Profiling cookies
These are cookies necessary to create user profiles and can be used to send advertising messages in line with the preferences expressed by the user within the pages of the site. As regards the cookies of the statistics service offered by Google Analytics (see below), they can be considered on a par with technical cookies, for two reasons:
1. collect data in an "aggregate" form, not attributable to individual identified or identifiable users
2. the IP of the user's connecting device (computer, smartphone or tablet) is "anonymised" (modified) becoming unrecognizable, further increasing the level of privacy (see below).

For all other types of cookies, consent can be expressed by the User in one or more of the following ways:

Through specific configurations of the browser used or of the related computer programs used to navigate the pages that make up the Site.

Third Party COOKIES
Google Analytics
They are called "Third Party Cookies" for which Google, which provides the service, is responsible. Google Analytics is a Google service for statistics on visits to the Site and makes data available to the Site owner in anonymous and "aggregate" form, in the sense that it is not possible to link the statistics data to individual people who have visited the Site. For more information on Google Analytics cookies, see the relevant paragraphs on this page. To prevent the storage of the aforementioned cookies, the user can follow the procedure available at the following link: http://www.google.com/intl/it_ALL/analytics/learn/privacy.html

Read more: Using anonymized discovery of IP addresses
Our site uses the online data analysis software "Google Analytics" to collect statistical data on user navigation and improve communication and the offer of its services.

This service is provided by the company "Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA" (simply described as "Google" in this text). Google Analytics uses tracking cookies (both temporary and permanent) (which have various deadlines, as better described on this page) in order to recognize a user who has already visited the pages of our site in the past. The data collected by this cookie on the The use of the pages of our site are generally transmitted to a Google server in the United States (or in other countries) where they are stored.

The data collected by the Google Analytics system concern, for example, information concerning the time spent on the Site, the approximate geographical origin, the entry and exit pages, the origin of visitor traffic, etc. Google will use this data to evaluate the use, compile reports on the activities of our site and provide us with further services related to the use of the site and the Internet.

The data collected through these cookies will be used in aggregate form. "In aggregate form" means that the cookie and tracking systems are never associated with the person but with navigation, therefore no one will be able to associate your name with the pages or websites you visit.

In addition, important data such as your IP address is "anonymised" for your additional peace of mind, as explained below.

On our site, Google Analytics has been equipped with the code "gat._anonymizeIp();" to ensure anonymised detection of IP addresses (so-called IP Masking).

Your IP address (the number assigned to your computer by your internet service provider) is shortened and therefore anonymized – on our initiative – by Google within the member states of the European Union or in other states of the agreement on the economic area European. For this reason, the usage profiles created by Google Analytics are "anonymised" and this makes it impossible to trace the actual user. Only in special cases is the full IP address transmitted to a Google server and shortened there.

Your anonymised IP address transmitted by your browser within the scope of Google Analytics is not merged with other data held by Google. A transmission of this data to third parties via Google can only take place as a result of legal provisions or in the context of data processing on behalf of third parties. Under no circumstances will Google group your personal data with other data collected by Google.

Google adheres to the personal data principles of the "US Safe Harbor" agreement and is registered in the "Safe Harbor" program of the US Department of Commerce.

By using our site, you express your consent to the processing of data collected through Google Analytics and to the methods of data processing as well as to the purpose described above.

You can refuse and/or block cookies at any time thanks to your browser settings, even if this could make it impossible to use some functions of the Site (see how to do it on this page).

“Most Google users have a preferences cookie called “PREF” in their browsers. A browser sends this cookie with requests to Google sites. The PREF cookie may store your preferences and other information, in particular your preferred language (for example Italian), the number of search results you wish to view for each page (for example 10 or 20) and your activation of the Google SafeSearch filter.”

In the end:

“Google uses cookies, such as the PREF, NID and SID cookies, to help personalize ads on Google properties, such as Google Search. For example, we use them to store your most recent searches, your previous interactions with an advertiser's ads or search results, and your visits to an advertiser's website. This way we can show you personalized ads on Google.”

On SID and HSID cookies, google always declares on this page (Privacy and terms) of its site under the heading "Security":
“We use security cookies to authenticate users, prevent fraudulent use of login credentials and protect user data from unauthorized parties. For example, we use cookies called “SID” and “HSID” containing digitally signed and encrypted records of a user's Google Account ID and most recent login date. The combination of these two cookies allows us to block many types of attacks, for example attempts to steal the contents of the forms you complete on web pages.
