1. What are Cookies?

Cookies are files that websites or applications install in the browser or device (for example; smartphone, tablet or connected television) of the user during their browsing of the pages of the site or application, and are used to store information about their visit.

Like most sites on the Internet, this website uses Cookies to:

Ensuring that web pages can function properly.

Understand the user’s browsing experience.
Collect anonymous statistical information, such as which pages the user has visited or how long they have remained on the website.

The use of Cookies allows for the optimization of navigation, adapting the information and services offered to the interests of the user, in order to provide a better experience whenever they visit the website.

This website uses cookies to function, adapt and facilitate user navigation as much as possible.

2. Typology, purpose and operation

Cookies, depending on their permanence, can be divided into session or permanent cookies. The first ones expire when the user closes the browser. The latter expire when the purpose for which they are used is fulfilled (for example, to keep the user identified on the website) or when they are manually deleted.

Additionally, depending on their purpose, Cookies can be classified as follows:

Strictly necessary (technical): These are essential for the correct functioning of the page. They are usually generated when the user accesses the website or logs in to it and are used to identify the user on the website for the following purposes: Keep the user identified so that, if they leave the website, browser or device and access the website again at a later time, they will continue to be identified, thus facilitating their navigation without having to identify themselves again. Check whether the user is authorized to access certain services or areas of the website.
Performance: These are used to improve the browsing experience and optimize the operation of the website, such as, for example, storing service settings, or storing the purchase made in a shopping cart.
Advertising: These are those that collect information about the advertisements shown to website users. They can be of two types:
Anonymous: They only collect information about the advertising spaces displayed on the website, regardless of the user accessing the website, that is, without expressly identifying them.
Personalized: Personal information is collected from the website user by a third party, to personalize said advertising spaces.
Geo-location: These Cookies are used to find out in which country or region the user is located when accessing a website service in order to offer content or services appropriate to their location.
From analytics: They collect information about the user’s browsing experience on the website, usually anonymously, although sometimes they also allow the user to be uniquely and unequivocally identified in order to obtain reports on the users’ interests in the services offered by the website.

The user may be informed of any transfers to third countries carried out by third parties identified in this cookie policy by consulting their own cookie policies. Please note that if you accept third-party cookies, you will need to delete them from your browser options or from the system offered by the third party itself.

7.2. Types of cookies according to the period of time they remain activated on the user’s terminal:

Session cookies: These are a type of cookies designed to collect and store data while the user accesses a website, to store information that is only of interest to retain for the provision of the service requested by the user on a single occasion and they disappear at the end of the session.
Persistent cookies: These are a type of cookies in which the data remains stored on the terminal and can be accessed and processed for a period defined by the person responsible for the cookie, which can range from a few minutes to several years. For a cookie to be exempt from the obligation of informed consent, its expiration must be related to its purpose.

7.3. Types of cookies according to their purpose:

Technical cookies: These are those that allow the user to navigate through a website, platform or application and use the different options or services that exist therein, such as, for example, controlling traffic and data communication, identifying the session, accessing restricted access parts, remembering the elements that make up an order, carrying out the purchase process of an order, making the request for registration or participation in an event, using security elements during navigation, storing content for the dissemination of videos or sound, sharing content through social networks or that allow the management of advertising spaces that the editor has included on the website (without collecting information from users for different purposes). These cookies are exempt from consent when they allow the service requested by the user to be provided. However, if these cookies are also used for non-exempt purposes (for example, for behavioural advertising purposes), they will be subject to the obligation to provide information and consent.
Preference or personalization cookies: These are those that allow information to be remembered so that the user accesses the service with some predefined general characteristics based on a series of criteria in the user’s terminal, such as the language, the type of browser through which the user accesses the service, the regional configuration from where the user accesses the service, etc. If the user selects these features (for example, if he or she selects the language of a website by clicking on the icon of the flag of the corresponding country), the cookies will be exempt from consent because they are considered a service expressly requested by the user, provided that the cookies obey exclusively the selected purpose.
Analysis or measurement cookies: These are those that allow the person responsible for them to monitor and analyse the behaviour of users of the websites to which they are linked. The information collected through this type of cookies is used to measure the activity of the websites, application or platform and to create navigation profiles of the users of said sites, applications and platforms, in order to introduce improvements based on the analysis of the data on the use made by the users of the service. They are not exempt from the obligation to obtain informed consent for their use, and, despite the low probability that they represent a risk to the privacy of users as long as they are first-party cookies, it must be possible for users to oppose their processing or express their refusal.
Advertising or behavioral cookies: These are those that allow the management, in the most efficient way possible, of the advertising spaces that, where appropriate, the editor 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 the ads are displayed. They store information about user behavior obtained through continuous observation of their browsing habits, allowing a specific profile of the observed user to be displayed in order to show advertising based on said profile.
