COOKIE POLICY AND ONLINE TRACKERS
This Cookie Policy is an integral part of the Website’s Privacy Policy.
This website uses cookies, including third-party cookies, to provide services in line with the user’s preferences and, in some cases, to send advertising messages. Upon the first visit to the website, a banner will appear containing a short notice and a preference management panel for cookies, as well as a button through which it will be possible to accept or reject allor some cookies. The user has the option to select/deselect individual categories of cookies, etc.
1. Definitions and Characteristics of Cookies
Cookies and tracking systems are pieces of information that websites and apps send or read on your devices during the first visit and are then retransmitted to the same websites/apps during subsequent visits. Cookies are active identifiers, while tracking systems are passive systems that rely on merely observing the configurations that distinguish the user’s device. Through these technologies, websites and apps remember actions and preferences (such as login data, selected language, font size, other display settings, etc.), so they do not have to be re-entered on each subsequent visit.
These technologies are used to perform IT authentications, session tracking, and storing information related to the activities of users who access a service.
They may also contain a unique identification code that allows tracking of the user’s navigation within the website for statistical or advertising purposes.
There are various types of cookies and other tracking systems, which, depending on their characteristics and functions, may remain on your device for varying periods of time: the so-called session cookies, which are automatically deleted when you close your browser, and the so-called persistent cookies, which remain on your device for a predetermined period of time.
In accordance with Applicable Regulations, your prior consent is not always required for the use of cookies. Specifically, such consent is not required for "technical cookies," e.g., those used solely to carry out the transmission of a communication over an electronic communication network or those strictly necessary to provide a service expressly requested by the user (in other words, cookies that are essential for the operation of a website).
Your prior consent, however, is required for "non-anonymized analytical cookies" and for profiling cookies, e.g., those that provide statistical analysis of website usage or that create user profiles to send advertising messages in line with preferences expressed during navigation.
2. Types of Cookies Used by the Website and De-selection Options During your navigation of the Website, you may receive the following cookies:
- Technical cookies: These cookies are essential to allow website navigation and to provide the services requested by the user (so-called navigation or session cookies), allowing the identification of the user within the session. Without these cookies, certain operations could not be performed, or they would be less secure. They are not used for additional purposes and are installed directly by the Controller.
- Third-party cookies: These are cookies originating from third-party websites or servers, different from those of the Controller. Please note that these third parties, listed below with corresponding links to their privacy policies and opt-out mechanisms, process your Personal Data as data processors on behalf of the Controller. These third parties have signed data processing agreements with the Controller, and the cookies have been anonymized by masking the IP addresses. Examples of third-party cookies include:
- Google Analytics: These cookies allow the analysis and improvement of the Website’s performance. This type of cookie is used solely for statistical purposes to collect aggregated information on the number of users and how they visit the website. To disable Google Analytics cookies, you can download and install the browser add-on for opt-out provided by Google Analytics. This add-on instructs the Google Analytics JavaScript code (ga.js, analytics.js, and dc.js) to prevent the transmission of information to Google Analytics. The add-on is available for most commonly used browsers.
- For the use of platforms such as WordPress, Joomla, or other CMS, these are functionality cookies provided by the platform to optimize the display and language of the Website. To disable these cookies, you can refer to the privacy policy of the respective provider.
- Google YouTube
- Google Maps
Profiling cookies are used on the website as indicated in the relevant banner, which always allows for their deactivation if the user so desires. Although the Organization takes all possible technical measures to disable or neutralize any third-party cookies on its website, sometimes these types of files may still be activated through functions that allow you to interact with social networks, and these networks may track your browsing. This could happen, for example, by using sharing functions through Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, and WhatsApp, which are found on the article pages, or by playing YouTube videos embedded on our site. In this regard, we invite you to always refer to the data processing policies provided by the respective social networks.
3. Cookie Settings If profiling cookies/tracking systems are present, upon your first access to any page of the Website, consent to the use of cookies is recorded through a specific "technical cookie," with the characteristics detailed in the relevant cookie table. However, this cookie may not function properly in certain circumstances: in such cases, users are advised to delete any unwanted cookies and block their use through the settings of their web browser. User preferences regarding cookies will need to be reset if different devices or browsers are used to access the Website.
Disabling the Website's technical cookies may result in some services or functionalities of the Website becoming unavailable or not functioning correctly, and you may be required to modify or manually input certain information during each visit.
Failure to authorize the use of the other third-party cookies listed will not affect the functioning of the Website. However, as these types of cookies are sent solely by third parties, and the Website operator cannot control their transmission to the user's device, any opposition to such cookies can only be exercised by accessing the consent forms provided by these third parties, where available, or through the settings of your browser.
As for the cookies directly sent by the Website operator, in addition to using the procedure provided on this page, users can block or delete (in whole or in part) cookies through their web browser's specific functions or opt to withdraw the consents previously given by visiting the “review cookie choices” page located in the Website footer.
