Our Cookie Policy aims to describe the types of cookies used by the website www.fondazionepedrollo.org (hereinafter “Site”), the purposes of the cookies installed, and the methods by which the user can select or deselect the cookies present on the Site, as well as the services offered. We use cookies to make our Site easier and more intuitive. The data collected through cookies are used to make the browsing experience more pleasant and efficient.

1. WHAT ARE COOKIES

Cookies are small text strings that applications visited by the user send to their terminal (usually to the browser), where they are stored to be retransmitted to the same applications during the user’s next visit. The term cookie refers to both the cookies themselves and all similar technologies. Cookies are used to access online services more quickly and to improve the user’s navigation by monitoring sessions, storing user information, loading content faster, etc.

2. TYPES OF COOKIES

Cookies can be:

• First-party Cookies: These are the cookies set by the Site to allow the user to navigate more efficiently and/or monitor their actions.
• Third-party Cookies: These are cookies set by a site other than the one currently being visited, to allow the user to navigate more efficiently and/or monitor their actions.

Additionally, different types of cookies are distinguished:

• Technical and Analytical Cookies: These cookies relate to activities strictly necessary for the operation and provision of the service (e.g., session cookies for login), cookies related to saving preferences and optimization (e.g., cookies for saving a shopping cart or language/currency choices, etc.), and analytical cookies that collect anonymous and aggregated information.
  • Session or Navigation Cookies: These are used to track the user’s activity on the web. They ensure the normal navigation and use of the Site, allowing faster navigation, making purchases, or authenticating to access reserved areas. They are necessary for the correct functioning of the Site.
  • Functionality Cookies: These allow the user to navigate based on certain selected criteria (e.g., language, products selected for purchase) to improve the service offered.
  • Analytical Cookies: Used to collect information about the use of the Site. The Owner uses this information for statistical analysis, to improve the Site, simplify its use, and monitor its correct functioning. These cookies collect anonymous information about user activity on the Site and how they arrived at the Site and the pages visited. These cookies are sent by the Site itself or third-party domains.
    • First-party Analytical Cookies: Regarded by law as technical cookies if used directly by the Site’s owner without profiling the user, but only to collect aggregate and anonymous information about the number of users and how they visit the Site for statistical purposes and to improve the Site’s performance.
    • Third-party Analytical Cookies: Provided by third parties and treated as technical cookies if the third parties do not profile the user using tools that reduce the identifying power of the cookies (e.g., by masking significant parts of the IP address) and do not cross-reference the collected information with other data they already have.

For technical cookies, the only requirement is the release of the Cookie Policy without the need to request consent. Disabling or deleting them by accessing the browser functions may compromise optimal navigation on the Site.

• Profiling Cookies: These are used to monitor the user’s web browsing and create a profile of their habits:
  • First-party Profiling Cookies: Installed by the Owner to create profiles related to the user in order to send advertising messages in line with preferences expressed during browsing. Given their invasiveness in the user’s privacy, applicable regulations require that the user, after being properly informed about their use, must consent to them.
  • Third-party Profiling Cookies: Used by third parties who access clear information (not anonymous and aggregated) and cross it with other data they already have.

The Site does not have direct control over third-party cookies. The user is therefore advised to check the privacy policies of third-party services listed below.

The use of these cookies requires prior user consent.
