1. Definition and function of cookies

A cookie is a file that is downloaded to your device when you access certain web pages.

Cookies allow a website, among other things, to store and retrieve information about the browsing habits of a user or their computer and, depending on the information they contain and the way in which they use their computer, they can be used to recognize the user.

2. Types of cookies

Depending on the entity that manages them:

First-party cookies: these are those that are sent to the user’s terminal equipment from a computer or domain managed by us 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 us, but by another entity that processes the data obtained through cookies.

Depending on the length of time they remain active:

Session cookies: these are a type of cookies designed to collect and store data while the user accesses a website.

Persistent cookies: these are a type of cookies in which the data is still 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.

According to their purpose:

Technical and personalisation cookies: the former allow the user to browse through the website and use the different services that exist, and the latter allow the user to access the service with some predefined general characteristics. For example, for language selection.

Analysis cookies: these are those that, either because they are processed by us or by third parties, allow us to quantify the number of users and thus carry out the measurement and statistical analysis of the use made by users of the service offered.

Advertising cookies: these are those that allow the management in the most efficient way possible, of the advertising spaces that, where appropriate, the publisher has included on a website, application or platform from which it provides the requested service based on criteria such as the content edited or the frequency in which the advertisements are displayed.

Behavioural advertising cookies: These are those that allow the management in the most efficient way possible, of the advertising spaces that, where appropriate, the publisher has included on a website, application or platform from which it provides the requested service. These cookies store information on user behaviour obtained through the continuous observation of their browsing habits, which allows the development of a specific profile to display advertising based on it.
