Introduction

This document contains information regarding the technologies that enable this website to achieve the purposes described below. Such technologies allow the Data Controller to collect and store information (for example, through the use of Cookies) or to use resources (for example, by executing a script) on the User’s device when the latter interacts with this website.

For simplicity, in this document such technologies are collectively referred to as “Tracking Tools,” unless there is reason to differentiate.
For example, although Cookies can be used in both web and mobile browsers, it would be inappropriate to speak of Cookies in the context of mobile applications, as they are Tracking Tools that require the presence of a browser. Therefore, within this document, the term Cookie is used only to specifically indicate that particular type of Tracking Tool.

Some of the purposes for which Tracking Tools are used may also require the User’s consent. If consent is given, it can be freely revoked at any time by following the instructions contained in this document.

This website uses Tracking Tools managed directly by the Data Controller (commonly known as “first-party” Tracking Tools) and Tracking Tools that enable services provided by third parties (commonly known as “third-party” Tracking Tools). Unless otherwise specified in this document, such third parties have access to their respective Tracking Tools.
The duration and expiration of Cookies and other similar Tracking Tools may vary depending on the settings of the Data Controller or each third-party provider. Some of them expire at the end of the User’s browsing session.
In addition to what is specified in the description of each of the categories listed below, Users can obtain more detailed and updated information on duration, as well as any other relevant information—such as the presence of other Tracking Tools—in the privacy policies of the respective third-party providers (via the links provided) or by contacting the Data Controller.
