What are cookies
Cookies are small text files which the websites visited by you send and store on your computer or mobile device and are then sent to the same websites on later visits. Cookies allow websites to remember your actions and preferences (such as login data, language selection, font size, other view settings and more) so that they don’t need to be specified again when you come back to visit said website or browse its pages. So, cookies are used for login, monitoring sessions and storing information about the activity of the users who access a website, and may also include a unique ID which allows to track your browsing experience on the website for statistical or advertising purposes. While browsing a website, you may receive cookies on your computer or mobile device from websites or web servers other than the one you are currently visiting (so-called “third-party” cookies). Some tasks could not be possible to perform without using cookies, which sometimes are technically necessary for the very functioning of a website.
There are several types of cookies, based on their characteristics and functions. These can be stored on your computer or mobile device for different duration periods: session cookies are automatically erased when you close the browser; persistent cookies stay in your equipment until a present expiry date.
According to current regulations in force in Italy, your express consent is not always needed to use cookies. To be more specific, no consent is required for “technical cookies”, which are the cookies used to allow the transmission of a communication over an electronic communications network, or to the extent strictly necessary to provide a service you expressly request. In other words, these cookies are essential for a website to work or are necessary to perform the tasks you may request.
The Italian Personal Data Protection Authority (see Decision about Simplified Arrangements to Provide Information and Obtain Consent Regarding Cookies – 8 May 2014, hereinafter “Decision”) has included the following cookies among the technical cookies that do not require the express consent for their use:
