Cookie Policy

Dear User,

This page, pursuant to Article 13 of Regulation (EU) No. 679/2016 on the protection of personal data (the “Regulation”), sets out the cookie policy adopted by the operator of the website www.accademiafieramilano.it (the “Website”).

What cookies are and why we use them

Cookies are small text and numeric files that websites visited by the User send to the User’s device (usually to the browser), where they are stored and then sent back to the same websites on the User’s subsequent visits. While browsing a website, the User may also receive cookies on their device that are sent by different websites or web servers (so-called “third parties”), on which certain elements (such as images, maps, sounds, specific links to pages of other domains) present on the website the User is visiting may reside. Cookies may be used for different purposes (e.g., IT authentication, session monitoring, storing information on specific configurations concerning users accessing the server, etc.).

Cookies may be classified by the parties that use them (first-party and third-party cookies) and by their function (technical, analytics and profiling cookies).

First-party cookies: installed by the operator of the Website (also referred to as the “publisher”).

Third-party cookies: installed on the User’s device by a website other than the one being visited.

In general, cookies can be completely disabled in the browser at any time.

Types of cookies

Technical cookies

These cookies are used solely to browse or provide a service requested by the User (e.g., authenticate to access restricted areas). They are not used for any other purposes and are normally installed directly by the controller or operator of the Website on the User’s device. These cookies may be session cookies or navigation cookies. There are also analytics cookies which may be treated as technical cookies if used by the Website operator to collect aggregated information for statistical purposes (e.g., the number of visitors to the Website). Finally, there are functionality cookies which enable User navigation according to selected parameters in order to improve usability. Technical cookies can be session or persistent depending on whether they are automatically deleted when the browser is closed or stored on the User’s device for a specific period. First-party technical and analytics cookies do not require User consent but must be indicated in the notice.

Third-party analytics cookies

These cookies are used to monitor Users’ use of the Website for optimisation purposes and are made available by third parties (different from the Website operator). In such cases, the Website operator using this technology is not subject to the obligations prescribed by applicable law (i.e., cookie banner and notification to the supervisory authority) provided that tools are used to reduce the identifying power of the cookies (for example by partially masking the User’s IP address). In addition, the third-party cookie provider must contractually commit not to pursue any purpose other than providing the service to the Website operator, to keep the cookies separate, and not to “enrich” or “combine” them with other information already in its possession. In these cases, information must be provided but the User’s prior valid consent is not required, provided the above conditions are met.

Profiling cookies

These cookies are used to track the User’s browsing in order to collect information and create profiles relating to the User (and may be used to send advertising messages consistent with the preferences expressed by the User while browsing). These cookies may be first-party or third-party. In all cases, the User must be adequately informed and their operation is subject to the User’s prior valid consent.
