COOKIES

Cookies are small strings of text that the websites you visit send to your terminal (usually your browser), where they are stored and then retransmitted to the same websites the next time you visit them. In addition to cookies, other similar tools (web beacons/web bugs, clear GIFs or others) that allow the identification of the user or terminal are also subject to the Data Protection Authority’s provision.

While browsing a website, your terminal can also receive cookies sent by different websites or web servers (so-called  “third-party cookies”), which may house certain elements (such as images, maps, sounds, specific links to pages of other domains) present on the site that you are visiting.

Cookies, which are usually present in a very large number in users’ browsers and sometimes have characteristics that last a long time, are used for different purposes: performing computer authentication, monitoring sessions, storing information on specific configurations regarding the users that access the server, etc. You can find more information on cookies at www.allaboutcookies.org. To properly regulate these devices, it is necessary to distinguish them since there are no technical characteristics that differentiate them from each other on the basis of the purposes pursued by users.

Action has been taken in this direction by the legislator who, in implementing the provisions of Directive 2009/136/EC, has moved the obligation to acquire the prior and informed consent of users to the installation of cookies used for anything other than purely technical purposes (see art. 1, paragraph 5, letter a) of It. Legislative Decree  no. 69, 28 May 2012, which amended article 122 of the Code).
