Cookie Policy 🍪

Dear User,
Cookies are small text files sent from a website to the user's terminal (usually the browser), where they are stored before being retransmitted to the website upon the same user's next visit.
A cookie cannot retrieve any other data from the user's hard drive, transmit computer viruses, or capture email addresses.
Each cookie is unique to the user's web browser.
Some cookie functions may be performed by other technologies.
In this document, the term "cookie" refers both to cookies, strictly speaking, and to all similar technologies.

Cookies can be used to record information relating to preferences, such as the pages you browse or the downloads of files from the site, or other similar actions performed while browsing the site.

FIRST-PARTY OR THIRD-PARTY COOKIES

Cookies can be first-party or third-party:

• First Party: cookies developed by the owner of the site itself

• Third Party: cookies developed by third parties other than the site owner

NATURE OF COOKIES

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 to the extent strictly necessary for the provider of an information society service explicitly requested by the subscriber or user to provide such service" (see Article 122, paragraph 1, of the Code).
They are not used for other purposes and are typically installed directly by the website owner or operator.

They can be divided into:

• Browsing or session cookies: guarantee normal navigation and use of the website (allowing, for example, purchases or authentication to access restricted areas); they are necessary for the proper functioning of the site.

• Analytics cookies: similar to technical cookies when used directly by the site manager to collect information, in aggregate form, on the number of users and how they visit the site, in order to improve the site's performance.

• Functional cookies: allow the User to navigate based on selected criteria (for example, language, products selected for purchase, etc.) in order to improve the service provided. The installation of these cookies does not require the User's prior consent.

Profiling cookies

Profiling cookies are designed to create profiles relating to the User and are used to send advertising messages in line with the preferences expressed by the same while browsing the internet.

The use of profiling cookies requires the consent of the interested party.

Pursuant to provision no. 229 of 8 May 2014, the User must be able to authorize or deny consent to the installation of profiling cookies, if present.

In the case of third-party cookies, the site does not have direct control over individual cookies and cannot monitor them (neither directly installing them nor deleting them). Users can still manage these cookies through their browser settings (follow the instructions below) or through the sites listed in the "Cookie Management" section.

The User is therefore invited to check the relevant cookie policies on the Third Party websites.

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:

The systems used for this site may use both temporary and permanent cookies.
