This document entirely cancels and replaces any previous indications provided by the company regarding cookies, which are therefore to be considered entirely outdated.

Definition of “Cookie”

Cookies are text strings (small files), which the visited websites (“first-party”) or different websites or web servers (“third-party”) place and store within a user’s terminal device (PC, tablet, smartphone, etc.), to be transmitted back to the same sites that sent them during the user’s next visit.

The cookies used on this website are of the following types:

These cookies are necessary to improve the usability of the website, and their use does not require the user’s consent.
  2. Anonymous analytical cookies: They are tools for anonymous and aggregated web analysis that provide information on how users use the website, how they arrived at it, the number and duration of visits, etc. These cookies allow for improvements to the website, facilitating user access, and generating statistics.
