Cookie Policy

What are cookies?

In English, the term “cookie” means a biscuit, but in the context of web browsing, a “cookie” is something completely different. When you access our website, a small amount of text called a “cookie” is stored in your device’s browser. This text contains various information about your navigation, habits, preferences, content customizations, etc. Other technologies that work similarly and are also used to collect data about your browsing activity will be collectively referred to as “cookies.” The specific uses we make of these technologies are described in this document.

Why are cookies used on this website?

Cookies are an essential part of how the website functions. The main purpose of our cookies is to enhance your browsing experience. For example, to remember your preferences (language, country, etc.) during navigation and on future visits. The information collected in cookies also allows us to improve the website, tailor it to your interests as a user, speed up searches you perform, etc. In certain cases, if we have obtained your prior informed consent, we may use cookies for other purposes, such as obtaining information that allows us to show you advertising based on the analysis of your browsing habits.

What are cookies NOT used for on this website?

The cookies we use do not store sensitive personal identification information such as your name, address, password, etc.

Who uses the information stored in cookies?

The information stored in cookies on our website is used exclusively by us, except for those identified later as “third-party cookies,” which are used and managed by external entities that provide services to improve the user experience. For example, statistics collected about the number of visits, preferred content, etc., are usually managed by Google Analytics.

How can you avoid the use of cookies on this website?

If you prefer to avoid the use of cookies, you can REJECT their use or CONFIGURE which ones to avoid and which ones to allow (this document provides detailed information on each type of cookie, its purpose, recipient, temporality, etc.). If you have accepted them, we will not ask again unless you delete the cookies on your device as indicated in the section below. If you want to revoke consent, you will need to delete the cookies and reconfigure them.

How do I disable and delete the use of cookies?

What types of cookies are used on this website?

Each website uses its own cookies. On our website, we use the ones listed below:

BY THE ENTITY THAT MANAGES IT

• First-party cookies: These are sent to the user’s terminal from a device or domain managed by the publisher itself and from which the requested service is provided.
• Third-party cookies: These are sent to the user’s terminal from a device or domain that is not managed by the editor but by another entity that processes data obtained through cookies. In the event that cookies are served from a device or domain managed by the publisher itself, but the information collected through them is managed by a third party, they cannot be considered first-party cookies if the third party uses them for its own purposes (for example, improving the services it provides or providing advertising services on behalf of other entities).

BY THEIR PURPOSE

• Technical cookies: Necessary for the navigation and proper functioning of our website, such as controlling traffic and data communication, identifying the session, accessing restricted access parts, making the registration request or participating in an event, counting visits for the billing of licenses for the software with which the website service operates, using security elements during navigation, storing content for the dissemination of videos or sound, enabling dynamic content (for example, loading animation of text or image), or sharing content through social networks.
• Analysis cookies: Allow quantifying the number of users and thus perform the measurement and statistical analysis of the use made by users of the website.
• Preference or customization cookies: These allow remembering information so that the user accesses the service with certain characteristics that can differentiate their experience from that of other users, such as language, the number of results to show 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 the user accesses the service, etc.

BY THE TIME THEY REMAIN ACTIVATED

• Session cookies: Designed to collect and store data while the user accesses a website. 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 purchased products) and disappear at the end of the session.
• Persistent cookies: The data is still stored on the terminal and can be accessed and processed for a period defined by the cookie owner, ranging from a few minutes to several years. It is recommended to minimize their temporal duration to the minimum necessary according to the purpose of their use.
