What options do I have?

You have three choices. You can either proceed by accepting all cookies and other mechanisms ("Accept"), deny any unnecessary cookie ("Reject") or proceed by customizing your cookie options ("Cookie Configuration" - "Save Options").

The Strict Necessities are placed upon your entry on our website. As they are absolutely necessary either from a technical point of view, or to offer you the services or functionalities you choose, the legislation allows us to place them without requiring any action or consent from you. By selecting the "Reject All" button, which you will find both next to the original basic update we provide to you, and under the pop-up fuller update (banner), you continue your navigation only with the Strict Essentials. We'll remember your choice for a year. When this time has passed, or if you visit us from a new device or browser, you will be asked again. Unfortunately, if you do not wish to place them at all, you should not use our services and manually delete from your browser the cookies that have already been placed.

Performance is placed if you select the "Accept All" button that you will find both next to the original basic update we provide to you, and under the pop-up fuller update (banner). We'll remember your choice for a year. When this time has passed, or if you visit us from a new device or browser, we will ask you again.

By selecting the "Save Preferences" button that you will find under the pop-up fuller update (banner), the "Performance" category is placed, if you have selected it, clicking the relevant box and we will remember your choice for one year. If you haven't clicked any boxes and clicked "Save Options", then only the Strict Essentials will be saved and we'll remember your choice for one year. When this time has passed, or if you visit us from a new device or browser, we will ask you again.

 

Change Options - Withdrawal of Consent

You may at any time change for the future the choice you have made regarding cookies and related technologies on our website. At the top of this Policy you will find the button: "Configure Cookies". Regardless of what your choice was the last time we asked you through a pop-up window if you want to place cookies and related technologies, you can decide again, easily, directly and free of charge, through the window that will pop up again when you select the "Cookie Configuration" button.

For example, if you selected "Accept" and changed your mind, you can select in the new pop-up window any (or none) of the cookie categories you want and click Save Options. This action will act as a withdrawal of the consent you had already given to us and will apply for the future, i.e. from this change onwards will not be used by our website (the specific) cookies and related technologies on your device. In case you want to remove cookies that were already placed on your device before the above withdrawal of your consent, then you can do so manually, following the instructions you will find in the section "Browser Control – Removing Cookies" below.

 

Browser Control - Removing Cookies

You can also control and manage cookies through your browser settings. Among the options you have (depending on the browser) are for example the acceptance of all cookies, the existence of a warning about the placement of cookies or even the prohibition of placing them.

Similarly, through your browser settings, you can reverse any acceptance of cookie placement and related mechanisms from our website by deleting the files already stored.
