# Cookie Policy

Last updated: 21 October 2026

This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, which ones are used by **paoloronco.it** and how to manage your preferences. It forms an integral part of the [Privacy Policy](/en/privacy).

## 1\. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files that visited websites send to the user's device, where they are stored and re-sent to the same sites on a later visit. Similar technologies (e.g. local storage, pixels) may perform analogous functions. Cookies are divided into **technical** (necessary for operation) and **analytics/profiling** (subject to consent).

## 2\. Consent management

On first access, a banner is shown through the consent management platform **Termly**, which lets you accept, reject or customize the use of non-necessary cookies. Cookies other than technical ones are installed only after consent. You can change or withdraw your choices at any time by reopening the cookie preferences panel using the “Consent preferences” link in the footer.

## 3\. Types of cookies used

### Technical and necessary cookies

Essential for the proper functioning of the Site and for storing preferences (including cookie and language choices). They do not require consent. This category includes Termly CMP preferences saved in local storage and preferences stored locally by the browser (e.g. language, skills view).

### Analytics and statistical cookies

Used, subject to consent, to collect aggregate information about the use of the Site (pages visited, duration, source) in order to improve its content. They are provided by Google Analytics and Microsoft Clarity and enabled according to the preferences expressed through Termly.

## 4\. Main cookies/services

| Service | Provider | Purpose |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Termly | Termly | Stores consent preferences (technical) |
| Google Analytics (e.g. \_ga, \_ga\_\*) | Google | Usage statistics (analytics) |
| Microsoft Clarity (e.g. \_clck, \_clsk) | Microsoft | Usage analytics and interaction maps (analytics), where active |

The duration and details of individual cookies are shown in the banner's preferences panel, which reflects the actual state of the Site at the time of the visit.

## 5\. How to manage or disable cookies

In addition to the Site's preferences panel, you can manage or delete cookies through your browser settings. Disabling technical cookies may impair some features. For more information:
