In accordance with Directive 2002/58/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 12 July 2002, Luca Brighenti Group (hereinafter “COMPANY” or “we”) informs you that https://adhoc.academy/ (hereinafter “site” or “Web site”) uses cookies to store information on your computer, required to access some of its features. By using the site, you declare you have read and you agree to this Cookies Policy as well as the Terms and Conditions of use of the Website and our Privacy Policy.
1 – What is a cookie?
“Cookies” are small text files that are stored via browser on your computer or mobile phone. They allow websites to store such things as user preferences. You can think of cookies as providing a “memory” for the website, enabling it to recognise a user and respond appropriately. They store information needed by these sites to provide you with their services, improve navigation, remember your preferences, run advertising campaigns, etc. Read more about cookies in Wikipedia or on the site of the European Commission.
2 – What types of cookies are there?
There are three classes of cookies, and the same cookie can receive different classifications, depending on how it is created and used. Please note these categories are not always standard, and other sites may use different classifications.
a) According the duration of the cookie
– Session cookies: Only last during a browsing session, and are removed the moment the browser window is closed. Session cookies are used for technical functionalities, for example to remember what products have been added to a shopping basket.
– Persistent cookies: They are stored on users’ devices after the browser window has been closed. The duration of this type of cookie is set by the website that created it, and it can last for an indefinite period of time. They are commonly used to remember your navigation preferences during future visits or for targeted advertising. The intrusiveness of this type of cookie depends on if it is used by the same site, or a third party site, and what it is used for.
b) According the cookie origin
– First party cookies: The website that sets the cookie is the same website the user is visiting.
– Third party cookies: The cookie is created by a website other than the one being visited, collecting information to provide visitors with their own services or track users on the third-party site.
c) According the cookie usage
– Technical Cookies: Allow the user to navigate through a site and use any of its existing options or services, for example, identify the session (1-a), restrict access to some pages, serve content according the visitors’ languages, remember the elements of an order, complete the checkout of a shopping cart, use a password protected page, set security features, manage videos or music, or share content via social networks. Some technical cookies are considered “strictly necessary cookies”, because the site could not work without them.
– Customization Cookies: Allow users to personalize the functioning of a website (such as languages, colors, country, etc).
– Analytical Cookies: Monitors the behavior of users on a website, generating statistics that can be used later to define marketing strategies, provide users with custom information, and improve services and content.
– Advertising Cookies: Used for more effective management of advertising spaces on the site.
– Targeting Cookies: Stores information about users’ behaviors through the continuous observation of their browsing habits, sometime across multiple sites. In this case, they used to be known as “Super Cookies”. These are usually created by third-party sites offering some kind of service in return, like social networks and email services. Super cookies are the most likely to offer risks to users, both in regards to their privacy and to the security of their computers. For this reason, it is important you know what services or websites store these types of cookies, and decide how to manage them.
