What is a cookie?
Cookies are usually text strings that websites (so-called publishers or “first-party”) visited by the user or different websites or web servers (so-called “third-party”) place and store within a device available to the user (so-called “active” identifiers). Similar functions can be performed by other tools that, using a different technology (so-called “passive” identifiers), allow for processing similar to those carried out using cookies.

Cookies perform various functions and allow user to navigate between pages efficiently, remembering user preferences and, more generally, improving user experience.

Cookies and other non-technical tracking tools are used to trace specific, identified or identifiable subjects to specific recurring actions or behavioral patterns in the use of the features offered (patterns) in order to group the different profiles within homogeneous clusters of different sizes, so that it is also possible to modulate the provision of the service in an increasingly personalized way, as well as to send targeted advertising messages, i.e. in line with the preferences expressed by the user while surfing the net.
