WHAT ARE COOKIES

Cookies are small text strings sent to the user of the visited website, which are stored on the users' devices and allow the website to recognize users and save certain information about them. Cookies can be retrieved during subsequent visits.

COOKIE TYPES
Based on the characteristics and use of cookies, different categories can be distinguished:

• Session cookies. Session cookies are stored temporarily and have a limited validity over time; therefore, they do not permanently record any information on the user's computer hard disk. Cookies allow for storing information related to the start of each user's session.

• Navigational cookies. The utility of navigational cookies is based on the temporary monitoring of internet browsing. The user can always delete this type of cookie before starting to browse other pages of the website.

• Technical cookies. These are cookies essential for the proper functioning of the site and are used to manage login and access to the site's reserved functions. The duration of cookies may be strictly limited to the working session (once the browser is closed, they are deleted), or for a maximum duration of 30 days. Disabling them compromises access to services available through login. User consent is not required for technical cookies.

• Analytics cookies. These are cookies used to collect and analyze traffic and usage of the individual site anonymously. They are used solely to produce aggregate statistics. These cookies can be included in the technical category and, as such, be used without prior user consent. Disabling these cookies can be done without any loss of functionality.

• Profiling cookies. These are permanent cookies used to anonymously identify user preferences and improve their browsing experience. The site does NOT use this type of cookie.

• Third-party cookies. The site may also install third-party cookies that allow managing and improving services offered. An example of this is Google Analytics services. By using the site https://www.centronazionalemost.it/, the user accepts that such cookies may be installed on their device. Google Analytics anonymizes the user's IP address.

THIRD-PARTY COOKIES
Google Analytics uses cookies (_ga, _gid, _gat_gtag_UA_) to collect and analyze anonymous information on site usage behaviors (including the user's IP address). This information is collected by Google Analytics, which processes it to prepare reports for us regarding activities on the website itself. Google does not associate the IP address with any other data held by Google nor does it attempt to link an IP address with a user's identity. The user can selectively disable Google Analytics' action by installing the opt-out component provided by Google https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. Although they are analysis cookies, they can be equated to technical cookies (and therefore exempt from consent) because they are used solely to produce aggregate statistics and in relation to a single site; IP addresses (at least the fourth component) are masked and do not combine with other processing.

DURATION OF COOKIES
Some cookies (session cookies) remain active only until the browser is closed or the logout command is executed. Other cookies "survive" the closure of the browser and are available on subsequent visits by the user. These cookies are called persistent, and their duration is set by the server at the time of their creation. According to current regulations, this site is not required to ask for consent for technical and analytical third-party cookies in anonymous form, as they are necessary to provide the requested services.

Anonymous third-party analytical cookies:
• Google Analytics / _ga / persistent – used to distinguish users / 2 years.
• Google Analytics / _gid / used solely for statistical analysis purposes / 1 day.
• Google Analytics / _gat_gtag_UA_ / used for visit analysis / 1 minute.

COOKIE MANAGEMENT FROM THE BROWSER
Most browsers automatically accept cookies, but users can usually modify settings to disable this function. It is possible to block all types of cookies or to accept some and disable others. The "Options" or "Preferences" sections in the browser menu allow avoiding the reception of cookies and other user tracking technologies, as well as obtaining notification from the browser of the activation of these technologies. Alternatively, it’s also possible to consult the “Help” section of the toolbar present in most browsers.
