The website www.peperoni.it (hereinafter “Website”) uses cookies and other related technologies (hereinafter generically referred to as “cookies”). This policy contains information about the type and use of cookies within the Website.
Cookies and tracking tools
Cookies are small text files that visited sites send to users’ terminals and are used to perform computer authentication, session tracking, storing information about specific configurations, storing preferences etc.
“Tracking tool” is defined as any technology (e.g., cookies, unique identifiers, web beacons, embedded scripts, e-tags, and fingerprinting) that enables tracking of the user, for example, by collecting or storing information on the user’s device.
The main types of cookies
Depending on their origin, cookies are mainly divided into two categories:
- First-party cookies, i.e., cookies generated and managed directly by the entity operating the Website on which the user is browsing. In this sense, the responsibility and management of first-party cookies is assumed directly by the Website Owner;
- Third-party cookies, i.e. cookies installed on the user’s terminal, generated and managed by parties other than the operator of the Website on which the user is browsing. The purposes can be multiple: traffic analysis, proposition of advertisements, sharing with social, etc. The responsibility and management of third-party cookies falls on the respective Owners (third parties), who will be responsible for offering appropriate mechanisms for collecting and/or revoking consent in their own disclosures.
Based on the purpose of use, cookies can be further distinguished into:
- Technical cookies: these are essential for navigation (e.g. session identifiers) and enable the use of the main functionalities of the Website, as well as the safe and efficient exploration of the Website. Without such tracking tools, normal use of the Website would not be possible. These are cookies that ensure normal navigation and fruition and enable the connection between the server and the user’s browser;
- Functional cookies: they are stored in the pc or other device and record the user’s choices in order to optimize and provide better navigation within the service or access to this Website (e.g., registration in restricted areas, storage of products in the shopping cart to have the possibility to find them again in the next session, save the selected language etc.). Functional cookies are not essential to the operation of the Website, but they improve the quality and experience of browsing;

They are considered third-party cookies.
