2. What cookies do we use?

This site uses different types of cookies to ensure its operation and collect statistical data:

Strictly Necessary Cookies: These are essential for you to browse the site and use its basic features. They include temporary cookies to load resources such as fonts (Google Fonts) and visual styles (Tailwind CSS). Without these cookies, the site would not function correctly.
Analytics Cookies (Google Analytics): We use Google Analytics to help us understand how visitors interact with the site anonymously. This tool uses cookies (such as _ga, _gid, _gat) to collect information about the number of visitors, pages visited, time spent, etc., and report site usage statistics. The information collected does not personally identify visitors.
Third-Party Cookies (Embedded Content): Our site includes embedded content from YouTube (video) and Google Maps (interactive map). By interacting with this content, or even just by loading the page where it is located, these services (managed by Google) may place their own cookies on your device. These cookies may serve various purposes defined by Google, including:
- Functionality (e.g., remembering language preferences on the map, video player preferences).
- Analytics (e.g., counting video views, analyzing map interactions).
- Security (e.g., preventing fraud).
- Advertising/Personalization (e.g., cookies like NID, CONSENT, VISITOR_INFO1_LIVE may be used by Google to show more relevant ads on other platforms or personalize your experience on Google services, based on your activity).
The management and purpose of these third-party cookies are the sole responsibility of Google. You can learn more in the Google Cookie Policy.

Note on Marketing/Advertising Cookies: This site (simonecaberti.com) does not directly place any cookies for the primary purpose of marketing or targeted advertising. However, as mentioned above, the embedded third-party services (YouTube, Google Maps) may place cookies that Google uses for advertising purposes on its own platforms and partner networks, based on your interactions and Google profile. We have no control over this activity.
