4. Types of cookies used

4.1 Essential Cookies (always active)

These cookies are necessary for the website to function and to keep it secure, and do not require consent: they are set in response to actions you take, such as choosing your privacy preferences or filling in a form. The reCAPTCHA cookie serves solely to protect our forms from automated submissions and activates only when you start filling one in: we do not use it to profile you.

5. How to manage cookies

You can manage your cookie preferences in two ways:

5.1 Through our banner

You can change your cookie preferences at any time by clicking the button below:

5.2 Where we store your choice and how long it lasts

Your choice is stored in the technical cookie castaldo_cookie_consent and, as a copy, in the browser localStorage, together with the date on which you made it: this lets us honour it on your next visit and demonstrate that consent was collected properly. The choice stays valid for 12 months, after which the banner will ask again. If we update the cookie categories or the services in use, the previous consent lapses and is requested again. You can change your mind at any time using the button above: if you withdraw a category you had accepted, the page reloads so that scripts already running stop immediately.

5.3 Through your browser

You can also manage cookies directly from your browser settings. Below are links to guides for major browsers:

Note: disabling some cookies may affect the proper functioning of the website.

6. International transfers

Some of our service providers (Google, Calendly, LinkedIn) are based in the United States. Transfers to the USA take place on the basis of the European Commission adequacy decision of 10 July 2023 on the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, where the provider is certified under it, or on the basis of the Standard Contractual Clauses adopted by the European Commission.

We reserve the right to modify this Cookie Policy at any time. Changes will be published on this page with the new update date. We recommend checking this page periodically.
