2. CATEGORIES OF THE DATA PROCESSED AND PURPOSE OF THE PROCESSING
2.1 BROWSING DATA

The IT systems and software procedures used to operate the Site acquire, during their normal operation, some personal data whose transmission is implicit in the use of Internet communication protocols. This is information that is not collected to be associated with identified interested parties, but which by its very nature could, through processing and association with data held by third parties, allows users to be identified.
This category of data includes IP addresses or domain names of the computers used by users who connect to the Site, URI addresses (Uniform Resource Identifier) of requested resources, the time of the request, the method used to submit the request to the server, the size of the file obtained in response, the numerical code indicating the status of the response given by the server (success, error, etc.) and other parameters related to the operating system and the user's computer environment.

These data are used in order to:
• obtain anonymous statistical information on the use of the Site;
• manage control needs of how to use it, identify anomalies and / or abuse;
• ascertain responsibility in case of hypothetical computer crimes against the Site or third parties.
The processing of such data is legitimized by the need to make the Site functionalities usable subsequent to the user access.

a) following up requests for information (generally following the receipt of an e-mail containing requests for information and questions of initiative of the interested party);

Regarding the purposes referred to in points a) and b), the provision of such data is optional and any refusal will make it impossible for the Controller to implement the commitments undertaken and / or to respond to customer requests expressed through contacts present on the Site.

2.3 COOKIES

Through the cookies, a site remembers the user's actions and preferences (such as login data, the chosen language, font size, other display settings, etc.) so that they do not have to be indicated again when the user returns to visit this site or browse from one page to another.
Cookies, therefore, are used to perform computer authentication, monitoring sessions and storing information regarding the activities of users accessing a site and may also contain a unique identification code that allows to track the user's browsing within the site for statistical or advertising purposes.
Some operations could not be performed without the use of cookies, which in some cases are therefore technically necessary for the functioning of the site.
During browsing on a site, the user can also receive on his/her computer or mobile device website or web server cookies other than the one he / she is visiting (c.d. "third party" cookies).

Two macro-categories are identified:

A. TECHNICAL COOKIES.
These cookies are used for the sole purpose of transmitting a communication on an electronic communication network, or as strictly necessary to provide a service explicitly requested by the user. In other words, these are cookies that are essential for the operation of the site or necessary to perform activities requested by the user.

For the installation of these cookies the prior consent of users is not required, with the obligation to give the information to the user. Technical cookies will therefore always be used and sent, unless the user changes the settings on his browser.

They can be divided as follows
a) browsing or session cookies, which guarantee the normal browsing and use of the Site (allowing, for example, to authenticate to access restricted areas); b) analysis cookies (analytics cookies), assimilated into technical cookies when used directly by the site operator to collect information, in aggregate form, on the number of users and how they visit the site and understand which parts or elements are most appreciated; c) functional cookies, which allow the user to browse according to a series of selected criteria (for example the language, the products selected for purchase) in order to improve the service provided to him/her.

Technical cookies can be:
• persistent cookies: once the browser is closed they don’t get destroyed but remain up to a preset expiration date • session cookies: they get destroyed every time the browser is closed

B. PROFILING COOKIES.
Profiling cookies are designed to create profiles related to the user and are used in order to send advertising messages reflecting the preferences expressed by the user in the context of the browsing. Due to the particular invasiveness that such devices can have in the private sphere of users, European and Italian legislation requires that the user must be adequately informed about their use and express his/her valid consent.

COOKIES MANAGING

At any time, the user may refuse to accept all or some of the cookies used by this Site simply by selecting, on his/her browser, the settings that allow them to be rejected.
Each browser has specific configuration instructions. Further information on the procedures to be followed to disable cookies can be found on the website of the browser provider.
