Our website uses a technology called "cookie", in order to obtain information about the use of the website, improve the user experience and guarantee its correct functioning.

 

Definition of Cookie

A "cookie" is a small fragment of text that websites send to the browser and which are stored on the user's terminal (computer or mobile device). These files are intended to store data that can be updated and recovered by the entity responsible for its installation. Thus, each time the user visits the same website again, the browser retrieves the file and sends it to the website's server. Cookies have several functions, including collecting information about the user's preferences and remembering it, and generally making it easier for the user to use the website, making the site more useful by personalizing its content.

 

Cookies can be classified based on different parameters:

 

  1. Ownership: own cookies and third-party cookies: depending on the entity that manages the domain from which the cookies are sent, and the data obtained is processed.

  2. Duration: session cookies and persistent cookies: according to the period of time, they remain stored on the user's terminal.

  3. Purpose: technical cookies, personalization cookies, analysis cookies, advertising cookies, behavioral advertising cookies, according to the purpose for which the data obtained is processed. 

    • Technical cookies: These are those that allow the user to navigate through the website or application and use the different options or services that exist therein. For example, controlling traffic and data communication, identifying the session or accessing restricted access web parts. 

    • Personalization cookies: These are those that allow the user to access the service with some general characteristics predefined in their terminal or that the user themselves define. For example, the language, the type of browser through which you access the service or the selected content design.

    • Analysis cookies: There are those that, either processed by us or by third parties, allow us to quantify the number of users and thus carry out statistical analysis of the use made by users of the service offered. To do this, your navigation on our website is analyzed to improve the offer of products or services that we offer.

    • Advertising cookies: There are those that allow the management, in the most efficient way possible, of the advertising spaces that, where appropriate, the editor has included in a web page, application, or platform from which the requested service is provided based on criteria, such as edited content or the frequency at which ads are shown.

    • Behavioral advertising 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 in a web page, application, or platform from which the requested service is provided. These cookies store information on user behavior obtained through continuous observation of their browsing habits, which allows the development of a specific profile to display advertising based on it.
