What are cookies?

An http cookie or, simply, cookie, is a small text string sent by a server to a web client (usually a browser), subsequently sent back by the client to the server every time the client accesses the same web domain, which it is used to perform automatic authentication, tracking of browsing sessions and storing information about users, such as favorite websites or the pages of a website that you visit most frequently.

Some cookies are necessary for the proper functioning of the site and cannot be disabled while others, concerning the storage of preference parameters, such as the storage of the user name, can be disabled. However, the advantage of having cookies installed on your PC is that you no longer need to fill in the same information each time you access a previously visited site.

Why and which cookies do we use?

Thanks to the use of cookies, our site wants to offer a more fluid browsing experience tailored as much as possible around the user's preferences avoiding, for example, that, at each visit to the site, the user must enter the same information, speeding up process of finding the cheapest products.

The cookies used by our site can be divided into:

"First party" cookies, managed directly by the owner and / or manager of the website. They are defined:

• Technical cookies, in turn of two types: session cookies and persistent cookies. Session cookies are stored on the user's computer for mere technical-functional needs, for the transmission of session identifiers necessary to allow safe and efficient navigation of the site. They are automatically deleted at the end of the browsing session (hence the name), when the browser is closed. Persistent cookies are stored on the computer hard drive until they expire or are deleted by the user. With persistent cookies, visitors who access the site are automatically recognized at each visit, also to the advantage of the user's fluency in navigation. Among other things, they allow, in fact, to memorize the parameters of searches carried out previously, avoiding having to fill in the same information several times. These cookies do not collect information about the user that can be used for the purpose of sending advertising material, nor do they keep track of the user's navigation on the web, but their installation is a necessary condition for using the site. It is not necessary to provide consent to these cookies, as reported by the provision on the identification of simplified procedures for the information and the acquisition of consent for cookies from the Guarantor for the protection of personal data of 8 May 2014;

• Cookie Analytics: these are cookies used to collect and statistically analyse access to the website, without personally identifying the individual visitor to the site;
