This website uses cookies and similar technologies to ensure correct operation and to improve the user experience. This document provides detailed information on the use of these instruments by the Data Controller and how users can manage their operation.
WHAT IS A COOKIE?
As stated by the Italian Data Protection Authority on their relevant FAQ page, “… cookies are small text files that websites send to the computer terminals (usually browsers) of visitors, where they are memorized in order to be retransmitted to the same sites on subsequent visits by the same users. While navigating a website, users may also receive cookies from other websites or web servers (so-called "third party" cookies); this happens because the visited website may contain elements like, for example, images, maps, sounds, or specific links to web pages in other domains residing on different servers from the one hosting the requested page. In other words, cookies that are set by websites other than the one you are currently visiting”.
TYPES OF COOKIES
Essential cookies

By using our website, users accept that these cookies can be set on their devices.
Performance cookies
These cookies collect information on how users utilize a website, for example, which pages are most visited or whether error messages are returned from web pages. These cookies do not collect information that identifies visitors: all the information collected is aggregated and so anonymous. It is used only to improve the operation of the website. By using our Website, users accept that these cookies can be set in their devices.
Functional cookies
These cookies enable the website to record the choices made by users (like name, language, or region of origin) and provide advanced customized functions; they can also be used to record modifications made to text size, font, and other web page features that can be personalized. These can be used to provide specific requested services, like watching a video or commenting on an article in a blog.

Profiling cookies
These are designed to generate user profiles and are used to send advertising messages in line with the preferences expressed by users when navigating Internet. Considering the particular invasiveness that these devices can have within the private sphere of users, European and Italian regulations require that users must be adequately informed on the use of the same and give their explicit consent. This Website does not use cookies of this type.
Third-party cookies
When visiting a website, cookies can be received both from the visited site (“proprietary”), and from websites managed by other organizations (“third-party”). A good example are the “social plugins” for Facebook, Twitter, and Google. These involve parts of the visited page being generated directly from the above-mentioned sites and integrated into the page of the host site. The most common use of social plugins is for sharing content on social networks. The presence of these plugins involves the transmission of cookies from and to all the sites managed by third parties. The management of information collected by “third parties” is disciplined by the relative site statements to which you are requested to refer. In order to ensure maximum transparency and convenience, the web addresses for the different privacy statements and methods for the management of the relative cookies for the social networks connected to the present website are as follows:
