What are cookies and tracking technologies?

When we use the word “cookies” in this Policy, we mean any tracking technology that stores or accesses information on the user’s device, including any SDK, tracking pixel, HTML5 local storage, local shared object, and fingerprinting technique.

Cookies are usually classified:

(A) by purpose (Technical cookies, Analytics cookies, Profiling cookies);

(B) by publisher (First-party cookies, Third-party cookies); and

This classification is important because different legal requirements apply based on how the cookie is classified.

Below you will find the types of cookies and tracking technologies as classified with some practical examples.

A. Bypurpose

Technical cookies

Technical cookies are used solely for the purpose of transmitting messages over an electronic communication network, or to provide a service specifically requested by the user.

In other words, technical cookies are essential for the correct functioning of the website and to provide the service offered to and requested by the user.

For example, technical cookies can be used to monitor sessions, to store specific server access information related to the user configuration, to facilitate the use of online content, or to keep track of items in a shopping cart or information used to fill in a form.

Technical cookies include the functional cookies you might find mentioned while browsing the Website.

Technical cookies do not need your consent.

Analytics cookies

Analytics cookies may be used to assess the effectiveness of an information society service provided by a publisher, to evaluate and improve the design of a website or to help measure its traffic.

In other words, analytics cookies may be used to track the traffic and performance of a website, by collecting aggregate data on the number of visitors and how they interact with the website to improve its services.

For example, analytics cookies may collect information about how users access a website, including the number of visitors, possibly grouped by geographical area, time slot, how long visitors stay on the site for, what parts of the site they visit or other characteristics, the number of pages visited or the number of users who viewed a particular section.

Please consider that if analytics cookies are properly anonymized, they can be installed without your previous explicit consent.

Profiling cookies

Profiling cookies may be used to trace specific actions or recurring behavioral patterns in the use of the offered functionalities back to specific, identified or identifiable individuals for the purpose of grouping the different profiles within homogeneous, multi-sized clusters. This is aimed in turn to enable a company to provide increasingly customized services beyond what is strictly necessary for the delivery of the service and also send targeted advertising messages in line with the preferences expressed by the user during their web-browsing activities.

In other words, profiling cookies may be used to convey behavioral advertising, measure the effectiveness of ads, or to customize the services offered in line with the user’s monitored behavior.

For example, profiling cookies can be used to create user profiles and offer content in line with the user’s interests, or to send targeted ads or messages.

Profiling cookies include the performance, marketing and social media cookies you might find mentioned while browsing the Website.

Profiling cookies need your explicit consent.
