Cookies Policy

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are text strings made up of portions of code sent by a web server (e.g., a website) to an Internet browser, stored in the browser itself. These are small text files that websites send to users’ devices, where they are stored and later sent back to the same sites on subsequent visits. Almost all browsers are set to allow automatic storage of cookies on the user’s device.

Cookies serve various purposes and have different characteristics. They can be used by the Data Controller, Joint Controllers, or third parties who may use, independently or jointly, the following categories based on the classification proposed in Opinion 04/2012 by the Article 29 Working Party:

Session or Persistent Cookies

Cookies can expire at the end of a browser session (the time between opening and closing the browser) or be stored for longer. Session cookies link user actions during a session and expire at the session’s end. Persistent cookies remain stored between browser sessions and allow user preferences or actions to be saved.

Technical or Profiling Cookies

Necessary cookies are essential for the site’s core functionality and do not store personally identifiable information.
Technical cookies are used solely to transmit a communication over an electronic network or to provide a service explicitly requested by the user (e.g., site access, newsletter).
No prior consent is required for these cookies if used directly by the site owner.

Profiling cookies create user profiles and are used to send advertising aligned with user preferences. Due to their invasive nature, European and Italian laws require that users be informed and explicitly consent via a short notice (banner) and extended information on the site. Consent can be given generally via the banner or selectively. This consent is recorded for future visits and may be withdrawn at any time.

First-Party or Third-Party Cookies

A cookie is “first-party” if set/managed by the site owner. The site owner must provide notice and manage consent and/or blocking.

Third-party cookies are set by domains other than the one visited. The third party must provide notice and manage consent. The site owner must only provide links to the relevant third-party pages.
