What are cookies?

Cookies are tools used by web servers to store and retrieve information about the visitors or users of a website. Cookies are text files that some servers install during browsing and that can store information such as: the location from which users access the website, time spent on the website, the device used to access the website (computer or mobile), the operating system and browser used, the most visited pages, the number of clicks made and data regarding user behaviour on the internet. Cookies do not provide references that allow the user's name and surname to be deduced, they cannot read data from hard disks, and they do not carry viruses. Cookies cannot read the cookies on the user's hard disk that have been installed from other servers.

Types of cookies used on the website

Users browsing the website may find cookies installed directly by the website owner or third-party cookies installed by entities other than the website owner, as shown below:

 

• Session cookies expire when the user leaves the website or closes the browser. They are active for the duration of the visit to the website and are therefore deleted from the computer at the end of the user session.
• Permanent cookies expire when the purpose for which they were installed has been fulfilled, or when they are deleted manually. They have a deletion date and are normally used during the online purchase process, during personalisation and during registration, in order to avoid the user constantly having to enter their password.

 

The difference between first-party and third-party cookies depends on who manages the computer or domain from which the cookies are sent, and who processes the data gathered.

 

• First-party cookies are cookies that are sent to the user's computer and managed exclusively by us to ensure the website runs as well as possible. The information we gather is used to improve the quality of our service and your user experience.
•  Third-party cookies are installed when the user interacts with website content (for example by pressing social networking buttons or viewing videos hosted on another website) when the cookies come from a domain other than our website. We cannot access the data stored on cookies from other websites when you are browsing those websites.
