This page describes the cookies used on the website shop.uffizi.it in relation to the processing of the users’ personal data when they browse it.

This information notice is provided in accordance with the applicable privacy legislation, as required by Article 13 of the EU Regulation 2016/679 of 27 April 2016 (GDPR), and by the provisions of the Italian Data Protection Authority (Garante Privacy) resolution of 8 May 2014 regarding the management and use of cookies. It is addressed to those who interact with the web services of the ATI, accessible online at the following address: https://shop.uffizi.it/

This notice applies only to this website and not to any other websites that may be accessed by the user through links.

WHAT COOKIES ARE

Cookies are small text files that websites visited by the user send to the user’s browser, where they are stored and later transmitted back to the same websites during subsequent visits by the same user. This allows the website or server to recognise the browser and remember the user’s preferences together with other useful information that facilitates browsing.

Cookies differ from one another based on the purposes pursued by those who use them.

FIRST-PARTY AND THIRD-PARTY COOKIES

Depending on the specific entity that installs cookies on the user’s device, cookies can be classified as follows:

• First-party cookies: Set directly by the website (with the same domain as that shown in the browser’s address bar) and can only be read by that website.
• Third-party cookies: Set by domains other than the one shown in the browser’s address bar, i.e., by organisations unrelated to the website owner. These cookies are used, for example, to collect information for advertising purposes, for content personalisation, or to track visits to the site.

TECHNICAL AND PROFILING COOKIES

Cookies may also be classified into:

• Technical cookies: Essential for the proper functioning of a website or application. Without these cookies, the site may not function correctly or some features may be entirely unavailable. The installation of these cookies does not require the users’ prior consent.
• Profiling cookies: Used to collect and store information about the visitor (e.g., pages viewed, searches performed, etc.) in order to deliver targeted advertising messages aligned with their interests. The use of profiling cookies requires the data subject’s consent. For third-party cookies, the website has no direct control over individual cookies (it cannot install or delete them). Users may, however, manage these cookies via their browser settings (see “How to delete cookies from your computer”) or through the tools provided in the section “How to opt out of third-party cookies”.

TEMPORARY AND PERMANENT COOKIES

Cookies have a duration determined by their expiration date (or by a specific action such as closing the browser) set at the time they are installed. They can therefore be classified as:

• Temporary or session cookies (session cookies): Stored temporarily in the computer’s memory while the user visits a website (for example, to remember the selected language). Session cookies are stored for a short period and deleted when the browser is closed.
• Permanent cookies (persistent cookies): Remain on the user’s computer for an extended period depending on their expiration date. These cookies allow websites to store information for future visits, avoiding the need to repeatedly enter login credentials.
