Cookies Policy

 

This website, as most on the Internet, uses cookies to improve and optimize the user’s experience.

 

Below you will find more detailed information on what cookies are, what type are used in this website, how to disable them in your browser or how to block their installation by third parties.

 

What are cookies?

Cookies are files that websites or applications install in the user’s browser or device (smartphone, tablet or connected television) while he/she surfs through the different sections of a site or application and are used to save information on such visit.

As in most sites on the Internet, this webpage uses cookies to:

  • Ensure that webpages work properly.
  • Save user preferences such as the selected language or font size.
  • Get to know the user’s browsing experience.
  • Collect anonymous statistical information such as the visited pages or how long the user has stayed on them.

The use of cookies helps to optimize browsing, by adapting information and services provided to the user’s interests in order to offer him/her a better surfing experience every time he/she visits a website.

This webpage uses cookies to operate as well as to adapt and simplify the user’s browsing.

 

Typology, purpose and implementation

Cookies, depending on their degree of permanency, can be divided into session or permanent cookies. The first ones expire when the user closes the browser. The second ones expire when their goal has been achieved (e.g. that the user remains identified on the website) or when they are manually deleted.

 

Additionally, based on their purposes, cookies can be classified as:

  • Technical: These are those required for the proper functioning of the page. They are usually generated when the user gains access to the website or starts a session on it and are used to identify him/her on such site with the following objectives:
    • Keep the user identified so that, if he/she leaves the web, browser or device and returns to it later, he/she will still remain identified. In this way his/her surfing will be easier and he/she will not have to identify himself/herself once more.
    • Check if the user is authorized to access certain services or sections of the website.
    • Improve the browsing experience and optimize the functioning of the website by, for example, saving the settings of specific services or the items in the shopping cart.
  • Customizable: These cookies allow the user to specify or personalize some features of the webpage’s general options such as choosing the language, regional configuration or type of browser.
  • Advertising: These collect details on the advertisements shown to users of the website. There are two types:
    • Anonymous: They only gather information about the advertising spaces shown on the website, even if the user does not visit such website, that is, he/she is not expressly identified.
    • Personalized: They gather personal details of the web’s user on behalf of a third party so these advertising slots can be customized.
  • Analytical: These collect details on the browsing experience of the website’s user, most often anonymously, although sometimes they can uniquely and unmistakably identify the user in order to obtain reports on the interest shown in the services offered by the website.

What happens when you disable cookies?

Some functions or services may be disabled or subject to a different than expected performance when it comes to, for example, remain as an identified user, keep your purchases in the “shopping cart” of an electronic merchant or collect details on the user’s location, among others.

If you disable the use of cookies on this website, you will probably not be able to access specific sections or your browsing experience may be negatively affected.
