Cookies are small text files sent by websites and stored on your computer, tablet, smartphone or other mobile devices. They contain basic internet browsing information and, thanks to the browser, they are recognised whenever the user visits the website. Cookies can also be first-party cookies if set from the visited website or third-party cookies if sent from a website other than that visited one.

Technical cookies
This type of cookie allows for the correct operation of some sections of the website. They are two categories, persistent and session cookies:
– persistent cookies: once the browser is closed, they will not be deleted and remain up to a preset expiry date or until the user deletes them;
– session cookies: they are deleted whenever the browser is closed.

These cookies are required to display the website correctly and in relation to the technical services offered. They will always be used and sent, unless users modify the settings on their browser.

Technical cookies are used for the following activities:
a) Activities strictly necessary for operation. These are technical cookies that allow the website to work correctly. For instance, they keep the user logged on while browsing the website, preventing the website from requiring multiple logins to access the various pages or sections of the website.
b) To save preferences. These cookies are used to remember the preferences selected by the user during navigation, for example to set the language.
c) Statistical and Audience Measurement Activities. These cookies help us understand, through data collected in anonymous and aggregated form, how users interact with our website by providing us with information about the sections visited, the time spent on the website and any malfunctions. This helps us improve the performance of our website.

We rely on suppliers who can in turn install cookies to ensure the correct operation of the services they are providing, on which we have no control. If you want to have information about these third-party cookies and how to disable them, please access the link below reported for each third-party cookie.

The cookies on the browser can be disabled at any time. Please bear in mind that this option might limit a number of browsing features on the website.

On our websites there are special “buttons” (called “social buttons/widgets”) with icons of social networks (for example Facebook, LinkedIn, etc.) and other websites (Google+, SlideShare, etc.). These buttons allow users who are browsing the websites to interact with a “click” directly with social networks and other websites shown. In this case, the social network and other websites acquire the data relating to the user’s visit, while the Data Controller will not share any browsing information or user data acquired through its own website with social networks and other websites that can be accessed thanks to the social buttons/widgets.
