a. What are cookies and how do we use cookies?

Cookies are text files used on the Internet for automatic authentication, navigation tracking or to store specific information provided by users accessing the server, like favorite websites, e-commerce, or shopping carts.

More in detail, they are short text strings sent by a server to a web client (usually a browser) and from the client back to the server (unchanged) every time the client is at the same section of the same web domain. The term "cookie" - literally "biscuit" - comes from the term magic cookie (magic biscuit), a well known concept in the UNIX environment, which has inspired both the idea and the name of the HTTP cookies.

Each domain, or any part of it, may set-up browser cookies. Since a typical Internet page, like, for example, an online newspaper, contains objects coming from many different domains and each of them may use cookies, it is usual to store hundreds of cookies in a browser.

By default, in most web browsers cookies are automatically accepted.

d. How to use Flash Cookies

The website can use Adobe Flash Player in order to offer some multimedia content. On most computers the program is installed by default.
In case you are using some of these contents, Google Analytics stores additional data on the computer, also known as Flash cookies (or Local Share Object) by which the manager is able to know the total number of times you open a certain audio / video file, the number of people using it till the end, and how many people close it before the end.
The Adobe website provides information on how to remove or disable Flash cookies (see http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/security).

We remind you that limiting and / or eliminating the use of this type of flash cookies can affect the functions of applications based on Flash technology.

 

Adwords remarketing tool

The website uses Google Adwords remarketing tool. This tool allows us to publish ads based on users of our Website.

For this reason, some sites call a code called "Remarketing code". This code allows the reading and the configuration of the browser cookies to select what kind of ads you will see, depending on the data of the Web site you visit, such as the selected navigation path, the pages that you have actually visited or the actions performed inside those pages.

Remarketing lists thus created are stored in a database server of Google in which you retain all cookie IDs associated with each list or interest category. Information obtained allows the identification of only the browser, since from this information Google is not able to identify the user.

More information about the remarketing tool is available at this link:
