1. WHAT ARE COOKIES?
Cookies are small text files sent by a website to the user’s terminal (usually to the browser), where they are stored and then retransmitted to the same website the next time the user visits it. A cookie cannot retrieve any other data from the user’s hard drive, transmit computer viruses, or acquire email addresses. Each cookie is unique to the user’s web browser. Some cookie functions may be carried out by other similar technologies. In this document, the term “cookie” refers both to cookies properly so called and to all similar technologies.
Cookies allow the recording of information related to the user’s preferences, such as the pages visited, files downloaded from our site, or other similar actions performed while browsing our website.
2. FIRST-PARTY OR THIRD-PARTY COOKIES
Cookies may be either first-party or third-party cookies. “First-party” cookies are those developed by the website owner itself, while “third-party” cookies are created by entities other than the website owner.
3. TYPES OF COOKIES
There are several types of cookies, depending on their nature:
Technical cookies
Technical cookies are used solely to carry out the transmission of a communication over an electronic communications network, or to the extent strictly necessary for the provider of an information society service explicitly requested by the subscriber or user to provide that service.
They are not used for other purposes and are usually installed directly by the website owner or operator. They can be divided into:
-
Browsing or session cookies: ensure normal browsing and use of the website (for example, allowing a purchase to be made or authentication to access restricted areas); they are essential for the website to function properly.
-
Analytics cookies: treated as technical cookies when used directly by the website operator to collect information, in aggregate form, on the number of users and how they visit the site, for the purpose of improving website performance.
-
Functionality cookies: allow the user to browse according to a set of selected criteria (e.g., language, selected products for purchase) in order to improve the service provided to the user.
The installation of such cookies does not require the user’s prior consent (more information in the “Cookie management” section below).
Profiling cookies
Profiling cookies are designed to create user profiles and are used to send advertising messages in line with the preferences shown by the user while browsing the web.
The use of profiling cookies requires the user’s consent. According to the Italian Data Protection Authority’s decision no. 229 of 8 May 2014, the user must be able to authorize or refuse the installation of profiling cookies whenever they are present.
In the case of third-party cookies, the site has no direct control over the individual cookies and cannot manage them (it can neither install nor delete them directly). However, users can manage these cookies through their browser settings (following the instructions provided below) or via the websites indicated in the “Cookie management” section. The user is therefore invited to check the website of each third party indicated below.
4. WHICH COOKIES ARE USED BY THIS WEBSITE?
a. Technical cookies
This website uses technical cookies, installed by the website itself in order to monitor its operation and enable efficient navigation.
Below are listed, for each technical cookie that may be used, its name, purpose, and type/duration.
These cookies cannot be disabled using the functions of this website, but they can be disabled at any time through your browser settings (as indicated below). However, disabling them may affect the optimal use of some areas of the site.
b. Performance and analytics cookies
Analytics cookies are also used to statistically analyze traffic on the site, count visits and page views, and allow the site owner—through estimates of numbers and browsing patterns—to improve its structure, navigation logic, and content, tailor it to users’ interests, speed up searches, and more.
Below are listed, for each analytics cookie used, its name, purpose, type/duration, and source.
c. Profiling cookies
Third-party profiling cookies
While browsing this website, users may receive third-party profiling cookies installed and managed by third parties in order to deliver advertising messages consistent with their browsing preferences. This occurs because, as mentioned above, the website may include elements residing on servers other than the one hosting the visited website. When third parties set cookies while you visit this website, they obtain information indicating that you have visited it.
More information on the use of these cookies is available via the links provided to the third parties’ websites below.
Refusing consent for third-party profiling cookies does not affect your ability to access the site.
Below we list the names of third-party cookies that may be installed through this site, their purpose, the third party responsible, and a link to their website.
In any case, users can manage their preferences for online behavioral advertising through the website www.youronlinechoices.com/it, which lists the main behavioral advertising providers. Through this site, users can disable or enable all companies, or adjust their preferences individually for each provider.
HOW TO DISABLE COOKIES
By default, almost all web browsers are set to automatically accept cookies. However, it is possible to change this default setting through the browser settings.
Disabling, blocking, or deleting cookies may, however, prevent optimal use of certain areas of the website, disable some services, and make navigation slower.
Cookie management settings depend on the browser used and are usually configured through the “Preferences,” “Tools,” or “Options” menu.
