Cookie types:

To provide more information to the user about the type and use of cookies, we inform you that:

  • According the point of view to the ‘lifetime’ of the cookie (time that a cookie remains active on our computer), we can differentiate cookies between:
  1. Session cookies: these are temporary cookies that remain in the cookie file of your navigator until you leave the web page, so none of them remain registered in the user’s hard disk. The information provided by these cookies is used to analyze web traffic patterns. This enables us to provide a better experience by improving the content and making it easier to use.
  2. Persistent cookies: they are stored in the hard disk and our web reads them every time you make a new visit. A permanent cookie has a specific expiration date. The cookie will stop working after that date. We use them, usually, to make the user’s experience easier by remembering their navigation habits or, where appropriate, to enable the purchase and/or registration services.
  • From the point of view of the purpose of each cookie,, we can distinguish between:
  1. Technical Cookies: They are those that allow the user to navigate through a web page, platform or application and the use of the different options or services that exist in it, including those that the editor uses to allow the management and operation of the web page and enable its functions and services.

Technical cookies, provided that they correspond to one of the following profiles, will be exempt from the compliance with the obligations established in article 22.2 of the LSSI*.(i.e., to obtain consent for its installation and use by means of the existence of a warning banner, cookies policy):

  • “User input” cookies
  • Authentication or user identification cookies ( only for session)
  • User security cookies
  • Media player session cookies
  • Load balancing session cookies
  • User interface customization cookies
  • Plug-in cookies for social content sharing

* according to the EU Expert Working Group, in Article 29 of its report 4/2012

  1. Preference or customization cookies: are those that allow remembering information for the user to access the service with certain features that can differentiate their experience from that of other users, such as, for example, the language, the number of results to display when the user performs a search, the appearance or content of the service depending on the type of navigator through which the user accesses the service or the region from which the user accesses the service, etc.

If it is the user himself who chooses these characteristics (for example, if he selects the language of a website by clicking on the icon of the flag of the corresponding country), the cookies will be exempt from the obligations of article 22.2 of the LSSI because it is considered a service expressly requested by the user, and this is provided that the cookies only obey the selected purpose.

  1. Measurement or analysis cookies:are those that allow the person in charge of them to analyze and follow-up on the behavior of the users of the websites to which they are linked, including the quantification of the impact of the advertisements. The information collected through this type of cookies is used in the measurement of the activity of the websites, application or platform, in order to make improvements based on the analysis of the usage data made by the users of the service.
  1. Behavioral advertising cookies: are those that store information on user behavior acquired through the continuous observation of their navigation habits, which allows the development of a specific profile to display advertising based on this.
  • Finally, from the point of view of the entity that manages the cookies, we can differentiate between:
  1. Own Cookies: are those that are sent to the user’s terminal equipment from a computer or domain managed by the publisher itself and from which the service requested by the user is provided.
  2. Third party cookies: 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 cookies.
