COOKIE POLICY
COOKIE POLICY
What they are and for what purposes they are collected
A “cookie” is a small text file created on the user's computer when they access a particular website, with the purpose of storing and transporting information. Cookies are sent by a web server (which is the computer running the visited website) to the user's browser (Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, etc.) and stored on the user's computer; they are then sent back to the website during subsequent visits. While browsing, the user may also receive cookies from different sites (so-called third-party cookies), set directly by the managers of those websites and used for the purposes and in the ways defined by them.
Types of cookies used on this site
This site uses cookies only to ensure and facilitate navigation and use of the content, and to collect information, in aggregate form, about visits. Cookies are not used in any way for profiling purposes, including with reference to the installation, through the site, of third-party cookies that may be used by these parties, entirely independently, for their own profiling purposes.
Owner's cookies
This site uses only technical cookies, for which, pursuant to art. 122 of the privacy code and the Provision of the Guarantor of May 8, 2014, no consent is required from the data subject. More precisely, the site uses a technical cookie that facilitates user navigation by recognizing the user and preventing the short cookie information notice contained in the banner from reappearing in the event of connections to the site made within the expiration period of the cookie itself. The cookie is activated by clicking "CLOSE" on the banner or by clicking any element on the page, and will be stored for 365 days. After this period or if the user deletes the cookie from their browser, the site will show the banner again until the user clicks "CLOSE" (or any element on the page) once more.
Third-party cookies
Through this site, some third-party cookies, including profiling cookies, are installed. They are activated by clicking "CLOSE" on the banner or by clicking any element on the page.
Google Analytics
The site uses Google Analytics for statistical purposes only. This is a web analysis service provided by Google Inc. (“Google”) that uses cookies, which are stored on the user's computer to allow aggregated statistical analysis regarding the use of the visited website; it should also be noted that in addition to cookies, Google also uses a pixel tag.
The data generated by Google Analytics is stored by Google as indicated in the available Privacy Policy.
As expressly indicated by the Privacy Guarantor in the "Clarifications regarding the implementation of the legislation on cookies" of June 5, 2015, sites that use, for mere statistical purposes, analytical cookies created and made available by third parties are not subject to the obligations and requirements provided by the legislation (notification to the Guarantor first and foremost) if tools are adopted to reduce the identifying power of the analytical cookies they use (for example, by masking significant portions of the IP address) and provided that the use of such cookies is subject to contractual constraints between sites and third parties, in which there is an express reference to the third party's commitment to use them exclusively for the provision of the service, to store them separately and not to "enrich" or "cross-reference" them with other information in their possession.
The owner of this website has decided to use the IP anonymization feature provided by Google and has accepted the Data Processing Amendment (Google Analytics Data Processing Amendment v20130906) made available by Google Analytics in compliance with Directive 95/46/EC, whereby Google undertakes to process data according to the requests of the client/website owner and not to share them with other additional services unless the Client specifically requests it through the service settings. In this regard, users are informed that the owner of this website has not linked Google Analytics to any additional service and that no advertising or data sharing options with Google have been activated.
In light of the measures adopted, the Google Analytics service, used by this site for statistical purposes only, is activated upon landing, and no user consent is required for the release of the related cookies.

Social network buttons and widgets
Social buttons are those particular "buttons" present on the site that display the icons of social networks (for example: Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and Instagram) and allow users browsing the site to interact with a "click" directly with the social platforms.
The social buttons used on the site are links that refer to the owner's accounts on the depicted social networks. By using these buttons, third-party cookies are therefore not installed. However, the links are provided where users can view the privacy policy regarding the management of data by the Social Networks to which the buttons refer.
The site incorporates widgets from Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Twitter and these services involve the installation of cookies, including profiling cookies, by Meta Platforms INC, Google LLC and Twitter INC respectively. No information is shared by the page in which the widget is embedded. The cookie policies of these social networks are available at the following links:
YouTube
Provision of data
Except for the technical cookies strictly necessary for normal browsing, the provision of data is left to the will of the user who decides to browse the site after viewing the brief information contained in the appropriate banner.
The data subject can therefore avoid the installation of cookies by keeping the banner (thus refraining from closing it by clicking on the "CLOSE" button or on any element present on the page), as well as through the appropriate functions available on their browser.

Each browser has different procedures for managing settings. The user can obtain specific instructions through the links below.
Microsoft Windows Explorer

The deactivation of third-party cookies is also possible through the methods made available directly by the third-party company responsible for this processing.
