Cookie Policy of localhouse.it
This document contains information regarding the technologies that allow localhouse.it to achieve the purposes described below. Such technologies allow the Data Controller 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 localhouse.it.
For simplicity, in this document such technologies are collectively referred to as “Tracking Tools”, unless there is reason to distinguish them.
For example, although Cookies can be used on both web and mobile browsers, it would be inappropriate to refer to Cookies in the context of mobile applications, since 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 If consent is given, it may be freely withdrawn at any time by following the instructions contained in this document.
Localhouse.it uses Tracking Tools managed directly by the Data Controller (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 in this document, such 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 Data Controller or by each third-party provider. Some of them 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 may obtain more detailed and updated information on duration, as well as any other relevant information – such as the presence of other Tracking Tools – in the privacy policies of the respective third-party providers (through the links provided) or by contacting the Data Controller.
