A "cookie" is a small text file created by some websites on a user's computer when the user accesses a particular site, for the purpose of storing and transporting information. Cookies are sent from a web server (which is the computer on which the visited website is running) to the user's browser (Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, etc.) and stored on the user's computer; they are, then, re-sent to the website at the time of subsequent visits. 
Some operations could not be accomplished without the use of cookies, which, in some cases, are therefore technically necessary. In other cases, the site uses cookies to facilitate and facilitate navigation by the user or to enable the user to take advantage of specifically requested services. 
Cookies may remain in the system for long periods of time and may also contain a unique identification code. This allows the sites that use them to keep track of the user's navigation within the site itself, for statistical or advertising purposes, that is, to create a personalized profile of the user from the pages he or she has visited and then show and/or send him or her targeted advertising (so-called Behavioural Advertising).

The Owner reports below the specific categories of cookies used, the purpose and the consequence of de-selecting them:

Third-party cookies are also operational on this website, i.e. cookies created by a website other than the one the user is currently visiting, as descripted in the table above.

Social buttons

Such services issue "third-party cookies." Below are links to the privacy policies of the most commonly used social networks and websites to which the buttons link:
