Cookie Policy
What are cookies
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer while you browse a website or use a web application.
Such files contain various types of information designed to enrich the functionality of a website (such as for online purchases or customizing messages in accordance with one’s preferences), to collect statistical data and, in general, to improve the user browsing experience.
Cookies can not only be installed by the manager of the website visited by the user (first party cookies), but also by a different website that installs cookies via the first website (third party cookies) and is capable of recognizing them. This occurs because the visited website can host elements (images, maps, sounds, specific links to pages of other domains, etc.) that lie on different servers from the one on which it is hosted.
Based on their purpose, the cookies can be divided into technical cookies and profiling cookies.
Technical cookies are used to send a communication on a digital communication network or, to the extent strictly necessary, to the supplier of a service who has been explicitly asked by the subscriber or user to provide said service. According to the article 122, paragraph 1 of the Privacy Act, the users’ consent is not required for the use of technical cookies.
The technical cookies can also include the so-called analytics cookies when these are used directly by the website manager to collect information, in aggregated form, about the number of users and how these visit the website. These cookies allow the owners and/or managers of the websites to understand how the users interact with the contents of the website in order to allow the optimization of these contents.
Profiling cookies are used to track the user’s browsing, analyze user behavior for marketing purposes and create user profiles based on their tastes, habits, choices, etc. in order to send targeted advertising messages with reference to the user’s interests and in line with the preferences expressed by the latter when browsing online. These cookies can only be installed on the user’s terminal if the latter has expressed their consent using the simplified methods indicated in the Provision. Based on their duration, cookies can be classed as persistent cookies, which remain memorized until their expiry on the user’s device, unless the latter removes them, and session cookies, which are not persistently memorized on the user’s device and disappear when the browser is closed.
