INFORMATION ON THE USE OF COOKIES – COOKIES POLICY OF THIS WEBSITE
In accordance with the provisions of the document issued by the Authority for the Protection of Personal Data on the “Identification of simplified procedures for the information and the acquisition of consent for the use of cookies” of 8 May 2014, below is the extensive information regarding the use of cookies by the website.
INFORMATION ON COOKIES
What are cookies
Cookies are small text strings that the sites visited by the user send to their display device, usually to the browser, where they are stored before being subsequently re-transmitted to the same websites the following time the same user visits the website. During navigation on a site the user can receive on his/her device even cookies sent from different websites or web servers (so-called “third parties”), on which some elements may exist, such as images, maps, sounds, specific links to pages of other domains, present on the site that the user is currently visiting.
Cookies, usually present in users’ browsers in large numbers and sometimes even with wide temporal persistence, may be used for different purposes such as performing computer authentication, monitoring sessions, storing information on specific configurations concerning users accessing the server, etc.
Types of cookies
Cookies are divided into two macro-categories: “technical” cookies and “profiling” cookies.
Technical cookies
Technical cookies are used for the sole purpose of “transmitting a communication over an electronic communications network, or to the extent strictly necessary for the provider of an information company service explicitly requested by the subscriber or user to provide this service “(see Article 122, paragraph 1, of the Code).
They are not used for other purposes and are normally installed directly by the controller or operator of the website. They can be divided into navigation or session cookies, which guarantee the normal navigation and use of the website (allowing, for example, to make a purchase or authenticate to access restricted areas); analytics cookies, similar to technical cookies when used directly by the site operator to collect information, in aggregate form, on the number of users and how they visit the site; functional cookies, which allow the user to browse according to a series of selected criteria (for example, the language, the products selected for purchase) in order to improve the service rendered to the same.
Another type of cookies are the so-called “Flash Cookies” (Local Shared Objects), used within Adobe Flash Player to deliver some content, such as video clips or animations, in order to remember the settings and preferences. Flash cookies are stored on the device, but are managed through a different interface than the one provided by the browser in use.
The Adobe website https://www.adobe.com/devnet/security.html provides information on how to remove or disable Flash cookies related to a specific domain.
For the installation of these cookies, the prior consent of users is not required, while the obligation to provide information pursuant to article 13 and 14 of European Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of 27/04/2016, whereby the site manager, if using only such devices, can provide in the manner it should deem most suitable.
Profiling cookies.
Profiling cookies are designed to create profiles related to the user and are used in order to send advertising messages in line with the preferences expressed by the same in the context of surfing the net. Due to the particular invasiveness that such devices may have in the private sphere of users, European and Italian regulations alike require the user to be adequately informed about their use and therefore be able to express their valid consent. In particular pursuant to article 13 and 22 of European Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of 27/04/2016 the data subject must be informed that there are no consequences due to the processing carried out with profiling cookies.
