What are cookies?
Cookies are small information files that are downloaded to your device and allow us (among other things) to compare and understand how our users navigate through our website and, in this way, to improve their navigation process. The cookies we use do not store any personal data or any information that can identify you.
Why are they important?
- From a technical point of view, they allow websites to work more agile and adapted to the user’s preferences, such as storing the language, the country’s currency or detecting the access device.
- They establish levels of protection and security that prevent or hinder cyber-attacks against the website or its users.
- They allow media managers to know statistical data collected in cookies to improve the quality and experience of their services.
- They are used to optimize the advertising we show to users, offering the advertising that best suits their interests.
- You can learn more about cookies and their use at aboutcookies.org.
What kind of cookies do we use?
Technical and security cookies: those that allow the user to navigate through a web page, platform or application and the use of the different options or services that exist in it.
Analytical Cookies: those that allow us to quantify the number of users and thus perform the measurement and statistical analysis of the use made by users of the service offered, in order to improve the supply of products or services we offer.
Personalization cookies: those that allow the user to access the service with some general characteristics predefined according to a series of criteria in the user’s terminal, such as language, type of browser, etc.
We can also classify cookies by their temporality:
Session cookies: they are deleted once the user leaves the web page that generated them.
Persistent cookies: they remain on your computer until a certain date.
Likewise, cookies can be own or third party cookies:
Own cookies: by the domain to which the user accesses and from which he/she requests a certain service.
Third-party cookies: sent to the user’s computer from a domain other than the one being accessed. Our “cookies” serve to identify a user session and/or a computer but do not read data from your hard drive, nor do they read “cookie” files created by other providers.
