COOKIE POLICY

COOKIES - DEFINITIONS, CHARACTERISTICS AND APPLICABLE LEGISLATION

Cookies are small text files that the websites visited by the user send and store on his or her computer or mobile device, and are sent back to the related websites at your next visit. Cookies enable a website to remember the user’s actions and preferences (such as login, language, font size, other display preferences, etc.), so the user does not have to re-enter them whenever user comes back to the site or browses from one page to another. Therefore, cookies are used for IT authentications, session monitoring and storing information on the activities of the users visiting a website and may contain a unique identifier that enables the user’s browsing activity on the website to be tracked for statistical or advertising purposes. While browsing a website, cookies of websites or web servers other than that the user is visiting may also be sent to his or her computer or device (“third-party” cookies).

Some activities cannot be performed without using cookies, which, in some cases, are technically necessary for the very operation of the website.

There are several types of cookies, based on their characteristics and functions, and they stay on the user’s computer for different periods of time: session cookies are automatically erased when the browser is closed; persistent cookies stay on the user’s device until a pre-set expiry date.

For the use of cookies, the applicable legislation does not always require consent to be expressed by the user. Specifically, said consent is not usually required for “technical cookies”, i.e. cookies that are used only to transmit a communication on an electronic communication network or to provide a service expressly requested by the user. In other words, these cookies are essential for the website operation or necessary to carry out activities requested by the user.

Conversely, for “profiling cookies”, i.e. those used to create user profiles in order to send advertising messages in line with the user’s preferences as expressed while browsing the web, the user’s prior consent is generally required, in accordance with the applicable legislation.
