3. TECHNICAL COOKIES AND LEGAL BASIS OF DATA PROCESSING

There are different types of cookies. Some are necessary to be able to navigate the website, others have different purposes such as ensuring internal security, administering the system, carrying out statistical analyses, understanding which sections of the site are of most interest to users or offering a personalized visit to the site.
The website www.ridnetwork.com only uses technical and non-profiling cookies. The foregoing refers both to the user’s computer and to any other device that the user can use to connect to the site.

They are not used for other purposes and are normally installed directly by the owner or manager of the website.
Technical cookies can be divided into the following types:
– navigation or session cookies, which guarantee normal navigation and use of the website (allowing, for example, to make a purchase or authenticate to access restricted areas);
– analytics cookies, assimilated to technical cookies when used directly by the site manager to collect information, in aggregate form, on the number of users and how they visit the site itself;
– functionality cookies, which allow the user to navigate according to a series of selected criteria (for example, the language or products selected for purchase) in order to improve the service provided.
