Cookie Policy

A cookie is a file that is downloaded onto your computer when you gain access to certain websites. Among other things, cookies allow a website to store and recover information on the browsing habits of a User or his/her computer. Depending on the information they contain and the way the User makes use of his/her computer, they can be used to recognise the anonymous User.

Cookies are only associated with an anonymous User and his/her computer, and do not provide any references that allow the User’s personal data to be deduced.

Registered Users who are registered or have logged in can benefit from more personalised services directed at their profile, thanks to the combination of data stored in cookies and the personal data provided at the time of their registration. These Users expressly authorise the use of this information for the purposes stated, without prejudice to their right to refuse or disable the use of cookies.

1. Types of cookies according to the period of time they remain active

Depending on the period of time they remain active on the User’s terminal equipment, we can distinguish between:

Session cookies: These cookies are designed to collect and store data while the User accesses a website.

They are often used to store information that is only worth keeping in order to provide the service requested by the User on one single occasion (e.g. a list of purchased products).

Persistent cookies: In these cookies, data remain stored on the device, and can be accessed and processed over a defined period of time that is determined by the entity responsible for the cookie, and which can range from a few minutes to several years.

2. Types of cookies according to the entity managing them

Depending on the identity of the entity managing the server or domain that is sending the cookies and processing the data obtained, we can distinguish between:

First-party cookies: Cookies that are sent to the User’s terminal equipment from a server or domain that is managed by the publisher itself, and which also provides the User with the requested service.

Third-party cookies: Cookies that are sent to the User’s terminal equipment from a server or domain that is not managed by the publisher, but by another entity that processes the data obtained through these cookies.

3. Types of cookies according to their purpose

Depending on the purpose for which the data obtained through the cookies are processed, we can distinguish between:

• Technical cookies: Cookies that allow the User to browse through a website, platform or application and use the different options or services that are found on it. These could include, for example, controlling traffic and data communications, identifying the session, gaining access to restricted access areas, recording the elements included in an order, carrying out a purchasing process of an order, requesting registration for or taking part in an event, using security elements whilst browsing, storing contents for video and sound streaming or sharing content through social networks.
• Customisation cookies: Cookies that allow the User to gain access to the service with some pre-defined general settings based on a series of criteria in the User’s terminal. These could include, for example, the language, the type of browser though which the User gains access to the service, the regional configuration used to gain access to the service, etc.
• Analytical cookies: Cookies that allow the entity responsible for them to track and analyse the behaviour of Users on the websites they are linked to. The information collected through this type of cookie is used to measure the activity of websites, applications or platforms, and to create browsing profiles for Users of these websites, applications and platforms, in order to make improvements based on the analysis of data regarding the Users’ use of the service.
• Advertising cookies: Cookies that allow for the most effective management possible of any advertising space the publisher has included on a website, application or platform from which the requested service is provided, based on criteria such as the content published or the frequency with which advertisements are shown.
• Behavioural advertising cookies: Cookies that allow for the most effective management possible of any advertising space the publisher has included on a website, application or platform from which the requested service is provided. These cookies store behavioural data on a User, obtained through continuous observation of his/her browsing habits, which enables the development of a specific profile in order to display tailored advertising.
