Extended cookie information
Cookies are small text files sent by a web-server – such as the website – to the user’s internet browser and from this sent back to the web-server at each subsequent access to the site. In other words, websites generally collect small amounts of information about the user’s activity on the site in which he is browsing. This information is precisely contained in that text file known as a “cookie”, stored on the user’s personal computer.
In order to ensure the best possible navigation, the websites offer the best performance with cookies enabled. Thanks to cookies, the site “remembers” the user when he returns to that website, manages to identify and resolve errors, providing faster and more specific navigation. Additional data, of a personal nature and independent of cookies, can only be stored through an explicit consent of the user, such as, for example, when registering on a site to attend a distance training course by filling out the appropriate registration form, whose personal information is necessary to complete the administrative procedures required by current regulations in terms of ECM (continuing education in medicine).
Cookies cannot cause damage to the user’s computer. Infomedica also very carefully selects all third-party suppliers who can set cookies for marketing purposes.
Within this website, therefore, Infomedica srl does not use cookies for the purpose of visitor profiling, but cookies of a technical nature for the sole purpose of memorizing the information necessary to improve navigation within the site and to obtain anonymous statistics on access to the site. These data are processed anonymously, aggregated, non-persistent and are not used for sending personalized advertising. We remind you once again that the personal data relating to the ECM activity are used only and exclusively for this purpose (reporting of results, or attestation of the acquisition of credits), for which the user is always required to give explicit consent at the time of registration to the chosen training activity.
The use of cookies can be deactivated at any time by following the browser settings, which also allows them to be deleted after each session.
If cookies are deemed useful in other cases than those set out above, the purpose of their use will be communicated from time to time and, if necessary, explicitly authorized by the visitor.
