Cookie policy
What this site stores in your browser, why, and how to change your choice.
This policy explains how Avus Security S.R.L. (Via Borgogna 2, 20122 Milano (MI), Italy, VAT 14736060964) uses cookies and similar technologies on this website, in line with the GDPR, the Italian Personal Data Protection Code and the Garante's cookie guidelines. For how we handle personal data more generally, see our privacy policy.
What cookies are
Cookies are small text files a website stores in your browser. Similar technologies, such as your browser's local storage, work in a comparable way. Some are needed for a site to work. Others, such as analytics cookies, are optional and are only set if you agree.
Your choice
When you first visit, we ask whether you accept analytics cookies. Rejecting is as easy as accepting, and closing the banner without choosing counts as rejecting. Until you accept, no analytics cookies are set and neither Google Analytics nor Microsoft Clarity is loaded at all.
We remember your choice for 6 months, then ask again. You can change it at any time:
If you withdraw consent, we delete the analytics cookies this site set. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings.

Analytics, only with your consent
We use Google Analytics 4, provided by Google Ireland Limited, to understand how visitors use the site, such as which pages are read and how people arrive, so we can improve it. Google signals and advertising features are turned off, and Google Analytics 4 does not log or store full IP addresses. Data may be transferred to the United States under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework. Read Google's privacy policy.
We also use Microsoft Clarity, provided by Microsoft Ireland Operations Limited, to see how visitors interact with our pages through heatmaps and session replays, such as where people click and how far they scroll. Clarity masks text you type into forms, and we do not use it for advertising. Data may be transferred to the United States under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework. Read the Microsoft privacy statement.
