Cookie Policy

What are cookies

A cookie is a small text file that is stored on your computer when a website is visited by a user. The text stores information that the site is able to read when it is consulted at a later time. Some of these cookies are necessary for the proper functioning of the site, while others are useful to the visitor because they can securely store information such as username or language settings. The advantage of having cookies installed on your PC is that you no longer need to fill out the same information every time you want to access a site you have previously visited.

Why does this website use cookies?

Some cookies are extremely useful because they can make navigation more pleasant for the user when visiting a website they have already consulted other times. If you use the same device and the same browser, cookies can, for example, remember your preferences, help us understand how our sites are used, and make the content displayed more relevant to your interests and needs.

None of the cookies used by this Website collect information that personally identifies the user.

How to check and delete cookies

If you wish to change the way your browser uses cookies, or block or delete cookies from this Website (or any other site), you can do so by changing your browser settings.

In order to monitor cookies, most browsers allow the user to accept or reject them all, accept only certain types, or will ask every time if you want to save a cookie from a particular site. It is just as easy to delete cookies that have already been saved by the browser on your device.

The process for checking and deleting cookies varies depending on the browser used. To find out how to do this with a particular browser, you can use the Help function in your browser’s menu.

Types of cookies

Cookies are categorized as follows:

1. Session Cookies: These are stored on the user’s computer for purely technical-functional needs, for the transmission of session identifiers necessary to allow safe and efficient exploration of the site; they are deleted at the end of the “session” (hence the name) when the browser is closed. This type of cookie avoids the use of other IT techniques that could potentially compromise the privacy of user navigation.
2. Persistent Cookies: These remain stored on the computer’s hard drive until they expire or are deleted by users/visitors. Through persistent cookies, visitors who access the site (or any other users using the same computer) are automatically recognized at each visit. Persistent cookies perform many functions in the interest of navigators (such as the choice of navigation language or the registration of the shopping cart in online purchases). However, persistent cookies can also be used for promotional purposes or even for purposes of questionable legality. Visitors can set their computer browser to accept/reject all cookies or display a warning whenever a cookie is proposed, in order to evaluate whether to accept it or not. The user is allowed, however, to change the default configuration and disable cookies (i.e., block them definitively) by setting the highest level of protection.
3. Third-Party Cookies: Cookies stored on behalf of third parties, which can be either session or persistent.
