Usually, this information does not directly identify you, but it can give you a more personalized web experience.
WHAT ARE COOKIES?
Cookies are small text files containing minimal information sent to the browser and stored on the user's computer, phone, or other device every time they visit a website. Cookies send information back to the referring website on each link.
Cookies can be permanent (persistent cookies) if they remain on the computer until the user deletes them, or temporary (session cookies) if they are disabled when the browser is closed. Cookies can also be first-party cookies if set by the visited website, or third-party cookies if inserted by a different website.
HOW WE USE COOKIES
We use cookies to improve the functionality of our websites, allow the user to navigate easily between pages, remember their preferences, and ensure the user always has an optimal browsing experience.
COOKIES USED AND THEIR PURPOSES
The cookies used on our websites can be classified as follows (see the cookie guide prepared by the ICC, International Chamber of Commerce):
Technical cookies - Essential or necessary
These cookies are essential to allow the user to navigate the site and use the requested services, such as access to protected areas of the site.
Essential cookies are first-party cookies and can be permanent or temporary. We use this type of cookie to manage the registration and login process for users. Without these cookies, the user would not be able to access the requested services and our sites would not function properly.
Functionality or preference cookies
These cookies allow the site to remember the visitors' choices (such as username, language, or country of access) and provide more personalized functionality. Functionality cookies can also be used to provide services requested by the user, such as accessing a video or posting a comment on a blog. The information used by these cookies is anonymous and it is not possible to track the browsing of users on other sites.
We use these cookies to:
- remember if a particular service has already been provided to the user
- improve the overall experience on the site by remembering the user's preferences.
These cookies can be permanent or temporary, first or third party. Essentially, these cookies remember the individual choices made by users to improve their browsing experience.
Technical cookies - Performance or statistics
Performance cookies collect information on the use of a website by users, such as which pages are visited most frequently. These cookies do not store identifying information about individual visitors, only aggregated and anonymous data.
We use these cookies for:
- statistical purposes, to understand how our sites are used

These cookies can be permanent or temporary, first or third party. Essentially, these cookies collect anonymous information on the pages visited and the advertisements displayed.
This site uses the Google Analytics service to generate statistics on access to the site's pages and for internal traffic analysis. The data provided by Google Analytics does not allow individual users interacting on the site's pages to be identified in any way, but reports aggregated information on the navigation dynamics within the site, the number of unique users, and the pages displayed.
