This website uses so-called cookies. Pursuant to art. 13 of EU Regulation 2016/679 (GDPR) and the applicable national legislation on the processing of personal data and cookies, this Cookie Policy clarifies the meaning of cookies and explains which cookies are used and for what purpose. The complete Privacy Policy of the website is available at the following link: Privacy Policy;
The owner of this website is “Radames Srl” (hereinafter “Sharp”) – with registered office in Piazza Mazzini 18, 22100 – Como.
Cookies are small text files that are sent by websites to the users’ device when they visit them. After being stored on the device, they are sent back to the same websites upon the next visit from the same device (“first-party cookies”). While browsing a website, the user may also receive on their device cookies from different websites or web servers (“third-party cookies”), which are set by a website different from the one currently being visited. This happens because the visited website may contain elements such as, for example, images, maps, sounds, specific links to web pages on other domains, which reside on servers different from the one where the requested page is located.
Cookies can have different lifespans. There are temporary cookies (i.e., limited to a single browsing session in the browser) which are automatically deactivated when the user closes the browser; and persistent cookies which have a predetermined expiration date and will remain stored and active on the user’s hard drive until their expiration date or until they are voluntarily deleted, continuing to collect information across different browsing sessions in the browser.
3.1 Technical cookies
Technical cookies are used solely to allow the user to browse the website and to enable them to use it with all its features. They are first-party cookies, as they are managed directly by Sharp.
Some technical cookies, “navigation cookies”, are essential to provide the user with an optimal browsing experience or to allow the creation of a user profile that enables, for example, access to the private area of the website or an online purchase. Navigation cookies are normally temporary cookies.
Other technical cookies, “functionality cookies”, are useful for storing certain user preferences (for example, language, browser type or country of origin) so that they do not need to be reset during subsequent visits. Functionality cookies are often persistent cookies.
3.2 Analytics cookies
Analytics cookies are used on the website to collect statistical information, in aggregated form or otherwise, on the number of users who access the website and how they visit it.
3.3 Profiling cookies
Profiling cookies are used to collect personal data and create a user profile, based on the preferences shown while browsing the web. They allow the user to be offered advertising messages tailored to their consumer profile according to their tastes and habits.
As required by the applicable privacy legislation, the user’s prior consent is required for the installation of such cookies.
The user is free to prevent the installation of profiling cookies at any time, without compromising the possibility of visiting the website and using its contents. If the user decides to disable profiling cookies, this does not mean they will no longer receive advertising on the website. Moreover, the advertising displayed may not reflect their interests.
