2) What are cookies and other technologies? 

Cookies are small files that are sent stored on your browser or the device used to access those websites. When users come back to the same website, the browser recognizes the cookies installed on the device and sends back information to the website that created or installed those cookies in the first place. Our Website uses different types of cookies and other technologies to read and store information on the user's device in order, e.g., to perform statistical analysis, customize and facilitate users' browsing experience and remember their preferences.

According to duration, we may classify cookies as follows:

• session cookies, if they are automatically deleted at the end of the session; and
• permanent cookies, if they keep being stored on the user's device even after the end of the browsing session, for a time set by the cookie creator. These cookies are automatically deleted once the pre-defined duration period (starting from the moment they are set, e.g., the first time the website is accessed, if no consent is required, or, if consent is required, the time consent is obtained) has elapsed or the user decides to erase them directly as indicated in the relevant section of this Cookie Policy.

According to origin, we may classify cookies as follows:

• first party cookies, if they are set and managed directly by the website manager; and
• third party cookies, if they are managed by a different domain than the one visited by the user.

Furthermore, according to their function, we may classify cookies as follow:

• technical cookies, which are necessary to the functioning of the website.

Technical cookies also include functionality cookies, which are used, for example, to your add products into  your shopping cart; 
• analytical cookies to understand and improve your browsing experience and to understand where visitors come from.

•  profiling cookies, whose goal is to create profiles related to the user and send or show advertising messages in line with the preferences the user shown while browsing the website. We use this information to make our Website and the advertising displayed on it more relevant to your interests.
