Cookies are small text files that websites may store on the user’s device while browsing. They may be used to recognise the device, maintain a session, remember preferences, manage the cart, improve security or collect statistical and advertising information.
In addition to cookies, the website may use similar technologies, such as pixels, tags, scripts, online identifiers, localStorage, sessionStorage and other tools that store or read information from the user’s device.

These cookies are necessary for the proper functioning of the website and do not require the user’s consent. They allow, for example:

- management of the cart and checkout process;
- storage of privacy and cookie preferences;
- website security;
- prevention of fraud, abuse or unauthorised access;
- management of payments and essential ecommerce functions.
3.2 Functional cookies
These cookies or technologies allow the website to remember certain preferences or improve specific functions, such as language, interface settings, viewed products, product navigation or display preferences.
When these technologies are not strictly necessary for the operation of the website, they are used on the basis of the user’s consent, where required.
3.3 Analytics and measurement cookies
Analytics cookies allow information to be collected about website usage, such as pages visited, products viewed, interactions, traffic sources, technical performance and conversions.
When they are not configured as purely technical or anonymous tools, they are used only with the user’s prior consent.
3.4 Marketing, advertising and remarketing cookies
These cookies and similar technologies may be used to display personalised ads, measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns, create remarketing audiences, analyse conversions and send events to connected advertising services.
These tools are activated only with the user’s prior consent, where required by the applicable law.
4. Consent management
When first accessing the website, the user sees a consent management banner that allows them to accept, reject or customise the use of non-necessary cookies.
In the absence of consent, cookies and tools that are not necessary for analytics, marketing, remarketing and personalised advertising are not activated.
The user may modify or withdraw consent at any time through the cookie preference management link available on the website, where present in the footer or in the consent banner.
The preferences expressed by the user are stored so that the website can respect the choices made.
5. Google Tag Manager and tag management
XTec.it may use Google Tag Manager to centrally manage scripts, tags, pixels and measurement or marketing tools.
Google Tag Manager itself is a tag management tool and does not independently set profiling cookies. However, other services such as analytics, advertising, remarketing or conversion tracking tools may be activated through Google Tag Manager.
The activation of non-necessary tags is managed according to the user’s consent preferences.
6. Google Consent Mode
The website may use consent management mechanisms, including Google Consent Mode, to communicate the status of the user’s preferences to Google services.
Depending on whether consent is granted or denied, signals relating to features such as analytics, advertising, ad personalisation, advertising data and conversion measurement may be adjusted.
If consent is denied, consent-based tags are limited or not activated according to the configuration set on the website.
7. Third-party cookies and tools
