Depending on the characteristics and use of cookies we can distinguish between several types of cookies:

 

  • Necessary "technical" cookies.These cookies are necessary for a correct functioning of the Riva Group’s websites. They are used to log in and to access reserved functions of the website. After closing the browser (closing of the session), they are cancelled. Their deactivation compromises the use of the services accessible by login. The public part of the Riva Group’s websites remains usable.

 

  • Analysis and Performance Cookies.These cookies are used to anonymously collect and analyse traffic data on the website. While not identifying the user, these cookies allow, for example, to detect if the same user logs in again at different times. Moreover, they make it possible to monitor the system to improve usability and performance. Disabling these cookies does not affect the functionality of the website.

 

  • Profile cookies. These are permanent cookies used (anonymously and not) to monitor users’ preferences in order to improve their experience. This kind of cookies are not used on the Riva Group’s websites.

Cookie duration

Some cookies (session cookies) remain active only until the browser is closed or the logout command is executed. Other cookies "survive" after closing the browser and are also available on subsequent visits by the user.

 

These cookies are called persistent cookies and their duration is fixed by the server when they are created. In some cases an expiry date is set, in other cases the duration is unlimited.

 

The Riva Group’s websites make use of session cookies.

By browsing the pages of the Riva Group's websites, it is possible to interact with websites managed by third parties that can create or modify cookies.

Disabling "third party" cookies in no way affects navigability.
