Information on the use of cookies

This website uses technical cookies to ensure the correct functioning of the procedures and improve the experience of using online applications. This document provides information on the use of cookies and similar technologies, how they are used by the site, and how to handle them.

Definitions
Cookies are small text files that sites visited by users send to their terminals, where they are stored to be retransmitted to the same sites at the next visit. Cookies from "Third Party" are instead set up by a web site other than the one the user is visiting. This is because there are elements (images, maps, sounds, specific links to other web pages, etc.) on each site that reside on servers other than that of the visited site.

Types of cookies
Depending on the characteristics and the use of cookies, different categories can be distinguished:

Technical Cookies.
Technical cookies are only used to "transmit a communication on an electronic communications network, or to the extent strictly necessary for the information society service provider explicitly required by the subscriber or user to provide such service" (see Article 122, paragraph 1, of the Code). They are not used for further purposes and are normally installed directly by the owner or web site manager. They can be subdivided into navigation or session cookies, which ensure the normal browsing and use of the website; Cookie analytics, assimilated to technical cookies when used directly by the site manager to gather aggregated information about the number of users and how they visit the site; Feature cookies, which allow the user to navigate according to a set of criteria selected in order to improve the service rendered to it. For the installation of such cookies, prior consent of users is not required, while the obligation to provide information pursuant to art. 13 of the Code, which the site manager, if he or she only uses such devices, may provide it with the methods it deems appropriate.

Profiling Cookies.
Profiling cookies are designed to create user-related profiles and are used to send advertisements in line with the preferences displayed by the same in the context of network browsing. Due to the particular invasiveness that such devices may have in the private sphere of users, European and Italian legislation provides that the user must be properly informed of their use and thus express their true consent. They refer to Art. 122 of the Code where it provides that "the storage of information in the terminal of a contractor or a user or access to previously archived information is only permitted provided that the contractor or the user has given their consent after being informed of the simplified procedures referred to in Article 13, paragraph 3 "(Article 122, paragraph 1 of the Code). This site does not use profiling cookies.
