(hereinafter "SIB" ) regarding the processing of personal data of users who consult and access it. SIB has the objective of aligning personal data protection policies with the provisions of EU Regulation 2016/679 on the protection of personal data (hereinafter "the Regulation" or "the GDPR" ), of Italian Legislative Decree 196/2003, as amended by Italian Legislative Decree 101/2018 setting forth the "Personal Data Protection Code" (hereinafter "the Privacy Code"), and of the e-Privacy Directive as well as of the privacy legislation in force. This statement (hereinafter "the Statement" ), drawn up on the basis of the principle of transparency and of all elements required by the GDPR, is divided into single sections, each dealing with a specific topic so as to make it more readable, manageable and understandable.

In this way, by way of example, cookies allow and/or facilitate access to some Internet pages to improve user navigation (i.e. they allow the storage of pages visited and other specific information, such as pages consulted more frequently, connection errors, etc.), or allow profiling activities.
