Cookies are small files that are sent to the browser in use and stored on the device of the user visiting a website such as https://www.fibermech.com. Cookies allow an efficient operation of the Site and improve its performance. In addition, they provide information to the Data Controller of the Site for statistical or advertising purposes, mainly to customize user's browsing experience by storing user's preferences (for example, language set or to recognize the user on the next visit).
Cookies can be classified according to their origin, whether first-party or third-party; their duration, session or persistent; and finally, their purpose, i.e. technical or profiling.
Fibermech, as Data Controller, in compliance with national and European personal data protection laws, informs users that the Website uses so-called "technical" cookies, i.e. cookies that allow the navigation of the Website and its proper functioning. In case of removal of technical cookies through the browser settings, navigation within the Site may not be possible, fully or partly.
In particular, the Data Controller uses "first-party" technical cookies (i.e. set up and managed by Fibermech) and "third party" technical cookies (i.e. set up and managed by third parties according to its privacy policies and not under Fibermech's control), each of which has a specific function, as specified below:
Navigation cookies are first-party technical cookies and are necessary for the operation of the Site: from the first access they allow the Site to function properly and allow the user to view content on its device by recognizing the language and the country from which the user chooses to connect.
Functional cookies are first-party technical cookies that allow the user, on the basis of an express consent, to be recognized on subsequent accesses, so that he/she does not have to enter his/her data on each visit. Functional cookies are not essential to the operation of the Site, but they enhance user’s browsing experience.
Fibermech uses technical (statistical) cookies from Google Analytics. These cookies collect and transmit information in an anonymous manner about user’s browsing behavior (for example, frequently visited pages, recurring patterns of navigation), helping Fibermech to understand any difficulties encountered in the use. These are third-party cookies and link the Site to other websites (in this case to Google Analytics tool) that have their own privacy policy (available at the following link: www.google.com/intl/it/policies/privacy/partners/). These privacy policies may be different from that adopted by the Site www.fibermech.com, which therefore is not responsible for third-party sites.
In particular, the Site uses the following analytical cookies:

Most browsers are configured to accept, manage, or possibly disable cookies through their settings. Please note, however, that disabling navigation or functional cookies may result in the unsatisfactory functioning of the Site and/or limit the service we offer.
The following is what is indicated by Data Protection Authority: http://www.garanteprivacy.it/cookie regarding some possible options to surf without cookies:
Third-party cookies are generally not essential for browsing, so the user can refuse them by default, through appropriate functions of its browser.
The "Do Not Track" option is present in most of the latest generation of browsers. Websites designed to comply with this option, when activated, should automatically stop collecting some of your browsing data. As mentioned, however, not all websites are set up to respect this (discretionary) option.
With this function the user can navigate without leaving any trace of navigation data in the browser. The sites will not remember the user, the pages visited will not be stored in history and new cookies will be deleted.
However, anonymous browsing does not guarantee anonymity on the Internet, because it only serves to keep your browsing data out of your browser, while your browsing data will continue to be available to website operators and connectivity providers.
There are special functions to do this in all browsers. However, it should be remembered that new cookies are downloaded every time you connect to the Internet, so you should delete them periodically. Some browsers offer automated systems for the periodic deletion of cookies.
Each browser has different procedures for managing cookies; below are links to specific instructions for the most popular ones:
However, please be advised that disabling this may result in the inability to use certain parts of the Site.
