(hereinafter the “Site”),  of which it is the data controller, different types of cookies, to provide you with services based on the purposes described and to collect information on your browsing experience and preferences, with your consent. For each cookie type, you will find the specified purpose for which they are collected and you can activate or deactivate them. Unless specified otherwise, these cookies can be disabled through the browser by following the instructions specified below.

“Cookies” are lines of computer text sent by the server of the VBC site generically on the browser that you use on your device (e.g. PC, smartphone or mobile phone, etc.). These cookies can also be set by different “third party” websites both to improve your navigation (in our case only for video viewing) and to take into account your preferences (e.g. fabric selection, search for nearby tailors). To respect your wishes, we therefore ask you to pay attention to your initial setting the first time you browse our Site.

Cookies can be communicated to data processors who deal with the management or maintenance of the Site.

Cookies processed directly by VBC will not be disseminated, nor will they be transferred outside the European Union.

Third-party cookies that are transferred abroad (United States) are those relating to YouTube. You can decide whether or not to consent to the data transfer. We urge users belonging to the European Economic Area and/or subject to the GDPR to be particularly careful before using YouTube as we believe that there may be several limitations to the rights normally recognised in Europe.

Currently, there is no adequate level of protection for data sent to the US under European law, even though the “Trans-Atlantic Data Privacy Framework” has already been announced with the European Commission. There is therefore a risk that your data, depending on whether the services that you use in order to use this site relating to the use of the YouTube service to view videos made available on our site, may be subject to access by US authorities for control and monitoring purposes and that you may not have effective legal remedies against such processing. By clicking on “Accept Cookies”, you agree that cookies may be used on our website by us and by this third-party provider (also in the USA).

With the exception of YouTube, transfers of data abroad by VBC may be based on an adequacy decision or on the standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission.

You will find the details of the information relating to each cookie including storage times in this statement.

In any case, you can make changes to the settings by disabling or deleting the individual categories of cookie by accessing the “Show details” item on the banner and/or on the section dedicated to cookies by clicking here.

For Chinese users browsing this site, the European General Data Protection Regulation applies in addition to that related to their browsing experience outlined in the Chinese privacy policy available here.

The details of the cookies that VBC collects are outlined below.

Technical cookies: these cookies are necessary for the Vitale Barberis Canonico sites to function and cannot be deactivated in your systems. They are usually set only in response to actions you have performed that amount to a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences, accessing or filling out the contact page or searching for a tailor in your vicinity. You can set your browser to warn you of these cookies or to block them, but this will imply that some parts of the site will not work correctly.

To continue browsing without selection of any other cookies “Cookie declaration” table implies handling of these technical cookies.

VBC uses software to analyse browsing data (Matomo Analytics) that is managed directly by its own data processor.

Personal data processed: tracking of user navigation on the site and usage data.



Analysis cookies: these cookies (Vitale Barberis Canonico S.p.A. uses Matomo Analytics) allow VBC to count visits and traffic sources so that it can measure and improve the performance of its Site. They help VBC to know which pages are the most and least popular and how visitors move around the site. Without your consent, VBC will not know when you have visited its site and will therefore not be able to monitor its performance.



You can manage your preferences for these cookies directly from your device settings, e.g. by preventing their use or storage.

In addition, where their use is based on consent, you may provide or withdraw such consent by setting your preferences within the cookie policy or by updating them via the consent preference table.

It is also possible, using the relevant features of the browser or device, to delete previously stored cookies, including those used to remember the User’s initial consent.

Other cookies in the local browser memory can be deleted by deleting the browsing history.

You can revoke your consent at any time by clicking here

Third party cookies: these cookies are collected by third parties (YouTube) at a statistical level when users view videos on the Vitale Barberis Canonico S.p.A. sites without any monitoring of their viewing behaviour. However, YouTube will be able to suggest to the user which next video to watch by proposing videos that it considers to be similar to the one that is just seen. If the user does not consent to the cookie set by YouTube, the user will not be able to see the video inserted by Vitale Barberis Canonico S.p.A. on their sites.

In fact, the third-party cookies used on this site come from YouTube, if you activate videos embedded in our web pages (https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=it).

This information may be transferred abroad by YouTube, therefore it is advisable that you first read their information before activating the video to consciously accept their specific terms and conditions, including their cookie policies, over which we have no control. (Furthermore, the providers of these services will always be able to update their policies independently).

If the user does not activate this cookie, the requested video will not be displayed.



Being persistent, it is stored by a web browser and remains valid until the set expiration date, unless it is deleted by the user before the expiration date following the instructions of the third parties (YouTube).

However, if this content is not displayed, no third-party cookies are installed on the user's device.

In any case, to deactivate this cookie once it has been activated to view the video, follow the instructions here: https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/32050?co=GENIE.Platform3DDesktop&hl=it

The cookies that Vitale Barberis Canonico S.p.A. processes through its sites have three purposes applicable to all the Vitale Barberis Canonico S.p.A. sites summarised above:

1. relating to the execution of measures related to contractual or pre-contractual obligations: technical and functional access to the site and navigation that allows the user to customize his/her choice (e.g. selected fabric or tailor closest to the place he/she indicated). These purposes correspond to technical cookies;


2. relating to user browsing analysis that makes it possible to collect useful statistics for improving the service (through the Matomo Analytics service) and subject to the user’s consent. These purposes correspond to the analysis cookies;


3. relating to the best use of the service requested by the user if he/she wishes to view a YouTube (third party) video present on our sites and with the user’s consent. These purposes correspond to profiling cookies.

The provision of the above data is optional with regard to analysis and profiling cookies. In the first case, Vitale Barberis Canonico S.p.A. could not improve its services because it would not be able to access statistical information relating to the user’s browsing. In the second case, the user will not be able to view the video from YouTube.

The processing of such data will take place with electronic tools with the use of software systems and will be communicated within the competent company areas and to the designated Data Processors.

As a data subject, you have the right to obtain confirmation of the existence or non-existence of personal data concerning you, even if not yet registered, and their communication in an intelligible form. You have the right to ask the company, at any time, to access your Personal Data, to request its rectification, cancellation or limitation of its processing, to oppose its processing and to request its portability to keep or transmit it to third parties.

You also have the right at any time to lodge a complaint with the “Garante per la protezione dei dati personali” as the supervisory authority in Italy.

The data controller is Vitale Barberis Canonico S.p.A., with registered office in Italy, Valdilana, locality Trivero, Frazione Pratrivero (BI), Via Diagonale, 296, REA no. 127914 VAT no. 01225120029.

By clicking on these links, the user has the possibility to interact directly with the accounts (social pages) of our company. The managers of the Social Networks to which the buttons refer are independent data controllers since they connect to the account that the user has with them (e.g. if the user has a Facebook account).

More information on the individual privacy policies of the Social Network platforms and on the methods of managing and deactivating the related cookies can be found on the Social Network platforms.
