This information is intended to make known the procedures followed for collecting information cookies provided by users while navigating the web site.
What is a cookie and what is it used for?
A cookie is a data file that is stored by your device when you visit a website.
Cookies are designed to make operation of the website more efficient and improve performance. They also provide information to the website owner for the purposes of statistics or marketing, mainly to personalise the navigation experience of the user by remembering their preferences. For example, they memorise the language and currency you previously chose in order to recognise you when you next visit the site.
What cookies do we use and for what purpose?
Our website uses various types of cookie and related technologies, each of which has a specific function. The following is a list of the cookies we use, with an explanation of their relative function.
| TYPE OF COOKIES | FUNCTION |
| Navigation cookie | From the first time the website is accessed, these cookies allow the site to function correctly and display content on the device by recognising the language of the country from which the user is connected. If there are registration areas present on the site and the user is registered, they allow the user to be recognised and access reserved areas. Navigation cookies are technical cookies and are therefore necessary to the functionality of the website. |
| Functional Cookies | These cookies allow the user, based on their express request, to be recognised when they next access the website so they are not required to reinsert their personal information each time they visit. In the case of e-commerce sites, if the user has added items to their basket and then closed the session without completing the purchase or deleting them from their cart, these cookies will allow the purchase to continue the next time the user accesses the site (within a limited period of time). Functional cookies are not indispensable to website functionality, but do improve quality and the navigational experience. |
| Analytics cookies | These cookies are used, for example, by Google Analytics to carry out a statistical analysis of how users surf the site via computer or mobile applications, the number of pages visited, or the number of clicks on a page while browsing a site. Our website processes the results of these analyses anonymously and exclusively for statistical purposes, only if the vendor uses the services connected to the browser installed on the user’s computer or other devices used to navigate our site. |
| Third party cookies for marketing/retargeting | These cookies are used by trusted third party companies which allow the user to view advertising banners on other affiliated websites, displaying the most recent products the user has viewed on the website. While the user is navigating within our website, these cookies are also used to display products which may be of interest to them, or similar to products they have looked at previously, based on their navigation history. The use of these cookies does not normally imply the processing of personal data but may allow the connection to the user’s computer of the user or other devices, and trace the saved data: these cookies connect to the browser installed on the user’s computer or other devices used during navigation on our site. |
| Social Network Cookies | These cookies are required to allow the user’s social account to interact with our site. Their purpose, for example, is to show appreciation to the user and to share it with their social friends. Social network cookies are not necessary for navigation. |
