Information on the extended cookie policy
We use cookies to make our site simpler and more intuitive. The data collected through cookies is used to make the browsing experience more pleasant and efficient in the future.
What are cookies ?
Cookies are small text files sent from the site to the data subject's terminal (usually to the browser), where they are stored before being retransmitted to the site during the next visit of the same user. 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 delegated to other technologies. In this document, the term “cookie” refers to both cookies themselves and all similar technologies.
Type of cookies
Cookies can be first party or third party, where "first party" refers to cookies that point to the site as the domain, while "third party" refers to cookies linked to external domains.
Third-party cookies are necessarily installed by a third party, always defined as “third party”, not managed by the site. These subjects may also set first-party cookies, saving their cookies to the site domain.
Another type of cookie is the so-called “Flash Cookie” (Local Shared Objects), used in Adobe Flash Player to deliver certain content, such as video clips or animations, in order to remember settings and preferences. Flash cookies are stored on the device, but are managed through an interface different from that provided by the browser used.
Nature of cookies
Concerning the nature of cookies, there are different types:
Technical cookies
Technical cookies are those used for the sole purpose of "carrying out the transmission of a communication on 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 this service. (see art. 122, paragraph 1, of the Code).
They are not used for any other purpose and are normally installed directly by the website owner or manager.
They can be divided into:
Navigation or session cookies, which guarantee normal navigation and use of the website (for example allowing you to make a purchase or authenticate yourself to access restricted areas); they are in fact necessary for the proper functioning of the site;
Analytical cookies, similar to technical cookies when used directly by the site manager to collect information, in aggregate form, on the number of users and the way in which they visit the site itself, in order to improve the site performance;
Functionality cookies, which allow the user to navigate according to a series of selected criteria (e.g. language, products selected for purchase) in order to improve the service provided to the user. The installation of these cookies does not require the prior consent of users (more information in the Cookie Management paragraph below).
Profiling cookies
Profiling cookies aim to create profiles relating to the user and are used to send advertising messages based on the preferences expressed by the user when browsing the Internet.
The consent of the interested party is required for the use of profiling cookies. In accordance with the provision (more information in the Cookie Management paragraph below), the user can authorize or deny consent to the installation of cookies through the options provided in the “Cookie Management” section.
In the case of third-party cookies, the site does not have direct control over individual cookies and cannot control them (it cannot directly install or delete them). However, you can manage these cookies via your browser settings (follow the instructions below), or the sites indicated in the “Cookie management” section.
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 cookies (session cookies): they are used to store temporary information, allow actions performed during a specific session to be linked and are deleted from the computer when the browser is closed;
• Permanent (persistent cookies): they are used to store information, for example login name and password, to avoid the user having to re-enter them each time they visit a specific site. These remain stored on your computer even after you close your browser.
Cookie management
