Cookie Policy
1. General information about cookies
1.1 Definition
Cookies are small text files that are sent to and recorded on the computer or mobile device of a user visiting a website, only to be retransmitted to the same website during the next visit. Cookies allow the site to remember user behavior and preferences (e.g., login data, preferred language, or other display settings) so that these do not have to be specified again upon the next visit or while navigating between pages. Cookies are used for authentication purposes, session monitoring, and storing information regarding the activities of users accessing the site. They may contain unique identifiers that allow for the tracking of user navigation and experience on the site for statistical or advertising purposes. While browsing, the user’s computer or mobile device may also receive cookies from servers or websites other than the one they are visiting (so-called “third-party cookies”). Some operations might be impossible without cookies, which are sometimes technically necessary for the site to function properly.
The main categories into which cookies can be divided are as follows:
- Session or persistent cookies;
- Technical or profiling cookies;
- First-party or third-party cookies.
1.2 Session and Persistent Cookies
Cookies may expire at the end of a browser session (the period between the User opening a browser window and closing it), or they may be stored for a longer period of time. Session cookies are those that allow websites to link a user’s actions during a browser session. Session cookies expire when the browser session ends. Persistent cookies are stored on the user’s device between browser sessions for varying periods and allow the User’s preferences or actions regarding a website to be remembered.
1.3 Technical and Profiling Cookies
Technical cookies are those used by the site owner for the sole purpose of carrying out the transmission of a communication over an electronic communications network, or to the extent strictly necessary for the provider of an information society service explicitly requested by the user to provide that service. User consent is not required for the installation of such cookies when they are used directly by the site operator.
Profiling cookies are intended to create profiles related to the user and are used to send advertising messages in line with the preferences expressed by the user while surfing the web. Due to the particular invasiveness that such cookies may have on users’ privacy, European and Italian legislation requires that the User be adequately informed about their use through a short notice (banner) and an extended policy present on the site, and must provide express consent the first time they visit the site. This consent can be expressed in a general manner by interacting with the short notice banner on the site’s landing page, following the methods indicated in the banner, or it can be provided or denied selectively according to the methods indicated below. This consent is tracked during subsequent visits. However, the user always has the option to revoke all or part of the consent already expressed.
1.4 First-Party and Third-Party Cookies
A cookie is defined as “first-party” or “third-party” based on the website or domain it originates from.
First-party cookies are, essentially, cookies set and managed by the site owner. For these cookies, the obligation to provide information, obtain prior consent (if applicable), and/or allow the blocking of cookies rests with the site owner.
Third-party cookies are cookies set by a domain other than the one visited by the user. For these cookies, the obligation to provide information and specify methods for potential consent and/or blocking of cookies rests with the third party, while the site owner is only required to include a link on the site to the third party’s website where such elements are available.
