Cookie Policy

Types of cookies

Cookies are small text files that the sites visited by users send to their terminals, where they are stored before being re-transmitted to the same sites on the next visit. The cookies of the so-called "third parties" are, on the other hand, set by a website other than the one the user is visiting. This is because on each site there may be elements (images, maps, sounds, specific links to web pages of other domains, etc.) that reside on servers other than that of the site visited.

The term cookie refers both to cookies, properly speaking, and to all similar technologies. Cookies are used to access online services more quickly and to improve user navigation by monitoring sessions, storing user information, loading content more quickly, etc.

Cookies can be:

First party cookies: they are the proprietary cookies used by the owner of the site in order to allow the user to navigate more efficiently and / or to monitor the actions exercised by the same;

Third party cookies: cookies set by a site other than the one you are currently visiting in order to allow the user to navigate more efficiently and / or to monitor the actions exercised by the same.

Furthermore, different types of cookies are distinguished:

1. Technical Cookies: 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" ( art.122, paragraph 1, of the Privacy Code). Technical cookies include:

Session or navigation cookies: they are used to keep track of user activity on the network. They guarantee the normal navigation and use of the Site, allowing for example to browse more quickly, to make a purchase or to authenticate to access restricted areas, and are in fact necessary for its correct functioning.

Functionality cookies: allow the user to browse according to a series of selected criteria (for example, the language, the products selected for purchase) in order to improve the service provided.

2. First party analytical cookies: assimilated on a regulatory level to technical cookies if used directly by the owner of the Site without profiling the user but only to collect information, in aggregate and anonymous form, on the number of users and on how they visit the Site for statistical purposes and for improve the performance of the Site.

3. Third-party analytical cookies: are made available by third parties and are assimilated to technical cookies if the third parties do not carry out user profiling through the use of tools suitable for reducing the identifying power of cookies (for example, by masking significant portions of the IP address) and without crossing the information collected with others that they already have.

4. Profiling cookies: they are used to monitor the user's web browsing and create a profile of his habits.

First-party profiling cookies: installed by the site owner to create user profiles in order to send advertising messages in line with the preferences expressed while surfing the net. Given their particular invasiveness in the private sphere of users, European and Italian legislation requires the user to be adequately informed about their use, to express their consent and to notify the Privacy Guarantor.

Third party profiling cookies: used by third parties who access the information in clear text, therefore not in anonymous and aggregate mode, and cross them with other data already in their possession. The Site does not have direct control of individual third-party cookies and can neither install them directly nor delete them. The user is therefore invited to check the relevant cookie information on the third party website. For these cookies, the legislation provides that the user must be adequately informed on the use of the same, that he expresses his consent and that the person using the data is notified to the Privacy Guarantor.

For technical cookies, only the release of the Cookie Policy is required without the need to request consent.

Cookies installed

The cookies on this site are:

Technical cookies: they are necessary to make the Site usable, enabling basic functions such as page navigation and access to protected areas of the site. The website cannot function properly without these cookies. It is possible to change the browser settings to accept or reject this type of cookie. Please refer to the information provided by the specific browser used - see below.

Profiling cookies: these are statistical cookies that help to understand how visitors interact with the Site by collecting and transmitting information anonymously. Marketing cookies are used to track visitors across websites. The intent is to display relevant and engaging ads for the individual user and therefore those of greatest value for publishers and third party advertisers.

Unclassified cookies: are the cookies that are being classified, together with the individual cookie providers.

In relation to third-party cookies, these could carry out user profiling activities even without the knowledge of the Owner. For more information, we recommend that you carefully consult the privacy policies of the services listed. It is emphasized that third-party analytical cookies have reduced identification potential, and are aimed at monitoring the site by users to optimize the web platform and (analytical) statistics. The legal basis that legitimizes the processing of personal data for this purpose is to be found in the hypothesis provided for by art. 6 par. 1, lett. b) of the EU Regulation no. 679/2016, or to allow the user to use the requested service.

Duration of cookies

Cookies have a duration dictated by the expiration date or by a specific action such as closing the browser set at the time of installation. Cookies can be:

temporary or session: they are used to store temporary information, allow you to link the actions performed during a specific session and are removed from the computer when the browser is closed;

persistent: they are used to store information, such as the login name and password, in order to avoid the user having to type them again each time they visit a specific site. These remain stored on the computer even after closing the browser.

The personal data collected and processed as a result of browsing the Site will be kept for the entire period of delivery of the service and then immediately deleted. The technical and analytical cookies installed through the site are temporary and are automatically deleted afterwards 30 days from their installation.

Personal data sent autonomously by users through the tools on the site will be deleted after providing the requested service or replying to the same, within the maximum term of 30 days from the exhaustion of this activity, with the exception of those necessary for compliance with tax, accounting and administrative regulations or to fulfill other legal obligations and to document the activities carried out.
