Data controller: Patrick Terrein, Sentiero Chiropratica. Via Giorgio Washington 59, 20146 Milan, Italy. VAT 04127670133. sentierochiro@gmail.com.

For the processing of personal data in general, including data collected at the clinic and through the contact form, see the Privacy Policy.

1. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files that websites save on the device of the person visiting them. They keep the site working, remember preferences, or gather statistics on how the site is used. Alongside cookies, this site may use similar technologies such as the browser's local storage, which work in a comparable way.

2. Technical cookies (always active)

These are necessary for the site to work and do not require consent.

NameOriginPurposeDuration
sentiero-consent This site Stores your choice on the cookie banner, so you aren't asked again on every visit. Until manually cleared

Note: sentiero-consent is not strictly a cookie but a local storage entry, saved only in your browser and never transmitted to us or to third parties.

3. Measurement cookies (only with your consent)

These tools help us understand how the site is used: how many people visit, which pages they arrive from, what they read. They are not loaded until you press "Accept" on the banner: if you decline, or make no choice, none of these cookies is installed.

4. Embedded third-party services

Some pages embed content provided by third parties, which may set their own cookies when that content is loaded:

  • Google Maps (Contact page): map of the clinic's location. Provider: Google Ireland Ltd. The map loads only when you click to load it.
  • PracticeHub (Booking page): the online booking system, hosted on an external domain. When you book you are taken to their site, which applies its own notice.
  • FormSubmit (Contact page): the service that forwards messages sent through the contact form to our inbox.

5. How to change or withdraw consent

You can change your mind at any time:

Pressing the button clears your choice and brings the banner back, so you can accept or decline again. Alternatively you can delete cookies and site data from your browser settings, or disable Google Analytics by installing the opt-out add-on provided by Google.

6. Formal notice

This page describes in detail what the site actually loads. The cookie notice drafted and kept up to date through iubenda is available here: Cookie Policy (iubenda).

7. Updates

If we add new measurement tools in the future, this page will be updated before they are activated and consent will be requested again.
