Cookie Policy<\/h1>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Cookies are small text files that the visited websites send to the terminal (PC, tablet, smartphone or notebook), where they are stored and later re-transmitted to those websites on subsequent visits. There are different cookies that contain different information (e.g. authentication of computer information, session monitoring, storing preferences for sending advertising messages, etc.). Each cookie in turn contains different data such as, for example, the name of its server of origin, a numerical identifier, etc..
This data may remain on the user\u2019s device for different periods of time, such as a browser session, a few hours, several days or longer times.<\/p>

They are used to perform computer authentication, session monitoring and to store information about sites. While browsing a site, the user may also receive cookies on their terminal that are sent from different websites or servers (so called \u201cthird parties\u201d), which may contain certain elements (such as, for example, images, maps, sounds, specific links to pages on other domains) found on the website that the user is visiting.
The so-called \u201cshort message\u201d (small banners with the wording, \u201cBy using this website, you consent to our use of cookies\u201d, or other similar expressions) was introduced by the Italian Data Protection Authority with the regulation that can be examined on the following Internet page: www.garanteprivacy.it in order to obtain the consent of the user visiting the website to the sending of cookies (either directly by the site owner or by third-party subjects through so-called \u201cthird-party cookies\u201d), where the latter can be basically grouped into two macro-categories which are:<\/p>

Technical cookies<\/strong><\/p>

The Data Protection Authority defines \u201ctechnical\u201d cookies as those relative to:
1. activities strictly necessary to the operation of the website and\/or requested service;
2. saving preferences (e.g. products placed in the trolley, setting the navigation language, currency, purchase method, etc.);
3. statistical activities, provided that the data is used directly by the site administrator and only if in aggregate form and not individually (e.g. visit counters per country managed internally by the site).<\/p>

Profiling cookies<\/strong><\/p>

The Data Protection Authority defines \u201cprofiling\u201d cookies as those:
1. relative to advertising profiling, i.e. that collect and process the data of users for advertising purposes (e.g. to send them to advertising media owners);
2. involving retargeting activities, consisting in online advertising systems selected on the basis of the user\u2019s previous actions or Web searches (e.g. Google AdWords);
3. set by social networks;
4. relating to statistical activities managed by third parties (e.g. Google Analytics).
More detailed information on the nature and purpose of cookies can be found at https:\/\/it.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Cookie, as well as at other similar Internet pages.<\/p>
