Cookie Policy

A cookie is a small text file that a website visited by the user (hereinafter, the “User”) sends to their device (computer, tablet, smartphone, etc.), where it is stored to be sent back to that site during subsequent visits.

Below, we provide all the information regarding the cookies installed through this website (hereinafter, the “Site”), as well as instructions on how to manage preferences related to them.

1) Types of Cookies and their functions

Technical Cookies
Technical cookies are used solely to ensure proper display and navigation of the Site or to the extent strictly necessary to provide an information society service explicitly requested by the User.

Technical cookies do not require the User’s prior consent, as they are used by the Site only to support internal analysis and monitoring (on anonymous and aggregated data) regarding traffic generated by Users (especially access and page views) and to implement improvements to the Site in terms of performance and navigation.

Technical cookies may include:

• Navigation or session cookies, which ensure the normal use of the website;
• Analytics cookies (e.g., Google Analytics), which are treated as technical cookies by the Data Protection Authority when used directly by the Site manager to collect aggregated information about user numbers and site usage. You can download the browser add-on to disable Google Analytics at the following link;
• Functionality cookies, which allow the User to navigate based on selected criteria (such as language or chosen products) to improve the service;
• Performance cookies, which gather information on how the User uses the website.

If these cookies are removed through browser settings, browsing the Site may be partially or entirely impaired.

First-party Cookies
These are cookies installed directly by the Site operator and used to ensure its technical operation or to track user preferences. These cookies are not permanently stored on the User’s device and are deleted once the browser is closed.

The data collected by first-party cookies may be communicated to third parties acting on behalf of the Data Controller as Data Processors or Persons in Charge of Processing. In relation to such data, the User may exercise the rights provided by Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR), as indicated in the Privacy Policy accessible via the link available on the Site.

Third-party Cookies
These cookies are installed by a different site through the first one.

An example is the presence of social media “plug-ins”: these are parts of the visited page generated directly by the respective social platforms and integrated into the host website. The most common use of social plug-ins is for sharing website content on social networks.

The purposes of these cookies, the logic behind their processing, and how to manage User preferences are not determined or verified by the Site Owner but by the third party providing them, who acts as an independent Data Controller.

Users are therefore encouraged to consult the privacy policies and terms of use of the respective social networks, available on their official pages, over which the Site Owner has no control.
