For all other types of cookies, the user’s prior consent to collect cookie is legally required.

Which cookies are used and for what purposes?

The site uses different kinds of first-party cookies (cookies created and managed by the Manager) and the third-parties’ cookies (cookies created and managed by third parties based on their own privacy policies and which are not under the Manager’s control) listed below.

  • Cookiebot

Each type of cookies used on our Site has its own function as summarized in the table below:

TYPE OF COOKIE FUNCTION
Navigation Cookies Starting with the first access, these cookies allow the site to work properly and make it possible for the user to view content on his/her device by recognising the language and market of the country from which the user is connected. They also make it possible to recognise registered users and allow them to access services in dedicated areas. Navigation cookies are technical cookies and are necessary for the site to function.
Functional Cookies Based on the user’s express request, these cookies make it possible to recognise the user on subsequent visits, so that he/she does not have to re-enter his/her data on each visit (e.g.: “Remember me next time”). If the final user places articles in his/her cart and ends the session without completing the purchase and without removing them, these cookies make it possible to continue shopping the next time the user accesses the site (within a limited period of time), by keeping track of the cart. Functional cookies are not essential for the site to work, but improve navigation quality and the navigation experience.
Analytical Cookies First-party cookies of this type are owned by the Manager and are used to collect anonymous, aggregated data. These cookies are used to produce statistical analyses of how users navigate the site. The Manager uses the results of these analyses anonymously and solely for statistical purposes.
First- and Third-party Marketing and Profiling Cookies These cookies are intended to create profiles about the user to send commercial messages that match preferences expressed during the visit or to improve the navigation experience. While the final user navigates the site, these cookies are useful for showing him/her products of interest or that are similar to those the user viewed. Third-party cookies are cookies sent by third-party companies. These cookies make it possible to offer a business proposal on other affiliated websites (retargeting). The Manager has no control over the information provided by third-party cookies and has no access to that data. This information is controlled in its entirety by the third-party companies, as described in their respective policies.
Social Network Cookies These cookies are necessary to allow the final user’s social media account to interact with the site. For example, they are necessary to express “likes” and share them on social media. Social network cookies are not necessary for navigation. For additional information about social networks’ cookie use policies, their respective privacy and cookie policies can be consulted as indicated below: Facebook: https://it-it.facebook.com/about/privacy/Google: http://www.google.com/intl/it/policies/privacy/Instagram: https://help.instagram.com/1896641480634370?ref=ig YouTube: https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/7671399?p=privacy_guidelines&hl=it
