Use of cookies and activity files

Cookies are used on this website to improve the relationship between visitors and the content and to enable us to compile statistics on the visits we receive and the use they make of the website. We want to inform you in a clear and precise manner about cookies by detailing below what a cookie is, what it is used for, the types of cookies we use, what their purpose is and how you can configure or disable them if you wish.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small files that are stored in the browser (regardless of the device from which you navigate) used by each visitor to our website so that the server can remember the visit of that user later when you return to access our content.

Cookies allow a website, among other things, store and retrieve information about browsing habits of a user or your computer and, depending on the information they contain and the way you use your computer, can be used to recognize the user. Normally, as this is not always the case, the user's browser stores cookies on the hard drive only during the current session, occupying a minimal memory space that does not impair your computer. Cookies do not contain any specific personal information, and most of them are deleted from the hard drive at the end of the browser session (so-called session cookies).

Cookies do not usually store sensitive information about the user, such as credit card or bank details, photographs, ID or personal information. The data they store is of a technical nature, personal preferences, content personalization, etc. The web server does not associate you as a person but your web browser. In fact, if you usually browse with Internet Explorer and try to browse the same web with Firefox or Chrome you will see that the web does not realize that you are the same person, because it is associating the browser and not the person.
