What types of cookies are used on this website?

Each website uses its own cookies. On our website we use those listed below:

ACCORDING TO THE ENTITY THAT MANAGES IT

  • First-party cookies: these 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: these 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 the 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 own cookies if the third party uses them for its own purposes (for example, to improve the services it provides or to provide advertising services for other entities).

ACCORDING TO THEIR PURPOSE

  • Technical cookies: are those necessary for browsing and the proper functioning of our website, such as, for example, controlling traffic and data communication, identifying the session, accessing parts of restricted access, remembering the elements that make up an order, carrying out the purchase process of an order, managing payment, controlling fraud linked to the security of the service, making the application for registration or participation in an event, count visits for the purpose of invoicing software licenses with which the service works (website, platform or application), use security elements during browsing, store content for the broadcasting of videos or sound, enable dynamic content (for example, text or image loading animation) or share content through social networks.
  • Analysis cookies: these allow us to quantify the number of users and thus carry out the measurement and statistical analysis of the use made by users of the service offered. To do this, your browsing on our website is analysed in order to improve the range of products or services that we offer.
  • Preference or personalisation cookies: these allow us to remember information so that the user can access the service with certain characteristics that may differentiate their experience from that of other users, such as, for example, the language, the number of results to be shown 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 the user accesses the service, etc.
  • Behavioural advertising: these are those which, processed by us or by third parties, allow us to analyse your browsing habits on the Internet so that we can show you advertising related to your browsing profile.

ACCORDING TO THE LENGTH OF TIME THEY REMAIN ACTIVATED.

  • Session cookies: these are those designed to collect and store data while the user accesses a web page. Cookies policy of Adrián Delgado López, They are usually used to store information that is only interesting to keep for the provision of the service requested by the user on a single occasion (for example, a list of products purchased) and disappear at the end of the session.
  • Persistent cookies: these are cookies in which the data remain stored in the terminal and can be accessed and processed for a period defined by the party responsible for the cookie, which can range from a few minutes to several years. In this respect, it should be specifically assessed whether the use of persistent cookies is necessary, as privacy risks could be reduced by the use of session cookies. In any case, when persistent cookies are set, it is recommended to reduce their temporary duration to the minimum necessary in view of the purpose of their use. To this end, WG29 Opinion 4/2012 indicated that for a cookie to be exempt from the duty of informed consent, its expiry must be related to its purpose.As a result, session cookies are much more likely to be considered exempt than persistent cookies.
