When you access or interact with the website enistation.ch, services, tools or messaging systems, we – or our authorised service providers – may use cookies, web beacons and other similar technologies for advertising purposes and to store information in order to offer you a better, faster and more secure service.
The aim of this page is for us to provide further information on the technologies adopted and how they are used on the Website and in our services and tools. A summary is provided below of some important aspects to be aware of as regards the use of these technologies, as well as the full text of our Cookie Policy.
Our cookies and similar technologies have various functions. They are used to ensure the functioning of our services and allow us to improve performance, offer additional features, or offer you advertising that is targeted or in line with your interests. We use cookies and similar technologies that remain on your device only for the duration of the browser session (session cookies) or for a longer period (permanent cookies). You can block, delete or deactivate them if permitted by your device. You can manage cookies and cookie preferences via your device or browser settings.
Where possible, security measures are implemented to prevent unauthorised access to cookies and similar technologies. A unique code guarantees that only us and/or our authorised service providers can access cookie data. For the processing of your personal data in relation to cookies issued directly by us, the data controller is Eni S.p.A. For processing activities relating to cookies issued by third parties, each third party is an independent data controller.
The service providers are companies that support us in various aspects of our business, dealing for example with operations, advertising services and website tools. We use our authorised service providers to show you advertising in line with your interests, our services and on other webpages. These service providers may place cookies on your device via our services (third-party cookies). They can also obtain information that allows them to identify your device, such as its IP address or other unique or device-specific codes.
The information that has to be shown on websites that use cookies is provided below.
Like most websites, we use small data files that are saved on your computer, tablet, mobile phone, or other mobile device (referred to collectively as "device") to record certain data each time you access or interact with the Website, services and tools.
The specific names and types of cookies, web beacons and other similar technologies used may change over time. To give you a better understanding of the policy and the use of these technologies, some terms with their definitions are provided below:
Cookies: small text files (usually comprising letters and numbers) that are saved in the browser or device memory when you visit a site or view a message. Cookies allow a site to recognise a particular device or browser. There are various types of cookies:
Cookies can be disabled or removed using the tools available in most browsers. Cookie preferences have to be set separately for each browser used, as each of them offers specific features and options.
Web beacon: small images, also known as "pixel tags" or “clear GIFs", which we may include in our websites, services, apps, messages and tools. They generally work with cookies to identify our users and their activities.
Similar technologies: technologies that store data in the browser or device using locally shared objects or local storage, such as flash cookies, HTML 5 cookies, and other software methods for web applications. These technologies work in all browsers. In some cases, the use of local storage cannot be managed in full through browsers and has to be managed using specific tools. We do not use these technologies to store information for creating targeted advertisements on our or other websites.
The terms "cookies" and "similar technologies" can be used interchangeably in this policy, referring to all the technologies used to store data in your browser or device or to technologies that collect data or which enable you to be identified in the manner described above.
