They are used to perform computer authentication, monitoring session and storage of site information (without the use of "technical" cookies some operations would be very complex or impossible to perform).

During the browsing, the User can also receive cookies that are sent by "third parties", or from different websites or web servers, on which may reside some elements (such as images, sounds, maps, links to other domains) that are on the site that the User is visiting.

Purposes of using cookies

  1. to identify the User and record the relative preferences for purposes strictly related to the provision of the service requested by the User;
