The media have extensively discussed cookies and Internet user privacy, and the legislative changes aim to facilitate users' knowledge and control of the information that websites, such as www.assistgroup.it, store about them.

Types of Cookies

Analytics Cookies – These are anonymous and aggregated web analysis tools that provide information on how users use the website, how they arrived at it, the number and duration of visits, etc. Such cookies enable improvements to the website, which facilitate user access and allow for statistical elaboration. These cookies are not necessary for optimal website usability and can therefore be disabled.

How to Manage Cookies

Since cookies are packages of information sent from a web server (e.g., the website) to the user's Internet browser, automatically stored by the latter on the computer and automatically resent to the server at each subsequent access to the website, users/visitors can set their browser to accept/refuse all cookies or display a warning whenever a cookie is proposed, in order to evaluate whether to accept it.

Therefore, by modifying your browser settings, you can manage, disable, and delete all types of cookies.

By default, almost all web browsers are set to automatically accept cookies. You can nonetheless modify the default settings, which are typically set to "medium" protection for most browsers, and disable cookies (i.e., block them permanently) by setting the highest protection level in the appropriate tab ("Privacy"). In any case, you also have the option to delete (or eliminate) cookies from your personal computer by consulting the "Options" section of your browser. If you wish to decide on a case-by-case basis whether to accept cookies, you can also configure your browser to generate a warning each time a cookie is saved.
