This policy, pursuant to Article 13 of Legislative Decree 196/2003 (hereinafter, the "Privacy Code"), describes how this website, owned by Toys Hunter, manages the processing of personal data of users who consult it, also in accordance with the requirements of the Provision of the Privacy Guarantor of 08.05.2014 "Identification of simplified procedures for the information and acquisition of consent for the use of cookies" (hereinafter, the "Provision").
This policy is provided only for the aforementioned website and not for other websites or sections/pages/spaces owned by third parties – which may be consulted by the user through specific links present within it.
1. Type of data processed and purpose of processing
1.1. Navigation data
The computer systems and applications dedicated to the operation of this website acquire, during their normal operation, certain personal data whose transmission is implicit in the use of Internet communication protocols.
This information is not collected to be associated with identified individuals, but by its very nature could, through processing and association with data held by third parties, allow users connecting to the site to be identified. The data collected includes IP addresses or domain names of the computers used by users, URI (Uniform Resource Identifier) addresses of the requested resources, the time of the request, the method used to submit the request to the server, the size of the file obtained in response, the numerical code indicating the status of the response given by the server (successful, error, etc.) and other parameters relating to the operating system and the user's computer environment.
This data is processed, for the time necessary to achieve the purpose for which it is collected, solely for the purpose of obtaining anonymous statistical information on the use of the site (accesses to it) and to check its regular operation.
The data could be used to ascertain responsibility in case of hypothetical cyber crimes against the site.
1.2. Data voluntarily provided by the user
If users of this site are asked to provide their personal data to access certain services, a specific and detailed Privacy Policy on the relevant processing will be provided in advance on the pages relating to the individual services, pursuant to Article 13 of the Privacy Code, which will specify the limits, purposes, and methods of the processing itself.
1.3. Cookies
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are sent from the website visited by the user to the user's device (usually to the browser), where they are stored so that the device can be recognized on a subsequent visit. With each subsequent visit, cookies are sent back from the user's device to the site.
Each cookie generally contains: the name of the server from which the cookie was sent; its expiration date and a value, usually a unique number randomly generated by the computer. The web server that transfers the cookie uses this number to recognize you when you return to visit a site or navigate from one page to another.
Cookies can be installed not only by the operator of the site visited by the user (first-party cookies), but also by a different site that installs cookies through the first site (third-party cookies) and is able to recognize them. This happens because the visited site may contain elements (images, maps, sounds, links to web pages of other domains, etc.) that reside on servers different from that of the visited site.
Based on their purpose, cookies are divided into technical cookies and profiling cookies.
Technical cookies are those used solely for the purpose of "carrying out the transmission of a communication over an electronic communications network, or to the extent strictly necessary for the provider of an information society service explicitly requested by the subscriber or user to provide such service" (cf. Article 122, paragraph 1, of the Privacy Code, as amended by Legislative Decree 69/2012). In particular, these cookies are usually used to allow efficient navigation between pages, store user preferences (language, country, etc.), perform computer authentication, manage the shopping cart, or allow online purchases, etc. Some of these cookies (called essential or strictly necessary) enable functions without which certain operations would not be possible. Pursuant to the aforementioned Article 122, paragraph 1 of the Privacy Code, the use of technical cookies does not require the user's consent.
So-called analytics cookies are assimilated to technical cookies if used directly by the site operator to collect aggregated information on the number of users and how they visit the site itself. These cookies allow website owners and/or managers to understand how users interact with the site's content for optimization purposes.
Profiling cookies are used to track user navigation, analyze their behavior for marketing purposes, and create profiles on their tastes, habits, choices, etc., in order to send targeted advertising messages in relation to the user's interests and in line with the preferences expressed by them during online navigation. These cookies can only be installed on the user's terminal if the user has expressed their consent using the simplified methods indicated in the Provision.
Based on their duration, cookies are distinguished into persistent, which remain stored on the user's device until their expiration, unless removed by the user, and session, which are not permanently stored on the user's device and disappear when the browser is closed.
Which cookies are used by this site?
a. Technical cookies
This site uses technical cookies, installed by the site itself to monitor the site's operation and allow efficient navigation on it.
Below, for each technical cookie that may be used, its name, purpose of use, and type/duration are listed. The aforementioned cookies cannot be disabled using the functions of this website, but can be deactivated through your browser settings at any time (as described below). Their deactivation could preclude the optimal use of some areas of the site.
b. Performance and analytics cookies
Analytics cookies are also used to statistically analyze site traffic, count accesses or visits to the site, and allow the owner, also thanks to estimates of numbers and consumption patterns, to improve its structure, navigation logic and content, adapt it to user interests, speed up searches, etc.
Below, for each analytics cookie used, its name, purpose of use, type/duration, and origin are listed.
c. Profiling cookies
Third-party profiling cookies
While browsing this site, the user may receive profiling cookies on their terminal installed and managed by third parties in order to send advertising messages in line with the preferences expressed by the user during their online navigation. This happens because, as indicated above, the site may contain elements that reside on servers other than the one on which the visited site is located. Where third parties set cookies while you visit this site, they obtain information related to the fact that users have visited it. More information on the use of cookies is available by accessing the link indicated below to the third party's website. Refusal of consent to the use of third-party profiling cookies does not interfere with the ability to access the site.
How do I disable cookies?
By default, almost all web browsers are set to automatically accept cookies. However, it is possible to change this default configuration through browser settings. Disabling/blocking cookies or deleting them may, however, preclude the optimal use of some areas of the site, prevent the use of some services, and make navigation slower.
The configuration of cookie management depends on the browser used. Usually, cookie configuration is done through the "Preferences", "Tools", or "Options" menu.
