COOKIE POLICY
What are cookies and why do we use them?
A cookie is a small information file that is stored in your browser each time you visit our website.
Cookies are essential tools for providing many information society services. Among other things, they allow a website to store and retrieve information about a user's browsing habits or their device and, depending on the information obtained, can be used to recognize the user and improve the service offered.
The purpose of cookies is to save your activity history on our website so that, when you visit again, the site can identify you and tailor its content based on your browsing habits, identity, and preferences.
A cookie is harmless, it does not contain malicious code (e.g. viruses, trojans, worms, spam, does not open pop-up windows, etc.) that could damage your device (computer, tablet, smartphone, or any other device), but it does collect certain information about you (browsing habits, identity, preferences, etc.).
What information does a cookie store?
Cookies generally do not collect special categories of personal data (sensitive data). The data they store is technical, personal preferences, content customization, etc.
What types of cookies are there?
Depending on the entity managing the domain from which cookies are sent and processing the data obtained, there are two types:
o First-party cookies: these are sent to the user's device from our own equipment or domains and from which we provide the service requested by the user.
o Third-party cookies: these are sent to your device from equipment or a domain not managed by us, but by another collaborating entity. For example, those used by social networks or external content such as Google Maps. According to the length of time they remain active.
There is also a second classification based on the length of time they remain stored in the client's browser:
o Session cookies: designed to collect and store data while the user accesses a website. They are typically used to store information that is only relevant for providing the service requested by the user on a single occasion (e.g. a list of purchased products). •
o Persistent cookies: data remains stored on the device and can be accessed and processed for a period defined by the cookie owner, which can range from a few minutes to several years.
Finally, there is another classification with five types of cookies according to their purpose for which the collected data is processed:
o Technical cookies:
These are the most basic cookies. They allow users to navigate a website, platform or application and use the different options or services available, such as controlling traffic and data communication, identifying the session, accessing restricted areas, remembering items in a shopping cart, completing the purchase process, registering or participating in an event, using security features during browsing, storing content for video or audio streaming, or sharing content via social networks.
o Personalisation cookies:
These cookies allow users to access the service with some predefined general features based on a series of criteria on the user's device, such as language, browser type, regional settings, etc.
o Analytics cookies:
These cookies enable the owner to monitor and analyse user behaviour on the websites to which they are linked. The information collected is used to measure website, application or platform activity and to create browsing profiles of users, in order to introduce improvements based on the analysis of how users use the service.
o Advertising cookies:
These cookies allow for the most efficient management of advertising spaces that, where appropriate, the owner has included on a website, application or platform from which the requested service is provided, based on criteria such as the edited content or the frequency with which ads are displayed.
o Behavioural advertising cookies:
These cookies enable the most efficient management of advertising spaces that, where applicable, the controller has included on a website, application, or platform from which the requested service is provided. These cookies store information about user behavior obtained through continuous observation of their browsing habits, allowing the development of a specific profile to display advertising based on it.
