What are cookies and what are they used for?
Cookies are small text files that websites visited by users send to their terminals, where they are stored to be retransmitted to the same websites on subsequent visits. Cookies are used for different purposes, have different characteristics, and can be used both by the data controller of the site you are visiting (so-called "first-party cookies") and by third parties (so-called "third-party cookies").
Some cookies allow the website to remember user preferences expressed during browsing, facilitate purchases, or enable user authentication (so-called "technical cookies"). Other cookies enable the website to track the user's browsing activities for the purpose of delivering advertising or providing services in line with the user's preferences (so-called "profiling cookies").
Only profiling cookies require the user's prior consent for their use.
The responsibility and management of first-party cookies is assumed directly by the data controller of this website, De Agostini S.p.A., with registered office at via G. da Verrazano 15, 28100 Novara and is governed by that company's privacy policy.
The responsibility and management of third-party cookies instead lies with their respective owners and managers, which are required to offer adequate refusal mechanisms in their privacy policy statements.
This website only uses technical cookies, no cookies are used for the transmission of personal data, nor are any persistent cookies or user tracking systems employed.
The use of session cookies (which are not stored persistently on the user's computer and disappear when the browser is closed) is strictly limited to the transmission of session identifiers (random numbers generated by the server) necessary to enable secure and efficient browsing of the site.
The session cookies used on this website avoid the need for other potentially intrusive computer techniques concerning user privacy during browsing and do not allow the acquisition of the user's identifiable personal data.
