ItalianoCookie Policy of www.inomluxuryauctions.com
This document contains information about the technologies that allow this Application to achieve the purposes described below. These technologies enable the Data Controller to collect and store information (for example, through the use of Cookies) or to use resources (for example, by running a script) on the User’s device when the User interacts with this Application. For simplicity, these technologies are briefly referred to as “Tracking Tools” in this document, unless there is a reason to differentiate.
For example, although Cookies can be used in both web and mobile browsers, it would be inappropriate to talk about Cookies in the context of mobile applications, since they are Tracking Tools that require the presence of a browser. For this reason, within this document, the term “Cookie” is used only to specifically indicate that particular type of Tracking Tool.
Some of the purposes for which Tracking Tools are used may also require the User’s consent. If consent is given, it can be freely revoked at any time by following the instructions contained in this document.
This Application uses Tracking Tools managed directly by the Owner (commonly referred to as “first-party” Tracking Tools) and Tracking Tools that enable services provided by third parties (commonly referred to as “third-party” Tracking Tools). Unless otherwise specified within this document, such third parties have access to their respective Tracking Tools.
The duration and expiration of Cookies and other similar Tracking Tools may vary depending on what is set by the Owner or each third-party provider. Some of them expire at the end of the User’s browsing session.
In addition to what is specified in the description of each of the categories listed below, Users can obtain more detailed and up-to-date information about the duration, as well as any other relevant information – such as the presence of other Tracking Tools – in the privacy policies of their respective third-party providers (via the provided links) or by contacting the Owner.
Activities strictly necessary to ensure the functioning of this Application and the provision of the Service.
This Application uses Cookies commonly referred to as “technical” or other similar Tracking Tools to perform activities strictly necessary to ensure the functioning or provision of the Service.
These information does not concern other websites, pages, or online services that can be accessed via hyperlinks possibly published on the Site but referring to resources external to the Owner’s domain.
This Privacy Policy refers exclusively to data collected through the Site and to cookies used for browsing the web pages of the Site and does not extend to data collected directly, or through cookies, from sites managed by other entities to which the Site may possibly refer.
Other activities involving the use of Tracking Tools.
Measurement

How to manage preferences and give or withdraw consent
There are various ways to manage preferences related to Tracking Tools and to give or withdraw consent, as necessary:
Users can manage preferences related to Tracking Tools directly through the settings of their devices – for example, they can prevent the use or storage of Tracking Tools.
In addition, whenever the use of Tracking Tools depends on consent, the User can give or withdraw such consent by setting preferences within the cookie policy or by updating such preferences through the tracking settings widget, if available.
Thanks to specific functions of the browser or device, it is also possible to remove previously saved Tracking Tools.
Other Tracking Tools stored in the local memory of the browser can be removed by clearing the browsing history.
Regarding third-party Tracking Tools, Users can manage preferences and withdraw consent by visiting the respective opt-out link (if available), using the tools described in the third-party privacy policy, or by contacting the third party directly.
Locating Tracking Tools Settings
Users can, for example, find information on how to manage Cookies in some of the most common browsers at the following addresses:
Users can also manage some Tracking Tools for mobile applications by disabling them through the appropriate device settings, such as mobile advertising settings or settings related to tracking in general (Users can consult the device settings to locate the relevant one).
Consequences of Refusing Consent
Users are free to decide whether to give their consent or not. However, please note that Tracking Tools allow this Application to provide a better experience and advanced functionality to Users (in line with the purposes outlined in this document). Therefore, in the absence of User consent, the Owner may not be able to provide the related features.

This Cookie Policy specifically aims to illustrate the types of cookies installed on the website www.inomluxuryauctions.com, their purposes, and methods of use, as well as to provide guidance on how users can refuse consent, even at a later time, and/or change, at any time and easily, the options related to the use of cookies by the Site.
To change cookie settings, the user must access the settings of the browser used following the instructions provided in this Cookie Policy.
What are cookies?
Cookies are typically text strings that websites (so-called Publishers, or “first parties”) visited by the user or different websites or web servers (so-called “third parties”) place and store – directly, in the case of publishers and indirectly, i.e., through the former, in the case of “third parties” – on a terminal device available to the user themselves.
The information encoded in cookies may include personal data, such as an IP address, a username, a unique identifier, or an email address, but may also contain non-personal data, such as language settings or information about the type of device that a person is using to browse the site.
Cookies can perform important and varied functions, including monitoring sessions, storing information about specific configurations regarding users accessing the server, facilitating the enjoyment of online content, etc. They can, for example, be used to track items in an online shopping cart or information used for filling out a computer form.
While cookies can allow web pages to load faster and route information over a network – thus in line with obligations closely related to the operation of websites – they can also be used to deliver behavioral advertising and then measure the effectiveness of the advertising message, or tailor the type and mode of services rendered to the behavior of the user subject to previous observation.
The Italian Data Protection Authority, in the “Cookie and Other Tracking Tools Guidelines” of June 10, 2021, which came into force on January 10, 2022, identified the following macro-categories of cookies:
- Technical cookies: they are those used for the sole purpose of “carrying out the transmission of a communication over an electronic communications network, or to the extent strictly necessary for the provider of an information society service explicitly requested by the subscriber or user to provide that service” (cf. art. 122, paragraph 1, of Legislative Decree no. 196/2003, also Privacy Code). For the use of such cookies and other technical identifiers, the prior consent of users is not required, while the obligation to provide information pursuant to art. 13 of Regulation (EU) no. 2016/679 remains unchanged, which the website manager may provide in the manner deemed most appropriate.
- Profiling cookies: used to track specific actions or recurring behavioral patterns in the use of offered functionalities (patterns) with the aim of grouping different profiles into homogeneous clusters of various sizes, so that the data controller can, among other things, tailor the service delivery in a more personalized way beyond what is strictly necessary for the service provision, as well as send targeted advertising messages, i.e., in line with the user’s preferences expressed during online browsing.
Due to the significant intrusion into users’ privacy that such cookies may have, European and Italian regulations require that users be adequately informed about their use and express their valid consent. Article 122 of the Privacy Code refers to them where it provides, in paragraph 1, that “the storage of information on a user’s device or access to information already stored is allowed only if the user has given his or her consent after being informed by simplified means”.
How do you delete cookies?
Each user can change the use of cookies by adjusting the settings of the browser in use. The user is able to modify the default configuration and, by setting the highest level of protection, permanently disable all cookies. However, it is important to note that this setting may render the Website unusable if essential cookies for the proper functioning of the functionalities are blocked.
The methods for blocking or deleting cookies from your device vary depending on the type of device (PC, smartphone, etc.) and the type of browser used.

What types and categories of cookies does the Data Controller use on the Website and for what purposes?
The Website uses technical cookies only to the extent necessary to allow safe and efficient exploration of the site.

No cookies are used for user profiling (nor are other tracking methods employed).
In particular, the data acquired by the Website through analytical cookies are processed in an aggregated, and therefore anonymous, form in order to understand which are the most visited pages and, more generally, the ways in which it is used. This type of cookie is provided exclusively by third parties:
