1. What do we mean by "cookie"?

In short: Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer by websites that you visit. They are widely used in order to make websites work, and to provide organizations with information on you and on your browsing activities.

In detail: Cookies have several functions such as allowing you to navigate efficiently on a website and remembering your choices and the goods and services you purchased. Thanks to cookies, we can:

• improve the knowledge we have of you and your interests;
• offer you content specifically personalized for you (for example, we can remember the choice of language you have made on our site, or show you advertisements that are tailored to your needs and interest).

When we talk about "cookies" we are also talking about technologies similar to cookies, such as scripts, pixels, fingerprinting, web beacons, and redirects. Scripts (sometimes called tags) are programs that run in your browser and perform various actions, such as sending information to our servers.

Cookies can be implemented by us and also by third-party organizations.
