COOKIES POLICY

Cookies are small text files sent from the website to the User’s computer (usually to the browser), where they are stored before being re-transmitted to the site by the same User on their next visit. A cookie cannot retrieve any other data from the User’s hard disk nor transmit computer viruses or acquire email addresses. Each cookie is unique to the User’s web browser. Some of the functions of cookies can be delegated to other technologies. In this document, the term ‘cookie’ refers to both cookies and to all similar technologies.
Through cookies, it is possible to record information pertaining to user preferences, such as the pages browsed or the download of files from our website or other similar actions carried out when navigating our site.

FIRST- OR THIRD-PARTY COOKIES

Cookies can be first- or third-party, where “first-party” refers to cookies developed by the owner of the website and “third-party” means cookies developed by extraneous subjects with respect to the owner of the site.

NATURE OF THE COOKIES

Regarding the nature of cookies, there are different types:

Technical cookies

Technical cookies are those used for the sole purpose of sending messages over an electronic communications network, to the extent strictly necessary for the provider of a company service, with the information explicitly requested by the subscriber or User to provide this service (see Article 122, paragraph 1, of the Code). They are not used for other purposes and are normally installed directly by the controller or operator of the website. They can be divided into:
– navigation or session cookies, which guarantee the normal navigation and use of the website (allowing, for example, purchase to be made or authentication to access restricted areas), being necessary for the proper functioning of the website;
– analytics cookies, which are 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 website, serving to improve the performance of the website;
– functional cookies, which 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. For the installation of such cookies, the User’s prior consent is not required (more information can be found in the paragraph on managing cookies below).

Profiling cookies

Profiling cookies are aimed at creating profiles related to the User and are used in order to send advertising messages in line with the preferences expressed by the same in the context of browsing the net. The Data Subject’s consent is required for the use of profiling cookies. In accordance with Provision no. 229 dated 8th May 2014, the User must be able to give or deny consent to the installation of profiling cookies, if present.
In the case of third-party cookies, the website has no direct control of individual cookies (hence, cannot install them directly nor delete them). However, Users can manage these cookies through their browser settings (following the instructions below) or the websites listed in the “Cookie Management” section.
The User is therefore invited to check on the third-party website indicated below.

COOKIE DURATION

Cookies have a duration dictated by their expiration date (or by a specific action, such as closing the browser) set at the time of installation. Cookies may be:
1. Temporary or Session Cookies – these are used to file temporary information, allow Users to connect the actions performed during a specific session and are removed from the computer when the browser is closed;
2. Permanent or Persistent Cookies – these are used to store information, such as the login name and password, so that the User does not have to enter such details again each time they visit a specific website. These remain stored on the computer even after closing the browser.
Once the connection to this website is terminated, session cookies are not stored. The computer systems employed for this website utilise temporary cookies to track the browsing behaviour of Users within the website.

COOKIE MANAGEMENT

Users can disable cookies on websites by downloading specific software such as Ghostery (https://www.ghostery.com) for their browser and by disabling the use of individual cookies. Alternatively, it is possible to activate the “anonymous browsing” mode – a function that allows Users to browse without leaving trace of any browsing data in the browser. This function merely ensures that browsing data is not stored in the browser.
Otherwise, cookies can be disabled/deleted by accessing the configuration panel of the browser.

ACCEPTANCE AND WAIVER OF THE USE OF COOKIES

By continuing to browse this website, closing the information panel, clicking on any part of the page or scrolling to highlight further content, the User accepts the Cookie Policy and cookies will be set and collated. In the event of non-acceptance of cookies by abandoning navigation, any cookies already registered in the User’s browser shall remain registered therein but will no longer be read or used by us until any subsequent and eventual acceptance of the Policy. Users always have the option to remove these cookies at any time through the aforementioned methods.
