Functional cookies
They allow users to browse a website based on a series of selected criteria (e.g. language of the websites) and in this way they facilitate browsing. The information collected through these cookies is anonymous.
Analytics cookies
They are similar to technical cookies if directly used by the website manager to collect aggregated information on the number of users and how these navigate through the website. They are used to optimize website management. The information collected by these cookies does not allow to identify the user.
Enabling technical cookies does not require the user’s prior consent whilst it is mandatory to provide information pursuant to art. 13 of the Code.
Collecting and processing data deriving from the use of technical cookies is mandatory to browse the website. Should the user choose to refuse cookies, the website will not operate correctly and the user will not be able to see the website fully and correctly.

C.2 User profiling cookies
