1. Definition and general function of cookies
What are cookies?
This website uses cookies and/or similar technologies that store and retrieve information about those who browse our website. A cookie is a small text file that is stored in the user’s browser, the main purpose of which is to remember who has already visited the page, to allow or facilitate browsing, to store information about your preferences, to analyse how you interact or to measure the use made of the services provided by the website and to be able to improve them. Sometimes they will also be used to show you advertising based on your browsing habits and profile.
In general, cookies can be used for many different purposes, such as, for example, recognising the user, obtaining information about your browsing habits, or personalising the way in which content is displayed.
What are cookies NOT used for on this website?
We do not store sensitive information that directly identifies you personally, such as your address, password, credit or debit card details, etc., in the cookies we use.
The specific uses we make of these technologies are described below.
2. Information on the type of cookies used and their purpose
In accordance with the provisions of the Law on Information Society Services and Electronic Commerce, and pursuant to the guidelines established by the Spanish Data Protection Agency, we inform you in the following section of the cookies that exist on our website.
3. Identification of who uses cookies
Depending on who uses the cookies, these may be first-party or third-party cookies:
- Own cookies: 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: 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 party that processes the data obtained through the cookies.
4. Types of cookies
To enable you to give fully informed consent, the following is a description of what each type of cookie consists of and what its purpose is:
- Technical cookies: these allow the user to browse a website, platform or application and use the different options or services that exist on it, including the management and operation of the website, and enable its functions and services, such as, for example, identifying the session, accessing restricted access areas, remembering the elements that make up an order, carrying out the purchase process of an order, managing payment, etc. The website cannot function properly without these cookies, which is why they are considered necessary and do not require your consent.
- Preference or personalisation cookies: these enable the website to remember information that changes the way the page behaves or its appearance, so that the user may access the service with certain characteristics that may differentiate their options for using the website from those of other users, such as, for example, the language, the number of results to be shown when the user performs a search or the region in which the user is located. If it is the user themselves who chooses these characteristics, for example, by marking the language flag, it is considered a service expressly requested as long as the cookies are exclusively for the selected purpose of personalisation. As in the previous case, these cookies do not require your consent.
- Analytics or measurement cookies: these are cookies that enable us to understand how visitors interact with the web pages and thus perform a statistical analysis of the use made by users of the website of the services provided. The information collected is used to measure the activity of the websites or application for the purpose of improving the products and services offered by the party responsible.
- Marketing or behavioural advertising cookies: these store information on user behaviour obtained through the continuous observation of their browsing habits, enabling a specific profile to be drawn up in order to display relevant and attractive advertisements for the individual user, and therefore more valuable for third-party advertisers.
We use our own and third-party technical, personalisation, analytical and advertising cookies for the purposes set out in the following cookie statement:
| TYPE | NAME | PURPOSE | EXPIRY | OWN/THIRD PARTIES |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| PREFERENCE | wp-wpml_current_language | Language preference | 24 hours | OWN |
We require your consent for analytical and advertising cookies, which can be obtained by the user clicking on the “I accept” button in the information message displayed when you access our website.
If you deactivate cookies, you will still be able to access the website, but browsing the website may not be optimal and some of the services offered may not work correctly.
