What are Cookies?

A cookie is a file that is downloaded to your computer/smartphone/tablet when you access certain websites. Cookies allow a website, among other things, to store and retrieve information about the browsing habits of a user or their computer and, depending on the information they contain and the way they use your computer, they can be used to recognise the user. The main purposes of cookies are as follows: to ensure that web pages can function correctly and to store your preferences, such as the language you have selected or the font size, to learn about your browsing experience, to collect anonymous statistical information, such as which pages you have viewed or how long you have been on our media.

What types of cookies do we use?

According to the entity that manages them

First-party cookies: these are those that are sent to your computer from our own equipment or domains and from which we provide the service you request.
Third-party cookies: these are those that are sent to your computer from a computer or domain that is not managed by us, but by another collaborating entity. Such as, for example, external plug-ins from Google. Their use implies the sending of cookies. For more information, please see: How Google uses cookies. The information collected by Google's external plug-ins on our website, including the user's IP address, may be transmitted to and stored by Google on its servers. This information is managed entirely by Google. These cookies do not identify you personally unless you are logged in to Google, in which case you will be linked to that Google account. For more information see: Types of cookies used by Google and Google's Privacy Policy: Privacy Policy.

Depending on the time they remain active

Session cookies: these are temporary cookies that remain in the cookie file of your browser until you leave the website, so none of them remain registered on your computer's hard drive. The information obtained through these cookies is used to analyse web traffic patterns. In the long run, this allows us to provide a better experience to improve the content and facilitate its use.
Persistent Cookies: these are stored on your hard drive and our website reads them each time you visit our site. A persistent website has a specific expiry date. The cookie will stop working after that date. We generally use these cookies to facilitate the purchase and registration services.

According to their function

Technical cookies: these allow the user to browse through a website, platform or application and use the different options or services that exist on it, including those that the editor uses to allow the management and operation of the website and to enable its functions and services, such as, for example, controlling traffic and data communication, identifying the session, accessing restricted access areas, among other functions.
Preference or personalisation cookies: these enable information to be remembered 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 they access the service, etc.
Analysis or measurement cookies: these are cookies that allow the party responsible for them to monitor and analyse the behaviour of the users of the websites to which they are linked, including the quantification of the impact of advertisements. The information collected through this type of cookies is used to measure the activity of the websites, application or platform, in order to introduce improvements based on the analysis of the data on the use made by users of the service.
Behavioural advertising cookies: these are cookies that store information on the behaviour of users obtained through the continuous observation of their browsing habits, which allows a specific profile to be developed in order to display advertising based on the same.
