We want to inform you about how we process your personal data through cookies or other similar technologies.
WHAT ARE COOKIES AND WHAT ARE THEY USED FOR?
Cookies are small text files that are stored on the device through which you access a website, throughthe browser usedfor this purpose and that collects information about your browsing on that website.
Cookies have the main function of facilitating and personalizing your browsing experience, but although they are not the only reason for their use, they will also serve other purposes, namely, to assist us in the prevention of fraud, in the optimization of our services and in identifying your preferences so that we can provide you with advertisements and offers tailored to your interests.
WHAT INFORMATION IS COLLECTED THROUGH COOKIES?
Cookies and other similar technologies collect:
- Traffic and location information, including your IP address (Internal Protocol Address), location data captured through a GPS system (Global Positioning System), Wi-Fi access points and mobile network antennas covered by your device;
- Access and session information, i.e. the number generated to identify you as a user logged on to a particular site (Session ID), the date you logged on and the most searched words;
- Information about the device, for example, the operating system and browser used, the date and duration of the visit to the site and the identification of other sites visited;
- Information on user behaviour, such as the number of clicks made and the most visited pages.
WHAT TYPES OF COOKIES ARE THERE?
There are session cookies (temporary) and persistent cookies (long-lasting).
Session cookies are only used for the duration of your browsing session. Once you leave the site, they are deleted, allowing you to continue browsing without having to log in again, even if you navigate to different pages. Persistent cookies, on the other hand, are stored on your device even after you have finished browsing. They are designed to allow you to return to a website without the settings you initially defined, such as the language, changing in this new browsing session.
Cookies can also be categorised according to the various purposes associated with them, regardless of whether they are own cookies (cookies installed by the website you are visiting) or third-party cookies (cookies installed by websites other than the one you are browsing).
So, for example:
- Necessary Cookies: These cookies are always used without your consent because they are essential for the website to function properly. These cookies are essential for ensuring the website runs smoothly, and they address issues related to optimisation and security. They are persistent cookies, as a rule.
- Preference Cookies: This type of cookie saves user preference settings, such as language, so that users don’t have to configure them every time they browse the site. It also identifies users with a unique ID, linked to the time they log in. This lets them browse the site or other pages in their browser without having to log in constantly. Finally, it counts the visits to the site by collecting IP addresses. This makes it possible to carry out statistical studies on the quality of the service provided by that site. These cookies may be temporary by nature, although they tend to be persistent.
- Analytics/Statistics Cookies: These are cookies that make it possible to quantify the number of users of a site and analyse their behaviour in order to enhance the user experience. As a general rule, they are third-party cookies.
- Advertising/Marketing Cookies: This type of cookie collects information about how the site is used. This includes clicks and the most viewed adverts. It allows users’ preferences to be identified, so that the advertising aimed at them matches their interests. These are mostly persistent cookies.
