Cookie Policy

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that the websites visited by users send to their devices, where they are stored and then sent back to the same websites on later visits. Cookies have different purposes and features, and they can be used both by the owner of the website being visited and by third parties. Other tools that read or store information on the device (for example local storage, pixels and device identifiers) are treated in the same way as cookies. See below for information about the cookies used on this website, and about how to manage your preferences.

This notice is provided pursuant to arts. 13 and 14 of EU Regulation 2016/679 (GDPR), art. 122 of Italian Legislative Decree 196/2003 (Privacy Code) and the “Guidelines on cookies and other tracking tools” of the Italian Data Protection Authority (Garante per la protezione dei dati personali) of 10 June 2021.

Data controller

The data controller is Bantoa S.r.l., Via Belluno 22/A - 37133 Verona, Italy, who can be contacted at [email protected]. The use of cookies by Bantoa S.r.l. is part of its Privacy Policy, which contains all the information required by art. 13 GDPR.

Technical cookies which do not require consent

These are the cookies strictly necessary for the website to work and to provide the service requested by the user. They are installed automatically when you access the website and, pursuant to art. 122 of the Privacy Code, they do not require consent. They are all first-party cookies, i.e. installed by Bantoa.

Website functioning and account access

Preferences and features

First-party visit measurement

Bantoa uses some first-party cookies to know which campaign or source a visit comes from (e.g. utm_source, utm_medium, utm_campaign, gclid, msclkid, write_tmp_campaign_session, trigger_test_log). This information is used only by Bantoa, in aggregated form, to measure the effectiveness of its own campaigns, and it is not combined with other data to profile the user. Duration: from the session up to 10 days.

Cookies that require consent

All cookies other than the technical cookies listed above (third-party statistical cookies, profiling and advertising cookies) are installed or activated only after the user has given consent.

On your first visit a banner is shown, managed through Google’s IAB TCF certified consent management platform, which allows you to:

• accept all cookies;
• choose selectively the purposes and providers you consent to, or refuse consent, through “Manage options”;
• close the banner without giving consent: in this case only technical cookies are installed.

Continuing to browse or scrolling the page do not amount to consent. Your choice is stored and the banner is not shown again for at least 6 months, unless the processing conditions or the providers used change significantly.

You can change or withdraw the consent already given at any time, fully or partly, with the button below or with the padlock icon in the website header. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before it.

Third-party cookies

Subject to consent, this website also installs cookies managed by third parties, who process them as independent controllers or as processors as described in their privacy notices. See below the purpose of each one and the link to its privacy notice.

Google services use Consent Mode: without consent, Google tags do not install statistical or advertising cookies.

Social login and form protection

If you choose to log in with Google, Apple or Facebook, the provider may install its own cookies in the login window (for example g_state for Google login), according to its privacy notice (Google, Apple, Facebook). The contact form is protected by Google reCAPTCHA to prevent abuse and spam (privacy notice).

Share buttons

The buttons to share content on social networks (for example Facebook and Pinterest) are simple links: they do not install cookies until you use them. Once the social network is opened, its own privacy settings apply.

Transfer of data outside the European Union

Some third-party providers (Google, Meta) belong to groups based in the United States, and the data collected through their cookies may be transferred to the USA. Such transfers take place on the basis of the European Commission adequacy decision of 10 July 2023 (EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework), to which these providers adhere, and in any case on the basis of the standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission.

Bantoa APP

When you use the Bantoa APP, the website is displayed inside the APP and the same rules described on this page apply. The APP also stores some technical information on the device (for example the push notification identifier and the permission status) needed to provide the service. On iOS, advertising tracking tools are activated only if you also give consent through Apple’s system prompt (App Tracking Transparency). You can manage notifications and permissions at any time from your device settings.
