Cookies
This site uses cookies. Cookies are strings of text, made up of letters and numbers sent to the user’s device by the website s/he visits (“first-party cookies”) or by third-party websites (“third-party cookies”), which are then sent back to the same websites each time the user visits them again. They are used in connection to the functioning of the web site and to recognise who has already visited it (“technical”), to allow better browsing (“functional”), to obtain statistics (“analytics”) or to obtain information on the activities that the user carries out online (“marketing”).
Cookies do not allow the access to other data stored in the user’s device, although cookies will physically be downloaded on the latter. Cookies cannot load any kind of code, transfer virus or malware and do not damage the user’s computer.
Below, you can find detailed information on the cookies installed through this website and all necessary indications on how to manage the related preferences.
User consent
When accessing for the first time any of the pages of this site, the user will view a brief information notice on the use of the cookies together with a set of related buttons, all contained in the so-called “cookie banner”.
By clicking on the “accept all” button, the user consents to the use of all cookies as described in the policy. By clicking on “reject all” the user only accepts technical cookies and those strictly functional to the use of the site. By clicking on the “customise your choices” button the user can access the cookie management panel, where s/he can choose the functionalities, third parties and cookies he wishes to authorise and give (or revoke – in case s/he has already given it) the consent to the use of each category of cookie. Except in the case of justified exemptions, the site remembers on the device the choice made by the user for 6 months, so the cookie banner will not be displayed in subsequent connections through the same device.
However, the user always has the possibility of revoking all or part of the consent already given by clicking on “manage cookies” at the bottom of each page of the site, as well as manually managing cookies (please see the paragraph “Changing your preferences or configuring your device not to receive cookies”).
If you are experiencing technical problems in providing consent, please don’t hesitate to contact us through the appropriate channels on this site so that we can assist you.
Types of cookies we use
The use of cookies by the site manager, VMC SpA with registered office in Via Palazzon, 35 - I-36051 Creazzo (VI) - Italy – is included in the
Privacy Policy of the website.
When you browse this site you will receive both first-party cookies and cookies from third party sites, who may set cookies on your device on our behalf in order to execute their services.
In order to allow the use of our website and to supply our services, we use both the so-called persistent cookies (i.e. cookies, which remain on the user’s computer/device memory until the user erases them manually or for a pre-defined period of time) and the so-called session cookies, which are not stored on the user’s computer/device forever and disappear when the user closes the browser.
We use different kinds of cookies – with their own specific functions. These cookies can be classified as follows:
FIRST-PARTY COOKIES
TYPE OF COOKIE |
FUNCTION |
Necessary/Session Technical/Browsing
(consent of the user is not necessary for the use of these cookies and they are set by default)
|
They are essential for the proper functioning of our site and enable the user to navigate the web site and view its content. Their deactivation may lead to the malfunctioning of the site. Generally, cookies of this type are necessary, for example, to keep a browsing session open or to allow the user to access a restricted area. Moreover, they can temporarily remember text inserted by the users when filling a form when returning to a previous page during the same session. |
Necessary/Functional
(consent of the user is not necessary for the use of these cookies and they are set by default)
|
They allow the user to take full advantage of the site’s feature and enjoy more comfortable browsing. The site functions ideally if these cookies are enabled, however, you can decide not to allow you activation on your device. In general, for example, cookies of this type remember the language in which you prefer to view the content or remember (for a limited period) the items in your shopping cart if you close the session before you have completed your purchase. |
Necessary/Consent
(consent of the user is not necessary for the use of these cookies and they are set by default)
|
This cookie keeps track of the user’s consent to the use of cookies on the site, so that on subsequent visits the cookie banner and the consent request will not be shown again. |
THIRD -PARTY COOKIES
This site uses third-party cookies. Third-party cookies allow us to obtain information about your browsing habits. We use them, for example, to collect information for advertising purposes and to customise the content of the site, as well as to compile statistics on its use and to assess your interest for specific content or services. More detailed information on these cookies is available in the following paragraphs and on the respective websites of third parties, to which we will provide a link.

They are not necessary, but they are of great help for us to enable us to improve our content and services according to the information we obtain from the analysis of the statistics. |
Third – party statistic cookie (Analytics)
This site uses Google Analytics, a web traffic analysis service provided by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway - Mountain View - CA94043 USA, which uses cookies to collect and analyse, in aggregate form, information related to user navigation.
