PRIVACY POLICY
We have drawn up the following Policy to describe the types of cookies used on our Site and on our platform, and to describe the reasons and conditions for their use. Please note that we cannot offer our Site or our Services without sending some of our cookies to your device. Therefore, you are authorising us to use them when you use our Site and our Services.
WHAT ARE COOKIES?
Cookies are small text files, not necessarily files inside the computer, sent by a server to a client, therefore from a web site to the visitor, and which are later sent back to be read by the server. Each time the user returns to the same site, the browser recuperates and sends the file to the site server. In general, the purpose of the cookies is to improve the operation of the web site and the experience of the user when using it, for example through automatic authentication, memorisation of the language, the size and type of text, location, or information for statistical purposes, since web pages in themselves have no “memory”.
Cookies are not viruses, and use a plain text format. They cannot make copies of themselves or spread to other networks to run and replicate themselves again.
The web site does not intentionally collect any personal data about users. Cookies are not used to transmit information of a personal nature, nor are systems used for tracking users.
If you have not already done so, we recommend you set your browser to automatically update, in order to remove any security vulnerabilities caused by outdated browsers. These could, in fact, be exploited by intruders to manipulate cookies and acquire private information without your consent.
If you share access to your computer, we recommend you always delete your browsing history every time you close the browser. This increases security by deleting sensitive data after your browsing session.
FIRST PARTY COOKIES
We can send cookies to your device through our web site. These cookies, which belong to the site that created them, are called First Part Cookies. They are constantly enabled and are required to run the site’s features.
Session Cookies
Session Cookies are essential for providing a safe and efficient exploration of the site (Essential Cookies). They disappear when the browser is closed and associated data is deleted from the system within an hour. For this type of cookie it is not necessary to obtain the prior and informed consent of the user, since they are subject to and readable only on the domain that created them.
Domain Cookies are designed to recognise the registered user when he returns to the site, once personal credentials have been authenticated. For example, they allow you to fill your cart, easily carry out payment transactions, resolve problems related to security and ensure compliance with current legislation. These cookies are part of the Session group, since the user and password are never stored on our site after you leave and you have to enter them each time you want to access the site.
Persistent Cookies
We also use Personalisation Cookies, which allow us to save your preferences, such as your language, the font size or the geographical area from where you are visiting us. They change the behaviour and appearance of the site itself based on your requirements, improving your browsing. These cookies store information also after the browser has closed, and are called Persistent Cookies.
Performance Cookies
Performance Cookies collect anonymous information about your use of the site and allow us to improve its operation. For example, they show us which pages are visited the most frequently, they allow us to check what the recurring patterns of use of the site are, they help us understand the difficulties you encounter and show us the effectiveness of the advertising that is published on the site.
THIRD PARTY COOKIES
Some of our performance cookies are managed for us by third parties. We do not allow third parties to use cookies for purposes other than those listed above. We use Google Analytics.

Third party Cookies
Third Party Cookies are created by and subject to domains outside our site, and are the real objective of this regulation. Advertisers and others use their own cookies to collect information about your activities or advertisements on which you clicked.

We have no control over these cookies.
HOW TO BLOCK COOKIES
If you do not want to receive cookies on your device, it is possible to manage the enabling of cookies by going to “Settings” or “Toolbar” from the browser’s main menu. This allows you, for example, to disable cookies for all sites, except for those you trust.
