1. INTRODUCTION

Our site uses cookies. For further information on how we use, store, and keep your personal data secure. In this policy, we will refer to cookies and all similar technologies by simply using the term “cookie or cookies”.

2. TYPES OF COOKIES

Cookies are small text files that are used to store small pieces of information. They are stored on your device when the website is loaded on your browser. These cookies help us make the website function properly, make it more secure, provide better user experience, and understand how the website performs and to analyse what works and where it needs improvement.

Cookies can be grouped into the following types:

  • Strictly Necessary Cookies: Some cookies are essential for the operation of the site.
  • Performance Cookies: are used to analyse how people use the site and to monitor site performance.
  • Functionality Cookies: are used to allow us to remember your preferences for helpful features, such as providing the site in a different language.
  • Marketing Cookies: are used to help in providing users with adverts that are relevant to them by collecting information about their browsing habits and site usage. They can also be used to allow third parties to display relevant and personalised ads to users through their networks, to measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns and to limit the number of times you see the same advert.
  • Social Media Cookies: allow users to interact more easily with social media, such as Facebook and Instagram. We do not control social media cookies and they do not allow us to gain access to your social media accounts. Please refer to the relevant social media platform’s privacy policies for information about their cookies
  • Google Analytics: is a cookie-based web analysis service provided by Google Inc, which we use to monitor how visitors use our site, to compile usage reports and to help us improve the site.

3. COOKIES WE USE

Session cookies only remain until you close your browser and ‘Persistent’ cookies will have a set end date, but that will vary.

  • Strictly necessary cookies (and exempt from consent): Session cookie.
  • Analytics cookies (in theory exempt from consent as equivalent to strictly necessary cookies. We have decided to request consent.) Google Analytics uses the following cookies (_ga, _gid, _gat). Even if they are analytics cookies, they are
    comparable to technical cookies (and therefore exempt from consent)
    because they are used only to produce aggregated statistics and in
    relation to a single web site and the IP addresses (at least the fourth
    component) are masked and do not combine with other information for
    further processing. Please see Google’s privacy policy for further
    information. If you prefer not to have data reported by Google
    Analytics, you can install the Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-On.
    You may also opt out of Google’s use of tracking technologies by
    visiting the Google advertising opt-out page.
  • Marketing cookies: The site does NOT use these profiling cookies so no consent is required.

The table below explains the cookies we use and why.

Cookie consent

These cookies are necessary for our website to function correctly: they allow our users to enjoy a browsing experience that takes into account their previous actions.

Cookie Consent facilitates user navigation, recognizing and preventing the cookie information contained in the banner from reappearing in the case of connections to the site made within the expiration period from the user’s own device. By deleting this cookie, the viewing of the banner will not be saved for accesses made in the 31 days following the first connection to the site.

Analysis cookies

Google Analytics (including Google Ads conversion tracking)

_ga, _gid, _gat

It uses cookies to collect and analyze anonymous information on the behavior of use of the site (including the user’s IP address). This information is collected by Google Analytics, which processes it for the purpose of preparing reports for us regarding the activities on the website itself. Google does not
associate the IP address with any other data held by Google nor does it attempt to connect an IP address with the identity of a user. The user can selectively disable the action of Google Analytics by installing on their browser the opt-out component provided by Google.Even if they are analysis cookies, they can be compared to technical cookies because they are used only to produce aggregate statistics and in relation to a single site; IP addresses (at least the fourth component) are masked and are not combined with other
processing.For an overview of Google Analytics click on https://marketingplatform.google.com/about/analytics/?hl=it and https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/analyticsjs/cookie-usage
