Cookie Policy
01 — About This Cookie Policy
This Cookie Policy explains how Daniel Vision Lab uses cookies, local storage and similar technologies on danielvisionlab.com.
It explains what these technologies are, why they may be used, which categories may be activated, and how visitors can manage or withdraw their privacy choices.
This Cookie Policy should be read together with the Privacy Policy, which provides additional information about how personal data is collected, used, retained and protected.
Depending on their purpose, some technologies are strictly necessary for the operation and security of the website, while optional technologies are activated only after the appropriate consent has been obtained where required by applicable law.
02 — Data Controller
The Data Controller responsible for personal-data processing associated with this website is:
Daniel Balan — Daniel Vision Lab
VAT Number: IT04362281208

03 — What Are Cookies and Similar Technologies?
Cookies are small text files or similar pieces of information that may be stored on a visitor’s device when a website is accessed.
Cookies may support essential website functionality, maintain security, remember privacy choices, provide requested functionality, measure website performance, enable optional external media or, where applicable, support advertising and profiling technologies.
Similar technologies may include local storage, pixels, tags and comparable browser-based identifiers that perform functions similar to traditional cookies.
Session Cookies
Session cookies generally expire when the browser session ends.
Persistent Cookies
Persistent cookies remain on the visitor’s device for a defined period or until they are deleted.
First-Party and Third-Party Technologies
First-party technologies are set directly by Daniel Vision Lab or the website infrastructure. Third-party technologies may be set or accessed by external service providers whose functionality is integrated into the website.
04 — Categories of Technologies Used
Strictly Necessary
Strictly necessary technologies are required for the website to operate correctly, securely and reliably.
They may be used for website security, fraud and abuse prevention, essential navigation, session management, delivery of functionality explicitly requested by the visitor, storage of privacy preferences and management of required access controls.
Where permitted by applicable law, strictly necessary technologies may operate without consent.
Analytics
Analytics technologies may be used to understand how visitors interact with the website and to evaluate website performance.
Where consent is required, Analytics technologies remain disabled until the visitor actively enables the Analytics category.
Functional Media
Functional Media technologies may be required to display optional third-party content or interactive services such as embedded media, external widgets or comparable functionality.
Where consent is required, these services remain blocked until the visitor enables the relevant category.
Marketing
Marketing technologies may be used, where applicable, for advertising, campaign measurement, personalised advertising, profiling, behavioural analysis or cross-site measurement.
Where applicable law requires consent, Marketing technologies remain disabled by default and are activated only after the visitor has expressly enabled the Marketing category.
05 — Consent and Privacy Choices
Where applicable law requires consent, non-essential technologies are disabled before consent is provided.
Through the website’s privacy interface, visitors may be able to:
- Accept optional technologies
- Reject non-essential technologies
- Enable individual categories
- Disable individual categories
- Save customised privacy preferences
Strictly necessary technologies remain enabled where they are required for essential website functionality, security or storage of the visitor’s privacy choice.
Your choice matters: continuing to browse, scrolling, inactivity or simply closing the privacy interface does not by itself constitute consent to optional cookies or tracking technologies where consent is legally required.
06 — Changing or Withdrawing Consent
Visitors may change or withdraw their privacy choices at any time by reopening the website’s Privacy Choices or cookie preference interface.
Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before consent was withdrawn.
Visitors may also delete cookies already stored on their device through their browser settings.
07 — Privacy Preference Storage
Daniel Vision Lab may use a strictly necessary first-party technical mechanism to remember the visitor’s privacy choices.
The privacy preference may be retained for approximately 180 days, after which the website may ask the visitor to express their preferences again.
A new request for consent may also be presented earlier where the website’s tracking technologies materially change, new providers or purposes are introduced, applicable law requires renewed consent, or the existing preference can no longer be reliably recognised.
08 — Adult Access Technology
Certain areas of Daniel Vision Lab, including the Nude Art portfolio, may be intended exclusively for adults.
A strictly necessary first-party technical mechanism may be used to remember that the visitor has completed the website’s adult-access confirmation.
This mechanism is intended only to manage access to the relevant content and does not, by itself, constitute identity verification, biometric processing or profiling.
09 — Cookie and Technology Inventory
The technologies used by Daniel Vision Lab may change as website functionality, security systems or third-party services are updated.
The website may use the following general categories:
- Strictly Necessary: security, essential functionality, privacy-choice storage and required access controls.
- Analytics: website statistics, usage and performance analysis.
- Functional Media: optional external media or interactive third-party services.
- Marketing: advertising, profiling or cross-site measurement where applicable.
The actual technical configuration of the website prevails over generic descriptions. Daniel Vision Lab periodically reviews the technologies in use so that this Cookie Policy and the privacy preference interface remain aligned with the website.
10 — Third-Party Technologies
Certain optional website features may rely on external service providers.
When an optional third-party service is activated, the relevant provider may independently receive or process technical information such as IP address, browser and device information, date and time of access, the page being viewed and interactions with the external content.
Where legally required, third-party technologies capable of non-essential storage or tracking remain disabled until the visitor has provided the relevant consent.
11 — Analytics and Measurement
Daniel Vision Lab may use analytics or measurement technologies to understand website traffic, performance and visitor interactions.
Where these technologies are not strictly necessary and applicable law requires consent, they are activated only after the visitor has enabled the relevant category.
Analytics data may be processed by external service providers where such services are actually implemented.
12 — Functional Media and Embedded Content
The website may contain links, embedded features or external content connected to third-party platforms, including social-media or media services.
Loading third-party content may allow the relevant provider to process technical information according to its own privacy documentation.
Where required, optional external media remains blocked until the visitor enables the relevant privacy category.
13 — Marketing and Profiling
Where implemented, Marketing technologies may be used for advertising, campaign measurement, personalised content, behavioural analysis, profiling or similar promotional purposes.
These technologies are not treated as strictly necessary and remain disabled until valid consent has been obtained where consent is required.
14 — Browser Controls
Most modern browsers allow visitors to manage cookies directly through privacy and security settings.
Depending on the browser, visitors may be able to:
- View stored cookies
- Delete individual or all cookies
- Block cookies
- Restrict third-party cookies
- Configure automatic deletion
- Modify site-specific permissions
Blocking all cookies may interfere with essential website functionality. Browser settings operate independently from the privacy controls provided directly by Daniel Vision Lab.
15 — Global Privacy Control
Where technically supported and legally relevant, Daniel Vision Lab may recognise browser-based privacy signals such as Global Privacy Control (GPC).
Where an applicable GPC signal is detected, marketing, sale or sharing-related technologies may remain disabled in accordance with the website’s technical configuration and applicable requirements.
16 — International Data Transfers
Certain technology providers may process information outside Italy or outside the European Economic Area.
Where personal data is transferred internationally and the GDPR applies, an appropriate transfer mechanism recognised under applicable data-protection law will be relied upon where required.
Depending on the provider and destination, safeguards may include an adequacy decision, Standard Contractual Clauses or another lawful transfer mechanism permitted under the GDPR.
17 — Personal Data and Your Rights
Cookies and similar identifiers do not always constitute personal data. However, they may become personal data where they can be associated with an identifiable individual or combined with other information.
Where cookie-related information constitutes personal data and the GDPR applies, individuals may have rights including:
- Access to personal data
- Correction of inaccurate personal data
- Deletion where legally available
- Restriction of processing
- Objection to certain processing
- Data portability where applicable
- Withdrawal of consent at any time
- The right to lodge a complaint with a competent supervisory authority
Further information is available in the Daniel Vision Lab Privacy Policy.
18 — European Union and Italy
For visitors in the European Union and European Economic Area, cookie-related processing may be subject to the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the applicable rules governing electronic communications and access to terminal equipment.
For visitors in Italy, the applicable framework includes Article 122 of the Italian Privacy Code and the guidance issued by the Garante per la protezione dei dati personali.
Where consent is required, it must be freely given, specific, informed and unambiguous and must be capable of being withdrawn.
19 — International Visitors
Daniel Vision Lab may be accessed by visitors from different countries and jurisdictions.
Where local law provides additional protections or requires specific consent mechanisms, those mandatory requirements may apply to the relevant visitor or processing activity.
Nothing in this Cookie Policy is intended to limit mandatory rights granted to individuals under applicable law.
20 — Changes to This Cookie Policy
This Cookie Policy may be updated where necessary to reflect changes to website technologies, service providers, cookie categories, privacy practices or applicable legal and regulatory requirements.
The date shown at the beginning of this policy indicates when the current version was most recently reviewed or updated.
Where required by law, material changes affecting consent may result in the visitor being asked to provide a new privacy choice.
