Cookies Policy

This Cookies Policy explains how Accademia Italiana di Apprendimento ("we," "us," or "our") uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on our website (the "Site"). It explains what these technologies are and why we use them, as well as your rights to control our use of them.

What are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work, or work more efficiently, as well as to provide information to the owners of the site.

Why We Use Cookies

We use cookies for various purposes, including:

• Essential Cookies: These cookies are necessary for the Site to function properly. They enable you to navigate the Site and use its features, such as accessing secure areas. Without these cookies, services you have asked for, like shopping baskets or e-billing, cannot be provided.
• Performance Cookies: These cookies collect information about how visitors use our Site, for example, which pages visitors go to most often, and if they get error messages from web pages. These cookies don't collect information that identifies a visitor. All information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous. It is only used to improve how our website works. We use Google Analytics for this purpose, helping us understand user behavior and optimize our website experience.
• Functionality Cookies: These cookies allow the Site to remember choices you make (such as your language or the region you are in) and provide enhanced, more personal features. For instance, a website may be able to provide you with local weather reports or traffic news by storing in a cookie the region in which you are currently located. These cookies can also be used to remember changes you have made to text size, fonts and other parts of web pages that you can customize. The information these cookies collect may be anonymized and they cannot track your browsing activity on other websites.
• Targeting or Advertising Cookies: These cookies are used to deliver adverts more relevant to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement as well as help measure the effectiveness of the advertising campaign. They are usually placed by advertising networks with the website operator’s permission. They remember that you have visited a website and this information is shared with other organizations such as advertisers. Quite often targeting or advertising cookies will be linked to site functionality provided by the other organization. Currently, we do not use targeting or advertising cookies, but we may do so in the future to enhance your experience with relevant content.
