Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device. Similar technologies, such as the browser's local storage, work in a comparable way. This policy lists those used on bioergotech.org, why, and for how long.
Technical cookies and storage needed for the site to work are always active. Analytics and marketing cookies are set only after you consent in the banner, and you can change your choice at any time.
The data controller is Fondazione bioERGOtech ETS, Via Ciro Giovinazzi 70, 74123 Taranto, Italy, C.F. 90287640735, info@bioergotech.org.
