Notice on privacy and use of cookies

CCAPP undertakes to protect user privacy as users of our websites, as well as the private nature of any personal information provided to us while using the websites. CCAPP complies with the law on the protection of personal data and conforms to the provisions of the law to guarantee that any data that users provide is treated according to the law. Information is collected automatically by the web server through the use of cookies on the website, as well as through user interaction with online requests and the sending of online forms.
The web server collects general information that does not need any user input, except from access to the website. Such related information is:
• Browser type
• Operating system
• IP address
• Domain name
Cookies and users
Whenever we provide services, we aim towards easiness of use, usefulness and reliability. When these services are provided via the Internet, sometimes this results in a small amount of information being saved on users' devices, such as - for example - a computer or a cell phone. This information includes small files called cookies. These cannot be used for user identification.

What are cookies?

These pieces of information are used to improve the services destined to users, for example:
• to enable a service or recognise users' devices, so that it is not necessary to provide the same pieces of information while users are navigating the website
• recognise information previously provided such as username and password, eliminating the need to type in the same information every time users access a webpage
• measure how users use services in order to facilitate browsing and guarantee enough capacity for a quick service
• analyse anonymous data to help CCAPP to understand how users interact with us and improve the services offered

First-party cookies (cookies configured by CCAPP)

These are cookies configured by the web domain of CCAPP, best known as "first-party" cookies. Some are necessary to make the website work, whereas others provide information that we analyse in order to monitor and improve the website. First-party cookies do not memorise or collect personal information on users, or any characteristic that would make users clearly identifiable by our system. Usually cookies generate a univocal and random number to memorise information related to a user.

Website Usage Monitoring

CCAPP uses Google Analytics to collect information on how users surf our website. We carry out this operation to make sure that the website meets users' needs, as well as to find a way to improve it.
Google Analytics memorises information on the webpages visited, on the time spent on the website, on the location of users and what is selected through clicks. We do not collect or memorise users' personal data (e.g. name or address), therefore such information cannot be used to identify the user. We do not allow Google to use and share our analytic data. Read Google information confidentiality policy for more information.
Cookies from Google Analytics include: _utma, _utmb, _utmc, _utmv, _utmd, _utmz

Data memorised by cookies:

• _utma memorises the number of visits, the time of the first visit, the previous and successive visits for each user
• _utmb and _utmc verify how long a user stays on the website, i.e. the beginning and end of the visit
• _utmz defines the origin of a user (search engine, key words searched, connection)
• _utmv and _utmd define the navigation paths of the user on the website, categorising them in groups
Cookie duration:
• _utma is erased after two years from the last access to the website
• _utmb is erased 30 minutes after the visit, or after 30 minutes of inactivity
• _utmc is erased at the end of a session (that is when the browser is closed)
• _utmz is erased after six months from the last setting
• _utmv (not defined) is erased immediately
• _utmd (not defined) is erased immediately
