Cookie Policy
Cookies are small text files that are installed by a website in the temporary memory of the browser you use (and therefore in the device from which you connect to the Platform, such as PCs, tablets, mobile phones, etc.) and which record some information relating to your browsing activity. Such data, if the cookies are not disabled, are communicated to the site that installed them every time you visit that site again. Cookies therefore allow you to (temporarily) record some information relating to your preferences, but at the same time allow you to make navigation easier and more user friendly.
WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF COOKIES?
Depending on the length of their validity, cookies are divided into:
• session cookies: they are short-term cookies which are automatically deleted when you quit your browser;
• persistent cookies: they are long-term cookies stored on your device for a certain period of time (e.g. to allow you to easily authenticate yourself on the Platform, etc.)
and depending on who creates and processes the cookies:
• first-party cookies: created and directly managed by the data controller;
• third-party cookies: created and managed by third-parties and over which the data controller has no say.

WHICH COOKIES DO WE INSTALL?
Pursuant to the GDPR, the company Gunter S.r.l., with registered office in Sassuolo (MO), 32 Via Regina Pacis, C.F. and VAT number 03964530368, e-Mail: admin@laversionedigunter.com, PEC: guntersrl@pec.it (also referred to as "Data Controller"), will install on your device:
1. TECHNICAL COOKIES: technical cookies (session and persistent), or files that allow the correct and easy use of the Platform:
1. first-party, technical and essential cookies: they allow users to browse the Platform - without them turned on there could be the possibility that the Platform may not work properly. For the installation of these type of cookies, current legislation does not require the user’s prior consent, other than to indicate their use in the cookie policy;
2. first-party, technical and persistent cookies: they facilitate navigation on the Platform and do not require the need to repeat the permission request (the so-called pop-up banner) which asks for the consent of the user to install cookies on the device, as consent had been given earlier.
3. third-party, anonymous, persistent analytics cookies: they allow the collection of aggregate and anonymous data on the use of the Platform. The final numbers of the IP address are withheld when information is collected by such cookies.
2. PROFILING COOKIES: only following the prior consent of the user, we install certain types of persistent profiling cookies created by third parties (for example some cookies may be present in images, maps, videos, sounds, links to pages external to the Platform, etc.), which have the task of memorizing the user’s profile to enable the sending of targeted advertising messages on preferences expressed while browsing the Platform:
1. Third-party profiling cookies and related to other services (session and persistent): some pages of the Platform are characterized by the presence of plugins that could allow a third party to install profiling cookies on the user’s device. Privacy information and information on how to delete these cookies can be found at the following links:

2. Third-party profiling cookies and related to statistical services (session and persistent): these cookies facilitate the collection of data and help to evaluate and make any changes relating to the possibility of using the information and services. These cookies allow users to know:
- the number of visitors of the Platform;
- the average time spent on the Platform;
- the channels from which the Platform is accessed, the most visited sections, etc.
ANONYMOUS STATISTICAL COOKIES
To carry out these operations we use the Google Analytics service - a web analytics service, provided by Google. This system will install cookies on the users’ device and generates information on their use of the Platform that is transmitted and stored by Google (the servers where they are stored may be in the United States). Google uses this information to:
• evaluate the use of the Platform;
• prepare reports on the users’ business;
• to provide other services relating to the activity of the Platform and the use of the internet.
Google may also transfer this information to third parties if required to by law, or in the case of third parties who process this information on their behalf.
Google does not associate the user’s IP address with any other data that Google owns (we have in fact deactivated all the sharing functions of users’ personal data, except for the 'Benchmarking' function which processes aggregate and anonymous data - https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/1011397?hl=it) and part of the user’s IP address is concealed.

HOW LONG ARE COOKIES STORED ON A DEVICE?
The duration of the cookies that are installed on your device depends on their nature:
