1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text-based files that are stored by the browser in your device (PC or Mobile).

Login-related cookies
We use cookies to identify when you are logged into our system and to remember you when you return to our system. These cookies are deleted every time the user “logs-out” of our system.

We also create marketing campaigns through platforms such as Google Ads, and, eventually, Facebook and other possible media partners. These tools need cookies as well, in order to enhance their performance and, consequently, make the best product options available to you in a manner that fits your preferences.

To improve our users’ and clients’ experience, we keep buttons and/or plugins that allow the user’s connection to social networks through our website. In order for that to be possible, the social networks (Facebook and Google Plus) may store cookies throughout our website so as to improve the user’s experience. Being that these are external websites, we do not keep track of the data collected by these cookies. For that matter, we recommend reading the cookie policy related to the network used.
Other websites are used to store performance analyses and usability in our system. These cookies can also keep record of how the website is used by the user. This may include, but is not limited to, browsing time, visited pages, repeat visits and most searched for content.
