  • Technical Cookies: Used for the sole purpose of “transmitting a communication on an electronic communications network or to the extent strictly necessary for the provider of an information society service explicitly required by the subscriber or the user to provide such service” (Section 122, paragraph 1 of the Privacy Code). Technical cookies include:
    Session or browsing cookies: used to keep track of the user. They guarantee normal browsing and use of the Site, allowing for example to make a purchase or to authenticate for access to restricted areas, and are actually necessary for its proper functioning.
    Functional Cookies: that allow the user to browse according to a set of selected criteria (for example, language, products selected for purchase) in order to improve the service offered to the user.
    First-Party Cookies Analytics: assimilated in terms of regulation to technical cookies when used by the owner of the site without making user profiling, but only to collect information, in aggregate and anonymous form, on the number of users and how they visit site for statistical purposes and to improve the performance of the site.
    Third-Party Analytics Cookies: are made available to third parties and are assimilated to technical cookies if third parties do not make user profiling by using appropriate tools to reduce cookie identification (for example, by masking significant portions of the IP address) and without crossing the information gathered with other ones that they already have.
    Technical cookies only require the release of the Cookie Policy without the need for consent (Section 13 of the Italian Personal Data Protection Code).
  • Profiling Cookies: used to track user web browsing and create a profile of his habits which can then be
    used to send advertising messages to the user’s device:
    First-Party Profiling Cookies: installed by the owner of the website to create user profiles in order to send advertising messages in line with the preferences displayed while surfing the web.

    Third-Party Profiling Cookies: used by third parties accessing the information, not in anonymous and aggregated mode, and crossed with other data already in their possession.
