It is strongly recommended that each Website user (“User”) consults this document frequently in order to be aware of possible changes or amendments that may be made to it primarily in dependence of regulatory changes.

As you browse the Website, you may access third-party features or platforms – for which ADI is in no way responsible – that may issue cookies and collect personal data.

What are cookies?

Cookies are usually strings of text that websites (so-called Publishers, or “first parties”) visited by the User or different websites or web servers (so-called “third parties”) place and store – directly, in the case of publishers, and indirectly, i.e., through them, in the case of “third parties” – within a terminal device in the availability of the User himself (e.g., a computer, a tablet, a smartphone, or any other device capable of storing information).

Internet browsing software and the operation of these devices, e.g., browsers, can store cookies and then transmit them back to the sites that generated them on a subsequent visit by the same User, thus maintaining memory of his or her previous interaction with one or more websites.

Information encoded in cookies includes, but is not limited to: the type of browser used (e.g., Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox); the domain name from which the User accesses the Internet; the website from which the User reached the Website; the date and time of access. This information is needed, for example, for more efficient navigation and use of a website or is necessary to enable certain features,

to avoid entering the same information (such as, for example, user’s name and password) at each access, for statistical purposes or for customizing a site according to User’s preferences.

Why do we use cookies?

The Website uses cookies to facilitate and improve User’s browsing experience (“technical cookies”), to analyze each User’s use of the Website and collect access statistics (“analytical cookies”), and/or to ensure that advertising content displayed online is better targeted to the User and his/her interests (“profiling cookies”).

What cookies do we use?

Below are the types of cookies used by the Website, grouping them according to the purposes for which they are used.

Technical cookies

These are cookies whose purpose is to enable the proper functioning of the Website and/or some of its individual sections and are therefore indispensable to enable the User to fully and correctly navigate the Website and use its functionalities.

Such cookies can be either session cookies (i.e., they are automatically deleted whenever the browser is closed) or persistent cookies (i.e., even once the browser is closed, they are not deleted, but persist until a predetermined, pre-set date). Technical cookies are sent by the Website itself (so-called “first-party” cookies) or by third-party domains/websites (so-called “third-party” cookies).

Analytical cookies

Cookies in this category (so-called “analytics cookies” or simply “analytics”) are used to collect information in an anonymous form about the use of the Website. The Website uses this information to obtain anonymous statistical analysis in order to improve its use and to make content more aligned with Users’ technical needs. Analytical cookies are sent from third-party domains/websites (so-called “third-party” cookies).

Profiling cookies

To this type of cookies belong those that are placed on the Website by third parties through the integration of certain features of the Website itself with the platforms/websites of the third parties concerned.

Consent to the installation of cookies belonging to this category is optional and a refusal to do so will in no way affect the correct and regular operation of the Website.

ADI, according to the regulations in force, is not required to ask for User’s consent in relation to the use of technical and/or analytical first- or third-party cookies, as they are necessary to provide the services requested through the navigation on the Website. The latter consequently are automatically installed by the Website on User’s first visit, except for the possibility for the User to disable them as indicated in the following paragraph.
