What are Cookies?
Cookies are small texts that are placed on your computer or smartphone and tablet when you browse the web. The sites you visit send cookies to the browser you use (e.g. Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, Safari, Opera) which stores them and proposes them back to the same sites when you re-visit them. Cookies can also be transmitted to your browser by different sites or web servers, i.e. by third parties, which means that while you browse a specific website there may be elements from other sites that have such cookies such as images, sounds, maps, links to other pages.
Depending on the type of cookie and therefore the purpose for which it is used, some user data are stored, for example to make the use of a site more effective, to enable specific features, to monitor visit sessions.
In particular, cookies allow you to store the preferences entered, avoid entering the same information multiple times during navigation (such as username and password), analyze the use of the services and content provided by a site to optimize the browsing experience and the services offered.
Types of Cookies
Cookies are divided into two macro-categories:
– Technical Cookies, normally installed by the owner or manager of the website, have the purpose of “carrying out the transmission of a communication over an electronic communications network, or to the extent strictly necessary for the provider of an information society service explicitly requested by the subscriber or user to provide such service” (see art. 122, paragraph 1, of the Privacy Code).
The prior consent of users is not required for the installation of Technical Cookies.
Technical cookies are further divided into:
Navigation or session cookies, which guarantee normal navigation and use of the website, allowing, for example, to make a purchase or to authenticate oneself to access restricted areas. These cookies are not stored permanently on the device used by the user and are automatically deactivated when the browser is closed. Their use is linked to the transmission of identification data necessary to allow safe and efficient navigation on the pages. Session cookies do not allow the acquisition of personal data identifying the user in any way.
Analytics cookies, used to collect information on the use of the site, anonymously and to obtain both a statistical analysis of the pages viewed and the behavior of users. This anonymous analysis provides information and suggestions to improve the quality of the site and to make the content that proves to be most sought after and interesting in the eyes of users easily accessible. Analytics cookies can be sent both from the site and from third-party domains and do not allow in any way the acquisition of personal data identifying the user. Analytics cookies, if installed by third parties (e.g. Google analytics), even if they collect data anonymously, are assimilated to profiling cookies, as indicated by the Italian Data Protection Authority.
Functionality cookies: assimilated to technical cookies when used directly by the site manager to collect information, in aggregate form, on the number of users and how they visit the site. These cookies allow the user to browse according to a series of selected criteria (for example, language, products selected for purchase) in order to improve the service provided to the user.
– Profiling Cookies, which are used to create user profiles and are used to send advertising messages in line with the preferences expressed by the user in the context of web browsing. These cookies are particularly invasive in the user’s private sphere, for this reason European and Italian legislation provides that the user must be adequately informed about their use, thus being able to express their consent. Art. 122 of the Privacy Code where it provides that “the storage of information in the terminal equipment of a contracting party or user or access to information already stored is allowed only on condition that the contracting party or user has expressed his or her consent after being informed in the simplified manner referred to in Article 13 of the Privacy Code, paragraph 3”.
