Cookie

DEFINITIONS

In computer science, HTTP cookies (more commonly called Web cookies, tracking cookies or simply cookies) are lines of text used to perform automatic authentication, session tracking and storage of specific information regarding users accessing the server, such as favorite websites. or, in the case of internet purchases, the contents of their "shopping carts".

In detail, they are small text strings sent by a server to a Web client (usually a browser) and then sent back from the client to the server (without being modified) every time the client accesses the same portion of the same web domain. . The term "cookie" - literally "cookie" - derives from magic cookie (magic cookie), a concept known in the UNIX environment that inspired both the idea and the name of the HTTP cookies.

Each domain or part of it that is visited with the browser can set cookies. Since a typical Internet page, for example that of a newspaper on the net, contains objects that come from many different domains and each of them can set cookies, it is normal to host many hundreds of cookies in your browser.

TYPES OF COOKIES

Proprietary cookies: these are the cookies that are installed on our website. According to the data protection legislation, proprietary cookies can be divided into two groups:

Technical cookies: they do not require user authorization and are all those necessary to show the website correctly: session cookies, analytics cookies, functionality cookies.

Profiling cookies: user consent is required as these aim to create user profiles (not to be confused with user account data). They are used to send targeted messages to particular users or groups of people to which the user belongs.

Third-party cookies: these are cookies that are placed by the managers of another site ("third parties") through our site: in this case, for obvious technical reasons, Electrical Stock is not responsible for third-party cookies; our website acts as a technical intermediary and must only provide a link to the information notices and third party consent forms. Third-party cookies do not require user consent.

COOKIES USED BY STOCK ELETTRICO
