COOKIES

  1. What are Cookies?

Cookies are small text strings that the sites visited by the user send to their terminal (usually the browser), where they are stored before being re-transmitted to the same sites at the next visit of the same user. While browsing a site, the user may also receive cookies on their terminal that are sent by different sites or web servers (so-called “third party”), on which some elements (such as, for example, images, maps, sounds, links to specific pages in other domains) present on the same site that the user is visiting may reside. Cookies, usually present in users’ browsers in very large numbers and sometimes even with characteristics of wide temporal persistence, are used for different purposes: execution of computer authentication, session monitoring, storage of information on specific configurations concerning users who access the server, etc.

  1. What are the main types of Cookies?

For the purposes of this provision, two categories of cookies are therefore identified: “technical” cookies and “profiling” cookies.

  1. Technical Cookies. Technical cookies are those used for the sole purpose of “carrying out the transmission of a communication over an electronic communications network, or as strictly necessary for the provider of an information society service explicitly requested by the subscriber or user to provide this service”. They are not used for other purposes and are usually installed directly by the owner or manager of the website. They are divided into navigation or session cookies, and allow normal navigation and use of the website (such as purchases or accesses); analytics cookies, like technical cookies if used directly by the site manager to collect information on the number of users and how they visit the site; functionality cookies, which allow the user to browse according to a series of selected features and options (such as the language, products selected for purchase) in order to improve the service provided. To install these cookies, the user’s prior consent is not required.
  2. Profiling cookies. Profiling cookies are used to create user profiles and are used to send advertising messages based on the preferences expressed by the user while surfing the net. Since they are quite invasive in the private sphere of users, the European and Italian legislation provides that the user must be informed about the use of the same and thus express their consent. Our website does not use specific cookies aimed at profiling the user.

Session and Persistent Cookies.

Session Cookies are limited to your current browser session. These cookies are deleted when the browser is closed. Nothing is stored on your computer beyond the time of use of the website.

Persistent Cookies, which are used to maintain the information that is used in the period between accesses to the website, or used for technical purposes and to improve navigation on the website. This data allows websites to recognise that you are a known user or visitor and adapt accordingly. “Persistent” cookies have a duration that is set by the website and which can vary from a few minutes to several years. Our website does not use this type of cookies. However, the anti-tracking setting of any browser does not invalidate consultation of our website.

First-party and third-party cookies It is required to take into account the different subject that installs cookies on the user’s terminal, depending on whether it is the same manager of the website that the user is visiting (so-called “first party”) or a different website that installs cookies via the former (so-called “third party”). First-party cookies are created and readable by the website that created them. Third-party cookies, on the other hand, are created and readable by domains outside the website and whose data are stored at the third party subject’s premises. This website uses first-party cookies of a technical nature; therefore, as mentioned, consent is not required, but only this document is.
