Cookie policy

1. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the website to recognise your device on subsequent visits and to store certain information about your preferences or actions. Similar technologies (including local storage, session storage, and pixel tags) may be used for equivalent purposes; all such technologies are referred to collectively as “cookies” in this policy.

2. Who sets cookies on this website

Cookies on webclear.global may be set either by us (first-party cookies) or by third-party service providers whose functionality is integrated into the website (third-party cookies). Third parties who set cookies on this website are identified in section 4 below.

3. Categories of cookies used

3.1 Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies are essential to the operation of the website and cannot be switched off without impairing functionality. They are typically set in response to actions you take, such as submitting a form or setting a consent preference. They do not store any personally identifiable information and do not require your consent under the ePrivacy Directive and Italian Garante guidelines.

Examples of strictly necessary cookies used on this website:

1. Cookie consent status - stores your consent preferences to avoid displaying the consent banner on every page visit.
2. Session tokens - maintain your session state as you navigate the website (where applicable).
3. Security cookies - used by our hosting provider to prevent cross-site request forgery and similar attacks.

3.2 Analytics and performance cookies

These cookies collect information about how visitors use the website, including which pages are visited most often and whether users encounter error messages. All information collected by these cookies is aggregated and anonymised or pseudonymised. They are used to improve the performance of the website.

These cookies are set only with your prior consent. You may withdraw consent at any time by adjusting your cookie preferences via the consent management panel or your browser settings.

Analytics tools currently in use on this website (where applicable):

1. Google Analytics (Google LLC) - collects anonymised data on website traffic and user behaviour. Data may be transferred to the United States under appropriate safeguards (Standard Contractual Clauses). Google's privacy policy is available at policies.google.com/privacy.

3.3 Functionality cookies

These cookies allow the website to remember choices you make (such as your language preference or previously completed form fields) to provide a more personalised experience. They are set only with your prior consent.

3.4 Marketing and targeting cookies

At the date of this policy, Clear S.r.l. S.B. does not use marketing or targeting cookies on webclear.global. If this changes in the future, this policy will be updated and your consent will be sought prior to any such cookies being set.

4. Third-party cookies

Where third-party services are integrated into webclear.global (for example, scheduling widgets or embedded content), those third parties may set their own cookies on your device. We do not control these cookies and they are governed by the privacy policies of the respective third parties. Third-party providers currently integrated into this website include:

1. Calendly (Calendly LLC) - if you access a booking widget on this website, Calendly may set cookies in connection with the scheduling process. See calendly.com/privacy.
2. Fonts and CDN providers - web fonts loaded from third-party providers (such as Google Fonts or Fontshare) may involve the processing of your IP address by those providers. We endeavour to self-host or proxy fonts where technically feasible to minimise this.

5. How to manage your cookie preferences

When you first visit webclear.global, you are presented with a cookie consent banner that allows you to accept or decline non-essential cookies. You can change your preferences at any time by:

1. Using the consent management panel - accessible from the footer of the website or the cookie banner, if available.
2. Adjusting your browser settings - most modern browsers allow you to block or delete cookies. Please refer to the help section of your browser for instructions. Note that blocking all cookies may affect the functionality of some websites.
3. Using opt-out tools - for analytics cookies, you may use the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on, available at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

Withdrawing consent for analytics cookies does not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before withdrawal.

6. Legal basis for the use of non-essential cookies

Non-essential cookies (analytics, functionality, and marketing cookies) are set only on the basis of your freely given, specific, informed, and unambiguous consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR and Article 122 of the Codice Privacy as amended), obtained via the cookie consent mechanism prior to any such cookie being placed on your device.

Strictly necessary cookies do not require consent, as they are technically indispensable for the provision of the service you have explicitly requested.

7. Retention of cookie data

The retention period of each cookie depends on its type and purpose. Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain on your device for a defined period (see the specific cookie details in section 3). In all cases, we endeavour to minimise retention periods in line with the data minimisation principle under Article 5(1)(e) GDPR.

8. Changes to this policy

We may update this cookie policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use or changes in applicable law. Please check this page periodically for updates. The version number and date at the foot of this document indicate when the policy was last revised.
