What types of cookies are used on this website?
Each website uses its own cookies. On our website we use the following:
ACCORDING TO THE ENTITY THAT MANAGES IT
First-party cookies:
They 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.
Third-party cookies:
They are those that are sent to the User’s terminal equipment from a computer or domain that is not managed by the publisher, but by another entity that processes the data obtained through the cookies.
In the event that cookies are served from a computer or domain managed by the publisher itself, but the information collected through them is managed by a third party, they cannot be considered as own cookies if the third party uses them for their own purposes (for example, the improvement of the services it provides or the provision of advertising services in favor of other entities).
ACCORDING TO ITS PURPOSE
Technical cookies:
They are those necessary for the navigation and proper functioning of our Website, such as, for example, control traffic and data communication, identify the session, access restricted access parts, make the request for registration or participation in an event, count visits for the purposes of the billing of the software with which the service of the Website works, use security elements during navigation, store content for the dissemination of videos or sound, enable dynamic content (for example, animation of loading).
Analytical cookies:
They allow to quantify the number of users and thus perform the measurement and statistical analysis of the use made by users of the Website.
Preference Cookies:
They are those that allow to remember information so that the User accesses the service with certain characteristics that can differentiate their experience from that of other users, such as, for example, the language, the number of results to be displayed 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 he accesses the service, etc.
Online Behavioral Advertising (OBA) cookies:
They are those that, treated by us or by third parties, allow us to analyze your browsing habits on the Internet so that we can show you advertising related to your browsing profile.
Affiliate Cookies:
They are those that allow to keep track of visits from other websites, with which the Owner has an affiliation contract.
The Owner participates in the Amazon EU Affiliate Program. Amazon and other advertisers may install cookies on your computer that serve to obtain information, provide you with advertisements, display interest-based content, or to track your browsing, saving affiliate information in case you make a purchase within 24 hours.
You can find more information at: Amazon Affiliate Program| Notice of advertising based on the interests of the user.
DEPENDING ON THE TIME LEFT UP
Session cookies:
They are those designed to collect and store data while the User accesses a web page.
They are usually used to store information that is only of interest to keep for the provision of the service requested by the User on a single occasion (for example, a list of products purchased) and disappear at the end of the session.
Persistent cookies:
They are those in which the data is still stored in the terminal and can be accessed and processed for a period defined by the person responsible for the cookie, and that can range from a few minutes to several years. In this regard, it should be specifically assessed whether the use of persistent cookies is necessary, since the risks to privacy could be reduced by the use of session cookies. In any case, when persistent cookies are installed, it is recommended to reduce to the minimum necessary their temporary duration according to the purpose of their use. For this purpose, Opinion 4/2012 of the GT29 indicated that in order for a cookie to be exempt from the duty of informed consent, its expiration must be related to its purpose. Because of this, session cookies are much more likely to be considered as excepted than persistent ones.
