Categories of data processed

Browsing data

When users browse the website, the IT systems and software procedures used to operate the site may acquire certain data whose transmission is implicit in Internet communication protocols (e.g. IP addresses, device identifiers, user agent, date/time of the request, requested URL, response status). Such information is not collected to be associated with identified individuals; however, by its nature it could, through processing and association with data held by third parties, allow users to be identified.

Data provided voluntarily by the user

Users may provide personal data by contacting MCM Technic via email or through any forms/services available on the website. In such cases, the data provided (e.g. name, company, email address, message content) will be processed to handle the request.

Cookies and identifiers

The website uses cookies and/or similar technologies to ensure proper operation, remember preferences and, subject to consent, perform statistical measurements (analytics cookies). More details are provided below.

Purposes and legal bases

Note: where marketing activities are present (e.g. newsletters), specific consent will be requested and a dedicated notice will be provided.

Processing methods and security measures

Data are processed using electronic and IT tools, following logic strictly related to the purposes described above, and adopting appropriate technical and organisational measures to ensure data security and confidentiality (e.g. access controls, data minimisation, protection against unauthorised access).

Data retention

• Contact/enquiry data: for as long as necessary to handle the request and, if needed, to protect MCM Technic’s rights.
• Browsing/log data: for limited periods, in line with technical and security needs.
• Cookies: for the duration indicated in the “Cookies” section (or until deleted by the user).

Recipients and transfers

Data may be processed by authorised staff of MCM Technic and by service providers acting as data processors (e.g. hosting, maintenance, IT services), only as necessary for the stated purposes. Data are not disclosed to the public.

Where third-party services are used (e.g. analytics tools such as Google Analytics), some data may be processed by those providers in accordance with their own policies. Where transfers outside the EEA occur, they will be carried out in compliance with the GDPR (e.g. adequacy decisions, Standard Contractual Clauses and any supplementary measures where applicable).

Cookie Policy

What cookies are

Cookies are small text files that websites can store on a user’s device (computer, smartphone, tablet) to save information useful for navigation (e.g. preferences) or to measure website usage for statistical purposes.

Types of cookies used

• Technical (necessary) cookies: essential for the website to function (e.g. basic preferences, cookie consent management).
• Analytics (statistics) cookies: used to collect aggregated information about website usage (enabled only with consent).
• Third-party cookies: may be set by external services integrated into the website (e.g. analytics tools, embedded content). If present, they are managed by the relevant providers.

Profiling cookies

We do not use profiling cookies intended to create user profiles and deliver targeted advertising.

Google Analytics (analytics cookies)

If the user accepts analytics cookies via the banner, we may use measurement tools (e.g. Google Analytics) to analyse website traffic statistically. Tracking is enabled only after consent. For more information: Google Privacy and Google Cookies.

Note: the actual configuration (e.g. collection and retention settings) depends on the website’s technical implementation.

Consent management

On first access, a banner is shown allowing users to accept or decline analytics cookies. Necessary technical cookies may always be active because they are essential to the website’s operation.
