Cookie policy

Like many other websites, www.italchimes.it uses navigation data, cookies and similar technology in order to recognise the user and personalise his/her navigation experience. Cookies are small text files downloaded onto the user's computer or mobile device when he/she visits a website or an application for a mobile device. Cookies are used to recognise the user's computer when he/she returns to a website or application already visited previously.

There are two main categories of cookie:

  • First-party cookies, sent directly by www.italchimes.it to the user's computer or mobile device. These are used by www.italchimes.it merely to recognise the computer or mobile device of the user when he/she visits the site again.
  • Third-party cookies, sent by the service provider of the website. These can be used to recognise the computer or mobile device of the user when he/she visits other platforms. Third-party cookies are used above all for analyses relating to the website, or for advertising purposes
Some cookies may remain in the user's computer or mobile device for some time. Others are known as 'session cookies' and are automatically deleted when the browser is closed. Yet another type of cookie is called 'permanent', and it remains in the computer even when the browser is closed; it is used to recognise the user's computer or mobile device when he/she opens the browser and begins navigating.
