What Are Cookies
A “cookie” is a text file saved on the user’s computer when they access a website, designed to provide information whenever the user returns to the same site. It acts as a reminder of the visited webpage. With a cookie, the web server sends information to the user’s browser (Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, etc.), which stores it on the computer and later reads and updates it each time the user revisits the site. In this way, the website can automatically adapt to the user.
While browsing, the user may also receive cookies from other websites (“third-party cookies”), which are set directly by the managers of those websites and used for the purposes and methods defined by them.
Cookies can be divided according to their duration:
-
Session cookies (temporary, deleted automatically from the device at the end of the browsing session, when the browser is closed).
-
Persistent cookies (stored on the device until their expiration or deletion by the user).
According to their function and purpose, cookies can be divided into technical cookies and profiling cookies.
Technical Cookies
Some cookies are used for IT authentication, session monitoring, and storing specific information about users accessing a webpage. These so-called technical cookies are often useful for allowing navigation on a website and using all its functionalities. Technical cookies do not require the user’s consent.
This category also includes analytics cookies. These cookies collect information about how users use a website and help improve its performance. For example, analytics cookies show which pages are most frequently visited, verify recurring usage patterns, and help understand any difficulties the user encounters while using the site.
Profiling Cookies
Other cookies can be used to monitor and profile users during navigation, study their movements and browsing or consumption habits (e.g., what they buy, what they read), also for the purpose of sending targeted and personalized advertising. These are called profiling cookies. The use of such cookies requires the user’s prior, free, and informed consent pursuant to Article 7 of EU Regulation 2016/679.
Third-Party Cookies
A webpage may also contain cookies from other sites, included in various elements hosted on the page itself, such as advertising banners, images, videos, maps, or specific links to web pages on different domains residing on servers other than the one hosting the requested page. In other words, these cookies are set directly by managers of other websites or servers, not by this site. These are so-called third-party cookies, usually used for profiling purposes. The use of such cookies requires the user’s prior, free, and informed consent.
Types of Cookies Used by Our Site
The main functions of the cookies installed by www.bestlight.it are technical.

The website may also use Facebook ADS, managed by Facebook Inc., Google Adwords, and Google Remarketing technology, managed by Google Inc. The conversion tracking feature of Facebook ADS and AdWords also uses cookies to help us track sales and other conversions.
Cookie Management
The user can manage their cookie preferences through their browser’s functionalities, which allow them to delete/remove cookies (all or some) or change browser settings to block cookies from being sent or to restrict them to certain sites only.
