Cookie Policy

The regulations governing the use of so-called "cookies" and other similar technologies on users' devices (desktop computers, laptops, tablets, smartphones, etc.) have been amended following the implementation of Directive 2009/136/EC, which modified the ePrivacy Directive 2002/58/EC.

In Italy, this Directive was implemented through Legislative Decree No. 69 of 28 May 2012, which amended Legislative Decree No. 196 of 30 June 2003, the "Personal Data Protection Code".

In particular, Article 122 of Legislative Decree 196/03 was replaced and now provides that: 1. The storage of information on a subscriber's or user's terminal device, or access to information already stored, is permitted only if the subscriber or user has given their consent after having been informed using the simplified procedures referred to in Article 13, paragraph 3.

This does not prevent any technical storage or access to information already stored where such actions are carried out solely for the purpose of transmitting a communication over an electronic communications network, or to the extent strictly necessary for the provider of an information society service explicitly requested by the subscriber or user to provide that service. For the purpose of determining the simplified procedures referred to above, the Italian Data Protection Authority shall also take into account proposals submitted by the most representative national consumer associations and the economic sectors involved, including with the aim of ensuring the adoption of methodologies that guarantee the subscriber's or user's effective awareness. 2.

For the purposes of obtaining the consent referred to in paragraph 1, specific browser or device settings that are easy to use and understand for the subscriber or user may be adopted. Below we would like to inform visitors to the website www.romafinefoods.com about how cookies are used.
