What is a cookie
The "cookie" is a small text file that is usually saved in the browser of the computer, tablet or smartphone used to browse the internet by the connected user.
Thanks to cookies, the server sends information that will be reread and updated every time the user returns to that site. In this way the website will be able to automatically adapt to the user, improving the browsing experience.
You can find more information about cookies, including how you can understand what cookies have been set on your device and how you can manage and delete them, by accessing the following link: www.allaboutcookies.org .
What are cookies used for?
Cookies are used for different purposes: performing computer authentication, monitoring sessions, storing information on specific configurations regarding users who access the server, storing preferences, or to facilitate the use of online content, such as for example to keep track items in a shopping cart or information for filling out a computer form, etc.; but they can also be used to profile the user, i.e. to "observe" their behavior, for example in order to send targeted advertisements, measure the effectiveness of the advertising message and adopt consequent commercial strategies. In this case we talk about profiling cookies.
The same result can also be achieved by means of other tracking tools or techniques, including fingerprinting.
Classification of cookies
Based on the entity that issues them, "cookies" can be classified into:
- "first-party cookie": this is the "cookie" that is saved ("saved") in the user's browser on instructions from the site visited by the user;
- "third-party cookies": this is the "cookie" that is saved ("saved") in the user's browser on instructions from other sites.
Based on the time they remain on the user's device and based on their life cycle, "cookies" can be further classified into:
- "session cookies": they are removed when the user closes the browser and therefore have an extremely limited duration;
- "permanent cookies": they are saved for a long period of time. This type of "cookie" however has an expiry date. "Permanent cookies" allow websites to remember information and settings on subsequent visits by the user, thus making navigation more practical, rapid and efficient.
Based on their intended use, "cookies" are further classified into:
- "technical cookies": they are used to support navigation or to provide a service requested by the user. They are not used for other purposes and are normally installed directly by the website owner.
- "profiling cookies": are aimed at creating profiles relating to the user and are used to send advertising messages in line with the preferences expressed by the user when browsing the internet.
- "cookie analytics": (provision of 8 May 2014 and Guidelines for cookies and other tracking tools of 10 June 2021). The Guarantor has specified that they can be assimilated to technical cookies if used for the purpose of optimizing the site directly by the owner of the site itself, who will be able to collect statistical information in aggregate form on the number of users and how they visit the site.
If the processing of such statistical analyzes is entrusted to third parties, user data must be previously minimized and cannot be combined with other processing or transmitted to further third parties. Under these conditions, the same rules apply to analytics cookies, in terms of information and consent, as provided for technical cookies.
By way of exception, the production of statistics with data relating to multiple domains, websites or apps attributable to the same owner or business group is however permitted both for the first party who takes care of it himself and for the third party who acts on behalf of the first party.
- “targeting cookies”: they can be connected to services provided by third parties such as the “like” button on social media or targeted advertising campaigns developed by third parties who provide services and in exchange indicate that the user has visited the company website or for remarketing actions .
