Specifically, such information includes, for example, IP addresses, domain names of computers used by users/visitors who connect to the site, browsers used, etc.

Cookie Policy.

What are cookies and why do we use them?

Cookies are small strings of text sent by a Web server to the user's browser when the user accesses the website for the first time. Cookies are then stored on the user’s computer, tablet or smartphone and subsequently retransmitted to the server upon each subsequent connection to the site so as to provide the Web server with information regarding the user’s use of the site. The purpose is to simplify some online procedures such as access to reserved or personalized areas of websites.

Cookies may be classified by:

• duration: session or persistent cookies;
• origin: first-party or third-party cookies;
• purpose: necessary (or technical), statistical or marketing (profiling) cookies.

Specifically, cookies that expire when the browser is closed or that have a limited duration are classified as session cookies. Cookies that instead are stored on the device for a longer period or in a permanent manner are identified as persistent cookies.

The distinction by origin refers to the website or domain that installs the cookies: cookies installed by the website visited are termed first-party cookies, whereas those installed by sites other than that visited by the user are third-party cookies.
Based on the purposes for which they are used, cookies may be broken down into necessary, statistical and marketing cookies.

Types of cookies:

This website is analyzed with a cookie scanning tool to keep a list as accurate as possible. The cookies that can be detected are classified into the following categories:

• Necessary cookies: necessary cookies help to make a website usable by enabling basic functions such as page navigation and access to protected areas of the website. The website cannot function properly without these cookies.

• Preference cookies: they allow, in the event that the interested party has provided explicit and informed consent, for a website to remember information that influences the way the site behaves or presents itself, such as the preferred language or the region to which the user belongs.

• Statistical cookies: they help, in the event that the interested party has provided explicit and informed consent, to understand how users interact with the sites by collecting and transmitting information anonymously.

• Marketing and profiling cookies: they are used to monitor users on websites, in the event that the interested party has provided explicit and informed consent. The intent is to display ads that are relevant and engaging for the individual user.

  • they are used solely to produce aggregate statistics and in relation to a single site or a single mobile application;

  • for those of third parties, at least the fourth component of the IP address is masked;

  • third parties refrain from combining these analytics cookies with other processing (customer files or statistics of visits to other sites, for example) or from transmitting them to third parties.

• Functionality cookies. They allow the user to browse according to a series of selected criteria (for example, the language) in order to provide the user with a better browsing experience.
