What types of cookies are used on this website?
Each website uses its own cookies. On our website we use the ones listed below:
ACCORDING TO THE ENTITY THAT MANAGES THEM
First‑party cookies:
These are those sent to the User’s device from a computer or domain managed by the website editor itself and from which the service requested by the User is provided.
Third‑party cookies:
These are those sent to the User’s device from a computer or domain not managed by the editor, but by another entity that processes the data obtained through cookies.
If cookies are served from a computer or domain managed by the editor itself, but the information collected is managed by a third party, they cannot be considered first‑party cookies if the third party uses them for their own purposes (for example, improving the services they provide or providing advertising services for other entities).
ACCORDING TO THEIR PURPOSE
Technical cookies:
These are necessary for browsing and the proper functioning of our Website, for example: controlling traffic and data communication, identifying sessions, accessing restricted access areas, processing requests for registration or participation in an event, counting visits for software license billing, using security elements during navigation, storing content for video or audio distribution, enabling dynamic content (e.g., loading animation for text or images), or sharing content through social networks.
Analytics cookies:
They allow quantifying the number of users and performing measurement and statistical analysis of how users use the Website.
Preference or personalization cookies:
These allow remembering information so that the User accesses the service with certain characteristics that may differentiate their experience from other users, such as language, the number of search results to display, the appearance or content of the service depending on the type of browser used by the User, or the region from which the User accesses the service, etc.
ACCORDING TO THE LENGTH OF TIME THEY REMAIN ACTIVE
Session cookies:
These are designed to collect and store data while the User accesses a web page.
They are usually used to store information that only needs to be kept 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:
These are those in which the data remains stored on the device and can be accessed and processed for a period defined by the cookie controller, which may range from a few minutes to several years. In this regard, it must be specifically assessed whether the use of persistent cookies is necessary, since privacy risks could be reduced with the use of session cookies. In any case, when persistent cookies are installed, their duration should be minimized according to their purpose. For these purposes, Opinion 4/2012 of WP29 indicated that for a cookie to be exempt from the obligation of informed consent, its expiration must be related to its purpose. Because of this, session cookies are more likely to be considered exempt than persistent cookies.
