Navigation cookies

Navigation cookies are fundamental to allow you to move within the site and use all its functions. Without these cookies we would not be able to offer the required services, for example the shopping trolley, checkout or e-billing. In this sense, navigation cookies are necessary, as they are used to memorize univocal information for the management and identification of a user, as opposed to all the other users who are browsing the site in the same moment. Some examples of “events” that make navigation cookies necessary: - Remembering previous actions, in case you want to browse back through the pages you already opened during the session - Managing and passing security tokens to the various services within the site, for example to identify the visitor’s status (registered or unregistered) - Navigation of the site’s reserved area - Suggesting client-specific versions/application of a service
