable cookies

Since technical cookies are necessary for the proper functioning of the site, disabling them may degrade some functionality — in particular the contact form submission, which depends on the anti-bot system.

It is however possible to delete or block cookies by acting directly on your browser settings. Each browser provides specific instructions in its official guides:

• Chrome: support.google.com/chrome/answer/95647

• Firefox: support.mozilla.org/kb/enhanced-tracking-protection-firefox-desktop

• Safari: support.apple.com/guide/safari/manage-cookies-sfri11471

• Edge: support.microsoft.com/microsoft-edge

7. References and Privacy Policy

The legal basis, rights of the data subject, retention periods and all other information required by Articles 13 and 14 of the GDPR are described in detail in the Privacy Policy, reachable from the footer of this site.

8. Changes to this Cookie Policy

The controller reserves the right to update, integrate or modify this Cookie Policy at any time, providing notice of changes within this page. Users are invited to consult it periodically.

If non-technical cookies were to be introduced in the future (for example tracking analytics, profiling tools or behavioural advertising), this Cookie Policy will be updated accordingly and a banner for consent management will be presented to the user before the installation of such cookies, in compliance with Art. 122 of the Italian Privacy Code and the guidelines of the Italian Data Protection Authority.
