Cookies
To make our website easier and more intuitive to use, we use cookies. Cookies are small pieces of data that the web server provides to the user’s browsing device. Their main purpose is to allow our users to make use of our services.
In addition, the information generated through the use of cookies enables us to improve browsing by helping us identify how to optimize our pages or technical infrastructure.
Our website does not directly generate profiling cookies, i.e. cookies intended to create user profiles and used to send advertising messages in line with the preferences expressed by users while browsing the Internet.
Our website may also contain links, services, images or multimedia components provided by third parties, which may in turn generate cookies over which we have no direct control.
The types of cookies we use
Technical Cookies
The sole purpose of this type of cookie is to ensure communication between the user and the website over the Internet, strictly to the extent necessary to provide our service completely and under the best possible quality conditions.
Data related to cookies generated directly by our website is stored in Italy, depending on the location of the servers used by our hosting service provider. Cookie-related data is managed exclusively within the website itself and is not transferred to third parties.
In particular, the technical cookies managed by our website, which may be handled as individual pieces of information (multiple cookies) or aggregated data (a single cookie), are divided into three main types of use:

These cookies are essential to allow users to navigate throughout the website and make full use of its features, such as, for example, accessing areas reserved for registered users, registering on the website, logging in, using an electronic shopping cart and the related online payment form, etc.
Without these cookies, some necessary services, such as simply viewing a page, may not be available.
Cookies for analysing and managing website performance
These cookies collect information about how users use a website, for example which pages are visited most frequently or whether error messages have been generated by web pages.

Their purpose is to improve the operation of the website and the browsing experience of visitors.

This type of cookie allows the website to remember choices made by users within our website in order to provide advanced and personalised functionality.
For example, they may also be used to remember changes made to text size, fonts and other parts of web pages where applicable.
They may also be used to provide services requested by visitors, such as watching a video or viewing comments on a blog.
