COOKIE POLICY
Definitions, characteristics, and application of the legislation.
Cookies are small text files that the sites visited by the user send and record on their computer or mobile device, to be then re-transmitted to the same sites on the next visit. Thanks to cookies, a site remembers the user's actions and preferences (such as, for example, login data, the chosen language, font size, other display settings, etc.) so that they do not have to be indicated again.
When the user returns to visit said site or navigates from one page to another. Cookies, therefore, are used to perform computer authentication, monitor sessions, and store information regarding the activities of users who access a site and can also contain a unique identification code that allows tracking of the user's navigation within the site itself for statistical or advertising purposes. While browsing a site, the user may also receive cookies on their computer from sites or web servers other than the one they are visiting (so-called "third party" cookies). Some operations could not be carried out without the use of cookies, which in certain cases are therefore technically necessary for the functioning of the site.
There are various types of cookies, depending on their characteristics and functions, and these can remain on the user's computer for different periods: so-called. session cookie, which is automatically deleted when the browser is closed; CD. persistent cookies, which remain on the user's equipment until a pre-established expiry date.
Based on current legislation in Italy, express user consent is not always required for the use of cookies. In particular, "technical cookies" do not require such consent, i.e. those used for the sole purpose of transmitting a communication over an electronic communications network, or to the extent strictly necessary to provide a service explicitly requested by the user. In other words, these are cookies that are essential for the functioning of the site or necessary to carry out activities requested by the user.
Among the technical cookies, which do not require express consent for their use, the Italian Guarantor for the protection of personal data (see Provision Identification of simplified methods for the information and the acquisition of consent for the use of cookies of the 8 May 2014 and subsequent clarifications, hereinafter only “Provision”) also includes:
• "Analytics cookies" were used directly by the site manager to collect information, in aggregate form, on the number of users and how they visit the site itself
• navigation or session cookies (to authenticate)
• functionality cookies, which allow the user to navigate according to a series of selected criteria (for example, the language, the products selected for purchase) to improve the service provided.
For "profiling cookies", on the other hand, i.e. those aimed at creating profiles relating to the user and used to send advertising messages in line with the preferences expressed by the user when browsing the internet, prior consent is required from the user.
