What are Cookies

Cookies are small bits of data that a webpage stores on the user’s computer (usually in browsers such us Chrome, Opera, Mozilla, Firefox, Edge, etc), so that each time the user logs on to a webpage, it recovers this information and offers the user services related to them. A typical example of such information is the user’s preferences on a webpage, as these are stated by the user's choices on that site (such as selecting specific "buttons", searches, advertisements etc).

General classification information for Cookies

There are two general cookies' categories:

• Technical cookies: Essential for a site to run properly and for a user to browse the site. Without them, users may not be able to properly view the pages or use certain services.
• Profiling Cookies: Used to create a user profile so as to send promotional messages according to the preferences displayed by the user while browsing.

Cookies, either "technical" or "profiling", can also be classified as:

• "session" cookies, which are deleted immediately after the browser closes,
• "permanent" cookies, which remain in the browser for a certain amount of time. These cookies are used, for example, to identify the device that was connected to a site, thus facilitating user authentication procedures,
• "proprietary" cookies, which are created and managed directly by the operator of the site on which the user is browsing,
• "third party" cookies, which are created and managed by parties other than the operator of the site on which the user is browsing.

Our website uses “technical” cookies and specifically, the following types of cookies:

1. Proprietary, session, or permanent cookies, which are necessary to browse the site, for internal security and system management purposes.
2. Third-party cookies, permanent cookies, used by the site to send statistical information to Google Analytics, through which the Company can perform a statistical analysis of access / visits to the site. The cookies used exclusively serve statistical purposes and collect information in an aggregated form. By using two cookies, permanent cookies and session cookies (which expire once the browser is closed), Google Analytics also saves a log with the hours each visit started and ended. You can prevent Google from collecting data through cookies and subsequent data processing by uploading and installing the plug-in for the browser from the following address: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

You can choose for which cookies to give your consent to, by clicking here. In the case of third-party cookies, users give or refuse to give their consent directly to the owner of that cookie, to which the Company simply refers: most third-party cookies on the site can be disabled by users through their own browser or by visiting the websites of their service providers directly using the links listed in the table below. In any case, we note that disabling cookies may affect your ability to use the site and / or make the most of all available features and services.
