Last updated: 10 January 2026

This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are and how they are used on secretzone.it (the “Website”).

1. What Cookies Are

Cookies are small text files that websites send to your device while you browse. They can be:

• strictly necessary/technical (essential for the Website to function);
• analytics;
• marketing/profiling (e.g., remarketing).

2. Consent Management on This Website

On your first visit, a banner allows you to:

• Accept all non-essential cookies;
• Reject all non-essential cookies;
• Customize your preferences by category.

The Website does not activate “Analytics” and “Marketing” cookies/technologies before you make your choice.

You can change your preferences at any time by clicking “Manage cookies” (if available in the footer or on the page).
Note: consent is not collected through simple page scrolling.

3. Cookie Categories and Tracking Technologies

3.1 Strictly Necessary (Always Active)

These are required for the Website to work and do not require consent. Examples:

• storing your cookie preference choice (e.g., saving preferences);
• essential functionality and security.

Retention: session or as technically necessary.

3.2 Analytics (Only With Consent) – Google Analytics 4 (GA4)

If you enable “Analytics”, the Website uses Google Analytics 4 to measure Website usage in a statistical form.

Typical cookies (may vary over time):

• _ga (often up to 2 years)
• _ga_* (often up to 2 years)

Purpose: traffic measurement and performance analytics.

3.3 Marketing (Only With Consent) – Google Ads

If you enable “Marketing”, the Website uses Google Ads for campaign measurement and, if configured, remarketing.

Typical cookies (may vary over time):

• _gcl_au (often up to 3 months)
• _gcl_aw, _gcl_dc (often up to 3 months)
• cookies on Google/DoubleClick domains (e.g., IDE, test_cookie, etc., variable duration)

Purpose: conversion measurement, advertising and (if enabled) remarketing/profiling.

Note: third-party cookie names and durations can change over time. The list above is indicative of cookies commonly associated with GA4 and Google Ads.
