COOKIE POLICY
Learn about our cookie policy. Article 22.2 of Law 34/2002, of 11 July, on information society services and electronic commerce (LSSI) establishes that data storage and retrieval devices may be used on recipients’ terminal equipment, provided that they have given their consent after being provided with clear and complete information about their use, particularly regarding the purposes of data processing, in accordance with the provisions of current personal data protection regulations. In this regard, cookies may be stored on your device.
The identifying data of the website publisher and data controller can be found in full in the Legal Notice and Privacy Policy of this website.
In the event that cookies are used that are not necessary for the operation of the website, you may accept or reject them in this panel.
1. What are cookies?
Cookies and other similar technologies such as local shared objects, flash cookies or pixels, are tools used by Web servers to store and retrieve information about their visitors, as well as to enable the proper functioning of the site.
Through these devices, a web server can remember certain data concerning the user, such as their preferences for viewing the server’s pages, name and password, products that interest them most, etc.
2. Cookies affected by the regulations and exempt cookies
According to the EU directive, the cookies that require the informed consent of the user are analytical cookies, advertising and social network cookies, except those of a technical nature and those necessary for the operation of the website or the provision of services expressly requested by the user.
Exempt cookies (they do not require consent):
• Technical cookies: those that allow the user to navigate through a website, platform or application and use the different options or services that exist therein.
• User input cookies
• Authentication or user identification cookies (session only)
• User security cookies
• Multimedia player session cookies
• Load balancing session cookies
• User interface customisation cookies
• Plugin cookies for sharing social content, when the user has chosen to keep the session open.
Classification of cookies subject to information and consent, according to the Spanish Data Protection Agency report:
3.1. Types of cookies according to the entity managing them:
– First-party cookies: These are sent to the user’s terminal equipment from equipment or a domain managed by the publisher itself and from which the service requested by the user is provided.
– Third-party cookies: These are sent to the user’s terminal equipment from equipment or a domain that is not managed by the publisher, but by another entity that processes the data obtained through the cookies.
If cookies are installed from equipment or a domain managed by the publisher itself but the information collected through them is managed by a third party, they cannot be considered as first-party cookies if the third party uses them for its own purposes.
Users can learn about transfers to third countries that may be carried out by third parties identified in this cookie policy by consulting their own cookie policies.
Please note that if you accept third-party cookies, you must delete them from your browser options or from the system offered by the third party itself.
3.2. Types of cookies according to the length of time they remain active on the user’s terminal:
– Session cookies: These are cookies designed to collect and store data while the user accesses a website, to store information that only needs to be kept for the provision of the service requested by the user on a single occasion and disappear at the end of the session.
– Persistent cookies: These are cookies in which the data remains stored in the terminal and can be accessed and processed for a period defined by the cookie controller, which can range from a few minutes to several years. For a cookie to be exempt from the duty of informed consent, its expiry must be related to its purpose.
3.3. Types of cookies according to their purpose:
– Technical cookies: These allow the user to navigate through a website, platform or application and use the different options or services that exist therein, such as controlling traffic and data communication, identifying the session, accessing restricted access parts, remembering the elements that make up an order, carrying out the purchase process of an order, making the registration or participation request in an event, using security elements during navigation, storing content for the broadcasting of videos or sound, sharing content through social networks or managing advertising spaces that the publisher has included on the website. These cookies are exempt from consent when they allow the service requested by the user to be provided. However, if these cookies are also used for non-exempt purposes (for example, for behavioural advertising purposes), they will be subject to the obligation of information and consent.
– Preference or personalisation cookies: These allow information to be remembered so that the user accesses the service with certain general characteristics predefined according to a series of criteria in the user’s terminal, such as language, browser type through which they access the service, regional configuration from where they access the service, etc. If it is the user who chooses these characteristics (for example, if they select the language of a website by clicking on the flag icon of the corresponding country), the cookies will be exempt from consent as they are considered a service expressly requested by the user, and this is always provided that the cookies are exclusively for the selected purpose. If the decisions about these cookies are made by the website publisher, based on information obtained from the user, they will inform about this, offering the option to accept or reject it.
– Analysis or measurement cookies: These allow the person responsible for them to track and analyse the behaviour of users of the websites to which they are linked. The information collected through this type of cookie is used to measure the activity of websites, applications or platforms and to create navigation profiles of the users of these sites, applications and platforms, in order to introduce improvements based on the analysis of user data. They are not exempt from the duty to obtain informed consent for their use, and despite the low probability that they represent a risk to users’ privacy as long as they are first-party cookies, users must be able to object to their processing or express their refusal.
– Advertising or behavioural cookies: These allow the management, in the most efficient way possible, of the advertising spaces that the publisher has included on a website, application or platform from which the requested service is provided based on criteria such as edited content or the frequency at which ads are displayed. They store information about user behaviour obtained through continuous observation of their browsing habits, allowing a specific profile to be displayed of the observed user to show advertising based on that profile.
