Cookie Policy for the website
www.alientech-tools.com

1. Introduction

This website uses cookies to ensure the proper functioning of its pages, to personalize content, provide social media features, and analyze traffic.

2. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files that websites visited by the user send to their devices, where they are stored and later retransmitted to the same websites during subsequent visits. They are used to improve website functionality, personalize the user experience, and collect statistical and marketing information.

3. Types of cookies used

The website www.alientech-tools.com uses the following categories of cookies:

  • Necessary cookies
    These are essential for the proper functioning of the website and do not require the user’s consent. They allow, for example, navigation between pages and access to reserved areas.
  • Technical cookies
    These allow the website to remember user choices (such as language or country), improving functionality and personalization.
  • Analytical (statistical) cookies
    These collect anonymous information about website usage, such as the number of visitors and the most visited pages. They are installed only with the user’s consent.

Some domains linked to this website (for example, alientech.academy, alientech.at, alientech.com.au) automatically redirect to this domain. Such domains do not install cookies or process personal data: the redirection occurs immediately and transparently, without executing scripts or using tracking technologies.
For information on data processing and the use of cookies, please refer exclusively to this Cookie Policy.

4. Third-party cookies

This website may include content or features provided by third parties, which may install their own cookies for technical, analytical, or marketing purposes.

The detailed list of cookies used, including those from third parties, is available in section 7) List of cookies used.

For more information about data processing by third-party cookie providers, please refer to their respective privacy and cookie policies.

5. Consent management

Users can manage their cookie preferences through the consent banner displayed upon their first visit to the website. The banner allows users to:

  • Accept all cookies by clicking the “Accept all” button.
  • Reject all non-essential cookies by clicking the “Reject all” button or closing the banner using the “X” in the top right corner.
  • Customize their preferences by clicking the “Customize” button to select which cookie categories to enable. To confirm their preferences, users must click “Save my preferences.”

Once a choice is made, the banner will not reappear on subsequent visits. However, users can modify or withdraw their consent to non-essential cookies at any time by clicking the “Edit cookie preferences” link, which is always visible as an overlay on all pages of the website. Withdrawal of consent takes effect immediately and does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before withdrawal.

User preferences are recorded through the consent management platform, which uses a technical cookie to store the chosen options.

Use of the website remains possible even if non-essential cookies are refused, although some functionalities may be limited.

Note: if the user’s browser is configured to automatically delete cookies upon closing or to block them, any saved preferences will be lost. In that case, the consent banner will reappear at the next visit.

6. Managing cookies via browser

Users can also manage and/or delete cookies through their browser settings.

For example, it is possible to:

  • block third-party cookies,
  • delete all cookies,
  • set exceptions for specific websites,
  • receive warnings before storing a cookie.

The preferences set in the browser apply only to the browser and device used.

Warning: disabling or deleting cookies (especially technical/necessary ones) may impair some website features or services. If cookies are deleted, the consent banner may reappear at the next visit. For more information, please consult your browser’s “Help” section (for example, Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge) or, on mobile devices, the operating system settings (for example, iOS, Android).

7. List of cookies used

Below is the updated list of cookies used by the website, including name, purpose, type, duration, provider/third party, any extra-EU data transfer, and link to the related privacy/cookie policy. Cookies are divided into categories according to their function.

Legend – “Extra-EU transfer” column

  • Yes (Country): data processing through this cookie involves transfer to a non-EU country indicated in parentheses (for example, “Yes (USA)”).
  • No: data processing takes place exclusively within the EU/EEA.
  • Not applicable: the cookie does not send data to external servers but stores information locally on the user’s device.

Technical note – Google Tag Manager

This website uses Google Tag Manager, a tool that allows centralized management and distribution of third-party tags and scripts. Google Tag Manager does not use cookies or directly collect personal data, but it may trigger tags that process data (such as Google Analytics) based on the user’s consent.

8. Legal basis for processing

  • Necessary cookies are installed based on the Controller’s legitimate interest (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR).
  • Technical cookies are installed with the user’s explicit consent only if not strictly necessary for the website’s technical operation; in such cases, the legal basis is the user’s consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR). If the technical cookie is essential to provide a service requested by the user (for example, to store the selected language), it is considered a necessary cookie and installed based on the Controller’s legitimate interest (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR).
  • Analytical cookies are installed only with the user’s explicit consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR).

9. Data communication and disclosure

Data collected through cookies may be processed by entities acting on behalf of the Controller as data processors or by third parties as independent controllers. Data will not be disclosed.

10. Extra-EU data transfer

The use of third-party cookies may involve the transfer of data to countries outside the European Union (e.g., the United States). In such cases, transfers take place based on standard contractual clauses or other safeguards provided by the GDPR.

11. Consent storage

User consent is tracked and recorded through a preference management system, which uses a technical cookie on the user’s device to store the expressed preference.

No personal data is associated with this consent: the necessary cookie stores are only anonymous or equivalent identifier, required to link the user’s expressed preferences without tracking their identity.

Cookie preferences are stored for no longer than 12 months, after which the banner will be displayed again to allow the user to update their choices. The banner may also be re-shown earlier in the event of substantial changes to the cookies used by the website or to their purposes.

12. Data Controller

The Data Controller is Alientech S.r.l. a socio unico – VAT No. 02007510023, registered in 13039 Trino (VC), Italy in Via dei Cordari 1 – e-mail: legal@alientech.to
