1. GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT COOKIES

1.1 Definition

Cookies are small text files which the Site visited by user sends to the user’s terminal, where they are memorised in order to be sent back later to the Site during subsequent visits by the user. Cookies are used for many purposes, they have different features and they can be used both by the Data Controller of the Site which the user is visiting and by third parties. The main categories in which cookies can be divided are the following:

  • session and persistent cookies;
  • technical and profiling cookies;
  • first party and third party cookies.

1.2 Session and persistent cookies

Cookies can be erased at the end of a session with the browser (the time period between opening and closing of web browser by the user) or can be stored for a longer term. Session cookies are those allowing the web sites to link users’ actions during a browser session. Session cookies expire when the browser session ends. Persistent cookies are stored in the user’s hard drive among browser’s subfolders for variable period of time and allow to record user’s preference and actions in relation to a web site.

1.3 Technical and profiling cookies

Technical cookies are those used by the Data Controller of a web site for the sole purpose of transmitting a communication on an electronic communications network or, as strictly necessary, for sending to the provider of a service of a company the information explicitly requested by the subscriber or user to deliver that service. For the installation of such technical cookies, the prior consent of the person involved is not required where used directly from the site Data Controller.

Profiling cookies are used to create profiles relating to the user and to send advertising messages in line with the preferences expressed by the user in the context of browsing the web. Due to particular invasiveness which such cookies can have within the ambit of users’ privacy, European and Italian legislation provides that the user must be adequately informed about their use by a banner and detailed note on the site and must give his/her own explicit consent to this extent the first time visiting the site and, subsequently, every 6 months, or when one or more processing conditions change significantly or, also, when it is impossible for the website operator to be aware of the fact that a cookie has already been previously stored on the device in order to be transmitted again, during a subsequent visit by the same user, to the site that generated it. Such consent can be expressed by interacting with the banner on the home page of the site and following the instructions indicated therein or can be given or refused in selective manner by way of the following instructions. This consent is then stored to be used over the next visits. However, the user has always the possibility to totally or partially withdraw his/her consent already expressed.

1.4 First party and third-party cookies

Cookie can be first party or third-party in relation to the website or domain where they come from.

First party cookies are set up and managed by the Data Controller of the site. Third-party cookies are set up by a different domain from that one visited by the user.

2. USE OF COOKIES BY THE SITE

On this Site, the Data Controller uses third-party cookies.

The first time you browse the Site, you will see a banner asking you to accept all cookies (by clicking on “accept all”), reject unnecessary cookies (by clicking on “reject all”) or to customize your choices, through the “customize” button. In addition, by clicking on the X located at the top right of the cookie banner, you can reject unnecessary cookies. Cookies are considered necessary when they are used to ensure the operation and delivery of the Site and, therefore, do not require consent for their installation.

By clicking on “customize”, the user can select and/or disable cookies at any time using the appropriate area called “Customize” available within the cookie banner shown to the User during the first access or through appropriate links on the Site. This feature allows the User to access a dedicated area where he/she can select, in an analytical manner, the cookies grouped by homogeneous categories, to the use of which the User chooses to consent or disable, as well as confirm the previous choices. The list of cookies grouped by homogeneous categories, as well as the list of third parties is constantly updated.

In addition, you can manage your cookie preferences directly within your browser and prevent – for example – third parties from installing cookies. Through your browser preferences, you can also delete cookies that have been installed in the past, including the cookie in which consent to the installation of cookies by this Site is possibly saved. It is important to note that by disabling all cookies, the operation of this Site may be impaired.
