Cookie policy

In compliance with Provision 229 (available here: http://www.garanteprivacy.it/web/guest/home/docweb/-/docweb-display/docweb/3118884) issued by the Guarantor for the Protection of Personal Data in the data May 8, 2014, Weingut Steinhaus s.r.l., provides the following information on cookies, their functions and how to disable them if necessary.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that the sites visited by the user send and record on their personal computer or any other device, including mobile, to then be re-transmitted to the same sites on the next visit. Cookies are used for various purposes: for example, to remember user actions and preferences (such as, for example, login data, chosen language, font size, other display settings, etc.) that they do not have to be indicated again when the user returns to visit said site or browse from one page to another of it; or to perform computer authentication, session monitoring and storage of information regarding the activities of users who access a site and may also contain a unique identification code that allows you to keep track of the user’s navigation within the site for statistical purposes or advertising.

There are therefore different types of cookies, which can be distinguished by their characteristics and functions:

Navigation or session cookies

These cookies are not stored permanently on the user’s device and are deleted when the browser is closed. Unlike other cookies, session cookies do not have an expiration date, and based on this the browser is able to identify them as such.

Technical cookies

They are used to the extent strictly necessary to provide a service explicitly requested by the user. In other words, these are cookies that are useful for navigation and to facilitate the access and use of the site by the user. Technical cookies are essential, for example, to access your profile or the shopping cart section of an ecommerce without having to log in to all sessions. They are also present in fundamental operations such as payment by credit card or through other systems.

Analytical cookies

These are used to collect information, in aggregate form, on the number of users of the site and the pages viewed (for example Google Analytics). Please refer to the related policies which may change periodically and which it is therefore advisable to consult over time, where more detailed information is available, for example https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/analyticsjs/cookieusage.

Third party cookies

third-party cookies belong to domains other than the one shown in the address bar. These types of cookies generally appear when web pages are equipped with content, such as advertising banners, from external websites that, through tracking activities, monitor user preferences in an attempt to serve relevant and personalized ads for each.

The cookies on this site are therefore the following

Security related to cookies

used by the user for different periods of time, depending on the function they perform. The cookies stored on the computer or mobile device cannot be used to retrieve any data from the hard disk, transmit computer viruses, or for purposes other than those described above.

How to change your cookie settings

Most browsers are configured to accept, control or possibly disable cookies through the settings. However, we remind you that disabling navigation or functional cookies can cause the site to function and / or limit the service we offer.

It is therefore possible to set and manage your cookie preferences at any time by selecting which cookies to authorize, block or delete, in whole or in part, through the settings of your browser; here we report the path to follow to manage cookies from the main browsers used:

What does it mean to delete and / or disable cookies?

The deletion of cookies could mean that:

  • the cached settings would no longer be usable and therefore in case of login you will have to log in again
  • the site may be slower as some features would no longer be enabled
  • you may have to manually enter some information or preferences each time you visit the site

Please note:
our site will keep the user’s preferences in terms of cookies thanks to a special technical cookie, which the user must accept when the website is first loaded on their browser.
