Cookie Policy
Cookies are small text files sent to your computer when you visit our websites. The visited website sends packets of information to the user's Internet browser, which automatically stores them on the computer and sends them back to the server by default on each subsequent visit to the site. This site uses cookies in accordance with this Privacy Policy. Cookies allow us to obtain useful information on how our websites are used so we can continuously improve them for our users. The personal data generated through cookies is collected via pseudonymization and you have the right to object to the processing of such data as outlined below.
We use cookies on this website in order to:
-
Direct you to relevant sections of the website.
-
Ensure the website appears consistent across different browsers and devices.
-
Enable the functioning of complex areas of the website.
-
Track anonymized and aggregated statistical data regarding visits to the website in order to improve its performance.
-
Analyze behavior and activity for marketing purposes and create a profile based on users’ tastes, habits, and choices. This allows us to send targeted advertising messages aligned with users’ expressed preferences during navigation.
For this purpose, we may install cookies that collect data such as the user’s domain name, internet service provider, operating system, and the date and time of access. Below are the general types of cookies we use and their purposes.
Cookie purposes:
-
Technical: used to perform computer authentication, session monitoring, and storing specific information about users accessing a web page. For example, they help facilitate certain procedures when shopping online, logging into restricted areas, or when a website automatically recognizes the preferred language.
-
Analytics: used to collect information, in aggregate form, about the number of users and how they visit the site, thereby generating general service usage statistics.
-
Profiling: used to monitor and profile users during navigation, study their browsing and consumption habits (what they buy, what they read, etc.), including to send targeted and personalized advertising services.
-
First-party: installed directly by the website visited (the site displayed in the URL window).
-
Third-party: cookies installed from a different domain, for example, if the site incorporates content from other services such as advertising platforms.
-
Session: cookies that expire at the end of the browser session (starting when the user opens the browser and ending when the user exits it).
-
Persistent: cookies that "persist" on the device after the end of the browser session, allowing preferences or user actions to be stored for the next visit.
Strictly necessary cookies allow the website to function properly and let you use its content and services with ease: for example, you can navigate the site while keeping items in your cart. Strictly necessary cookies cannot be disabled and do not require prior consent to be installed. These cookies are stored in your browser for as long as needed to ensure the proper functioning of the site and, in the case of persistent cookies, for no longer than 1 year.
Marketing cookies are provided by partners in charge of promotional activities to ensure ads are shown at the right time and on the appropriate page. These cookies are persistent but time-limited. They contain a unique key to distinguish the browsing habits of individual users and are used to limit the number of times a user sees a specific ad and to assess the effectiveness of a campaign. These cookies may also be used to display ads relevant to the user’s immediate geographic location, for example, to indicate the nearest store where the viewed product is available.
Most browsers allow you to manage how cookies are set and used while browsing, as well as to delete cookies and browsing data. Your browser may also have settings to manage cookies on a per-site basis. You can set your browser to notify you each time a cookie is received; this lets you decide whether to accept it. However, if you do not accept a cookie, you may not be able to use all features of your browser software.
To learn more about cookies, including how to view and manage or remove them, visit http://www.allaboutcookies.org (external link). On this website, we may use internet tags (also known as web beacons, action tags, single-pixel GIFs, clear GIFs, invisible GIFs, and 1-by-1 GIFs) and cookies, and we may do so through a web analytics services partner located and storing respective information (including your IP address) in a foreign country. These tags/cookies are placed on various pages of this website.
We use this technology to measure user responses to our sites (including how often a page is opened and which information is consulted) and to evaluate use of this website. Our third-party partners, hosting service providers, and/or web analytics partners may collect data about your use of this website via these anonymized tags/cookies and may compile reports on website activity for us and provide other related services. They may also provide such information to third parties if required by law or if third parties process the data on their behalf.
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google Inc. ("Google"). Google Analytics uses "cookies" (text files stored on your computer) to help analyze how users interact with the website content. This service, with no active advertising features and with IP anonymization, uses a set of cookies to collect information and generate statistics about the site’s usage.
The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transmitted to and stored on a Google server in the United States. If IP anonymization is activated on this website, your IP address will first be truncated by Google in an EU member state or another state that has signed the European Economic Area agreement. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be sent to a Google server in the USA and then truncated there. If transferred by this website’s operator, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, compile reports on website activity for its operators, and provide other services related to website and internet usage. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data. You can prevent the installation of cookies by adjusting your browser software accordingly; however, note that in this case you may not be able to fully use all the features of this website.
For more information on the terms of use and data protection, visit http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/en.html or https://www.google.co.uk/intl/en/policies/; for Google’s privacy policy, visit http://www.google.com/intl/it/privacy/privacy-policy.html (external links). Please note that Google Analytics on this website has been extended with the "anonymizeIp" code to ensure anonymous IP address collection (so-called IP masking).
Google Adwords & Google Remarketing Cookies
This website may use the Google Adwords program and Google Remarketing technology. Both are managed by Google Inc. Google Adwords is a tool for placing ads within Google search pages. These ads—up to four—appear above or below organic search results and are selected by an algorithm that considers various factors including the keywords searched by the user. As a result, users see ads relevant to their interests, and companies using the service get more effective returns. Ads is Google’s main revenue source. Adwords Conversion Tracking also uses cookies. To help track sales and other conversions, a cookie is added to a user’s computer when they click an ad. This cookie lasts 30 days and does not collect or monitor personally identifiable information. Remarketing is a feature that allows you to tailor display ad campaigns for users who have previously visited your site and target offers and ads (with dynamic remarketing) to these users when they browse the web or use apps. In both cases, users can disable cookies in their internet browser settings. In some cases, cookies may cause issues when logging in or navigating within your AdWords account. When this occurs, the best way to fix the issue is to clear your browser’s cache and cookies.
