Navigation data

The computer systems and the technical and software procedures underlying the functioning of this website acquire, during their normal operation, some personal data whose transmission is implicit in the functioning mechanisms and protocols in use on the Internet.
Every time the user accesses this site and every time he calls up or requests content, the access data is stored in our systems and potentially also by the data controller and the data processors, in the form of tabular data files or linear (within specific log files), structured and/or unstructured.

These data do not provide personal data of the site user but only data of a technical/IT nature, which are used anonymously and in aggregate form. These data may be used by the Data Controller for the sole purpose of obtaining anonymous statistical information on the use of the site in order to identify the pages preferred by users and therefore provide increasingly appropriate content and to check its correct functioning. At the request of the competent authorities, the data could be used to ascertain responsibility in the event of hypothetical computer crimes against the site or its users.

Cookie Policy

Cookies are small text files that the sites visited send to the user's computer (usually to the browser), where they are stored before being re-transmitted to the same sites on the next visit by the same user.

Depending on their duration, they are divided into session cookies (that is, temporary cookies that are automatically deleted from the terminal at the end of the browsing session by closing the browser) and persistent cookies (that is, those that remain stored on the terminal until they expire or are canceled by the user).

Cookies are used to provide the service requested by the user; more precisely, they allow you to enable and optimize the functioning of the website, perform computer authentication and prevent abuse, monitor sessions, improve the user's browsing experience, for example by keeping the connection to restricted areas active while browsing through the site's pages without the need to re-enter User-Id and password and memorizing specific information concerning the users themselves (including preferences, the type of browser and computer used).

The aforementioned cookies are called "technical" (the user's consent is not required for their use), as without them some of the aforementioned operations could not be performed or would be more complex and/or less secure.

If cookies are used to analyze behavior and send personalized promo-advertising messages, they are called "profiling" and the user's consent is required.

This Site may use session cookies and persistent cookies.
The types of cookies directly generated by this site are:

technical cookies, used to make purchases of online services/products and the related payments and to authenticate and manage a browsing session, and for security purposes.

third-party cookies
This site allows the transmission of third-party cookies in particular Google Analytics provided by the company Google Inc.: http://www.google.com/intl/it/policies/privacy/

Cookies can be managed by the user through his browser

Browser settings
The user can manage their cookie preferences through the functions present in common browsers (Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Google Crome, Apple Safari), which allow you to delete / remove cookies (all or some) or change the settings of the browser itself in order to block the sending of cookies or to limit it to specific sites.

Disabling cookies does not in itself preclude the use of the services of the Website; however, if all cookies are deleted/blocked, including technical ones, some operations could not be performed or would be more complex and/or less secure.

Data provided voluntarily by the user

If users send their personal data to access certain services, or to make requests by e-mail, this involves the acquisition of the sender's address and/or any other personal data that will be used exclusively to respond to the request, or for the provision of the service.

The personal data provided by users will be communicated to third parties only if the communication is necessary to comply with the requests of the users themselves.

The treatment is carried out through IT and telematic tools and/or manually (e.g. on paper) for the time strictly necessary to achieve the purposes for which the data were collected and in any case, in compliance with the current regulatory provisions on the matter.

Apart from that specified for navigation data, users are free to provide their personal data. Failure to provide them can only make it impossible to obtain what has been requested.

The Data Controller is A.BIO.MED. Società Cooperativa Agricola.

Users have the right to access data concerning them at any time and to exercise other rights (request the origin of the data, correction, updating or integration of inaccurate or incomplete data, or the cancellation or block for those treated in violation of the law, or even oppose their use for legitimate reasons) provided for in Article 7 of the Privacy Code, by contacting A.BIO.MED. via email info@abiomed.it or by ordinary mail
