Cookie policy
This page explains what cookies are, which ones we use on koratyn.com, why we use them and how you can manage your preferences. The text has been drafted in accordance with the guidelines of the Italian Data Protection Authority and in compliance with EU Regulation 2016/679 (GDPR).
1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files that websites save on the user's device (computer, smartphone, tablet). They allow the site to remember information about the visit — such as the preferred language, login status, items in the cart — making browsing simpler and more personalised.
In addition to cookies, there are similar technologies (such as local storage and session storage) that perform similar functions and which, for the purposes of this policy, are treated in the same way as cookies.
Cookie classification
Cookies can be classified according to several criteria:
- By the party that sets them: first-party (set by the site being visited) or third-party (set by other parties).
- By duration: session cookies (deleted when the browser is closed) or persistent cookies (stored for a defined period of time).
- By purpose: technical (necessary for the site to function) or profiling/analytics (used for analysis or advertising).

3. Cookies used on koratyn.com
3.1 Technical cookies (always active)
Technical cookies are strictly necessary for the site to function. Without them, certain essential features — such as authentication, cart persistence or language preference storage — could not be provided.
Pursuant to Art. 122 of the Italian Privacy Code, the installation of these cookies does not require prior consent from the user. It is sufficient that users are informed about them, as we are doing on this page.

3.2 Analytics cookies (optional — require consent)
At present the site does not install any analytics cookies. The "Analytics" category in the banner is available as an opt-in for possible future use of aggregated statistics tools: no analytics cookie is set unless and until such a tool is activated, in which case it would be listed here and the consent given in the banner would be the legal basis for its installation.
3.3 Marketing cookies (optional — require consent)
The site uses Google Ads conversion tracking, managed through Google Tag Manager, to measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns. These cookies are installed only after you enable the "Marketing" category in the cookie banner. Until then — thanks to Google Consent Mode — no marketing cookie is stored on your device.
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
_gcl_au
|
Google Ads (Conversion Linker): stores ad-click information to attribute conversions. First-party. | 90 days | Marketing |
_gcl_aw, _gcl_dc
|
Set when you reach the site from a Google ad: store the click identifier (gclid) for conversion measurement. First-party. | 90 days | Marketing |
IDE, NID
|
Set by Google/DoubleClick to link the visit to Google Ads campaigns and measure conversions. Third-party. | Up to 13 months | Marketing |
Provider: Google Ireland Ltd. These cookies involve the transfer of data to Google as an independent third party; see Google's privacy policy for details.
4. Legal basis for processing
The processing of data collected via cookies is based on different legal grounds depending on the type:
- Technical cookies: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest of the controller in ensuring the correct functioning of the site) and Art. 122 of Legislative Decree 196/2003 (exemption from consent).
- Marketing cookies (Google Ads, including Google third-party cookies) and analytics cookies (if activated): Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR (explicit consent of the data subject, given via the cookie banner).
5. Retention period
The duration of each cookie is indicated in the table in section 3. In summary:
- Session cookies are deleted automatically when the browser is closed.
- Persistent cookies have a defined duration (up to 1 year for technical cookies; from 90 days up to about 13 months for marketing cookies), after which they are automatically removed from the device.
- The consent given in the banner is stored for 6 months, as recommended by the Italian Data Protection Authority's guidelines. After this period, the banner reappears to allow a new informed consent to be given.
6. Third-party cookies
When you enable the "Marketing" category, the site sets third-party cookies from Google (on the google.com / doubleclick.net domains) as part of the Google Ads conversion tracking described in section 3.3. If you do not enable that category, no third-party cookie is installed.
Links to external platforms (LinkedIn, Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, WhatsApp) present on the pages are simple HTML links that, until the user clicks on them, do not result in any data being transmitted to those parties.
Once a link is clicked, the user leaves koratyn.com and is on a third-party site, whose data processing and cookie policies are governed by their respective privacy notices.
7. How to manage cookies from your browser
In addition to the consent banner on this site, you can control the installation of cookies directly from your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to:
- view cookies already installed;
- block the installation of all cookies or only third-party ones;
- delete existing cookies selectively or entirely;
- set automatic deletion when the browser is closed.
Below are links to the official guides of the main browsers:
Please note: disabling technical cookies may cause certain site features to stop working correctly (e.g. login, cart, preferences).
8. Your rights

- Right of access (Art. 15): obtain confirmation of processing and a copy of the data.
- Right to rectification (Art. 16): correct inaccurate or incomplete data.
- Right to erasure (Art. 17): request the deletion of data ("right to be forgotten").
- Right to restriction (Art. 18): request the suspension of processing in specific cases.
