Cookies or markers (hereinafter also referred to as ‘Cookies’) are packets of information sent by a web server (in this case by this website) to the Internet browser (hereinafter also referred to as ‘Browser’) of the user/visitor and automatically stored by the latter on the personal computer or mobile device (hereinafter also referred to as ‘Device’) used for browsing and automatically sent back to the server each time the website is accessed.
This site uses Cookies; for full enjoyment of the service, we therefore recommend that you configure your Browser used for navigation in such a way that it accepts the reception of Cookies.
The purpose of this Cookie Policy (hereinafter also referred to as the ‘Policy’) is to describe how the website is managed with regard to the use of cookies or markers (hereinafter also referred to as ‘Cookies’).
General information on cookies used
Please note that by default almost all browsers are set to automatically accept Cookies. Users/visitors can, however, change the default settings at any time.
As stated above, the disabling or deletion of Cookies may, in any case, preclude the optimal use of certain areas/functions of the site or compromise the use of the services offered under authentication.
If users/visitors wish to decide on each occasion whether or not to accept Cookies, they can also configure their Browser to generate a warning each time a Cookie is saved.
The Cookies used may be of the following types: (1) persistent, i.e., they remain stored on the hard disk of the user/visitor’s Device until they expire; (2) session Cookies, i.e., they are not stored persistently on the hard disk of the user/visitor’s Device but are deleted when the Browser is closed.
Cookies are used: (a) to facilitate navigation within the site and ensure its correct use; (b) to facilitate access to services that require authentication (preventing users from having to re-enter authentication credentials each time they access the services); (c) for statistical purposes, to know which areas of the site have been visited; (d) for the optimal management of the pages and advertising spaces; (e) to deliver content and advertising in line with the choices made by surfers (so-called behavioural advertising with dynamic creativity).
Session cookies are used for the purpose of transmitting navigation session identifiers in order to enable the safe and efficient exploration of the site. The session cookies used in this site avoid the use of other computer techniques potentially prejudicial to the privacy of the users/visitors and are also used to improve the provision of the services offered.
In addition, the Cookies may be the site’s own (used, for example, to find out the number of pages visited within the site itself) or third-party Cookies (i.e., generated by other sites to deliver content on the site visited by users). This site may use anonymous third-party cookies in order to dynamically manage the delivery of advertising messages. The most popular browsers provide the possibility of blocking exclusively third-party Cookies, accepting only the site’s own Cookies. Moreover, some companies that generate Cookies on third-party sites offer the possibility to deactivate and/or inhibit only their own Cookies in a simple and immediate way, also when these are anonymous, that is, they do not involve the registration of personal identification data such as IP addresses, for example.
How to disable cookies
Most browsers are initially configured to automatically accept Cookies. The user/visitor can modify these configurations to inhibit Cookies or to warn that Cookies are being used on his/her Device. There are various ways to manage Cookies and, in this regard, the user/visitor can refer to the user manual or help screen of his/her browser to find out how to configure or change the settings on Cookies. When using different Devices (e.g., personal computers, smartphones, tablets, etc.), the user/visitor will need to ensure that each Browser on each Device used is configured to reflect their preferences regarding the use of Cookies.
Cookies used by the site:
Our site uses technical cookies that make it possible to access the functions offered by the site, without which certain services would not be accessible (so-called navigation cookies) or cookies that are used by us to collect information in aggregate form regarding access to the site (so-called analytics cookies). Google Analytics is Google’s analytics tool that helps website and app owners understand how visitors interact with their content. This service may use a set of cookies to collect information and generate statistics about website usage without providing personal information about individual visitors to Google. Here are some further details.
In addition, the Facebook Pixel cookie is installed, which allows us to monitor the conversions that occur on the website as a result of the advertisements we run on Facebook.
Facebook compares the conversion event with the group of people to whom the advertisement was shown or who clicked on it, in order to provide us with information that helps us to understand the return on investment for advertising expenditure.
Such cookies can only be used for these purposes with the user’s consent.
