Cookies allow us to collect data that could identify you or your approximate location, the connection time, the device from which you access (fixed or mobile), the operating system and browser used, the most visited pages, the number of clicks performed and data about your online behaviour.

Cookies can be enabled in different ways, depending on their purpose. In some cases, when they are necessary for our Websites to work properly, they are installed during browsing; while in others, when your authorisation is required, they will be enabled when you give us your permission. You can make changes to this consent at any time through the various settings options we provide later on in this Cookie Policy.

Nevertheless, within our high privacy compliance standards, we inform you that we have signed with Google the Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission on June 4 2021, as a safeguard mechanism recognized by GDPR in order to preserve the security of the data which may be transferred to third countries. Moreover, Google participates in the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework. On 10 July, the European Commission adopted its adequacy decision for the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework. The adequacy decision concludes that the United States ensures an adequate level of protection – compared to that of the EU - for personal data transferred from the EU to US companies participating in the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework.
