  • Origin: first-party or third-party cookies. The definition of first party or third party refers to the website or domain that installs the cookie. First-party cookies are installed directly from the website that the user is viewing, while third-party cookies are installed from a domain other than the one the user is viewing, for example in the event that the website incorporates elements from other sites.

Analytical cookies are not necessary for the site to function, however since the IP address is not clear, the installation of these cookies does not require the user's consent. Profiling cookies, which can be first or third party, are used to track the user's navigation, analyze his behavior for marketing purposes and create profiles on his tastes, habits, choices ect.
