Extended information on the use of cookies
Pursuant to articles 6 and 7 of the EU Regulation 2016/679, as well as on the basis of the requirements of the Provision n.229 of 8 May 2014 issued by the Guarantor for the protection of personal data, on this page the Data Controller of personal data, Proconsul Group Srl , based in via dei Magazzini Generali n ° 10 – 00154 Rome, provides users of the website https://proconsul-group.com with information relating to the cookies used and / or proposed for archiving.
This extended information on the use of cookies (hereinafter also “cookie policy”) must be implemented taking care to have read, in a separate document, the privacy information, pursuant to art. 13 EU Regulation 2016/679, available in the appropriate “privacy” section on the website https://proconsul-group.com, in the footer of the home page.
This cookie policy also has the purpose of describing the elements required by law, describing the characteristics and purposes of the cookies installed by the website https://proconsul-group.com including the updated link to the information and consent forms of the third parties with which the Owner has entered into agreements for the installation of cookies through its website and, finally, recall the possibility for the user to express their options on cookies also through the settings of the browser used.
What are cookies
Cookies are small text files that the sites visited by users send to their devices. These files are stored internally to be retransmitted, later, to the same sites of origin on the occasion, perhaps, of a subsequent visit. Cookies can be stored within the user’s device directly from the website that the latter is visiting (first-party site) or from a different website, so-called “third party”, since within each website, there may be elements (images, maps, sounds, specific links to web pages of other domains, etc.) that may reside and / or lead the user to links present on servers other than those that provide the first party site. Thanks to the storage of cookies, the user can customize the use of some website content by saving his or her preferred settings. For example, it is possible to prepare a cookie for the recognition of the user registered on the site without the same having to proceed, on the occasion of a new visit, with a new authentication.
Taxonomy proposed by the Guarantor
(Ref. Identification of the simplified procedures for the information and the acquisition of consent for the use of cookies – 8 May 2014).
The Guarantor for the protection of personal data in Provision No. 229 of May 8, 2014, proposes a taxonomy that identifies two categories of cookies based on two possible processing purposes:
- Technical cookies
- Profiling cookies.
Technical cookies
These cookies are used to navigate and / or to provide a service to the user. They are not used for other purposes and are normally installed directly by the website owner. Without the use of these cookies, some operations could not be performed or would be more complex and / or less secure, such as home-banking activities (display of the bank statement, wire transfers, payment of bills, etc.), for which cookies, which allow you to make and maintain user identification during the session, are indispensable.
Profiling cookies
These cookies are used to track the user’s browsing on the net and create profiles on tastes, habits, choices, etc. With these cookies, advertising messages can be transmitted to the user device in line with the preferences already expressed by the same user when browsing online.
Analytical cookies
The Guarantor (with reference to Provision number 229 of 8 May 2014), has specified that these cookies can be assimilated to technical cookies only if used for the purpose of optimizing the site, and directly by the owner of the site itself (therefore not by a third party ), which may collect information in aggregate form on the number of users and how they visit the site. Under these conditions, the same rules apply for analytical cookies, in terms of information and consent, provided for technical cookies.

Acquisition of consent to the storage of cookies
To keep track of the acquired consent, the owner of the website uses a special technical cookie, a system that is not particularly invasive and which in turn does not require further consent. In the presence of such “documentation”, it is not necessary for the short information to be repeated on the user’s second visit to the site, without prejudice to the possibility for the latter to refuse consent and / or modify, at any time and in an easy manner, the options, for example through access to the extended information, which must therefore be accessible from every page of the site.
Providing data
With the exception of the technical cookies strictly necessary for normal navigation, the provision of data is left to the will of the interested party who decides to browse the site after having read the brief information contained in the appropriate banner. The interested party can avoid installing them through the special functions available on their browser or by interrupting navigation.
How to disable the storage of cookies through the browser settings
It is possible to deny general consent to the installation of any cookie on the user’s device by selecting the appropriate setting for your browser: browsing without tracking your activities will still be available in all its features. Links that inform the user on how to disable cookies for the most used browsers are provided below:
