What types of cookies are used on this website?
Each website uses its own cookies. On our website we use those indicated below:
ACCORDING TO THE ENTITY THAT MANAGES IT
- First-party cookies: 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: 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 cookies are served from a computer or domain managed by the editor itself, but the information collected through these is managed by a third party, they cannot be considered as first-party cookies if the third party uses them for its own purposes (for example, the improvement of the services it provides or the provision of advertising services in favor of other entities).
ACCORDING TO THEIR PURPOSE
- Technical cookies: are those necessary for navigation and the proper functioning of our website, such as, for example, controlling traffic and data communication, identifying the session, accessing restricted access parts, remembering the elements that make up an order, performing the purchase process of an order, managing payment, controlling fraud linked to the security of the service, making the request for registration or participation in an event, counting visits for the purposes of billing software licenses with which the service works (website, platform or application), using security elements during navigation, storing content for the broadcasting of videos or sound, enabling dynamic content (for example, loading animation of a text or image) or sharing content through social networks.
- Analysis cookies: allow quantifying the number of users and thus performing the measurement and statistical analysis of the use made by users of the offered service. To do this, your navigation on our website is analyzed in order to improve the offer of products or services that we offer you.
- Preference or personalization cookies: are those that allow information to be remembered so that the user accesses the service with certain characteristics that can differentiate their experience from that of other users, such as, for example, the language, the number of results to show when the user performs a search, the appearance or content of the service depending on the type of browser through which the user accesses the service or the region from which they access the service, etc.
- Behavioral advertising: are those that, processed by us or by third parties, allow us to analyze your Internet browsing habits so that we can show you advertising related to your browsing profile.
ACCORDING TO THE PERIOD OF TIME THEY REMAIN ACTIVATED
- Session cookies: are those designed to collect and store data while the user accesses a website. They are usually used to store information that only interests to keep for the provision of the service requested by the user on a single occasion (for example, a list of purchased products) and they disappear when the session ends.
- Persistent cookies: are those in which the data remains stored in the terminal and can be accessed and processed during a period defined by the person responsible for the cookie, and which can range from a few minutes to several years. In this regard, it must be specifically assessed whether the use of persistent cookies is necessary, since privacy risks could be reduced through the use of session cookies. In any case, when persistent cookies are installed, it is recommended to reduce their temporal duration to the necessary minimum according to the purpose of their use. To these effects, Opinion 4/2012 of the WP29 indicated that for a cookie to be exempt from the duty of informed consent, its expiration must be related to its purpose. Due to this, it is much more likely that session cookies are considered as exempted than persistent ones.
