1. General Information

Below, the User is provided with general information on what cookies are and what types of cookies exist.

What are cookies?

Cookies and other similar devices, such as pixels, web bugs, etc. are text or image files that are installed in the users browser when the user accesses an online service.

Cookies allow, among other things, to store and retrieve information about the user, the users browser, the users devices and the users activity on the service to which the user connects.

What types of cookies are there?

There are many types of cookies. Below, we offer the user some classifications of them, without necessarily implying that this service uses all of these types of cookies:

a) Depending on the entity that manages the cookies:

  • First-party cookies: these are those that are sent to the users device or terminal from the equipment or domain belonging to the owner of a service, and managed by the latter.
  • Third-party cookies: are those that are sent to the users device or terminal from a computer or domain that is not managed by the owner of a service, but by a third party that will process the information obtained through the cookies.

b) Depending on the shelf life:

  • Session cookies: these are cookies that collect and store data when the user accesses a service and cease to exist once the user leaves the service.
  • Persistent cookies: these are cookies that have a duration determined in time by the service provider. The conservation time can vary from a few minutes to several years. They are used to save and retrieve certain parameters each time the user visits a service.

c) According to their purpose:

  • Technical cookies: these are essential and strictly necessary for the correct functioning and use of the different options or services offered by those responsible for the same. For example, those used for session maintenance, response time management, performance or validation of options, use of security elements, etc.
  • Personalisation cookies: these are cookies that allow the user to specify or personalise some features of a service. For example, defining the language, regional configuration or type of browser.
  • Analytical cookies: these are cookies that allow us to count the number of unique visitors and analyse the use of a service in order to measure interest in it or in certain areas of it. For example, an analytical cookie would be used to control the geographical areas from which a higher percentage of users connect, which product or service is most popular, etc.
  • Advertising Cookies: these are those that allow the management of advertising spaces in a service.
  • Behavioural advertising cookies: these are cookies that allow the management of advertising spaces in a service. The function of these cookies is to store information on the behaviour of the users of a service, in order to subsequently display personalised advertising.

d) Other technologies:

  • Pixels, web bugs or trackers: also known as tracking pixels, pixel tags or conversion pixels, web beacons or web beacons. They are tiny 1x1 pixel transparent images that are inserted into a service in order to measure activity. Once a certain page of the service is loaded in a browser, the image will load and this data can be measured. Tracking pixels generally make it possible to track how far a given user IP has travelled through an online service.
  • HTML5 storage: this consists of taking advantage of the capabilities of HTML5 technology to store certain parameters in the users browser that can be used to identify the users browser.
  • Local shared objects (LSO): also known as "flash cookies", this is the storage of information without cookies on the users computer, taking advantage of Adobe Flash Player technology.
  • Etags: this is a mechanism of the HTTP protocol that allows the validation of the cache that the user saves in his browser on a website. This technology is mainly used to save bandwidth, avoiding the downloading of duplicate content. However, it can also be used to recognise the users browser.
  • Canvas fingerprinting: this is the generation of a unique form in the users browser using HTML5 web standard technology to identify the users computer.
  • Source detection: this technique consists of identifying the source configuration of the users equipment to obtain a unique identification of the equipment.
  • Browser cache: as its name suggests, this technique consists of storing information in the browser cache.
  • WebGL: this technique makes it possible to take advantage of the 3D rendering capabilities of modern browsers to obtain a unique identification of the equipment, due to the different configurations of each one.
