We collect personal information directly when you provide it to us, automatically as you navigate through the Website, or through other people when you use services associated with the Website. We collect your personal information when you provide it to us when you complete membership registration and buy or provide products or services on our Website, subscribe to a newsletter, email list, submit feedback, enter a contest, fill out a survey, or send us a communication.

General Use of Personal Data

• responding to specific requests;
• fulfilling legal obligations;
• for monitoring and analyzing statistics and measurements of customer satisfaction levels, as well as for sending promotional communications and newsletters (via post and phone, email and SMS, or via other automated tools) to contact details provided at the time the online registration form was completed;

The information gathered from the forms you fill out is used to provide you with information about products, services, news and events by sending newsletters, promotions and Website updates; and to allow you to purchase products or services.

We may also disclose information to partners who introduced you to SHG services in order to ensure they are properly compensated for their efforts. Lastly, we may disclose or report personal information in limited circumstances where we believe in good faith that disclosure is required under the law. For example, we may be required to disclose personal information to cooperate with regulators or law enforcement authorities, to comply with a legal process such as court order, subpoena, search warrant, or law enforcement request.

Personal Data Processing

Personal data is processed by automated systems, strictly correlated to its final use, for the time necessary to achieve the objectives for which the data was collected and in compliance with applicable law.

Personal data is processed at our operating offices and in any other places where the parties involved in the processing are located.

Both personal information and personal data have the same meaning in the context of this Privacy Policy.

Cookies Policy

SHG uses cookies to provide services which improve the clients’ browsing experience.

How we use cookies:

• We use anonymous browsing cookies, which are required to allow the user to correctly browse SHG’s Website, use all functions and access secure areas.
• We use analytical cookies to better understand how our users use the Website and to optimize and improve the Website, by making it more interesting and relevant for users.

This information is anonymous and is used only for statistical purposes.

We use anonymous commercial cookies to show you our advertising on other Websites, based on products you have viewed while browsing previously. These cookies are usually inserted by trusted third parties (such as Google through remarketing for display advertising); however, SHG does not permit such companies to collect personal information related to users. This means that anonymity is guaranteed and personal data will not be used by other Websites or marketing databases.

Cookie Policy: What are cookies and what are they used for?

Cookies were created in 1994 by Lou Montulli, an employee of Netscape, as a solution to the problems caused by the fact that websites could not identify computers that were accessing them. Cookies are labels assigned to devices, and one of their important functions is to tell the website whether two requests come from the same device or from two different devices. Cookies are saved to the hard drive or memory of the visitor’s computer. A cookie is a small file that is sent to the browser and saved on your device when you visit a Website. Cookies allow the Website to function correctly and improve its performance, as well as giving information to the Website owner for statistical or advertising purposes, mainly to personalize the user’s navigation experience by remembering preferences and navigation modes. Cookies can be linked to the device’s ID, notifying the website when the user returns. Many Websites, including this one, use them. Cookies tell us how often you visit each page, so that we know what information may be of interest to you. We are then able to offer you more content that is relevant to you and less that is unlikely to interest you. Cookies help the Website to be more efficient and to remember preferences and user names, register products and services, and personalize pages.

If you do not register with SHG and sign in, then the only thing that the server knows is that somebody with that cookie has returned to visit us. That’s all.

So what cookies does SHG use and for what purposes?

SHG uses various types of cookies and related technologies, each of which has a specific function. We give you this information as part of our commitment to notify you of recent changes to the law and to ensure clarity with regard to privacy issues on our Website.

To optimize the functioning of the website by personalizing it to your preferences and to ensure that the online purchasing system works correctly, your computer, tablet or mobile device should be set to accept cookies. Our guide to the use of cookies gives information about the type of cookies used and how to manage, control and disable them.

These cookies create a profile of the user in order to display adverts that match the user’s preferences or to improve the navigation experience. We use them to show you products that might interest you or products similar to ones you have already viewed. Third-party cookies are cookies used on our Website by our partner companies. They make it possible to retarget, i.e. offer you our products through affiliated Websites. We have no control over the information provided by third-party cookies and we do not have access to the information. It is controlled entirely by third parties as described in the privacy policies.
