1. What Cookies are

Cookies are small text files that the Website sends to the user's terminal, where they are stored to be then re-transmitted to the Website on the user´s subsequent visit.

Cookies differ on the basis of their use: while some Cookies are strictly necessary for browsing the Website (such as those allowing browsing web pages), others have different purposes and therefore require the user's consent in order to be installed (such as, for example, those used to create user profiles and show personalized advertising).

Furthermore, Cookies can be first-party cookies (if placed directly by C.M.C.) or third-party cookies (if placed by sites or web servers other than the Website).

For a more detailed description of the nature of the different categories of Cookies, please refer to the specific sections below.

2. Categories of Cookies

Technical Cookies

Technical Cookies are necessary to provide the service requested by the user. Therefore, their installation does not require any consent.
Such Cookies include:

  • Session or navigation Cookies, necessary for the browsing and use of the Website (for example, they record your previous access, allow you to make a purchase or log in in a website);
  • Functional Cookies, necessary to remember the Website settings chosen by users, such as language or privacy preferences, in order to improve services and the browsing experience.

This Cookies will be referred to below as “Necessary” Cookies.

Analytical Cookies

Analytical Cookies are used to collect aggregate and anonymous data on the number of visitors and how they interact with the Website, in order to optimize its services.

The use of analytical Cookies installed and managed directly by C.M.C. does not require the user’s consent, as they are considered as Necessary Cookies. Similarly, in the event that the analytical Cookies are set by third parties, the user’s consent will not be required should Cookies be used on the Website only, the third parties reduce the identifying power of analytical Cookies (for example, by masking significant portions of the user's IP address), do not cross-reference the data contained in the Cookies with other information available to them and do not send them in turn to third parties; in other words, the user's consent will not be required when appropriate measures have been adopted to prevent the direct identification of users through the use of third party analytical Cookies. Consequently, the user's consent will be required for analytical Cookies installed by third parties if, by means of their use, the users are directly identified.

This Cookies will be referred to below as “Statistics” Cookies.

Profiling Cookies

Profiling Cookies are used to trace back to specific identified or identifiable users specific actions or behavioral patterns recurring in the use of the functions offered by the Website in order to group the various profiles within homogeneous clusters of different sizes, so that C.M.C. can, among other things, also adjust the provision of the service in an increasingly personalized way beyond what is strictly necessary for the provision of the service, as well as send targeted advertising messages, i.e. in line with the preferences expressed by users while browsing.

These Cookies - which will be referred to below as “Marketing” Cookies - require the user's consent.

Third-party Cookies

Third-party Cookies are placed by subjects other than C.M.C.

Even if C.M.C. allows third parties to access the Website to set Cookies on your device, C.M.C. has no control either over the information collected through third-party Cookies, or how this information is managed by them. The way in which the information collected by these third parties is managed is governed by their specific privacy policies, terms and conditions, or cookie policy, listed in the table below: for further information regarding the use of your data by these subjects, we encourage you to consult the documentation linked in the table below.
