Cookie Policy – Information
Fulfilling the obligations provided for in Article 10 of Directive 95/46/EC, Directive 2002/58/EC, as updated by Directive 2009/136/EC, Article 13 of Legislative Decree No. 196 of 30 June 2003, and the general provision (web doc. No. 3118884) of the Guarantor for the protection of personal data, published in the Official Gazette No. 126 of 3 June 2014, register of provisions No. 229 of 8 May 2014 on the subject of cookies, we proceed with the information on these issues.

What are cookies?
Cookies are small texts that are installed on your computer or smartphone and tablet when you browse the web. Sites you visit send cookies to your browser (e.g. Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, Safari, Opera), which stores them and re-proposes them to the same sites when you visit them again. Cookies may also be transmitted to your browser from different sites or web servers, i.e. from third parties, which means that while you are browsing a specific website there may be elements from other sites that have such cookies, such as images, sounds, maps, links to other pages.
Depending on the type of cookie and therefore the purpose for which it is used, some user data are stored, for example to make more effective use of a site, to enable specific features, to monitor visiting sessions.
In particular, cookies allow you to store your preferences, avoid entering the same information several times during navigation (such as username and password), analyze the use of services and content provided by a site to optimize the browsing experience and services offered.

Types of Cookies
Cookies are divided into two macro-categories:

  • Technical Cookies, normally installed by the owner or operator of the website, have the purpose of “transmitting a communication over an electronic communication network, or to the extent strictly necessary to the provider of an information society service explicitly requested by the subscriber or user to provide such a service” (see art. 122, paragraph 1, of the Privacy Code).

The installation of Technical Cookies does not require the prior consent of users.
Technical cookies are further subdivided into:

    • Navigation cookies or session, which guarantee normal navigation and use of the website, allowing, for example, to make a purchase or authenticate to access restricted areas. These cookies are not permanently stored on the device used by the user and are automatically deactivated when the browser is closed. Their use is linked to the transmission of identification data necessary to allow safe and efficient navigation on the pages. Session cookies do not in any way allow the acquisition of personal identification data of the user.

    • Cookie analytics, used to collect information on the use of the site, anonymously and to obtain both a statistical analysis of the pages viewed and the behavior of users. This anonymous analysis provides information and suggestions to improve the quality of the site and to make easily accessible content that is most sought after and interesting to users. Cookies analytics can be sent both from the site and from third party domains and do not allow in any way the acquisition of personal data identifying the user. Cookies analytics, if installed by third parties (e.g. Google analytics), even if they collect data anonymously, are assimilated to profiling cookies, as indicated by the Guarantor for the protection of personal data.

    • Functionality cookies: assimilated to technical cookies when used directly by the operator of the site to collect information, in aggregate form, on the number of users and how they visit the site. These cookies allow the user to navigate according to a series of selected criteria (for example, language, products selected for purchase) in order to improve the service provided to the same

  • Profiling Cookies, are intended to create user profiles and are used to send advertising messages in line with the preferences expressed by the user in the context of online navigation. These cookies are particularly invasive in the private sphere of the user, for this reason the European and Italian legislation provides that the user must be adequately informed about the use of the same, thus being able to express their consent. Article 122 of the Privacy Code refers to them where it provides that “the storage of information in the terminal equipment of a contractor or a user or access to information already stored is permitted only on condition that the contractor or user has given his consent after being informed in the simplified manner referred to in Article 13 of the Privacy Code, paragraph 3″.
