What cookies are
Cookies are small text files that websites visited by users send to their terminals, where they are stored to be transmitted back to the same websites during the next visit. “Third-party” cookies, instead, are set by a website other than the one the user is visiting. This happens because every website may contain elements (images, maps, sounds, specific links to web pages of other domains, etc.) that reside on servers different from the one of the visited site. Cookies are used for different purposes: execution of computer authentication, session monitoring, storing information regarding specific configurations related to users accessing the server, storing preferences, etc. Below you will find all the information on the cookies installed through this site, and the necessary indications on how to manage your preferences regarding them.

Examples of other technologies
Localstorage
is a technology used to optimize browsing that does not collect data on user preferences (e.g., it stores a code that identifies the user session after login, to avoid having to enter username and password on each profile page when accessing restricted areas).
Tracking pixel
A “tracking code” or “monitoring code” is a small piece of code released by some systems in order to be implemented in others to track certain data relating to the user and their browsing session or email opening, in a way that is completely transparent to the user. The data tracked can vary, such as date and time, geographical location, type of device used for browsing, and in more complex tracking pixels, even track the value spent on a purchase order and other useful information for marketing departments of the companies that use them.
Plugin
is a program that interacts with another program to expand or extend its original functionalities. The most commonly used plugins are those of social networks, which allow, for example, the user to follow a page or social profile with one click, to indicate that they liked a web content with one click, and to share it on their social profile, etc.
Widget
is a graphical user interface component of a program, designed to facilitate user interaction with the program itself. The most commonly used widgets are those of social networks, which allow users to easily open social networks in a separate browser window.
These services allow interactions with social networks, or other external platforms, directly from the pages of a website. Interactions and any information acquired by the site are subject to the privacy settings of the third party that created such technologies. To receive detailed information pursuant to Article 13 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 regarding the use of personal data when using these technologies, we invite you to visit the websites of the third-party providers of such technologies.
