1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files that websites send to the user’s device, where they are stored and then sent back to the same websites upon subsequent visits. They are used to ensure websites work properly or to improve the browsing experience.
2. Types of cookies used on this website
The website syntazen.com only uses technical cookies that are essential for the system to function correctly. No profiling cookies or third-party tracking tools are used.
Essential technical cookies
- PHPSESSID: session cookie generated by Syntazen’s proprietary CMS. It maintains the user’s session and expires automatically when the browser is closed.
Analytics cookies
Website analytics are managed internally using the Matomo platform, self-hosted on Syntazen’s infrastructure and configured in cookieless mode. This means that Matomo does not store any cookies on the user’s device and does not allow direct or indirect identification of visitors. Therefore, according to the Italian Data Protection Authority’s decision of 10 June 2021, no prior consent is required.
3. Cookie management
Since the website only uses technical cookies, no consent banner or cookie management tool is required. Users may disable or delete technical cookies via their browser settings at any time, understanding that doing so may affect the proper functioning of the website.
4. Legal basis for processing
The use of technical cookies is based on Art. 6(1)(f) of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (the controller’s legitimate interest in ensuring the proper functioning of the website).
