1. What are cookies
Cookies are small text files that websites visited by the user send to the device used for browsing, where they are stored to be subsequently retransmitted to the same sites during subsequent visits.
Cookies can perform various functions: ensuring the correct functioning of the site, storing preferences, collecting statistical information on browsing, or allowing analysis and marketing activities.
Cookies can be installed directly by the site visited (first-party cookies) or by third parties (third-party cookies).
The Data Protection Authority specifies that cookies and other tracking tools must be distinguished according to their purpose and that, for non-necessary ones, consent must be collected in accordance with the applicable legislation.

The user can modify or revoke previously given consent at any time through the "Cookie Preferences" panel available on the site.
