Cookie Policy of materasso.top

materasso.top is an editorial project by Magister Mida LLC focused on comparing mattresses: we publish guides, rankings and reviews to help you choose the product that best suits your sleep. The site does not sell mattresses and does not process orders. Like any website, this one uses cookies and similar technologies: this page explains what they are, which ones are used, what they are for and how you can manage or disable them at any time.

This Cookie Policy should be read together with the privacy policy, which describes how we collect and process the personal data sent through the contact form, and with the terms of use, which define the editorial nature of the site and the limits of its content. The principle is always the same: no data is sold to third parties and no cookie is used to profile you for advertising purposes without your consent.

The document is divided into clear sections: what a cookie is and how it works, necessary technical cookies, third-party cookies and analytics tools, how to disable them in your browser, how long they are kept and which rights you can exercise. For specific questions you can write to us from the contact page. If instead you want to understand which products these guides compare, take a look at the full Luxury Relax review and the mattress buying guide.

Data controller

The controller of the personal data collected on materasso.top, including the information generated by cookies, is Magister Mida LLC, with registered office at 447 Broadway Street, New York, NY 10013, United States. Federal tax identification number (EIN): US36-5071848. For any question about cookies you can write to info@magistermidallc.com; the controller's website is magistermidallc.com.

Magister Mida LLC publishes the materasso.top domain and its content and decides the purposes and means of the processing. No data protection officer (DPO) has been appointed, because the processing does not fall within the cases provided for by law: every request concerning cookies, consent or personal data must be sent to the contact email address shown above. The controller complies with the GDPR for users located in the European Union and answers requests within the time limits provided for by law.

What cookies are

A cookie is a small text file that a website stores on your device (computer, tablet or smartphone) when you visit it. It contains a few pieces of information: a name, a value and an expiry date. It allows the website to remember something from one visit to the next, without having to collect the same information again. It is not a program, it cannot damage your device and it cannot access the other files stored on it.

Cookies are distinguished by who sets them and by how long they last. They are first-party when they are set by the domain you are visiting, in this case materasso.top; they are third-party when they are set by an external domain, for example when a page loads a map or a measurement tool. Session cookies disappear when you close the browser, while persistent cookies stay stored until their expiry date and are then deleted.

By function there are technical cookies, which are essential for the site to work, statistical cookies, which measure how the site is used in aggregate, and advertising cookies, which profile users to show them ads. This site uses only the first two: no advertising cookies, no profiling, no retargeting. Technologies such as the browser's local storage, for example localStorage and sessionStorage, also hold information and are therefore treated in the same way as a cookie.

Necessary technical cookies

Technical cookies are the ones that are indispensable for the site to work: without them the pages would not be served correctly, the form could not be sent and some preferences would be lost. For this reason they are exempt from consent, as provided by privacy rules and by the guidance of the supervisory authority. We never use them for purposes other than those strictly related to the operation of the site.

On materasso.top technical cookies keep the session active while you fill in the contact form, block automatic submissions thanks to a hidden anti-spam field (honeypot) and store the technical security logs, such as IP address, timestamp and requested page. These records allow us to prevent abuse and to diagnose malfunctions, on the basis of the controller's legitimate interest. None of these cookies is used for profiling or advertising.

If you disable technical cookies, browsing may be partially compromised: the form may not be sent, the anti-spam protection may stop working and some pages may not load as expected. For this reason we suggest disabling third-party cookies rather than the strictly necessary ones.

Third-party cookies and analytics tools

These resources are loaded from external domains and may set third-party cookies, that is cookies we do not control directly but that are managed by the provider of the service.

Google Analytics 4. To understand which guides readers find most useful we use Google Analytics 4, Google's analytics tool. It collects data in aggregate form, such as pages visited, traffic sources and device type, and sets statistical cookies whose names start with "_ga". As stated in the privacy policy, statistical cookies are only set after your prior consent: if you do not give it, they are not used. The data are processed by Google under the Google Analytics terms of service and we use them exclusively to improve the editorial content of the site.

Google Maps. Some pages show the location on a Google map embedded in the page: when it loads, your browser contacts Google's servers and transmits technical data such as the IP address, and Google may set third-party cookies. We show the map only to indicate the location of the office, which also appears on the contact page.

External links. Links to third-party sites, such as luxuryrelax.it or our social profiles, are ordinary links: no cookie is set until you click them. Once the third-party site is open, its own privacy policy and settings apply.

We do not use third-party advertising cookies, advertising networks or remarketing tools. If we introduce new tools in the future, we will update this page and ask for separate consent where necessary.

How to disable cookies in your browser

You can manage, block or delete cookies at any time from your browser settings. Instructions differ slightly from one browser to another; here are the most widely used ones.

Google Chrome: open the three-dot menu, go to Settings, then Privacy and security, Site settings, Cookies and other site data. You can block third-party cookies, prevent all sites from saving new ones and delete the ones already stored.

Mozilla Firefox: open the menu, choose Settings, then Privacy & Security, Cookies and Site Data and Manage Data, where you find the full list and can delete cookies individually.

Apple Safari: on Mac open Safari, then Settings, Privacy and Manage Website Data; on iPhone and iPad open Settings, then Safari, Privacy & Security.

Microsoft Edge: open the three-dot menu, go to Settings, Cookies and site permissions and finally Manage and delete cookies and site data.

To delete stored cookies in bulk, all major browsers offer a clear-browsing-data window, reachable with the keyboard shortcut Control plus Shift plus Delete. Select the option for cookies. Please note that deleting cookies also removes the consent choices you have already made and any saved preferences. Disabling all cookies instead may break the operation of some websites, materasso.top included.

Storage and management of consent

Every cookie has a lifetime: session cookies are deleted when you close the browser, persistent cookies remain for the set period and then expire and are removed automatically. This site does not use profiling cookies and keeps no profiling record, because it has no such purpose.

Your cookie choices are managed by the browser. When you delete materasso.top cookies you also delete the consent you have already given: on your next visit you will be asked again whether you allow analytics tools. You can change your mind at any time, because withdrawing consent is the same as deleting the corresponding cookies, which stop being set from that moment on.

This page may be updated to reflect legal or technical changes; the version published on this page is the one in force. The pages of the site remain reachable from the home page, while the service references are listed in the terms and conditions.

User rights

You have the right to exercise at any time the rights provided for in Articles 15 to 21 of the GDPR, including in relation to the information generated by cookies. In particular you may request access to your data and information about the processing, rectification of inaccurate data, erasure, restriction of processing, objection, data portability in a structured format, and withdrawal of consent at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before the withdrawal.

To exercise these rights write to info@magistermidallc.com: we will answer within the time limits provided for by law. You may also lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority: in Italy, the Garante per la protezione dei dati personali, at garanteprivacy.it.

The controller is established in the United States, so the processing may involve a transfer of data to a third country. In that case we rely on appropriate safeguards provided for by the GDPR, such as the standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission. All your rights remain valid, including the right to ask for information about the safeguards applied to the transfer by writing to the contact email address.
