What is a Cookie?

Cookies are small data items sent to and stored on the user’s computer or device hard drive through their browser when this is connected to a website. Cookies can be used to receive and store user data in order to provide the services requested while they are online. These cookies are known as Session Cookies and are generally not saved. Cookies that can be saved indefinitely and store user data for other services in future are known as Persistent Cookies.

Among other things, Cookies allow these websites to store information about the user’s browsing habits (visits to our website, the frequency and length of those visits, which pages they viewed and how long they spent on our website), and, depending on the information they contain and the way in which their computer or device is used, they can be used to recognise the user.

Our website uses cookies to obtain information about how users use our website and about how it functions. In this respect, please note that we may use cookies for the following purposes:

  • To identify problems in order to improve our website

  • To distinguish you from other users
  • To obtain more information about your preferences and to personalise our website so that it is tailored to your interests.

Types of Cookie

There are several types of cookie:

  • Technical cookies make it easier for users to browse and use the different options or services provided by the website: they identify the session, allow users to access specific areas, facilitate orders, purchases, form filling, sign-ins, security and functions (such as videos and social networks, etc).
  • Personalisation cookies allow users to access the services according to their preferences (language, browser, settings, etc).
  • Analytical cookies allow the anonymous analysis of website user behaviour, allow user activity measurement and the creation of browsing profiles in order to objectively improve our website.
  • Advertising cookies enable the management of website advertising spaces.
  • Personalised advertising cookies allow website advertising spaces to be managed according to user behaviour and browsing habits, which are used to generate their profile and to personalise the advertising that the user sees in their browser.
  • Proprietary cookies are sent to your computer and managed exclusively by us in order to improve how the website functions. These cookies remain on your browser and allow us to identify you as a recurrent website user and to personalise content so that the content you see is tailored to your preferences.
  • Third-party cookies are created by another domain, one that is not our website. We are unable to access the data stored by third-party cookies when you browse, as when you access social networks or videos that are housed on third party websites.
