This document contains information regarding the technologies that enable this Web Site to achieve the purposes described below. These technologies allow the Owner to collect and store information (for example, through the use of Cookies) or use resources (for example, by running a script) on the User’s device when the User interacts with this Website.
For simplicity, these technologies are succinctly referred to as “Tracking Tools” in this document, unless there is reason to differentiate.
For example, although Cookies can be used in both web and mobile browsers, it would be inappropriate to talk about Cookies in the context of mobile applications, since they are Tracking Tools that require the presence of a browser. For this reason, within this document the term Cookie is used only to refer specifically to that particular type of Tracking Tool.
Some of the purposes for which Tracking Tools are used may, in addition, require the User’s consent. If consent is given, it can be freely revoked at any time by following the instructions in this document.
This Website uses Tracking Tools operated directly by the Owner (commonly called “first-party” Tracking Tools) and Tracking Tools that enable services provided by third parties (commonly called “third-party” Tracking Tools). Unless otherwise specified within this document, such third parties have access to their respective Tracking Tools.
Duration and expiration of Cookies and other similar Tracking Tools may vary depending on what is set by the Owner or each third-party vendor. Some of them expire at the end of the User’s browsing session.
In addition to what is specified in the description of each of the categories below, Users can obtain more detailed and up-to-date information about the duration, as well as any other relevant information – such as the presence of other Tracking Tools – in the privacy policies of the respective third-party providers (via the links made available) or by contacting the Controller.

How to manage preferences and give or revoke consent
There are several ways to manage preferences related to Tracking Tools and to give or revoke consent where necessary:
Users can manage preferences related to Tracking Tools directly through their device settings – for example, they can prevent the use or storage of Tracking Tools.
In addition, whenever the use of Tracking Tools is dependent on consent, the User may give or revoke that consent by setting their preferences within the cookie policy or updating those preferences via the privacy widget for consent preferences, if any.
Through special browser or device features, it is also possible to remove previously saved Tracking Tools, including those used to save preferences regarding consent initially expressed by the User.
Other Tracking Tools in the browser’s local memory can be removed by deleting the browsing history.
Regarding Third Party Tracking Tools, Users can manage their preferences by visiting the relevant opt out link (if available), using the tools described in the third party’s privacy policy, or by contacting the third party directly.

Users can also manage certain Mobile Application Tracking Tools by disabling them through the appropriate device settings, such as mobile advertising settings or tracking-related settings in general (Users can consult their device settings to locate the relevant one).
How to turn off interest-based advertising
Notwithstanding the above, Users are advised of the possibility of making use of the information on YourOnlineChoices (EU and UK), Network Advertising Initiative (US) and Digital Advertising Alliance (US), DAAC (Canada), DDAI (Japan) or other similar services. With these services you can manage the tracking preferences of most advertising tools. The Owner, therefore, advises Users to use these resources in addition to the information provided herein.
The Digital Advertising Alliance also provides an application called AppChoices that helps Users control behavioral advertising on mobile applications.
Consequences associated with refusing to use Tracking Tools.
Users are free to decide whether or not to allow the use of Tracking Tools. However, note that the Tracking Tools enable this Web Site to provide Users with a better experience and enhanced functionality (consistent with the purposes outlined in this document). Therefore, if the User decides to block the use of Tracking Tools, the Owner may not be able to provide the related functionality.
