COOKIE POLICY

What cookies are and what they are used for

A cookie is a small text file that a website you visit sends to your terminal (computer, mobile device such as a smartphone or tablet) where it is stored and then transmitted back to that site on a subsequent visit to that site.

Ways to express consent to profiling cookies

During the first visit to the Site, the user can accept all cookies by performing one of the following actions:

closing the banner by clicking on "I accept" present in the banner itself;
accessing another area of the site or clicking on any element of the page (image or link) outside the banner;
scrolling the page.
In any case, through the browser settings, the user can

manage cookie preferences directly within his or her browser, preventing their installation;
delete from his or her browser any cookies already installed, including the cookie in which the consent, possibly given by the user, to the installation of cookies by the sites has been saved. Users can find information on how to manage cookies through their browsers at the following addresses: Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari and Microsoft Windows Explorer.

Cookies are distinguished from each other based on:

- to the entity that installs them on the user's terminal, depending on whether it is the same operator of the site that the user is visiting (so-called "first-party cookies") or a different site, which installs cookies through the first site (so-called "third-party cookies")

- to the purpose of each cookie: some cookies allow the website that installed them to remember, for example, the preferences expressed by the user while browsing or to make a purchase or perform authentication to access restricted areas (so-called "technical cookies")

Other cookies allow the site that installed them to monitor the user's navigation also for the purpose of sending advertising and/or offering services in line with the preferences expressed by the user while browsing the web (so-called "profiling cookies"). Only profiling cookies require the user's prior consent to their use.

First- and third-party technical cookies and profiling cookies and/or other first- and third-party markers are installed through the Sites, as further described in the tables below.

Technical cookies that do not require the User's prior consent

Technical cookies are used to enable the Sites to function and/or to provide the User with a service or function that the User has expressly requested.

They ensure, therefore, the normal navigation and enjoyment of the Sites, allowing, also, to save the preferences expressed by the User and optimize, thus, his navigation. The Sites use both first- and third-party technical cookies.

The technical cookies used by the Sites can be divided into the following subcategories:

"user input" cookies: session cookies used to keep track of the data provided by the User by filling in the appropriate online forms (e.g. the forms present during the purchase process for entering the shipping or billing address) or, as happens in the case of the shopping cart, to remember the items that the User has selected and placed in the cart by clicking on the appropriate button
authentication cookies: cookies used to identify the User after logging in and allow him/her to authenticate and access the content and/or functionality for which such log-in is necessary (e.g: purchase,access to the Personal Area)
other functionality cookies: cookies used to activate specific functionalities of the Sites and to store the choices made by the User regarding the display of pages of the Sites
"cookie consent": cookie that documents the manifestation of the User's consent to the installation of profiling cookies through the performance of one of the actions described in the banner/short notice, recognizes the User upon second access to the site so as not to require consent to the installation of cookies again and has a duration of 12 months. Other types of Cookies or third-party tools that may make use of them

Some of the services listed below may not require the User's consent or may be operated directly by the owner - as described - without the help of third parties.

If among the tools listed below are services operated by third parties, these may - in addition to what is specified and also without the knowledge of the Owner - perform tracking activities on the User. For detailed information on this, we recommend that you consult the privacy policies of the services listed.
