Information on the use of cookies
What is a cookie?
Cookies are small text files that are downloaded to the user's device when browsing a website. Depending on their function and ownership, cookies can be divided into ‘technical cookies’, ‘profiling cookies’ and ‘third-party cookies’.
Technical cookies
These cookies enable functions without which it would not be possible to make full use of the website and do not require the user's consent to be installed (art. 122 paragraph 1 of Legislative Decree 196/2003). They are used, for example, to store the user's position on the page while browsing, to manage the transition of pages from http to https or to remember if the user has already logged in. These cookies do not analyse user behaviour for marketing purposes (e.g. to send targeted advertising) and do not profile the user in any way. When they are used by the site owner they are called ‘first-party cookies’. Technical (first or third party) cookies also include those used to statistically analyse access or visits to the site (so-called ‘analytics’ cookies) when they are used solely for statistical purposes and collect information in aggregate form without the possibility of identifying the individual user.
Below, we list the name, purpose of use and retention time for each technical cookie used.

Profiling cookies
Profiling cookies analyse user behaviour for marketing purposes. For example, to send targeted advertisements while browsing.
This site does not use profiling cookies.
Third-party cookies
In the course of browsing a site, users may also receive cookies on their device from third party sites or web servers (parties other than the site owner). In this case, the cookies are referred to as ‘third-party cookies’. This may happen, for example, because the site contains elements such as images, maps, sounds and specific links to web pages of other domains or that reside on servers other than the one on which the page being browsed is located. These cookies are managed and set directly by the operators of these websites or servers and, in the event of data collection, the data are acquired and managed by these entities. To find out how the data acquired is managed and used, it is necessary to access the information pages issued by these subjects.
This site makes use of third-party cookies to offer the following services:
How do I disable cookies?
This site uses first-party technical cookies that do not require the user's consent and do not need to be deactivated.
In other cases, or if the user wishes to act regardless of the nature of the cookie, cookies that are not strictly necessary can be deactivated by adjusting the settings on your browser (the programme used to browse the website). A convenient and quick way offered by some browsers is so-called ‘incognito surfing’. We advise users to find up-to-date information on the functioning of their browsers directly from the pages written by their developers and/or licence holders. For example, you can search for ‘cookie management + browser name and version’ on your favourite search engine.
