2. COOKIE POLICY
Definitions, characteristics and application of the legislation
Cookies are small text files that the websites visited by the user send and record on the user’s computer or mobile device to be re-transmitted to the same websites at the next visit. Thanks to cookies, a website remembers the user’s actions and preferences (such as login data, the chosen language, font size, other display settings, etc.) so that they do not have to be re-indicated when the user returns to the same website or browses from one page to another of the same website. Therefore, cookies are used to perform computer authentication, monitor sessions, and store information regarding the activities of users accessing a website and may also contain a unique identification code that allows you to track user navigation within the website for statistical purposes or advertising. When browsing a website, the user can also receive on its computer cookies from websites or web servers other than the one being visited (so-called “third party” cookies). Some operations may not be performed without the use of cookies. Therefore, in some cases, cookies are technically necessary for the functioning of the website.
There are various types of cookies based on their characteristics and functions, and these may remain on the user’s computer for various period of time. There are so-called session cookies that are automatically deleted when the browser is closed, or persistent cookies that remain on the user’s device until a pre-established deadline.
Based on the legislation in force in Italy, the user’s express consent is not always required for the user of cookies. In particular, “technical cookies”, those used for the sole purpose of sending a communication to an electronic communication network, or to the extent strictly necessary to provide a service explicitly requested by the user, do not require this consent. In other words, these cookies are essential for the operation of the website or are needed to perform activities requested by the user.
Technical cookies, which do not require express consent for their use, the Italian Data Protection Authority (see The Identification of simplified procedures for the policy and acquisition of consent to use cookies dated 8 May 2014 and subsequent clarifications, below referred to as “Provision”) also include:
- “Analytic cookies” used directly by the website operator to collect information, in aggregate form, on the number of users and how they visit the website;
- Browsing or session cookies (to authenticate);
- Functional cookies, which allow the user to navigate according to a series of selected criteria (for example, the language, the products selected for purchase) in order to improve the service provided.
Prior consent from the user is required for “profiling cookies”, vice versa, i.e. those aimed at creating profiles related to the user and used to send advertising messages in line with the preferences expressed by the same during browsing.
Types of cookies used by the Website
We have classified the cookies that we use based on their type of use. They are classified into:
1. TECHNICAL COOKIES
A) BROWSING OR SESSION COOKIESE
These cookies allow the normal use of the website and the services it contains, such as making a purchase, authenticating for access to restricted areas or maintaining personal preferences. This type of cookie can then be distinguished based on their persistence on the user’s terminal: those that are automatically deleted at the end of each browsing session are called “session cookies” (for example the already mentioned online shopping cart). However, if they have a longer life span, they are “permanent cookies”. These cookies are essential for the correct operation of the website and users’ consent is not required for the installation of these cookies.
B) FUNCTIONALITY COOKIES
We use these cookies to provide services or to remember you setting to improve your browsing experience and visit to our website. Thanks to these, we can manage the browsing based on the products selected and/or manage the Wish List. The prior consent from the user is not required to install these cookies.
C) ANALYTIC COOKIES
These cookies collect, anonymously, information on how our website is used and allow us to have a better knowledge of users and to improve the functioning of the site. Analytic cookies are similar to technical cookies when used directly by the website operator to collect information, in aggregate form, on the number of users and how they visit the website. The prior consent from the user is not required to install these cookies.
2. THIRD-PARTY COOKIES
The “third party” cookies are linked to the services provided by third parties. They are used for different purposes such as to analyse marketing campaigns and/or to deliver custom advertising on our website and that or our partners. This activity is called retargeting and is based on browsing activities, such as the searched destination, the displayed structures and more. The third party provides these services in exchange for information regarding the user’s visit to our website. However, the suppliers of third-party cookie s must comply with the relevant legislation. For this reason, please refer to the link of the web pages of the third-party websites, where the user can find the consent forms for cookies and their relative information.
Social network plug-ins
These “social network buttons” are visible on our website to allow you to share content through social networks, including Facebook, Pinterest, Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube, and Google Plus. These platforms store cookies on our website to allow the same to collect information regarding your browsing.
