Third-party cookies that transfer data to third countries
The use of some third-party cookies on the Site (i.e. personalization, analytical and/or advertising) may involve the transfer of your data to countries outside the European Economic Area (e.g., the United States of America), which may not be have an adequacy decision from the European Commission and, consequently, do not offer a level of protection for your data essentially equivalent to that of the European Union.
