What are cookies?

 

Cookies are small text files downloaded by a website on the user’s computer when the latter accesses the website, for the purpose of storing and/or carrying information. Cookies are sent by a web server (that is the computer on which the website is being executed) to the user’s browser (Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, etc.) and stored on the user’s computer. They are then sent back to the website at the user’s next visits.

 

Certain activities may not be carried out without cookies, which, in some cases are therefore strictly necessary. In other cases, the website uses cookies to make navigation easier or to enable users to receive the services they have specifically requested.

1. Technical session cookies: use of the so-called session cookies (that is those cookies that are not persistently stored on the user’s computer and disappear as the user closes the browser) is strictly limited to the transmission of session identifiers (consisting of random numbers generated by the server) required for the secure and effective browsing of the website and its applications. Use of the so-called session cookies allows us to avoid using other computer technologies that may be potentially prejudicial for the privacy of users during navigation and does not allow us to collect any personal data enabling us to identify users.They do not require your consent.

 

2. Analytical cookies: these cookies are installed to collect aggregate information of a primarily statistical nature (how long does a user remain on a web page, number of visitors, etc.).

a. First-party analytical cookies: these cookies are classed as technical cookies in that they are installed directly by the website that is being visited to improve usability. They do not require your consent.

 

b. Third-party analytical cookies: these cookies are created and installed by third-parties to analyse user navigation and compile statistics on website visits or to improve content offer, show similar products and position targeted ads on the web pages. This website uses Google Analytics. Google Analytics is a web analytics service provided by Google LLC (“Google”). Just like the other systems, Google Analytics uses cookies to enable the website to analyse how it is used by users. Information generated by cookies on how a website is used by users (therein including their IP addresses) is transmitted to and stored on Google’s servers in the United States. Google uses this information to track and analyse how a website is used, to compile reports on activity on the website and to provide other services regarding internet use. Google may transfer this information to a third party where this is imposed by law or where such third party processes the above information for and on behalf of Google. Google does not combine the user’s IP address with any other data that it may held. Users may reject these cookies by choosing the appropriate setting on their browser. This, however, could make it impossible to use all the functions available on the website. Since IP addresses are unhidden, use of these cookies requires your consent.

Third-party targeting cookies: these cookies are installed through the website by third parties in order to show personalised ads that are in line with the user’s preferences based on the information collected on the pages visited by the user (e.g.: pages visited on this website or other pages visited by the user). They can be divided into:

 

a. Ad targeting cookies: they create user profiles to show ads that are in line with preferences shown by the user during internet navigation;

 

b. Retargeting cookies: they show ads offering products that are similar to those for which an interest has already been shown by the user or allow to measure the effectiveness of an advertising campaign launched by us or by a third party;

 

c. Social cookies: this website also allows certain social networks (such as Facebook and Twitter) to install their own cookies using their plug-ins. These cookies are managed directly by such third parties and may also be used for the purpose of showing on other websites ads that are in line with your preferences.
