Cookie Policy
Last updated: 24 October 2026
This English version is provided for convenience. The Italian version is the legally binding text.
1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files that a website saves in your browser. Similar technologies, such as the browser's local storage, work in the same way. Some are needed for a site to work. Others are used to measure visits, show advertising or build a profile of the user.
2. Our approach
- No advertising or profiling cookies.
-
Statistics only with your consent. Google Analytics is not loaded, and nothing is sent to Google, until you click "Accept statistics".
-
Rejecting is as easy as accepting. "Reject" and "Accept" have the same size, and closing the banner with × counts as a rejection.
-
You can change your mind at any time with the "Cookie settings" link at the bottom of every page.
-
Your choice is remembered for 6 months. After that, we ask again.
3. Technical storage (no consent needed)
These items are stored in your browser's local storage only so that the site works as you expect. They are exempt from consent under art. 122 of the Italian Privacy Code and the Italian Data Protection Authority's Cookie Guidelines of 10 June 2021. They are never sent to us or to anyone else.

4. Statistics cookies (only with your consent)
If you click "Accept statistics", we use Google Analytics 4, provided by Google Ireland Limited, to count visits and see which pages are useful, so we can improve the site. We have set it up to limit the data collected:
- advertising features, Google Signals and ad personalisation are turned off;
- Google Analytics 4 does not record or store IP addresses;
- it runs only on www.imeca3d.com, never on test copies of the site.
| Name | Provider | Purpose | Duration |

_ga_<ID> |
Keeps the state of the visit (session) | 2 years |
Statistics are kept in Google Analytics for up to 14 months. Google may process data in the United States. This transfer is covered by the EU–US Data Privacy Framework. More information: Google's privacy policy (policies.google.com/privacy) and how Google uses data from sites that use its services (policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites).
If you reject, or withdraw your consent later, Google Analytics stops and its cookies are deleted from your browser.
5. Third-party content
The site does not embed videos, maps or social media plugins. The links to LinkedIn, Instagram, TikTok and WhatsApp are plain links: nothing is loaded from those services until you click. Once you leave our site, the other service's own privacy and cookie policies apply.
Fonts, scripts, the 3D file preview on the quote form and all images are served from our own hosting.
6. Managing cookies in your browser
Besides the "Cookie settings" link, you can view, block or delete cookies and local storage at any time in your browser settings. Blocking local storage may stop the shopping cart from working.
