Cookie Policy of Metapack Engineering Srl (https://www.metapack.it/)

This document contains information about the technologies that allow this Application to achieve the purposes described below. These technologies enable the Owner to collect and store information (for example, through the use of Cookies) or to use resources (for example, by running a script) on the User’s device when the User interacts with this Application.

For simplicity, these technologies are succinctly referred to as “Tracking Tools” in this document, unless there is reason to differentiate.

For example, although Cookies can be used in both web and mobile browsers, it would be inappropriate to discuss Cookies in the context of mobile applications, as they are Tracking Tools that require the presence of a browser. For this reason, within this document, the term “Cookie” is used only to specifically indicate that particular type of Tracking Tool.

Some of the purposes for which Tracking Tools are used may also require the User’s consent. If consent is given, it can be freely revoked at any time following the instructions provided in this document.

This Application uses Tracking Tools managed directly by the Owner (commonly referred to as “first-party” Tracking Tools) and Tracking Tools that enable services provided by third parties (commonly referred to as “third-party” Tracking Tools). Unless otherwise specified within this document, these third parties have access to their respective Tracking Tools.

The duration and expiration of Cookies and other similar Tracking Tools may vary depending on what is set by the Owner or each third-party provider. Some expire at the end of the User’s browsing session.

In addition to what is specified in the description of each of the categories below, Users can obtain more detailed and updated information about the duration, as well as any other relevant information – such as the presence of other Tracking Tools – in the privacy policies of their respective third-party providers (via the links provided) or by contacting the Owner.
