In general, cookies are used to improve the services and browsing experience that the site can offer. Some cookies are strictly necessary for the functionality of the site, while others allow you to optimise the performance and offer a better experience to our user. Others can help the site to profile the user and offer personalised, targeted content. The permanence of the information transmitted through cookies can be variable, for example, limited to the duration of the single session, or permanently stored. Also, cookies can be installed directly by the site, or from external service (third-party cookies).
Cookies serve different purposes. Cookies allow a site, for example, to:

Other examples of the use of cookies:

- They allow a service to recognise your device, and to prevent you from repeatedly entering the same information during an activity
- They recognise that you have already provided a username and password when you are logged in to a listing, so you do not need to repeat this for every web page you request
- They calculate how many users are using the services at a certain moment in time, to facilitate their use and ensure the necessary capacity for a fast navigation
- They analyse the data that help us understand how to improve our services.
