There are various types of cookies.
Listed below are the types of cookies that may be used on the Site, along with a description of their purpose.
Technical Cookies
Cookies of this type are necessary for the proper functioning of certain areas of the site. Cookies in this category include both persistent cookies and session cookies. Without these cookies, the site or certain portions of it may not function properly. Therefore, they are always used, regardless of the user’s preferences. Cookies in this category are always sent from our domain.
Analytical cookies
Cookies of this type are used to collect information about how the Site is used. The Data Controller uses this information for statistical analysis, to improve the Site and simplify its use, as well as to monitor its proper functioning. This type of cookie collects anonymous information about users’ activity on the Site, how they arrived at the Site, and the pages they visited. Cookies in this category are sent by the Site itself or by third-party domains.
Third-party tracking cookies
Cookies of this type are used to collect information about how visitors use the website, the keywords used to reach the site, the websites visited, and the traffic sources from which visitors come for marketing campaigns. The data controller may use this information to compile reports and improve the Site. Cookies collect information anonymously. Cookies of this type are sent by the Site itself or by third-party domains.
Cookies for Integrating Third-Party Features
Cookies of this type are used to integrate third-party features into the Site (for example, comment forms or social media icons that allow visitors to share the Site’s content). Cookies in this category may be sent from the domains of partner sites or sites that otherwise provide the features available on the Site.
The Data Controller is not required to request the user’s consent for technical cookies, as these are strictly necessary for the provision of the service.
For other types of cookies, consent may be given by the user, in accordance with applicable law, through specific settings in the browser and in software or devices that are easy and clear for the user to use. The Data Controller reminds the User that it is possible to change cookie preferences at any time. It is also possible to disable cookies in the browser at any time, but doing so may prevent the User from using certain parts of the Site.
Third-Party Websites and Cookies
The site contains links to other websites that have their own privacy policies. These privacy policies may differ from that adopted by the Data Controller, who therefore is not liable for third-party websites.
Pursuant to Article 122, second paragraph, of Legislative Decree 196/2003, consent to the use of such cookies is expressed by the data subject through the individual settings freely chosen for the browser used to navigate the website, without prejudice to the user’s right to notify the Data Controller at any time of their wishes regarding data processed through cookies that the browser itself has accepted.
When visiting a website, you may receive cookies both from the site you are visiting (“first-party cookies”) and from sites operated by other organizations (“third-party cookies”). A notable example is the presence of “social plugins” for Facebook, Twitter, Google+, and LinkedIn. These are parts of the visited page generated directly by the aforementioned sites and integrated into the host site’s page. The most common use of social plugins is to share content on social networks.
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 their respective privacy policies, which we ask you to consult. To ensure greater transparency and convenience, the web addresses of the various privacy policies and instructions for managing cookies are provided below.

Google Analytics
The site also includes certain components provided by Google Analytics, a web traffic analysis service provided by Google, Inc. (“Google”). These are also third-party cookies collected and managed anonymously to monitor and improve the performance of the host site (performance cookies).
Google Analytics uses “cookies” to collect and analyze information about website usage behavior (including the user’s IP address) anonymously. This information is collected by Google Analytics, which processes it to generate reports for website administrators regarding activity on the website itself. This site does not use (nor does it allow third parties to use) Google’s analytics tool to monitor or collect personally identifiable information. Google does not associate the IP address with any other data held by Google, nor does it attempt to link an IP address to a user’s identity. Google may also disclose this information to third parties where required by law or where such third parties process the information on Google’s behalf.
For more information, please refer to this link: https://www.google.it/policies/privacy/partners/
You can selectively disable Google Analytics by installing the opt-out tool provided by Google on your browser. To disable Google Analytics, please visit this link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptoutCookie Duration
Some cookies (session cookies) remain active only until the browser is closed or the user logs out. Other cookies “survive” the closing of the browser and remain 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 expiration date is set; in others, the duration is unlimited. Managing Cookies
You can choose whether or not to accept cookies using your browser settings.
Please note: completely or partially disabling technical cookies may compromise your ability to use the website’s features reserved for registered users. Conversely, public content remains accessible even if cookies are completely disabled.
Disabling “third-party” cookies does not affect your browsing experience in any way.
Settings can be configured specifically for different websites and web applications. Additionally, the most popular browsers allow you to set different preferences for “first-party” and “third-party” cookies.
For example, in Firefox, via the Tools > Options > Privacy menu, you can access a control panel where you can choose whether to accept or reject different types of cookies and proceed to delete them.
