Cookies are small text files that websites visited send to the user's device (computer, smartphone, or tablet), where they are stored and then retransmitted to the same sites on subsequent visits.

Cookies allow the Site to recognize the user, improve their browsing experience, and collect information about the use of the Site.

The Site uses the following categories of cookies:

a) Technical Cookies

These cookies are essential for the proper functioning of the Site and to allow the user to navigate and use the services offered.

They include, for example:

• shopping cart management
• access to the reserved area
• saving preferences

These cookies do not require user consent.

b) Analytical Cookies

These cookies allow the collection of aggregated information on the use of the Site (e.g., number of visitors, pages visited, time spent).

These cookies can be assimilated to technical cookies only if anonymized; otherwise, they are used with the user's prior consent.

c) Marketing and Profiling Cookies

These cookies are used to track user navigation and create profiles in order to send advertising messages in line with the preferences expressed.

The Site uses, among others:

• Meta (Facebook and Instagram) Ads – via Meta Business Suite
• TikTok for Business
• Klaviyo (email marketing and communication personalization)

These tools can install cookies and similar technologies to:

• measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns
• create customized audiences
• show targeted ads on other platforms

The use of such cookies requires the user's prior consent.

The Website uses services provided by third parties that may install cookies independently.

For more information, please refer to their respective privacy policies:

• Meta: https://www.facebook.com/privacy/policy
• TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/legal/privacy-policy
• Klaviyo: https://www.klaviyo.com/legal/privacy-policy

ANIMA has no direct control over cookies installed by these parties.

Upon first access to the Site, the user can:

• accept all cookies
• reject non-essential cookies
• customize their preferences

Preferences can be changed at any time by re-accessing the Site.

The user can manage or disable cookies directly from their browser settings.

Below are links to instructions for the main browsers:

• Chrome
• Safari
• Firefox
• Edge

Disabling technical cookies may compromise the proper functioning of the Website.

With the exception of navigation data (the provision and collection of which are regulated by the "Cookie Policy"), the provision to ANIMA of personal data collected through the Website, both to meet users' requests and questions, and for marketing purposes, for studying consumption habits and preferences and for communication to third parties is free, optional and voluntary. Failure to provide such data does not limit the use of the Website, but may make it impossible for ANIMA to respond to requests for information and questions, or to send informational material, updates, newsletters and invitations to ANIMA events. The provision of personal data, in particular personal details, e-mail address, postal address, telephone number and bank details (in the case of credit card payments) is necessary with regard to the conclusion of the purchase contract
of products through the Website. Failure to provide such data may therefore make it impossible to complete the purchase through the Website.

Some of these data may also be essential for the provision of other services rendered on the Website and related to the sale (pre- and post-sales services, such as, for example, the
personalisation service, etc.) or to comply with obligations arising from laws or regulations (tax compliance and anti-money laundering regulations). Failure to indicate the data may therefore constitute, depending on the case, a legitimate and justified reason for not executing the contract for the purchase of products on the Website and/or the provision of related services.

Where necessary, the mandatory or optional nature of the data communication will be indicated from time to time by placing a special character (*) next to the information necessary for the provision of services and for the purchase of products on the Website. Failure to indicate personal data indicated as optional will not entail any limitation or disadvantage for the user.

Data collected via cookies is retained for the time strictly necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, in compliance with current regulations.

The specific duration of cookies may vary depending on the type and provider.

For information on the processing of personal data and on the rights that can be exercised (access, cancellation, opposition, etc.), please refer to the Privacy Policy available on the Website.
