1. Introduction

With this document, the Data Controllers, Moncler UK Ltd. and Industries S.p.A., both belonging to the Moncler Group, provide users of the site www.moncler.com (hereinafter, the “Site”) with some information on the cookies used.

2. What are cookies?

Cookies are strings of text that the Site visited by the user (so-called ‘first parties’), or other sites or web servers (so-called ‘third parties’) directly or indirectly place and store on the user’s terminal device (usually on the browser).

The information encoded in the cookies may include personal data such as an IP address, a username, a unique session identifier or an email address, but may also contain non-personal data such as language settings or information about the type of device a person is using to browse the website.

Cookies are used for different purposes such as monitoring browsing sessions, storing information on specific configurations of users accessing the server, promoting and selling customized products and services, and facilitating the use of online content.

Cookies differ from one another on the basis of their duration (session or permanent cookies) and the party using them (depending on whether they are installed by the site operator, acting as a ‘first party’, or by third parties). In this regard, it is possible to distinguish two macrocategories:

• Technical cookies, used for the sole purpose of “transmitting a communication over an electronic communications network, or to the extent strictly necessary for the provider of an information service explicitly requested by the contractor or user to provide such service” (see Article 122, paragraph 1, of the Personal Data Protection Code n. 196/2003, as amended by EU Regulation 679/2016). These cookies may be installed on the user’s terminal without the user’s consent, on the basis of the need to provide the service requested by the user or the legitimate interest of the Data Controller to enable the proper functioning of the Site;
• Profiling cookies, used to link specific actions or recurring behavioral patterns in the use of the functions offered (patterns) to specific, identified or identifiable parties in order to group the various profiles within uniform clusters of various sizes, so that the Data Controller can modulate the provision of the service in an increasingly personalized manner beyond what is strictly necessary for the provision of the service, as well as send targeted advertising messages, i.e. in line with the preferences expressed by the user while browsing the web. These cookies can be installed on the user’s terminal only with prior consent.
• Analytics cookies, used to assess the effectiveness of an information society service provided by a publisher, to design a website or to help measure its “traffic,” i.e., the number of visitors, including by geographic area, connection time or other characteristics. These cookies can be installed on the user’s terminal only with prior consent.
• Social cookies, used to enable interaction and easy sharing of content on social networks and/or to enable the sending of targeted advertisements based on user preferences. These cookies can be installed on the user’s terminal only with prior consent.

3. List of cookies in use on the site

(A) Technical cookies



The Site uses cookies for technical purposes in order to allow the Site to function properly and to recognise users who return to visit the Site. These cookies do not require the user’s prior consent to be installed and used.

The Site uses navigation or session cookies, by means of which normal navigation and use of the Site is ensured. They make it possible, for example, to make a purchase or authenticate oneself to access restricted areas. These cookies are necessary for a better use of the Site.

Although technical cookies do not require the user’s prior consent to be installed and used, they can still be managed by the user through the browser settings (as specified in the section “How to manage cookie settings” of the browser and in point 4 of this Cookie Policy). However, their deletion may affect the full enjoyment of the Site.

The technical cookies present on the Site are listed below. For each one, the Cookie ID, the type, a brief description of how it works and the retention period are indicated.

(B) Other types of cookies (profiling, analytics and social)



The Site also uses additional cookies for analytical and statistical purposes, in order to improve user interaction with the Site, including through access to social networks, and to customise the sending of information and communications of an advertising nature based on the interests expressed by the user (profiling).

For all information on third-party cookies and how to revoke consent to individual cookies, please refer to the respective privacy policy and the tool provided by the third party to revoke consent to individual cookies.

It is possible to revoke the consent given for third-party cookies (i.e. from companies that are part of the WebChoices platform of the Digital Advertising Alliance, including Facebook) installed on the user’s browser via the following link: https://optout.aboutads.info/?c=2&lang=EN.

To control user’s preferences and revoke the consent to the use of third-party cookies, the user can use the tool provided by “Your Online Choices”, available at the following link: www.youronlinechoices.com.



Alternatively, users can follow the instructions provided by their browser to change their preferences on the cookies used by the Site at any time.

The other cookies, other than technical cookies, used on the Site are listed below. For each one, the Cookie ID, the type, a brief description of how it works and the retention period are indicated.

Cookie List

Technical Cookies

These cookies are necessary for the website to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually only set in response to actions made by you which amount to a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in or filling in forms. You can set your browser to block or alert you about these cookies, but some parts of the site will not then work. These cookies do not store any personally identifiable information.

Performance Cookies

These cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our site. They help us to know which pages are the most and least popular and see how visitors move around the site. All information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous. If you do not allow these cookies we will not know when you have visited our site, and will not be able to monitor its performance.

Marketing Cookies

These cookies may be set through our site by our advertising partners. They may be used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant adverts on other sites. They do not store directly personal information, but are based on uniquely identifying your browser and internet device. If you do not allow these cookies, you will experience less targeted advertising.

Personalization Cookies

These cookies enable the website to provide enhanced functionality and personalisation. They may be set by us or by third party providers whose services we have added to our pages. If you do not allow these cookies then some or all of these services may not function properly.

(C) Other social functionalities (e.g., plugins)



In addition to the cookies mentioned above, the Website also incorporates plugins and/or buttons in order to allow easy sharing of content on the following social networks: Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and YouTube. If a user does not wish the social network to record data relating to their visit to the Website, they must log out of the social network account and delete the cookies that the social network has installed in the user’s browser.

For certain activities, the Data Controller and the social network operator may act as joint controllers within the meaning of Article 26 of the GDPR, specifically if the Data Controller determines jointly with the social network operator the purposes and means of processing through the collection and transmission of user data to the social network by means of a plugin installed on the Site. In these cases, the Data Controller shall comply with the contractual terms of the social network, which may include co-ownership agreements for the processing.

Finally, note that in any case joint control does not extend to processing carried out by social networks in relation to which the Company does not determine the purposes and means of processing (e.g. operations carried out by the social network after the User’s data have been disclosed by the Website).

With regard to the collection and use of information by social networks, please refer to their respective privacy policies:

• Facebook          link to privacy policy – cookie policy
  
• Instagram          link to privacy policy – cookie policy
  
• X                       link to privacy policy – cookie policy
