Our website uses cookies and, in compliance with Article 22.2 of Law 34/2002 of 11 July on Information Society Services and Electronic Commerce (LSSI), as supplemented by the current GDPR Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 and the LOPDGDD Organic Law 3/2018 on the Protection of Personal Data, we will inform you about what cookies are, which ones we use on our website, how to accept, delete or configure them on your device, and we will ask for your consent to use them.

What are cookies?

A cookie is a small file that is installed on your computer, mobile phone or tablet through your browser. It contains numbers and letters that identify your browsing and sends information back and forth between the browser and the websites visited. It can only be read and understood by the website that created it. Cookies cannot contain viruses nor be executed, since they are not active files.

They can serve various purposes such as, for example, recognising you as a user, obtaining information about your browsing habits, or personalising the way content is displayed.

Types of cookies in general

Depending on who manages them:

• First-party: if we manage them
• Third-party: if others are responsible for them and they provide us with aggregated and statistical information about our users’ browsing

Depending on their purpose:

• Technical: they enable browsing on our website based on the platform or application we use. They provide website features that otherwise would not allow you to browse, share or buy, and they also provide security.
• Preference or personalisation: they allow you to choose your preferred language, the number of results per search, and the appearance or content of the service depending on which browser you use or whether you access from a mobile phone or tablet. This creates a user profile and remembers you on subsequent visits, but only if you choose those settings.
• Analytics or measurement: they allow user profiles to be created based on your preferences or browsing habits. In this way, we can see which parts of the website are of most interest to our users, which geographical areas they come from, age ranges, gender, browser used, visit duration, etc. With all that information aggregated and presented statistically, we can improve our content to offer you better services.
• Marketing: these cookies, based on user profiles and browsing habits, collect aggregated information to provide personalised advertising according to your preferences or interests, so that when you visit our website, advertising spaces will show information that we believe may be of interest to you and related to your preferences.

They also help us manage our online advertising campaigns and direct our resources towards an audience segment that we believe may be more interested in our products or services.

• Social cookies: these are set by social media platforms on the services to allow you to share content with your friends and networks. Social media platforms may be able to track your online activity outside the Services. This may affect the content and messages you see on other services you visit.
• Affiliate cookies: they allow tracking of visits from other websites with which the website has an affiliate agreement (affiliate companies).
• Security cookies: they store encrypted information to prevent the data stored in them from being vulnerable to malicious third-party attacks.

Depending on how long they remain active:

• Session: those that remain active while you browse during each session and then disappear
• Persistent: those that remain on your computer for a longer period to perform continuous tracking, provided that you return to browse our website

Cookies exempt from the obligation to inform and to request consent (Optional)

Those that only allow communication between the user’s device and the network, or that are strictly used to provide a service expressly requested by the user (such as those used by an online shop, a media player or a social network if you are logged in).

“User input” cookies Session and user input cookies are usually used to track user actions when filling in online forms across several pages, or as a shopping basket to track items selected by the user by clicking a button.

User authentication or identification cookies (only if they are session cookies).

User security cookies, for example, cookies used to detect failed and repeated attempts to connect to a website.

Media player session cookies.

Load-balancing session cookies.
