WHAT ARE COOKIES?
A cookie is a file that is downloaded onto your computer or device when you access certain web pages. Cookies allow a website, among other things, to store and retrieve information about the browsing habits of a user or their device and, depending on the information they contain and how your device is used, may be used to recognise the user. Cookies are associated solely with an anonymous user and their computer or device and do not provide references that would enable the identification of personal data.
COOKIES SUBJECT TO REGULATION AND EXEMPT COOKIES
Under the EU Directive, cookies that require informed consent from the user are analytical cookies and advertising and affiliate cookies. Technical cookies and those necessary for the functioning of the website or the provision of services expressly requested by the user are exempt from this requirement.
TYPES OF COOKIES
a) According to the entity that manages them, there are first-party cookies (those sent to the user’s terminal device from a computer or domain managed by the publisher itself, from which the service requested by the user is provided) and third-party cookies (those sent to the user’s terminal device from a computer or domain that is not managed by the publisher but by another entity that processes the data obtained through the cookies).
b) According to the length of time they remain active, there are session cookies (designed to collect and store data while the user accesses a web page) and persistent cookies (where data are stored on the terminal device and may be accessed and processed for a period defined by the cookie controller — ranging from a few minutes to several years).
c) According to the purpose for which they process the information they collect, cookies may be:
– Technical cookies (necessary for the use of the website and the provision of the contracted service),
– Personalisation cookies (which allow the user to access the service with predefined characteristics, such as language, browser type, regional settings, etc.)
– Analytical cookies (which collect information on how the website is used),
– Advertising cookies (which collect information on users’ preferences and personal choices),
– Affiliate cookies (which enable tracking of visits from other websites with which the site has established an affiliate agreement).
