What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that the websites you visit send to your device, where they are stored so they can be sent back to those same sites during subsequent visits. “Third-party” cookies, on the other hand, are set by a website other than the one you are currently visiting. This happens because any site can contain elements (images, maps, sounds, specific links to pages on other domains, etc.) that reside on servers different from that of the site you are visiting.
Cookies serve various purposes: performing log-ins and other authentication operations, tracking sessions, storing information about specific configurations of users who access the server, saving preferences, and more.
Below you will find complete information about the cookies installed through this site, along with guidance on how to manage your preferences concerning them.

Examples of other technologies
Local storage
This is a technology used to optimise browsing that does not collect data on the user’s expressed preferences. For instance, it can store a code that identifies the user’s session after login, so the user does not have to re-enter their username and password on every profile page when accessing restricted areas.
Tracking pixel
Also called a “tracking code” or “monitoring code,” a tracking pixel is a small snippet of code released by one system so it can be embedded in another. Its purpose is to record certain data about the user and their browsing session—or about the opening of an email—in a way that is completely transparent to the user. The data collected can vary widely: date and time, geographic location, device type used for browsing, and, in more advanced tracking pixels, even the amount spent on a purchase and other information useful to the marketing departments of the companies that employ them.
Plugin
A plug-in is a program that interacts with another program to enhance or extend its original functions. The most common plug-ins are those provided by social networks, which, for example, let a user follow a page or social profile with a single click, indicate that they like a piece of web content, or share it on their own social-network profile.
Widget
A widget is a graphical user-interface component designed to make it easier for the user to interact with a program. The widgets most widely used are those from social networks, which allow users to open the social network in a separate browser window with ease.
These services enable interactions with social networks—or other external platforms—directly from a site’s pages. Any interactions and information that the site may acquire are subject to the privacy settings of the third-party provider that created these technologies. For detailed information under Article 13 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 about the use of personal data when you employ these technologies, please visit the websites of the third-party operators.
