Cookies Policy

This cookies policy is referred exclusively to the corporate Web site jrsusa.org and must be understood as an integral part of the Privacy policy reported on the same site.

Definitions, Characteristics And Application Of The Legislation

Cookies are small text files that the sites visited by the user send and register on their computer or mobile device, to be retransmitted to the same sites at the next visit.

Thanks to cookies, a site remembers the user’s actions and preferences (such as login data, the chosen language, font sizes, other display settings, etc.) so that they do not need to be re-indicated when the user returns to visit this site or navigate from one page to another of it.

Cookies, therefore, are used to perform computer authentication, session monitoring, and storage of information regarding the activities of users who access a site and may also contain a unique identifier that allows keeping track of the user’s navigation within the site for statistical or advertising purposes.

During the navigation on a site, the user may receive on his computer or mobile device also cookies of sites or web servers other than the one he is visiting (so-called “third party” cookies).

Some operations could not be accomplished without the use of cookies, which in some cases are therefore technically necessary for the same operation of the site.

There are various types of cookies, depending on their characteristics and functions, and these can remain in the user’s computer or mobile device for different periods of time: so-called session cookies, which is automatically deleted when the browser closes; so-called persistent cookies, which remain on the user’s equipment up to a fixed deadline.

According to the regulations in force in Italy, the user’s express consent is not always required for the use of cookies. In particular, the “technical cookies”, i.e. those used only for the purpose of transmitting a communication on an electronic communication network, or to the extent strictly necessary to provide a service explicitly requested by the user, don’t request this consent.

In other words, these are the cookies that are indispensable to the operation of the site or necessary to perform tasks required by the user.

Among the technical cookies, which do not require an express consent for their use, the Guarantor for the protection of personal data in Italy (see Provision “Identification of the simplified modalities for the information and the acquisition of the consent for the use of the cookies” of May 8, 2014, hereinafter only “Provision”) also includes:

  • The “navigation or session cookies” (to authenticate)
  • The “analytics cookies” where used directly by the site manager to collect information, in aggregate form, on the number of users and how they visit the site
  • The “feature cookies”, which allow the user to navigate according to a set of selected criteria (for example, the language, the selected products for the purchase) in order to improve the service

For the “profiling cookies “, vice versa, i.e. those designed to create user profiles and used in order to send advertisements in line with the preferences expressed by the same in the context of the network browsing, is required a prior consent of the user.

Which Cookies We Use

No personal data about users is acquired by the site.

The Jesuit Refugee Service/USA uses a third party, Pardot, to help us with the management of your experience and our website analytics. Cookies may be deleted  after your session.
