What are cookies and for what purposes can they be used

A “cookie” is a small text file created by some websites on the user’s computer when the user accesses a particular site, with the purpose of storing and transporting information. Cookies are sent by a web server (which is the computer on which the visited website is running) to the user’s browser (Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, etc.) and stored on the latter’s computer; they are then re-sent to the website on subsequent visits.

Some operations could not be carried out without the use of cookies, which, in some cases, are therefore technically necessary. In other cases, the site uses cookies to facilitate and facilitate navigation by the user or to allow them to take advantage of services specifically requested.

Cookies can remain in the system for long periods and can also contain a unique identification code. This allows the sites that use them to keep track of the user’s navigation within the site itself, for statistical or advertising purposes, i.e. to create a personalized profile of the user starting from the pages that the user has visited and show him and/or then send him targeted advertising (so-called Behavioural Advertising).

Which cookies are used and for what main purposes

The Data Controller reports below the specific categories of cookies used, the purpose and the consequence that derives from their de-selection:

In this case, the social network and web services acquire the data relating to the user, while the Data Controller will not share any browsing information or user data acquired through its website with the social networks and web services accessible thanks to the social buttons/widgets.
