EXTENDED INFORMATION ON THE USE OF COOKIES

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

DEFINITIONS

Cookies are small text files that websites visited by users send to their terminals, where they are stored and then retransmitted to the same sites on subsequent visits. So-called "third-party" cookies, on the other hand, are set by a website other than the one the user is visiting. This is because each site may contain elements (images, maps, sounds, specific links to web pages of other domains, etc.) that reside on servers different from that of the visited site.

TYPES OF COOKIES

Based on their characteristics and use, cookies can be divided into different categories: – Technical cookies. Technical cookies are those used solely for the purpose of "carrying out the transmission of a communication over an electronic communication network, or to the extent strictly necessary for the provider of an information society service explicitly requested by the subscriber or user to provide such service" (cf. Article 122, paragraph 1, of the Code). They are not used for further purposes and are normally installed directly by the owner or operator of the website. They can be divided into navigation or session cookies, which ensure normal browsing and use of the website; analytics cookies, assimilated to technical cookies when used directly by the site operator to collect information, in aggregated form, on the number of users and how they visit the site; functionality cookies, which allow the user to navigate according to a series of selected criteria in order to improve the service provided. For the installation of these cookies, prior consent from users is not required, while the obligation to provide information pursuant to Article 13 of the Code remains, which the site manager, if using only these devices, may provide in the manner deemed most appropriate. - Profiling cookies. Profiling cookies are aimed at creating user profiles and are used to send advertising messages in line with the preferences expressed by the user while browsing the web. Due to the particular invasiveness that such devices can have in the private sphere of users, European and Italian legislation requires that the user be adequately informed about their use and thus express their valid consent. Article 122 of the Code refers to these where it provides that "the storage of information in the terminal equipment of a contractor or a user or access to information already stored is permitted only on condition that the contractor or user has given his consent after having been informed in the simplified manner referred to in Article 13, paragraph 3" (Article 122, paragraph 1, of the Code). This site does not use profiling cookies.

"THIRD-PARTY" COOKIES

By visiting this website, you may receive cookies from sites managed by other organizations ("third parties"). An example is the presence of "social plugins" for Facebook, Twitter, Google+, or LinkedIn, or embedded multimedia content viewing systems (integrated) such as Youtube, Flikr. These are parts generated directly by the aforementioned sites and integrated into the web page of the host site visited. The presence of these plugins involves the transmission of cookies from and to all sites managed by third parties. The management of information collected by "third parties" is governed by their respective privacy policies, to which you are kindly requested to refer. To ensure greater transparency and convenience, the web addresses of the various privacy policies and methods for managing cookies are provided below.

ANALYTICS COOKIES

WEBTRENDS

Solely for the purpose of monitoring and improving site performance, a market product for statistical analysis of site access is used. It may use cookies, both permanent and non-permanent, to collect statistical information and information on "unique visitors" to the site. These cookies, defined as "Unique Visitor Cookies", contain an alphanumeric code that identifies browsing computers, without, however, collecting any personal data.

GOOGLE ANALYTICS

The site also includes components transmitted by Google Analytics, a web traffic analysis service provided by Google, Inc. ("Google"). These cookies are used solely for the purpose of monitoring and improving site performance. For more information, please refer to the link below:

https://www.google.it/policies/privacy/partners/

The user can selectively disable the action of Google Analytics by installing the opt-out component provided by Google in their browser. To disable the action of Google Analytics, please refer to the link below:

COOKIE DURATION

Some cookies (session cookies) remain active only until the browser is closed or a logout command is executed. Other cookies "survive" the closing of the browser and are also available on subsequent user visits. These cookies are called persistent and their duration is set by the server at the time of their creation. In some cases, an expiration date is set; in other cases, the duration is unlimited.

COOKIE MANAGEMENT

The user can decide whether to accept or reject cookies using their browser settings. Please note: disabling technical cookies completely or partially may compromise the optimal use of the site. Disabling "third-party" cookies does not affect navigability in any way. The setting can be defined specifically for different websites and web applications. Browsers also allow you to define different settings for "proprietary" cookies and "third-party" cookies. For example, in Firefox, through the Tools->Options->Privacy menu, you can access a control panel where you can define whether to accept different types of cookies and proceed with their removal. Documentation on how to set cookie management rules for your browser is readily available online. For example, some addresses for major browsers are provided below:
