Cookies Policy

Cookies and beer – an unexpected pairing, right? As strange as it may sound, we actually use cookies and similar technologies to personalize and enhance your experience while using our website. This document explains what these technologies are (and not the chocolate chip cookies you may be thinking of), why we use them, and the rights you have to control how we use them.

This cookie policy is part of our privacy policy, which you can view for more information on how we handle your data. If you continue browsing the site without changing your settings, we will assume that you agree to receive all cookies. However, you can modify your cookie settings at any time by clicking here.

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device that uniquely identify it. Each of your devices has different cookie settings. Cookies cannot be used to launch programs or install viruses on your device. If you want to learn more about cookies, please visit www.allaboutcookies.org.

Cookies may be placed by us (first-party cookies) or by other selected companies that place cookies on our site to provide features or functionality on or through the website you are using, such as advertising, interactive content, and analytics (third-party cookies). Third-party companies that set these cookies may recognize your device when it visits our website as well as other websites or services. These providers are bound by confidentiality clauses to limit their use and collection of personal data. However, please note that we do not control these third-party cookies, and we encourage you to consult the privacy policies of these third-party companies.

2. Why do we use cookies and other tracking technologies?

We use cookies and third-party cookies for several reasons. Some cookies are required for technical reasons to ensure the proper functioning of our website; these are called “strictly necessary” cookies. Other cookies allow us and the third-party companies we work with to identify and target the interests of visitors to our website; these are called “performance” and “functionality” cookies. For example, we use cookies to tailor the content and information we send you or display to you. This allows us to offer you a personalized experience when you interact with our website and to improve the functionality of our services. Finally, third-party companies use cookies via our website for advertising, analytics, and other purposes. More details are provided below.

Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies are essential to provide you with the services available on our website and to use certain of its features, such as tracking navigation between pages to help you return to various sections, signing up for a newsletter, and enhancing site security when you submit a form.

Since these cookies are strictly necessary for the proper functioning of the site, you cannot refuse them without affecting the way our website functions. You can block or delete them by changing your browser settings, as described in “How can I control cookies?”.

Performance and functionality cookies

These cookies are intended to improve the performance and functionality of our website but are not essential to its use. Performance cookies help us understand how people use our website to make it better, such as testing designs to improve its usability or troubleshooting issues to ensure it works correctly. Functionality cookies help us personalize our site for you, such as remembering your preferences and settings. Without these cookies, some features may no longer be available.

Analytical cookies

These cookies collect information, used in aggregate form, to help us understand how our website is used or to see if our marketing campaigns are effective, allowing us to tailor them to the tastes of our customers and visitors.

Other tracking technologies

Our third-party partners and we may occasionally use similar technologies, such as web beacons, invisible pixels, and other tracking technologies. These are small graphic files containing a unique identifier that allows us to know if someone has visited our website or, in the case of web beacons, has opened an email sent by us. This allows us, for example, to monitor the browsing habits of our website users, to know if you came to our website from a digital advertisement displayed on a third-party website, to provide you with targeted advertisements for you and others who are similar to you, to improve site performance, and to measure the success of marketing campaigns. You may not always be able to reject or specifically disable these tracking technologies, but in many cases, their proper functioning depends on these cookies; therefore, refusing cookies may impair the proper functioning of these technologies.

4. Online targeted advertising

The following targeted advertising tools are integrated into this website: Google Analytics and Facebook SDK for JavaScript. These tools use cookies, web beacons, invisible pixels, and other similar tracking technologies to analyze both statistical volume and personalized usage information from interactions with our website. We also work with one or more third parties (such as advertisers and ad networks) to deliver advertisements on our website and/or manage and serve ads on other sites.

These third parties collect and use certain information about your online activities on our website and/or other websites or mobile applications to determine your interests and show you targeted advertisements tailored to your browsing history and presumed interests (“interest-based advertising”). They may also use cookies or web beacons to collect information about your visits to our website and/or other sites to measure and verify the effectiveness of advertisements and our online marketing activities (for example, by collecting data on how many times you clicked on one of our ads). The information collected by these third parties does not include personal information that specifically identifies you (e.g., by reference to your name or email address).

5. How can I control cookies?

You can choose to accept or reject cookies.

Website cookie preferences: You can set your cookie preferences for our website by clicking here.

Browser settings: You can configure or modify your internet browser settings to accept or refuse cookies. If you choose to refuse cookies, you will still be able to use our website; however, your access to certain features and pages of our site may be restricted. Please click below for more information on how to disable and delete cookies in some commonly used browsers:

• Microsoft Internet Explorer
• Google Chrome
• Apple Safari
• Mozilla Firefox

Disabling interest-based advertising: Most advertising networks allow you to opt-out of interest-based advertising. If you would like more information, please visit www.youronlinechoices.eu.

Mobile advertising: You can opt out of certain of your mobile advertising identifiers being used for certain types of interest-based advertising, including those we use, by going to the settings of your Apple or Android mobile device and following the latest published instructions. If you choose this option, we will delete all data about you and cease data collection or tracking in the future. The random identifier previously assigned to you by us (or our partner companies) will also be deleted. This means that if you later decide to reverse this, we will not be able to restore your previous identifier, and for practical reasons, our system will treat you as a new user.
