Cookies Policy

This policy describes how the site uses cookies and similar technologies during browsing. These tools allow the site to function correctly, keep certain preferences and understand how pages are consulted. The visitor can manage their choices through the dedicated banner and the settings of the browser they are using.

What cookies are

Cookies are small text files saved on the device when a website is visited. They may contain technical identifiers, browsing preferences and information relating to the current session. They do not run programmes and do not by themselves allow access to documents stored on the device. Some are deleted when the browser is closed, while others remain available until their scheduled expiry or until they are manually deleted.

Strictly necessary cookies

Strictly necessary cookies support essential functions including the following:

• Correct display of pages across different devices
• Session security and protection against unauthorised requests
• Storing consent preferences selected by the visitor

Without these tools some sections may not work correctly. Their activation does not normally depend on prior consent because they are used exclusively to provide the functions requested during browsing.

Functional cookies

Functional cookies allow certain choices made by the visitor to be saved. They may relate to the following settings:

• Language or regional display preference
• Device type and layout settings
• Other non-essential display preferences chosen in a previous visit

Their use makes the experience more consistent across return visits. If they are disabled, some customisations may be lost and will need to be selected again.

Analytical cookies

Analytical cookies collect data on general site usage. The information gathered may include the following:

• Pages visited and time spent on each
• Session duration and entry or exit points
• Browser type and source of traffic

This information is used to identify technical problems, assess the usefulness of content and improve page structure. Where possible, data is processed in aggregated form and does not serve to directly identify an individual visitor.

Advertising and profiling cookies

Advertising cookies may be used to measure the effectiveness of campaigns and display more relevant promotional content. They may record interactions with certain elements of the site and link multiple visits made from the same browser. These tools are activated only when provided for by preferences expressed by the visitor. Declining them does not normally prevent access to the main content.

Third-party technologies

Some functions may depend on technical services, statistical tools or external platforms that set their own cookies. Processing carried out by such parties is governed by their respective terms and policies. The site selects the services necessary for its operation but does not directly control all the operational methods adopted by independent providers. The categories actually active may vary based on the preferences selected.

Duration and storage

Cookies fall into two groups based on how long they remain on the device:

• Session cookies remain active only during the visit and are generally removed when the browser is closed
• Persistent cookies remain stored for a set period determined by their function, which may range from a few hours to several months

On expiry they are deleted automatically or replaced during a subsequent visit, unless removed earlier by the visitor.

Managing preferences

The visitor can manage cookie preferences in the following ways:

• Accept, decline or modify non-essential categories through the tools provided on the site
• Delete or block cookies through the browser settings
• Use browser extensions designed to manage tracking preferences

The procedure depends on the programme and device used. Completely blocking strictly necessary cookies may cause display errors, loss of saved preferences or limited access to some functions.

Policy updates

This policy may be updated following technical, organisational or regulatory changes. The version published on this page replaces previous ones from the moment of its update. Consulting it periodically is recommended to verify any changes to the categories used, the purposes of processing or the methods available for managing consent.
