Cookie Policy

This text aims to explain about cookies, show how these are used in our website and tells how to mange them and possibly limit their use. Like most sites, our site uses cookies which are compact text files created by websites to store navigation information, such as your preferences or profile information. Visitors to a website may always select which cookies to authorize or disable by configuring their Web browsers. However, by disabling cookies, you run the risk of not being able to use parts of the site. Using a site without disabling cookies and other similar technologies, users consent to the use of these technologies within the site for the collection and processing of information in accordance with this Privacy and Cookie disclosure.

What are cookies?

Cookies are text files that, when navigating a site with a Web browser, can be saved on your navigation device (computer, smartphone, tablet, etc.). The minimum information contained in the cookie is the name of the website (the domain or IP address of the site) from which the cookie comes from, its ‘expiration time’ (ie an indication of the moment in which it expires) and a value, which in most cases is a random character array. On the site AboutCookies.org you can find much more information about cookies and how these affect your browsing experience.

Cookie types

On websites, depending on the specific functional objectives, various types of cookies will be used. The following is a list of these types of cookies with an indication of the purposes for which they are exploited.

Session cookies (temporary): session cookies are temporarily stored in the computer memory, for example, to keep track of the language chosen for navigation. Session cookies are stored on your computer until you close the Web browser in which the Web site is consulted.

Persistent cookies or tracers: persistent cookies save a file on your computer for a long period of time defined by field ‘expiration time’. These Cookies allow Web sites to remember information and settings for next visits, making browsing more convenient and quick, because, for example, is no longer necessary to specify username and password to log in. After the expiration date, the cookie is automatically deleted when you make your first access to the Web site that created it.

First parts Cookies: These cookies are set directly from the Web sites visited by the user (the domain specified is the same as that written in the address bar of the Web browser) and can only be read by such sites. They are commonly used to store information such as user preferences, to use in next accesses. They can be either session or permanent.

Third Party Cookies: These cookies are set from domains that differ from that one indicated in the address bar of the web browser, or by organizations that do not correspond to the owners of Web sites. For example, these cookies can be used to collect information for advertising purposes and customization of content, as well as to compile statistics.

Essential cookie: are referred to as “essential” that cookies that are mandatory to enable the user to navigate through the site and use the services required, such as to manage the registration process and access by users to the private area of a site. These cookies are usually first parts and can be permanent or session.

Performance cookies: These cookies collect information about how visitors use a website, for example, which pages are visited or if you get error messages from web pages. These cookies do not collect information that identify a visitor, all information collected by cookies is aggregated and therefore anonymous. The purpose of these cookies is only the improvement of the site.

Features cookies: These cookies allow the site to remember the choices made by the user (such as name, language or region of origin) and provide advanced features customized. They can also be used to provide services such as watching a video or commenting on a blog. The information gathered from these types of cookies can be made anonymous and can not track your browsing activity on other websites.

Technical cookies: These are  session and / or function and / or essential cookies that allow users to select specific parameters in navigation and cookies performance measures used by management of the sites to collect aggregate information on the number of users and how to visit sites.

Profiling cookies: These are cookies used in order to send promotional messages in relation to the preferences expressed by users during the navigation or in specific sections visited.

Flash Cookies are files that can be stored on your computer by Web sites that use Adobe Flash. All popular Web browsers have a Flash player for viewing files in Flash format (for example to display the video site YouTube). The idea behind the Flash cookies is similar to that of the cookies described above, even if the implementation and technology are different: in fact for cookies of Flash there is no time limit and are then stored on the devices until users proceed to delete them. Furthermore, Flash cookies can not be blocked or managed in the browser, as they are stored in another location. In the Settings Manager on the Adobe website you can view the list, manage, delete and in case disable Flash cookies present on your navigation device.
