COOKIES POLICY

What is a cookie?

A cookie is a harmless text file that is stored in your browser when you visit almost any website. The purpose of the cookie is for the website to be able to remember your visit when you return to that page. Although many people don’t know it, cookies have been used since the first browsers appeared on the World Wide Web.

What is NOT a cookie?

It is not a virus, Trojan, worm, spam, spyware or pop-up.

What information does a cookie store?

Cookies do not usually store sensitive information about you, such as credit card or bank details, photographs, your ID card or personal information, etc. The data they do store is of a technical nature, personal preferences, personalisation of content, etc.

The web server does not link you as a person but your web browser. In fact, if you usually browse with Internet Explorer and try browsing the same website with Firefox or Chrome you will see that the internet does not realise that you are the same person because it is actually associating the browser, not the person.

What types of cookies are there?

I. Types of cookies according to the entity that manages them:

Depending on the entity that manages the equipment or domain from which the cookies are sent and processes the data obtained, we can distinguish:

. Own Cookies: These are those that are sent to the User’s terminal equipment from a computer or domain managed by the editor itself and from which the service requested by the User is provided.
. Third-party cookies: These are those that are sent to the User’s terminal equipment from a computer or domain that is not managed by the editor, but by another entity that processes the data obtained through the cookies.
In the event that the cookies are installed from a computer or domain managed by the editor itself but the information collected through them is managed by a third party, they cannot be considered as own cookies.

II. Types of cookies according to the length of time they remain activated:

Depending on the length of time they remain activated in the terminal equipment, we can distinguish:
. Session cookies: These are a type of cookie designed to collect and store data while the user accesses a website. They are usually used to store information that only needs to be kept for the provision of the service requested by the user on a single occasion (e.g. a list of products purchased).
. Persistent cookies: These are a type of cookie in which the data remains stored in the terminal and can be accessed and processed for a period defined by the party responsible for the cookie, which can range from a few minutes to several years.

III. Types of cookies according to their purpose:

Depending on the purpose for which the data obtained through cookies are processed, we can distinguish between:
. Technical Cookies: These are those used by the Website that allow the User to browse and use the different options or services offered such as, for example, controlling traffic and data communication, accessing restricted areas, carrying out the purchase process of an order, using security elements, storing content in order to broadcast videos or share content through social media.
. Personalisation cookies: These are cookies used by the Website that allow the User to access the Website with some predefined general characteristics depending on a series of criteria in their terminal such as, for example, language, type of browser, regional configuration from where they access the service, etc.
Personalisation cookies can provide information about which languages the User prefers and what their communication preferences are. They can also help the User to fill in forms on the Website more easily.
. Performance, analysis and browsing cookies: These are cookies used by the Website and by GOOGLE ANALYTICS that allow us to quantify the number of Users and thus carry out the measurement and statistical analysis of the use and activity of Users, as well as to draw up browsing profiles of them in order to be able to introduce improvements to the Website.
