Cookie policy
What are cookies?
Cookies are files that can be downloaded to your device through web pages. They are tools that play an essential role in providing numerous services in the information society. Among other things, they allow a website to store and retrieve information about a user’s browsing habits or their device, and depending on the information obtained, they can be used to recognize the user and improve the service offered.
Types of cookies
According to the entity that manages the domain from which cookies are sent and processes the data obtained, two types can be distinguished:
- First-party cookies: Those sent to the user’s terminal from a device or domain managed by the editor itself and from which the requested service is provided.
- Third-party cookies: Those sent to the user’s terminal from a device or domain that is not managed by the editor but by another entity that processes the data obtained through cookies.
If cookies are installed from a device or domain managed by the editor, but the information collected through them is managed by a third party, they cannot be considered first-party cookies.
There is also a second classification based on the time they remain stored in the client’s browser:
- Session cookies: Designed to collect and store data while the user accesses a website. They are usually used to store information that is only of interest to preserve for the provision of the service requested by the user on a single occasion (e.g., a list of purchased products).
- Persistent cookies: Data remains stored on the terminal and can be accessed and processed for a period defined by the cookie’s controller, ranging from a few minutes to several years.
Finally, there is another classification with five types of cookies according to the purpose for which the obtained data is processed:
- Technical cookies: Allow the user to navigate through a website, platform, or application and use the different options or services available, such as controlling traffic and data communication, identifying the session, accessing restricted access parts, remembering elements that make up an order, carrying out the process of purchasing an order, requesting registration or participation in an event, using security elements during navigation, storing content for the dissemination of videos or sound, or sharing content through social networks.
- Customization cookies: Allow the user to access the service with some general predefined characteristics based on criteria in the user’s terminal, such as language, the type of browser through which they access the service, regional configuration from where they access the service, etc.
- Analysis cookies: Allow the controller to track and analyze the behavior of users of the websites to which they are linked. The information collected through this type of cookies is used in the measurement of the activity of websites, applications, or platforms and for the creation of navigation profiles of users of these sites, applications, and platforms, in order to introduce improvements based on the analysis of the usage data that users make of the service.
- Advertising cookies: Allow the most effective management of advertising spaces.
- Behavioral advertising cookies: Store information on the behavior of users obtained through continuous observation of their browsing habits, allowing the development of a specific profile to display advertising based on it.
- External social network cookies: Used to allow visitors to interact with the content of different social platforms (Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn, etc.) and are generated only for users of these social networks. The conditions of use of these cookies and the information collected are regulated by the privacy policy of the corresponding social platform.
