Information on the use of cookies
Our website uses cookies and similar technologies to guarantee the correct functioning of the procedures and improve the experience of using online applications. This document provides detailed information on the use of cookies and similar technologies, how they are used, and how to manage them.
Definitions
Cookies are short fragments of text (letters and/or numbers) that allow the web server to store information on the client (the browser) to be reused during the same visit to the site (session cookies) or later, even after days (persistent cookies). Cookies are stored, based on user preferences, by the individual browser on the specific device used (computer, tablet, smartphone).
Similar technologies, such as, for example, web beacons, transparent GIFs, and all forms of local storage introduced with HTML5, can be used to collect information on user behavior and use of services.
In the remainder of this document, we will refer to cookies and all similar technologies simply using the term “cookies.”
Types of cookies
Based on the characteristics and use of cookies, we can distinguish different categories:
Strictly necessary: cookies aimed solely at the transmission of a communication over an electronic network (strictly means that the transmission must not be possible in the absence of the cookie) and those connected to a service expressly requested by the visitor. They uniquely identify the arrival point of the transmission, preventing the information from going to someone else, or those who experience transmission problems or errors;
Performance cookie category that includes all the markers that allow us to provide a better user experience and therefore collect information on the use of the site by visitors, but anonymous data that does not lead to profiling. These include site usage analysis services (such as Google Analytics), advertising, and pay-per-click services;
Functionality cookies: markers that remember user choices and therefore automate some procedures (such as login) or personalize access and navigation of the site (for example, they remember the user’s language);
Third-party cookies
By visiting a website, you may receive cookies both from the site visited (“owners”) and from sites managed by other organizations (“third parties”). A notable example is represented by the presence of “social plugins” for Facebook, Twitter, Google+, and LinkedIn. These are parts of the visited page generated directly by the aforementioned sites and integrated into the page of the host site. 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 the relevant information to which please refer. To ensure greater transparency and convenience, the web addresses of the various information and methods for managing cookies are shown below.

Google Analytics
The site includes components transmitted by Google Analytics, a web traffic analysis service provided by Google, Inc. (“Google”). Also in this case, these are third-party cookies collected and managed anonymously to monitor and improve the performance of the host site (performance cookie).
Google Analytics uses “cookies” to anonymously collect and analyze information on site usage behavior (including the user’s IP address). This information is collected by Google Analytics, which processes it for the purpose of drawing up reports regarding the activities on the websites themselves. Google may also communicate this information to third parties where this is required by law or where such third parties process the aforementioned information on behalf of Google.
