N3PDF is hosted by INFN servers and as such for any doubts you could consult the following privacy policy (only in Italian): http://home.infn.it/it/privacy
In particular, N3PDF uses one functional cookie (small pieces of data that are downloaded to your computer or mobile device when you visit a website or application) to display the cookie banner via the WP Cookie Banner plugin.
Functional cookies are used to save the user’s browsing preferences.
Functional cookies can be disabled without any consequence on the navigation of the portal: to disable them, see the next section.
The WP Cookie Banner plugin cookie stores the display of the brief information by the user who surfs the site.
If the user keeps the cookies active, the banner with the brief information will not be re-presented at each subsequent access to the site, for a period of 1 day. After 1 day, it will be displayed again.
If the user disables the cookies, the banner will open every time the user accesses a page of the site.
Besides this plugin cookie, N3PDF uses SlimStat to monitor the website visits. The data collected is used to obtain anonymous statistical information on the use of the site and to check its correct functioning; it is not associated with identified users. However, due to its nature and through association with data held by third parties, it could allow the identification of the interested parties. This category includes, for example, the IP address of the system used to connect to the portal.
Finally, there might be cookies set by third parties. For example, some N3PDF web pages may contain content from other sites like Twitter, which may use its own cookies. Also, if you share a link to a N3PDF page, the service you share it on (for example, Facebook) may set a cookie on your browser. We have no control over third-party cookies – you can disable them, but not through us.
