How we use Cookies

A cookie is a very small text file that is stored on your computer when you visit some websites. It helps the website to remember information about your visit, like your preferred language and other settings. That can make the site more useful to you. Cookies play an important role: without them, using the web would be a much more frustrating experience.

This website uses few cookies and for three purposes, only: functional, analytics and widgets.
The functional, technical, cookies are session cookies (i.e., cookies that are temporarily stored on the computer, but disappear when the broswer is closed) that allow for the transmission of the necessary session identifiers in order to ensure safe and efficient browsing on the website, e.g., for storing login information for authorized users. In this website, such cookies are automatically handled by Joomla!, the free and open-source CMS adopted.
The analytics cookies help website owners to understand how their visitors engage with the entire website. Analytics service uses a set of cookies to collect information and report website usage statistics without personally identifying individual visitors.
The widgets cookies encompasses all those components that make up a program's graphical user interface, with the aim of helping the user interact with the program itself. To cite an example, Facebook and YouTube cookies are widgets.

For the last two categories, this website relies on external services (third-party), as illustrated in the following table. Further information on privacy policies and the use of these types of cookies can be found directly on the websites of the organizations that create and manage them.
