Use of cookies
In order to make its services as efficient and simple to use as possible, this Site uses cookies. Therefore, when you visit the Site, a minimal amount of information is placed on the User’s device, such as small text files called “cookies”, which are saved in the directory of the User’s Web browser.
There are various types of cookies, but essentially the main purpose of a cookie is to make the Site work more effectively and to enable certain functions.
Cookies are used to improve the User’s overall browsing experience. In particular:
- They allow you to navigate efficiently from one page of the website to another.
- They store the username and the preferences entered.
- They make it possible to avoid entering the same information (such as username and password) several times during the visit.
- They measure the use of the services by Users, in order to optimise the browsing experience and the services themselves.
- They present targeted advertising information based on the interests and behaviour shown by the User while browsing.
There are various types of cookies. Set out below are the types of cookies that may be used on the Site, with a description of the purpose linked to their use.
Technical cookies
Cookies of this type are necessary for the correct functioning of certain areas of the site. Cookies in this category include both persistent cookies and session cookies. Without these cookies, the site or certain parts of it might not function correctly. Therefore, they are always used, regardless of the user’s preferences. Cookies in this category are always sent from our domain.
Analytics cookies
Cookies of this type are used to collect information on the use of the site. The Controller uses this information for statistical analysis, to improve the site and simplify its use, as well as to monitor its correct functioning. This type of cookie collects information anonymously on the activity of users on the site and on how they arrived at the Site and on the pages visited. Cookies in this category are sent by the Site itself or by third-party domains.
Third-party tracking cookies
Cookies of this type are used to collect information on the use of the Website by visitors, the keywords used to reach the site, the websites visited and the traffic sources from which visitors come for marketing campaigns. The controller may use this information to compile reports and improve the Site. The cookies collect information anonymously. Cookies of this type are sent by the Site itself or by third-party domains.
Cookies for the integration of third-party features
Cookies of this type are used to integrate third-party features into the Site (for example, comment forms or social network icons that allow visitors to share the site’s content). Cookies in this category may be sent from the domains of partner sites or of sites that in any case offer the features present on the site.
The Controller is not required to request the user’s consent for technical cookies, as these are strictly necessary for the provision of the service.
For the other types of cookies, consent may be expressed by the User, in accordance with the legislation in force, through specific configurations of the browser and of computer programs or devices that are easy and clear for the User to use. The Controller reminds the User that it is possible to change cookie preferences at any time. It is also possible to disable cookies from the browser at any time, but this operation could prevent the User from using some parts of the Site.
Third-party websites
When visiting a website, you may receive cookies both from the site visited (“first-party”) and from sites managed by other organisations (“third-party”). A notable example is 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 for 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 the information collected by “third parties” is governed by the relevant policies, to which please refer. To ensure greater transparency and convenience, the web addresses of the various policies and of the methods for managing cookies are set out below.

Cookie management
The user can decide whether or not to accept cookies using the settings of their browser.
Warning: the total or partial disabling of technical cookies may compromise the use of the site features reserved for registered users. On the contrary, public content can be used even if cookies are completely disabled.
Disabling “third-party” cookies does not in any way affect navigability.
The setting can be defined specifically for different websites and web applications. In addition, the best browsers allow you to define different settings for “first-party” cookies and for “third-party” cookies.
By way of example, in Firefox, through the menu Tools->Options ->Privacy, it is possible to access a control panel where you can define whether or not to accept the different types of cookies and remove them.
