About Cookies

What are cookies?

A "cookie" is a text file saved on the user's computer when the user accesses a website with the purpose of providing information each time the user returns to the same site. It is a kind of reminder of the internet page visited. With the cookie, the web server sends information to the user's browser (Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, etc.) that is stored on the user's computer, and will be re-read and updated each time the user returns to the site. In this way, the website can automatically adapt to the user. During browsing, the user may also receive cookies on his terminal from different sites ("third party" cookies), set directly by the managers of these websites and used for the purposes and in the manner defined by them.

Depending on their duration, a distinction is made between session cookies (i.e. those that are temporary and automatically deleted from the terminal at the end of the browsing session by closing the browser) and persistent cookies (i.e. those that remain stored on the terminal until they expire or are deleted by the user).

Depending on the function and purpose of use, cookies can be divided into technical cookies and profiling cookies.

Technical cookies

Some cookies are used to perform computer authentication, session tracking and store specific information about users accessing a web page. These so-called technical cookies are often useful to allow you to browse a website and use all of its features. Technical cookies are those whose use does not require the user's consent.

Analytical cookies also belong to this category. These are cookies that collect information about how a user uses a website and help to improve the website. For example, analytics cookies show which pages are most frequently visited, allow us to see what the recurring patterns of use of a website are and help us understand any difficulties you may have in using it.

Profiling cookies

Other cookies may instead be used to monitor and profile users while they are browsing, to study their movements and habits when consulting the web or consuming (what they buy, what they read, etc.), also for the purpose of sending targeted and personalised advertising services. In this case we talk about profiling cookies. The use of these cookies requires the prior acquisition of the user's free, informed consent pursuant to Article 7 of EU Regulation 2016/679.

Third-party cookies

It may also happen that a web page contains cookies coming from other sites and contained in various elements hosted on the page itself, such as advertising banners, images, videos, maps or specific links to web pages of other domains that reside on servers other than the one on which the requested page is located. In other words, these cookies are set directly by operators of websites or servers other than this website. We speak, in these cases, of so-called third-party cookies, which are usually used for profiling purposes. The use of these cookies requires the prior acquisition of the user's free, informed consent.
