Whenever you submit Personal Data via this Website for any reason whatsoever (including without limitation the submission of (i) testimonials in relation to Menarini's goods and/or services, (ii) any information in relation to a job application at Menarini, or (iii) a query in relation to any of Menarini's products) you consent to the collection, use, Processing and Disclosure of that Personal Data by Menarini in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

Collection of Personal Data

Menarini understands the importance of protecting your Personal Data. Menarini may collect Personal Data from you by asking specific questions or allowing you to communicate directly with us via e-mail, surveys, questionnaires, feedback forms or the provision of testimonials. Menarini may also collect information about your visits to our Website, including your Personal Data, without you submitting any such Personal Data directly to us. As you navigate through a Website, information may be collected using technological means such as cookies, tags, web beacons and other navigational data collection tools, as explained in this document.

Navigation Data

The Website uses cookies, tags and web beacons. Cookies are small text files that this Website sends to your computer's hard drive to identify the computer you are using. Tags are smaller than cookies and tell the Website server information such as the Internet Protocol address and the browser types related to your computer. Web beacons are usually invisible to the user but are embedded in a web page or email that tracks whether a user has viewed a web page or email. Other navigational data collection tools are used for system management, to improve the Content of the Website, and for market research purposes.

By browsing the Website, you consent to the use of Cookies, Tags and Web beacons for the purposes specified in this Privacy Policy.

What Cookies We Use

There exist two macro-categories of cookies, namely "technical cookies" and "profiling cookies". Technical cookies are necessary for the correct functioning of a website and make navigation possible for the user; without them, the user may be unable to view the website's pages correctly or to use some services. Profiling cookies are designed to create profiles of the user so as to send on-line commercial ads in line with the preferences the user has expressed during navigation.

Cookies can further be classified as:

1. "session" cookies, which are immediately deleted after the navigation browser is closed;
2. "persistent" cookies, which are stored in the browser for a given period of time. Persistent cookies are typically used to recognise the device that connects to a particular website so as to render the authentication operations easier for the user;
3. "site's own" cookies, also known as "first party" cookies, generated and managed directly by the manager of the website that the user is navigating; and
4. "third party" cookies, generated and managed by subjects other than the manager of the website that the user is navigating.

Our Website uses the following types of cookies:

1. "first party" cookies, which can be either "session" or "persistent". These are necessary to make the navigation of the Web site possible, and are required for purposes of internal security and system administration;
2. "third-party" cookies, which can be either "session" or "persistent". Again, these are necessary to enable the user to use those multimedia elements (such as images and videos) which are present on the Website;
3. "third-party" or "persistent" cookies used by the Web site in order to send statistical information to the Google Analytics system, through which Menarini may carry out statistical analyses of the accesses/visits to the Web site. These cookies are used exclusively for statistical purposes and retain information in aggregate form. Using a pair of cookies (respectively, a persistent cookie and a session cookie, the latter of which is deleted when the user closes the browser), Google Analytics also saves the timestamp of the start of the visit and the exit from the Website. It is possible to prevent Google from using cookies to collect data, and therefore to prevent their consequent processing, by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available at the following website: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=it
4. "third-party" or "persistent" cookies used by the Website to include in its pages the buttons of some social networks (such as LinkedIn). By selecting one of these buttons, a user may publish on his/her personal page of the relevant social network the content of the Website's webpage they are navigating; and
5. profiling cookies which are used by third parties to send the user commercial ads in line with the preferences the user has expressed when navigating the internet.

You may disable the majority of third-party cookies in use on this website by following the procedures described in this Privacy Policy (available by clicking on the links provided in the table below) - or by amending their browser's settings.

The following table contains the details of the cookies that are present on the Website. For each "third-party" cookie, you will find a link to the privacy policy of the relevant subject who generates and manages such cookies.
