Cookie policy
I use cookies to make my website easier and more intuitive for you. Data are collected from my cookies to provide the best possible and more efficient experience and service to you.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files sent from the website to the browser, where they are normally stored. They are then sent again to the website when the same user visits the website again.
Cookies cannot transmit any other data from the user’s disk; they cannot transmit computer viruses or obtain email addresses.
Every cookie is unique for each user’s web browser.
Some of the functions that cookies do can be transferred to other technologies. In this document I use the word “cookie” to refer to actual cookies as well as to all similar technologies.
Through cookies it is possible to register information about your preferences, such as the pages you have visited or the download of files from the website or other similar actions you may take navigating my website.
First party and third party cookies
There are first party cookies and third party cookies. First party cookies are developed by the owner of the website; third party cookies are developed by a third party and not by the owner of the website.
Types of cookies
There are several types of cookies
– Technical cookies. They are used by first parties to improve the website browsing experience; they are normally installed by the owner or the operator of the website.
They can be split into the following categories:
1) Essential cookies or those required for browsing: these are essential for the basic and normal operation of the site.
2) Analytics Cookies: these cookies, assimilated to technical cookies when they are used directly by the owner or the operator of the site, are used to collect anonymous statistics about the number of users and how they interact with the website, in order to improve the performance of the website.
3) Functional cookies: they allow the user to navigate based on certain criteria they have selected (such as language) in order to improve the service of the website. The user’s consent is not required to install these cookies (you can read more in the paragraph Cookies management, below).
– Profile Cookies
These are used to create profiles for the users and then to send advertising messages that match the preferences shown by the users when navigating.
In order to use these cookies consent must be given. The user can authorise or deny consent to install profile cookies, if present on the site.
In case of third party cookies, the site does not have direct control on each cookie and cannot control them (install or cancel them). You can handle these cookies, though, through your browser (instructions to follow) or the sites indicated in the section “Cookies management”.
The user is therefore invited to verify on the site of third party that is indicated.
