What are cookies?

A cookie is a small text file that is stored on the device (PC, laptop, smartphone, tablet) used to browse web pages (websites). It contains information that helps identify the user and track their activity. For more information on what cookies are and how they work, visit the Wikipedia page.

Does this Site use cookies?

Yes, this Site uses cookies to facilitate and improve navigation (technical cookies) and to collect statistics on visits (analytical cookies).

They can be session cookies (created when you start browsing this Site and deleted when you leave) or persistent cookies (which remain on your device even after you finish browsing this Site), and they can have different durations (from a few hours to several days, months, or permanently).

Technical Cookies: These are necessary for the proper functioning of certain site features. In general, they are used to recognize the user, preventing them from having to re-enter certain information each time they return to this Site, such as (non-exhaustive list): Managing and remembering items added to the shopping cart; Allowing users to access private areas without having to log in; Remembering actions, choices, or preferences made by the user; etc.

Analytical Cookies: These are used to collect information on how the website is used, such as (this list is provided for illustrative purposes only and is not exhaustive): how users arrived at the website’s pages; pages visited; time spent on the site; etc. The purpose is to perform statistical analysis, optimize the website, and monitor its proper functioning. In general, they help us understand how visitors use the site and provide a better browsing experience by improving the way content is presented.

Third-Party Cookies
When browsing the pages of this Website, you may receive cookies both directly from the site you are visiting (“first-party” cookies) and from sites operated by other organizations (“third-party” cookies). This is because certain features of the site or parts of the pages you visit are managed using code generated by third parties.

The presence of these code snippets involves the transmission of cookies to and from all services managed by third parties, whose handling of the collected information is governed by their respective privacy policies, which you are encouraged to review. An example of a “third-party” cookie is Google Analytics: a web traffic analysis service provided by Google, which uses it to collect and analyze information on user behavior on this Site. This information is collected by Google Analytics, which processes it to generate reports regarding activity on this Site. Another example of a “third-party” cookie is the presence of “social plugins” such as Facebook, Twitter, Google+, LinkedIn, etc. The most common use of social plugins is for sharing content on social networks and recognizing users, to provide features such as logging in to the site using social network credentials.

Which cookies are stored, and how can I manage them?

You can control which cookies are installed and decide whether to accept them or not by using your browser settings (Firefox, Chrome, Safari, Internet Explorer, etc.). These settings can be configured specifically for different websites and web applications. All browsers allow you to set different preferences for “first-party” and “third-party” cookies. Generally, you can always access a settings panel where you can choose whether to accept or reject different types of cookies and proceed to delete them. The total or partial disabling of technical cookies may compromise the use of this Site’s features. Disabling “third-party” cookies, on the other hand, does not affect navigation.

Given the vast array of devices used to browse websites (including operating systems, browsers, and more) and considering that features change frequently, it is difficult to provide and maintain a comprehensive, detailed, and constantly updated list of how to manage cookies for every possible combination. We therefore recommend referring to the specific documentation for your browser, operating system, and device.
