Cookie Policy

Last updated: 1 September 2026

 

1. Introduction

This Cookie Policy describes the use of cookies and similar tracking technologies on www.maxinadvisory.com, operated by Massimiliano Iannozzi, an Independent Financial Adviser trading as MaxIn Wealth Advisory.

This notice supplements the website’s Privacy Policy and should be read together with it. Matters not expressly addressed in this Cookie Policy are governed by the Privacy Policy, the Terms and Conditions and the other legal documents available on the website.

This Cookie Policy is provided pursuant to Article 122 of Italian Legislative Decree No. 196/2003, Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (the GDPR) and the Guidelines of the Italian Data Protection Authority on cookies and other tracking technologies.

2. Data Controller

The data controller is

MaxIn Wealth Advisory is a trading name used to identify the Data Controller’s professional practice and does not constitute a separate legal entity.

3. What Are Cookies and Tracking Technologies?

Cookies are small text files that websites visited by a user may send to and store on the device used for browsing, such as a computer, tablet or smartphone. Cookies may subsequently be sent back to the same websites during later visits.

Cookies may be used, for example, to ensure the proper technical operation of the website, remember the user's preferences, maintain an active browsing session, store consent choices or collect statistical information on website use.

In addition to cookies, similar technologies may be used, including pixels, web beacons, scripts, unique identifiers, local storage, session storage and other technical tools that can store or read information on the user's device. For convenience, the term "cookies" in this document also includes such similar technologies, where applicable.

4. Types of Cookies Used by the Website

The website is institutional and informational in nature. It does not provide a restricted area, user accounts, e-commerce, online payments, a shopping cart, public comments or community features.

As at the date of the latest update to this Cookie Policy, the website may use the following categories of cookies or similar technologies:

4.1 Strictly necessary cookies

Strictly necessary cookies are required to enable browsing, ensure the proper operation and security of the website, manage the technical session and store the user's cookie preferences.

These cookies do not require the user's prior consent because they are strictly necessary to provide the requested service or operate the website.

This category may include, by way of example:

· browsing and session cookies;

· cookies required for website security;

· cookies required to operate the cookie banner or consent-management system;

· cookies or technical tools associated with hosting, the domain and the proper delivery of web pages.

4.2 Analytics cookies and measurement tools

The website uses Google Analytics to collect statistical information on website use, pages visited, browsing duration, the device used and how users interact with the pages.

This information is used to understand how the website is used, improve its content, verify its operation and optimise the browsing experience.

Unless Google Analytics is configured in a manner that allows its cookies to be treated as technical cookies under applicable law, third-party analytics cookies are installed only after the user has given consent through the cookie banner.

4.3 Google Fonts

The website may use Google Fonts to display typefaces correctly and ensure visual consistency across published content.

Where fonts are loaded from Google servers, the user's browser may transmit certain technical information to Google, including the IP address, browser data, device data and information relating to the page visited. The Data Controller does not use Google Fonts for advertising-profiling purposes.

If the use of Google Fonts or similar services involves installing or reading tracking technologies that are not strictly necessary, the related processing will be subject to the user's consent where required by applicable law.

4.4 Marketing and profiling cookies

As at the date of the latest update to this Cookie Policy, the website does not use marketing cookies, advertising profiling, retargeting, social advertising or similar tools designed to create user profiles or display personalised advertising.

If marketing or profiling cookies are introduced in the future, they will be installed only after the user has expressly consented through the cookie banner, and this Cookie Policy will be updated accordingly.

5. Main Cookies and Services

The following table summarizes the cookies and services used or envisaged in the website's configuration. The dynamic list available in the "Customize consent preferences" panel identifies the cookies that are active at the time of the visit, together with their technical name, duration and purpose.

Strictly necessary cookies are installed without the user's consent because they are essential to operate the website or store the preferences expressed. Functional and analytics cookies are disabled by default and are installed only after the user has given consent.

Google Fonts does not install cookies. If typefaces are loaded from Google servers, technical requests are made to the relevant domains.

Not applicable to cookies

External link

LinkedIn

Link to the Data Controller's professional profile and curriculum vitae.

No LinkedIn cookies are installed by the website where a standard external link is used.

Not required for a standard link

The "nrid" cookie is generated by EngageBox when functions such as statistics, display-frequency limits or checks as to whether other content has previously been displayed are used. The provider states that the cookie lasts for one year and does not transmit data to third-party applications.

Google Analytics 4 ordinarily uses the _ga cookie to distinguish users and the _ga_<ID> cookie to maintain session state; Google states that their default duration is two years. The relevant row in the table applies from the date on which Google Analytics is actually enabled on the website.

Google states that the Google Fonts Web API neither sets nor records cookies. Where fonts are loaded directly from Google servers, the browser nevertheless makes technical requests to the service's domains; these operations are also described in the Privacy Policy.

The website does not currently use Meta Pixel, TikTok Pixel, Microsoft Clarity, HubSpot, Calendly, embedded YouTube videos, social plug-ins or other marketing or profiling tools. If any such services are introduced in the future, this notice will first be updated and consent will be requested where necessary.

6. Third-Party Cookies and External Providers

Certain technical tools or services connected with the website are provided by external parties, which may process data as processors or independent controllers, depending on the nature of the service and their respective privacy notices.

As at the date of the latest update, the principal relevant external providers are:

· Aruba S.p.A., for website hosting, the domain, DNS services and other related technical services;

· CookieYes, for managing the banner, cookie preferences and records of the consent choices made;

· Google Ireland Limited and Google LLC, for Google Analytics 4 from the date on which it is actually enabled, and for Google Fonts where the typefaces are loaded from Google servers;

· EngageBox, as a technical component used to manage specific content and the frequency with which it is displayed;

· Microsoft 365 / Outlook, for managing email and communications that users may send, as further described in the Privacy Policy;

· LinkedIn, solely where the user voluntarily selects the external link to the Data Controller's professional profile.

Merely accessing the website does not cause the Data Controller to install LinkedIn cookies, because the website contains a standard external link rather than an embedded widget or social plug-in. Once the user selects the link and accesses LinkedIn, data processing is governed by the provider's own terms and privacy notices.

Functional and analytics cookies are not installed before the user has given consent through the banner. Users may reject them, select them by category or subsequently change their preferences through the permanent cookie-management control available on the website. The Italian Data Protection Authority requires only essential technical tools to be active on the first visit, with any other tracking technologies remaining disabled until consent has been given.

The CookieYes banner should therefore show the following settings:

· Necessary: always active;

· Functional: disabled on the first visit;

· Analytics: disabled on the first visit;

· Performance: empty;

· Advertisement: empty;

· Uncategorized: empty.

7. Managing Consent Through the Cookie Banner

On the first visit to the website, where cookies or technologies that are not strictly necessary are present, the user is shown a cookie banner allowing the user to:

· accept all non-essential cookies;

· reject all non-essential cookies and continue using only strictly necessary cookies;

· manage preferences in detail, where available, by category or purpose;

· subsequently change or withdraw the preferences expressed.

Merely continuing to browse, scrolling the page or closing the banner does not constitute consent to the installation of non-essential cookies.

Cookies that are not strictly necessary are installed only after the user has given express consent, where required by applicable law.

The user's preferences may be stored through a dedicated technical cookie or equivalent tool solely to remember the choice made and avoid displaying the banner on every visit, unless this Cookie Policy is updated, the cookies used change materially or the user deletes cookies.

8. Changing or Withdrawing Consent

Users may change or withdraw any consent given at any time through the cookie-preference link or panel available on the website, where active.

Alternatively, users may delete cookies already installed through their browser settings. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.

9. Managing Cookies Through Browser Settings

Users may also manage, block or delete cookies through their browser settings. Disabling strictly necessary cookies may impair the proper operation of the website or certain features.

Guidance for the principal browsers is available through the following links:

· Google Chrome

· Mozilla Firefox

· Apple Safari

· Microsoft Edge

· Opera

· Brave

To disable Google Analytics, users may also install the browser add-on provided by Google: Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

10. Transfers of Data Outside the European Economic Area

The use of services provided by third parties, particularly Google Analytics and Google Fonts, may involve the processing of personal data or technical information outside the European Economic Area.

In such cases, transfers are made in accordance with Chapter V GDPR, on the basis of a European Commission adequacy decision, standard contractual clauses, the EU–US Data Privacy Framework where applicable, or other safeguards provided by applicable law.

Further information on international transfers and recipients of personal data is provided in the website's Privacy Policy.

11. Consequences of Rejecting or Disabling Cookies

Rejecting non-essential cookies does not prevent users from browsing the website.

Disabling strictly necessary cookies through browser settings or other tools may, however, prevent pages from loading correctly, interfere with the cookie banner, prevent preferences from being stored or disable other essential technical features.

Rejecting analytics cookies prevents the Data Controller from collecting complete statistics on website use but does not affect access to the informational content published on the website.

12. Data Subject Rights

In relation to personal data that may be processed through cookies or similar technologies, users may exercise the rights provided by Articles 15–22 GDPR, including the rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction, objection, data portability where applicable, and withdrawal of consent.

Requests may be sent using the contact details set out in this Cookie Policy and the website's Privacy Policy.

Users also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Italian Data Protection Authority in accordance with the procedures described at www.garanteprivacy.it.

13. Links to Third-Party Websites

The website may contain links to third-party websites or platforms, including a link to the Data Controller's LinkedIn profile.

When a user selects an external link and accesses a third-party website, the processing of personal data and any use of cookies or tracking technologies are governed by the third party's privacy and cookie policies, with that third party acting as an independent controller. The Data Controller does not control those third-party websites and is not responsible for their privacy or cookie settings.

14. Changes to this Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy may be amended or updated at any time, including as a result of changes in law, technical developments affecting the website, the introduction or removal of third-party services, or updates to consent-management tools.

Any changes will be published on the website together with the date of the latest update. Where material changes concern non-essential cookies or technologies subject to consent, the banner may be displayed again so that the user can make a new choice.
