This policy aims to explain how Orthofix S.r.l., in its quality of data controller (the “Controller” or the “Company”), collects and processes personal data through cookies and other tracking technologies on this website tlhex.com (the “Website”) and to provide information as to the choices that any user of the Website (the “User”) can make in terms of controlling what cookies are installed when he/she accesses and browses the Website.
The information gathered by means of cookies and other tracking technologies constitute data that, in certain cases, may allow the Company to identify the Users by associating such data with other information kept by third parties (such as, for example, the IP address, DNS and registration numbers of the computers used by people connecting to the Website). These data are processed for different purposes, including statistical purposes in order to provide Users with an increasingly better service that meets their needs.
This document shall form, according to the applicable data protection legislation, including Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (the “GDPR”), an integral and substantial part of the Company’s Privacy Policy. To learn more about how we process personal data on the Website and more in general about our approach to privacy, please read such document as well.
A cookie is a small file, typically made up of letters and numbers, downloaded on to a device when the user accesses a website. Cookies are useful because they allow a website to recognize a user’s device.
The use of cookies and similar tracking technologies may be used to provide basic functions and to collect information about the user’s browsing experience. Using such technologies is not, therefore, prohibited by the law but it requires that users are properly informed about how they operate and the consequences deriving from their use, so to have the choice to disable them, if feasible.
There are various types of cookies, depending on their characteristics and use. While some cookies and tracking technologies are strictly necessary to browse a website (for example, cookies that store the user’s preferences or cookies that keep the user account logged in), others may only be installed with the user’s consent.
Depending on the their owner, cookies can be classified as first or third-party cookies. Whether a cookie is ‘first’ or ‘third’ party refers to the website or domain setting the cookie. First party cookies are cookies set by the publisher, i.e. by the website visited by the user, in the case at stake cookies set by tlhex.com. Third party cookies are cookies set by a website or domain other than the one being visited by the user, in the case at stake cookies which are set by websites other than tlhex.com. Third-party cookies are installed due to the fact that a website may have certain elements (images, sounds, specific links to websites located in another domain, etc.) that install cookies that reside on a different server. The data collected by these third parties are governed by their specific privacy policies, their terms and conditions or their cookie policies, over which the Company has no control.
Third party cookies are used on the Website. Moreover, depending on their duration, cookies can be classified as session or persistent cookies. Session cookies expire at the end of a browsing session (from when a user opens the browser window to when he/she exits the browser), whereas permanent cookies are not deleted after the user closes the browser, but are stored on the user’s device in between browsing sessions until a predefined expiry date or until they are deleted.
Finally, depending on their purpose, cookies can be classified as:
Technical cookies are necessary for the website to work properly and to improve the user’s browsing experience. Technical cookies include:

In other words, analytical cookies may be used to track the traffic and performance of a website, by collecting aggregate data on the number of users and how they interact with the website to improve its services.
For example, analytical cookies may collect information about how users access a website, including the number of visitors, possibly grouped by geographical area, time slot, how long users stay on the website for, what parts of the website they visit or other characteristics, the number of pages visited or the number of users who viewed a particular section.
