A cookie is a small text file (a few bytes) exchanged between a website and a browser, normally used by the operator of the website to store information necessary to improve navigation within the site.

Types of cookie

Technical Cookies

These cookies allow the site to work correctly; they are designed to maintain smooth navigation or increase the functionality or performance of the site. They are not used for other purposes and are managed by our company. They are divided into:

Session or navigation cookies: these are designed to ensure normal navigation and use of the site, through different options or services. These cookies allow us, for example, to store the elements that characterize a particular request, make a purchase, sign up for participation in an event;

Functional cookies: these are cookies that allow the User to navigate as a function of a set of selected criteria (such as language, text characters, browser type) in order to improve the service rendered;

Analytical cookies: these are used for statistical analysis on how users navigate the site with their computers, on the number of pages visited or the number of clicks made on a page while browsing the site, as well as reports on demographic data (such as sex, age and interests). They are used to collect data on how visitors (not only those who are registered) use the site and therefore allow us to improve its look and navigation.

In particular, this site uses StatCounter and a Google system called Google Analytics to which un-aggregated data are sent and for this reason informed User consent is required. For more information about Google Analytics, please refer to the link below: http://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy/partners/ You can selectively disable Google Analytics by installing the opt-out component provided by Google on your browser. To disable Google Analytics, please refer to the link below: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout

Profile Cookies

Profile Cookies create user profiles and are used in order to send advertising messages in line with the preferences shown by the User when surfing the net. This website does not use proprietary profile cookies.

Third Party Cookies

When visiting a website you may receive cookies both from the site visited ("owner"), as well as from websites maintained by other organizations ("third party"). A notable example is the presence of "social plugins" for Facebook, Twitter, Google+, YouTube, etc. These are parts of the page visited which are directly generated by these sites and integrated into the host site page. The most common use of social plugins is to share content on social networks. The presence of these plugins involves the transmission of cookies to and from all sites operated by third parties. The management of the information collected by a "third party" is governed by the individual company’s privacy policy to which we ask you to refer. To ensure greater transparency and convenience, please find below the web addresses of the privacy policies and ways of managing cookies.

Managing Cookies

You can decide whether or not to accept cookies by using the settings on your browser. Warning: Disabling all or part of the technical cookies can compromise the use of the site functionalities reserved for registered users. On the contrary, public content remains useable even after completely disabling cookies. Disabling "third party" cookies does not prejudice navigability in any way.

The settings for different individual websites and web applications can be specifically defined. Furthermore the best browsers allow you to define different settings for “owner” cookies and those of "third parties". For example, in Firefox, through the menu Tools-> Options -> Privacy, you can access a control panel where you can specify whether or not to accept the different types of cookie and remove them.
