Types of Processed Data and Purpose of Processing

1. Browsing Data

The IT systems and software procedures used to operate this Site acquire certain personal data in their normal course of operation, which are transmitted implicitly when using Internet communication protocols. These data are not collected to be associated with identified individuals but, due to their nature, they could, through processing and association with data held by third parties, allow users/visitors to be identified (e.g., IP addresses, domain names of computers used by users connecting to the site, response status codes issued by the server, browser type, etc.).

These data are used only for statistical information purposes (thus anonymous) and to check the correct functioning of the Site. Web contact data are not retained for more than six months, except in cases where they are required for investigating cyber crimes against the site. No data deriving from the web service will be communicated or disseminated.

2. Cookie

2.1 General Information on Cookies

Cookies are small text files that websites visited by users send to their devices (usually to the browser), where they are stored and later sent back to the same sites upon subsequent visits from the same device. Additionally, each website may allow the transmission of so-called “third-party” cookies, meaning those generated by websites different from the one being visited (through embedded objects such as banners, images, maps, sounds, specific links to other domain web pages).

Depending on their duration, cookies are classified as session cookies (temporary, automatically deleted at the end of the browsing session when the browser is closed) or persistent cookies (which remain stored on the device until their expiration or deletion by the user).

Cookies serve various purposes. Primarily, they are used to facilitate communication or provide the requested service; specifically, they enable and optimize website functionality, perform authentication and prevent abuse, monitor sessions, and improve user navigation (e.g., maintaining a session active in restricted areas without the need to re-enter User-ID and password and storing user-specific information such as preferences, browser type, and device used).

These cookies are classified as technical cookies, for which user consent is not required, as without them, some functions could not be performed or would be more complex and/or less secure.

Conversely, if cookies are used for additional purposes, such as behavioral analysis and sending personalized promotional messages (so-called “profiling cookies”) or even just for obtaining aggregated information about the number of users and how they visit the site (so-called “analytics cookies”), user consent is required. According to the applicable law (Privacy Code and the General Provision of the Italian Data Protection Authority of May 8, 2014), when users access the homepage or another page of the site, a banner appears providing a brief notice about the use of cookies and requesting consent, which can be given by continuing to browse or closing the banner.

In any case, cookies can only be read or modified by the website that generated them; they cannot retrieve any data from the user’s device or transmit viruses. Some cookie functions may also be performed by other technologies; therefore, within this privacy policy, the term “cookies” refers to cookies and all similar technologies.

2.2 Cookies Analytics

This site includes components transmitted by Google Analytics, a web traffic analysis service provided by Google, Inc. (“Google”). These cookies are used solely to monitor and improve website performance. For further information, please visit: www.google.it/policies/privacy/partners.

Users can selectively disable Google Analytics by installing the opt-out component provided by Google. To disable Google Analytics, visit: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

2.3 Managing Cookies

Users can choose to accept or decline cookies using their browser settings.

Warning: Disabling technical cookies, whether fully or partially, may compromise optimal website usage.

Disabling third-party cookies does not affect site navigation. The settings can be specifically configured for different websites and web applications. Additionally, browsers allow users to define different settings for “first-party” and “third-party” cookies.

For example, in Firefox, users can access Tools → Options → Privacy to manage their cookie preferences and remove cookies. Detailed instructions for managing cookies for different browsers are readily available online.

3. Data Voluntarily Provided by Users/Visitors

If users/visitors voluntarily submit their personal data to access specific services, Gen USA acquires the sender’s address and/or any additional personal data provided, which will be processed solely to respond to the request or provide the requested service.

Personal data voluntarily submitted via the Site’s forms may be used to send informational communications, such as newsletters or event updates, only regarding the Company’s activities. No data deriving from the web service will be communicated or disseminated.

Processing Methods

Data processing is carried out using IT, telematic, and/or manual tools (e.g., paper-based) for the time strictly necessary to achieve the purposes for which the data were collected, in compliance with applicable legal provisions.

Optional Data Provision

Except for browsing data, users/visitors are free to provide their personal data. However, failure to provide them may result in the inability to fulfill the requested service.
