How to manage consent to the installation of cookies

According to current legislation, express consent is not always required to use cookies. In particular, technical cookies do not require this consent. These cookies are indispensable for operation of the website or required to perform activities requested. On the contrary, profiling cookies, i.e. those used to create user profiles and used to send advertising messages in line with the preferences outlined while browsing on the network, required specific consent.

On the first visit to the website, users’ consensus is collected through a banner that indicates some mandatory information about cookies usage and shows the link to this extended information. Continuing browsing users accept the default settings. In order to avoid hitting the banner at every access, the website uses the technical cookie called “cookie_notice_accepted” which recalls the expressed preferences and expires after 6 months.

Users can manage cookie preferences directly from within the browser and prevent – for example – third parties from installing them. Through browser settings users can also delete cookies installed in the past, including the cookie which possibly saves the consent to the installation of cookies by this website. It is important to note that disabling all cookies, including technical cookies, the operation of the website may be compromised.

Users can find information about how to manage cookies in the most commonly used browsers at the following addresses: Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari and Microsoft Internet Explorer.

Other settings

With regard to cookies installed by third parties, users can manage their preferences and withdrawal of their consent by clicking the related opt-out link, by using the means provided in the third party’s privacy policy, or by contacting the third party.

Notwithstanding the above, users may use Your Online Choices, an online service provided by EDAA (European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance) through which it is possible to opt-out of cookies from companies that participate in the EDAA’s opt-out scheme, or NAI Consumer Opt Out, provided by NAI (Network Advertising Initiative), or other similar services.
