WHAT ARE COOKIES?
Cookies are small text strings that a website can send, while browsing, to your device (be it a PC, a notebook, a smartphone, a tablet, usually stored directly on the browser used for navigation) .

For each type of cookie there is a well-defined role.
HOW MANY TYPES OF COOKIES DO EXIST?
There are two basic macro-categories, with different characteristics: technical cookies and profiling cookies.
Technical cookies are generally necessary for the proper functioning of the website and to allow navigation; without them you may not be able to view the pages correctly or use some services. For example, a technical cookie is essential to keep the user connected throughout the visit to a website, or to store the language, display, and so on. Technical cookies can be further distinguished in:
- navigation cookies, which guarantee the normal navigation and use of the website (allowing, for example, to make a purchase or authenticate to access restricted areas);
- analytics cookies, similar to technical cookies only when used directly by the website operator to collect information, in aggregated form, on the number of users and the way they visit the site.
- functionality cookies, which allow the user to navigate according to a series of selected criteria (for example, the language, the products selected for purchase) in order to improve the service provided.
Profiling cookies are more sophisticated! These cookies have the task of profiling the user and are used in order to send advertising messages in line with the preferences expressed by the user during his navigation.
Cookies can still be classified as:
- session cookies, which are deleted immediately when the browser is closed;
- Persistent cookies, which – unlike session cookies – remain in the browser for a certain period of time. They are used, for example, to recognize the device that connects to the site facilitating authentication operations for the user.
- first-party cookies (first-part cookies) or cookies generated and managed directly by the manager of the website on which the user is browsing.
- third-party cookies (third-part cookies), which are generated and managed by parties other than the operator of the website on which the user is browsing (in force, as a rule, a contract between the owner of the website and the third part).
