Cookie policy

This document provides information on the use of cookies by this website and describes the options available to users to manage them.
Like most websites, this site uses cookies and similar technologies to improve the browsing experience and provide personalised services. Cookies are small text files that the website’s server stores in the user’s browser to recognise them on later visits and optimise navigation.

Types of cookies used

There are several types of cookies, whose main purpose is to make the website work more efficiently and to enable certain features. The types of cookies that may be used are listed below.

Technical cookies (necessary)

Technical cookies are essential cookies that allow users to browse the site and use all its features, such as keeping the session alive, accessing restricted areas and remembering the user’s language. They are strictly necessary for the website to work properly; without them, the services requested by the user could not be provided. These cookies do not collect information used for commercial purposes and are therefore always used, regardless of the user’s preferences. Technical cookies also include those used for statistical analysis of visits to the site, exclusively for statistical purposes and not for marketing or profiling. The information collected is aggregated and does not allow the identification of individual users. Technical cookies do not require the user’s consent, as they are necessary for the operation of the site. Cookies can in any case be disabled through the browser settings; disabling them, however, may impair or limit some features of the site.

Analytics cookies

Analytics cookies are used to collect information on how users use the site, in order to improve its performance, the quality of the services offered and the browsing experience. The information collected through these cookies is processed in aggregated and anonymous form and does not allow the identification of individual users in any way.
Since analytics cookies pursue exclusively statistical purposes and are not used for marketing or profiling, the user’s consent is not required for their use.

Profiling cookies

Profiling cookies are used to collect information on the user’s preferences and to create personalised profiles, in order to show advertising content in line with the interests expressed while browsing. These cookies make it possible to personalise advertising messages and improve the relevance of the content offered. Installing profiling cookies requires the user’s explicit consent. Refusing or later withdrawing consent does not affect the ability to browse the site, but reduces or removes the personalisation of advertising content.

Third-party cookies

Third-party cookies are used to integrate into the site features provided by third parties, such as comment forms, social network buttons or icons that allow users to share the site’s content. These cookies may be installed directly by the domains of partner sites or by third parties providing the features integrated into the site. Third-party cookies may also be used to collect information on how users use the site, such as browsing patterns, the keywords used to reach the site, previously visited websites and traffic sources, including as part of marketing campaigns. The installation of these cookies is subject to the user’s consent, which can be given or withdrawn at any time through the cookie banner or browser settings.

Consent management

The Controller is not required to ask for the user’s consent for technical cookies, as they are strictly necessary to provide the requested services and for the proper operation of the site.

For all other types of cookies, use is subject to the prior consent of the user, given in accordance with current legislation.

In compliance with Article 122 of Italian Legislative Decree 196/2003 and Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR), the site uses a consent banner that allows the user to:

  • accept all cookies;
  • refuse non-essential cookies;
  • customise their preferences.

Consent can also be given and managed through specific settings of the browser or devices used.

The user can change or withdraw consent at any time through the cookie management panel available on the site, and delete cookies already installed through the browser settings.
