Cookie Policy
Cookie usage on this site
Cookie usage on this site will be described in this cookie policy.
Before doing so, we would like to note that the use of so-called
session cookies (which are not stored permanently on the user's
computer and disappear when the browser is closed) allows the
transmission of session identifiers (made up of random numbers
generated by the server), which are required for the safe and efficient
exploration of the site.
The so-called session cookies used on this site do not utilise other IT
techniques that could potentially compromise the browsing privacy of
users and do not permit the acquisition of the user's personal
identifying data.
What is a cookie?
In order to provide you with all the relevant information concerning
cookies and their use, even if only potential, and to make you aware of
how to change your browser settings for cookie usage, we ask that you
read this detailed description.
Browser cookies:
Cookies are packets of information that the website places on your
browsing device when you visit a page. They may involve the
transmission of information between the website and your device, or
between your device and other websites that work on our behalf or
privately, in accordance with the corresponding privacy policy. We may
use cookies to group the information that we collect about you. You can
decide whether to receive a notification every time that a cookie is
sent or to disenable all cookies by changing the settings on your
browser. However, disenabling cookies may mean that some of our
services will not function correctly and you will not be able to have
access to numerous functions that have been designed in order to
optimise your browsing experience on the website. For more information
on how to manage or disable browser cookies, please consult the last
section of this Cookie Policy.
We use various kinds of cookies that have different functions. In
regards to technical cookies, we may use proprietary persistent cookies
and session cookies for the sole purpose of aiding efficient site
navigation. Periodically we may publish an updated table indicating the
type of cookies used and useful references to make you aware of the
specific purposes of use.
Here is a summarised description of the main types of technologically
feasible cookies.
1. Strictly necessary cookies (technical cookies)
These cookies are fundamental in order to be able to browse the website
and utilise some of its functions. Without cookies that are strictly
necessary, online services that are normally offered by the site could
become inaccessible if their provision is based exclusively on these
kinds of cookies. In fact, this kind of cookies allows the user to
browse efficiently between pages on the website and to use the
different options and services offered. For example, cookies allow for
a session to be identified, reserved areas to be accessed, for elements
making up a previously formulated request to be saved, for a purchase
order to be completed or a quote to be memorised.
Consent is not required for technical cookies, as they are essential to
assuring the requested services. It is possible to block or remove
technical cookies by changing the settings in your browser, if the
cookies are disabled or deleted. However, by carrying out these steps
you may not be able to access certain areas of the website or to
utilise some of the offered services.
For more information we would like to refer you again to the privacy
policy found on the site.
2. Performance cookies (analytics cookies)
We (or service providers that operate on our behalf) may place
performance cookies on your browsing device. The information gathered
via performance cookies is used exclusively by us or on our behalf.
Performance cookies collect anonymous information about the way in
which users utilise the website and its various functions. For example,
our performance cookies collect information concerning the web pages
that you visit most often and about our advertisements that appear on
other websites that you interact with, as well as verifying whether you
open or read communications we send you and if you receive error
messages. The information collected may be used to personalise your
online experience by showing you specific content. Performance cookies
are also used to limit the number of times you see the same
advertisement. Our performance cookies do not collect personal
information.
A link to our Cookie Policy is available on the website. By continuing
to use this website and its functions, you are authorising us (and
advertisers external to this website) to place performance cookies on
your browsing device.
To delete or manage performance cookies, please consult the last
section of this Cookie Policy.
In particular, the website uses Google Analytics, which is an analysis
tool from Google that helps website and app owners to understand how
visitors interact with their content. Google may use a set of cookies
to collect information and generate usage statistics for the website
without personally identifying the single visitors.
In addition to generating reports on the usage statistics of the
websites, the tag pixel of Google Analytics may be used, together with
other cookies used for advertising that have been described above, to
allow us to show the most relevant results on Google owned sites (like
Google Search) and throughout the web.
For more information you can visit this website Analytics cookies and privacy.
3. Functional cookies (profiling cookies)
We reserve the right to use the functional cookies that are placed in
your browsing device for ourselves (or service providers that work on
our behalf). If we were to use these cookies, in no instance would we
share the information gathered via the functional cookies for any
advertisers or third parties.
These cookies are used to store choices you have made (language
preference, country or other online settings) and to provide
personalised or optimised functions selected by the user. Functional
cookies may be used to provide you with online services or to avoid
offering you services that you have refused in the past.
Moreover, we would like to inform you that it is technically possible
to authorise advertisers or third parties to supply content and other
online experiences via this website. In this instance, the third party
in question could place its own functional cookies on your device and
make use of them, in the same way as us, in order to provide you with
personalised functions and to optimise your user experience. By
selecting personalised options or settings or optimised functions you
are authorising us to use the functional cookies needed to offer you
these experiences.
Deleting functional cookies, preferences or selected settings means
these will not be saved for future visits.
In the instance that third party cookies were to be used, we reserve
the right to explain the links to the privacy policies prepared by said
third parties in detail.
The site may use remarketing tools from third parties. In this instance
some of the pages on the site may include a code defined as a
"remarketing code". This code allows browser cookies to be read and
configured so that the kind of advertisement you will see can be
determined, based on the data concerning your visit to the site, such
as the navigation route chosen, the pages you actually visited or the
actions carried out on said pages.
The remarketing lists that are created are kept in a database on Google
servers where all the IDs of the cookies associated to every list or
category of interest is kept. The information obtained only allows for
the browser to be identified, due to the fact that third parties are
not able to identify the user with this information.
These tools allow for personalised advertisements to be published based
on user visits to our site.
Authorisation for the collection and storage of data may be withdrawn
at any time. Users may disable cookie usage from Google via the
specific setting options on the different browsers.

technologies. By changing your browser settings you can accept or
