Cookie Policy

Introduction

This Cookie Policy is intended to describe the management methods of the Semantica website with reference to the use of cookies and other tracking technologies. This policy supplements our Privacy Policy.

Cookies are small text files that the sites visited by the user send directly to their terminal (usually to the browser), where they are stored to be then retransmitted to the same sites on the next visit by the same user (so-called first-party cookies). While browsing a site, the user can also receive cookies from different sites or web servers on their terminal (so-called third-party cookies); this happens because the visited website may contain elements such as, for example, images, maps, sounds, specific links to web pages of other domains that reside on servers other than the one on which the requested page is located.

What are Cookies?

Cookies are used for various purposes depending on their type. Some are strictly necessary for the proper functioning of a website (technical cookies), while others optimize its performance to offer a better user experience or allow the acquisition of statistics on the use of the site (analytical cookies). Still others are used to display personalized advertisements (profiling cookies).

Your consent is only required for the use of non-anonymized third-party analytical and profiling cookies. Technical and anonymized analytical cookies do not require your consent.

Types of Cookies Used

Our site uses the following categories of cookies:

• Technical (or Necessary) Cookies: These cookies are essential to allow browsing the site and using its features. They do not collect personal information and are indispensable for the functioning of the site. They include navigation or session cookies, which guarantee the normal navigation and use of the website. According to current legislation, their use does not require your consent.
• Analytical (or Statistical) Cookies: These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with the site, providing information in an aggregate and anonymous form on the number of users and how they navigate. We use Google Analytics 4 with anonymized IP addresses, a configuration that equates these cookies to technical ones, therefore your consent is not required. All information collected is purely statistical and aims to improve the usability of the site.
• Profiling (Marketing) Cookies: These cookies are used to track the user's navigation on the network and create profiles on their tastes, habits, and choices. With these cookies, it is possible to transmit advertising messages to the user's terminal in line with the preferences already expressed. Your explicit consent is required for the use of these cookies. Currently, our site does not directly use first-party profiling cookies.
• Third-Party Cookies: While browsing, you may receive cookies from third-party sites or web servers. This happens when the site contains elements such as maps, videos, or social plugins (e.g., Google Maps, YouTube). These third parties act as autonomous data controllers. For more information, please consult their respective privacy policies.
