Purpose of the Cookie Policy

This document contains information regarding the technologies that allow this Website to achieve the purposes described below. Such technologies allow the Controller to collect and save information (for example through the use of Cookies) or to use resources (for example by executing a script) on the User’s device when the latter interacts with this Website.

For simplicity, in this document such technologies are synthetically defined as “Tracking Tools”, unless there is reason to differentiate.
For example, although Cookies can be used in both web and mobile browsers, it would be inappropriate to talk about Cookies in the context of mobile device applications, since these are Tracking Tools that require the presence of a browser. For this reason, within this document the term Cookie is used only to specifically indicate that particular type of Tracking Tool.

Some of the purposes for which Tracking Tools are employed may also require the User’s consent. If consent is given, it can be freely revoked at any time by following the instructions contained in this document.

This Website uses Tracking Tools managed directly by the Controller (commonly called “first-party” Tracking Tools) and Tracking Tools that enable services provided by third parties (commonly called “third-party” Tracking Tools). Unless otherwise specified within this document, such third parties have access to their respective Tracking Tools.
Duration and expiration of Cookies and other similar Tracking Tools may vary depending on what is set by the Controller or by each third-party provider. Some of them expire at the end of the User’s browsing session.

In addition to what is specified in the description of each of the categories reported below, Users can obtain more detailed and updated information on duration, as well as any other relevant information – such as the presence of other Tracking Tools – in the privacy policies of the respective third-party providers (through the links made available) or by contacting the Controller.

Third-Party Cookies

When visiting a website, you can receive cookies both from the visited site (“proprietary”) and from sites managed by other organizations (“third parties”). A notable example is represented by the presence of “social plugins” for Facebook, Twitter, Google+. These are parts of the visited page generated directly by the aforementioned sites and integrated into the host site’s page. The most common use of social plugins is aimed at sharing content on social networks. The presence of these plugins involves the transmission of cookies to and from all sites managed by third parties. The management of information collected by “third parties” is governed by their respective privacy policies, which should be referred to. To ensure greater transparency and convenience, the web addresses of the various privacy policies and methods for managing cookies are reported below.

Cookie Duration

Some cookies (session cookies) remain active only until the browser is closed or the logout command is executed. Other cookies “survive” the browser closure and are also available in 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. We cannot exclude that by browsing the pages of the websites listed above, you may interact with sites managed by third parties that could create or modify permanent and profiling cookies as well.

How to Manage Preferences and Grant or Revoke Consent

There are various ways to manage preferences related to Tracking Tools and to grant or revoke consent, where necessary:

Users can manage preferences related to Tracking Tools directly through their device settings – for example, they can prevent the use or storage of Tracking Tools.

In addition, whenever the use of Tracking Tools depends on consent, the User can grant or revoke such consent by setting their preferences within the cookie notice or by updating such preferences through the tracking settings widget, if present.

Thanks to specific browser or device functions, it is also possible to remove previously saved Tracking Tools.

Other Tracking Tools present in the browser’s local memory can be removed by clearing the browsing history.

Regarding third-party Tracking Tools, Users can manage preferences and revoke consent by visiting the relevant opt-out link (if available), using the tools described in the third party’s privacy policy, or by contacting them directly.
