Cookie Policy

This site uses cookies and similar technologies to ensure the proper functioning of the site and to improve the visitor's online experience.

WHAT ARE COOKIES?

Cookies are small text files stored on the user's computer or mobile device when they visit websites and applications. They are commonly used to ensure the proper functioning of websites, to improve functionality, and to collect information about user behavior on the website and the use of the services offered.

TYPES OF COOKIES

Based on the characteristics and use of cookies, we can distinguish between different categories:

Technical cookies (performance): These cookies are strictly necessary for the website to function properly, used to provide services in a better way and to improve your browsing experience. For example, they allow us to detect if the same user returns to the site at different times. Thanks to cookies, the website remembers minimal amounts of information related to your actions and preferences (e.g., login, language, and other display settings) so that you do not have to re-enter them when you return to the website or browse from one page to another.

Analytics cookies: these cookies are used to collect and analyze traffic and website usage anonymously.

Profiling cookies: these are permanent cookies used to identify user preferences and send advertising messages in line with them. Our site does not use cookies of this type.

THIRD-PARTY COOKIES

When visiting a website, cookies may be received both from the visited site (“owners”) and from sites managed by other organizations (“third parties”). An example is the presence of “social plugins” for Facebook, Twitter, Google+, etc. These are parts of the visited page generated directly by the aforementioned sites and integrated into the host site's page.

The presence of these plugins involves the transmission of cookies to and from all sites managed by third parties. The management of information collected by “third parties” is governed by the relevant privacy policies, which we invite you to refer to.

Other cookies “survive” the closure of the browser and are also available during subsequent visits by the user. These cookies are called persistent cookies and their duration is set by the server at the time of their creation. In some cases, an expiry date is set, while in others the duration is unlimited.
