Cookie Policy

This document contains information regarding the technologies that enable this Application to achieve the purposes described below. These technologies allow the Owner to collect and store information (for example, through the use of Cookies) or to use resources (for example, by executing a script) on the User’s device when the latter interacts with this Application.

For simplicity, in this document such technologies are collectively referred to as “Tracking Tools”, unless there is reason to distinguish them.
For example, although Cookies may be used in both web and mobile browsers, it would be inappropriate to refer to Cookies in the context of mobile applications, since these are Tracking Tools that require a browser. Therefore, within this document, the term Cookie is used only to specifically refer to that particular type of Tracking Tool.

Some of the purposes for which Tracking Tools are used may also require the User’s consent. Once such consent has been given, it can be freely withdrawn at any time by following the instructions contained in this document.

This Application uses Tracking Tools managed directly by the Owner (commonly referred to as “first-party” Tracking Tools) and Tracking Tools that enable services provided by third parties (commonly referred to as “third-party” Tracking Tools). Unless otherwise specified in this document, such third parties may access their respective Tracking Tools.
The duration and expiration of Cookies and similar Tracking Tools may vary depending on the settings established by the Owner or by each third-party provider. Some of them expire at the end of the User’s browsing session.
In addition to what is specified in the descriptions of each of the categories listed below, Users may obtain more detailed and up-to-date information on 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 provided) or by contacting the Owner.

Measurement

Third-party Tracking Tools:
Google Analytics (Universal Analytics) with anonymised IP (Google Ireland Limited)

Google Analytics (Universal Analytics) is a web analysis service provided by Google Ireland Limited (“Google”). Google uses the Personal Data collected to track and examine the use of this Application, to compile reports and share them with other services developed by Google.

This integration of Google Analytics anonymises your IP address. The anonymisation works by shortening the Users’ IP address within the borders of the member states of the European Union or in other countries that are party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be sent to Google servers and shortened within the United States.

For an understanding of Google’s use of data, please consult the Google Partner Policy.
