Cookies Policy

By browsing this website with cookies and local storage mechanisms activated, it is essential that you accept their use in accordance with this policy. If you do not accept, you can configure your browser to prevent their use.

Cookies and local storage are part of the technology necessary for a website to function and are not inherently harmful, but it is important that you are aware of their implications for your privacy.

This policy forms part of our privacy policy and includes the following:

  • What are cookies?

  • What are cookies used for?

  • What is local storage?

  • What are third party cookies?

  • How to prevent the use of cookies and how to delete cookies?

What are cookies?

Cookies are small temporary files that are created on the user’s device (computer, phone, tablet, etc.) when you visit a website, and which allow the website to store information, for example to save your preferences or to recognise you on subsequent visits.

When a website creates a cookie on the user’s device, the following is stored:

  • The address/domain of the website that created the cookie.

  • The duration of the cookie, which can range from a few minutes to several years.

  • The content of the cookie.

  • The user can at any time configure their browser to prevent (block) the use of cookies by certain websites, as well as delete previously stored cookies.

What types of cookies exist?

Cookies, depending on their permanence, can be divided into:

  • “Session Cookies”: They expire when the user closes the browser.

  • “Persistent cookies”. They expire depending on when the purpose for which they are used is fulfilled (for example, for the user to remain identified in the Services) or when they are manually deleted.

Depending on their purpose, Cookies can be classified as follows:

  • Performance Cookies: This type of Cookie remembers your preferences for the tools found on the Services, so you do not have to reconfigure the Service each time you visit a page. By way of example, this type of cookie includes: Video or sound player volume settings or video streaming speeds that are compatible with your browser.

Geo-location Cookies: These Cookies are used to find out which country you are in when you request a service. This Cookie is completely anonymous, and is only used to help target content to your location.

  • Registration Cookies: Registration Cookies are generated once the user has registered or subsequently logged in, and are used to identify you in the services with the following objectives: To keep the user identified so that, if you close a service and at another time or another day re-enter the same, the browser or computer will continue to be identified, thus facilitating your navigation without having to identify yourself again. This functionality can be deleted if the user clicks on the “close session” function, so that this Cookie is deleted and the next time the user enters the service he/she will have to log in to be identified.

  • Analytical Cookies: Each time a User visits a service, a tool from an external provider generates an analytical Cookie on the User’s computer. This Cookie, which is only generated during the visit, will be used in future visits to the Web Services to anonymously identify the visitor. The main objectives pursued are:

  1. To allow the anonymous identification of browsing users through the “Cookie” (identifies browsers and devices, not people) and therefore the approximate counting of the number of visitors and their trend over time.

  2. Identify anonymously the most visited content and therefore more attractive to users.

  3. To know whether the user accessing the site is new or a repeat visitor.

Important: Unless the user decides to register for a Web service, the “Cookie” will never be associated with any personal data that can identify him/her. These Cookies will only be used for statistical purposes to help optimise the user experience on the site.

  • Behavioural advertising Cookies: This type of “Cookies” allows to extend the information of the advertisements shown to each anonymous user in the Web Services. Among other things, they store the duration or frequency of viewing advertising positions, interaction with them, or the user’s browsing and/or sharing patterns, as they help to create a profile of advertising interest. In this way, they make it possible to offer advertising related to the user’s interests.

  • Third-party advertising cookies: In addition to the advertising managed by the Website in its Services, the Website offers its advertisers the option of serving ads through third parties (“AdServers”). In this way, these third parties can store Cookies sent from the Web Services from Users’ browsers, as well as access the data stored in them.

What is local storage?

By local storage we mean any file created by the website on your browsing device. Cookies are one form of local storage, but there are others, for example:

  • Browser local storage. Some websites use local storage called “sessionStorage” and “localStorage” to store information; “sessionStorage” is automatically deleted when the browser is closed; to delete “localStorage” the user must delete the browsing history.

  • Flash Local Shared Objects. Flash is a browser plug-in that allows interactive and multimedia elements to be incorporated into a website. Flash also allows the visited website to store files on the user’s device.

  • Silverlight Local Storage (“Isolated Objects”). Silverlight is a browser plug-in that allows interactive and multimedia elements to be incorporated into a website. Silverlight also allows the visited website to store files on the user’s device.

  • Web beacon is a tracking technique that consists of inserting an image hosted on an Internet server into the web or an e-mail so that when the browser or e-mail program connects to the server to download and view the image, access is logged. Sometimes these images are very small or transparent so that the user is not aware of their existence.

What are third-party cookies?

Many websites incorporate functions or features provided by third parties, for example:

  • Page access and usage analytics.

  • Interactive maps.

  • Videos and other multimedia elements.

  • Social buttons.

The provider of a function or feature may make use of cookies and other local storage technologies based on its own criteria and purposes. Some providers use cookies and other tracking technologies to collect information about your browsing habits in order to show you advertising tailored to your interests.

Browsing this website with cookies and local storage enabled necessarily implies acceptance of the privacy policies set by the providers of the following functions or features:
