Cookie Policy
This website uses Cookies. Cookies are files sent to a browser through a web server to record the User's activities on a specific website. The first purpose of Cookies is to provide the user with faster access to the selected services. In addition, Cookies personalize the services offered by the Web, providing and offering each user information that is of interest to them or that may be of interest to them, based on their use of the Services.
What are cookies?
The Web uses Cookies to personalize and facilitate user navigation as much as possible. Cookies are associated only with an anonymous user and their computer and do not provide references that allow us to deduce personal data about the user. The user can configure their browser to notify and reject the installation of Cookies sent by the Web, without affecting the user's ability to access the contents of that website. However, we would like to point out that, in any case, the quality of operation of the website may decrease.
Registered users, who register or who have logged in, will be able to benefit from more personalized and profile-oriented services, thanks to the combination of the data stored in the cookies with the personal data used at the time of their registration. These users expressly authorize the use of this information for the indicated purpose, without prejudice to their right to refuse or disable the use of cookies.
In addition, the Web will be able to know all the services requested by users, so that they can provide or offer information appropriate to the tastes and preferences of each user.
What types of cookies are there?
Cookies, depending on their permanence, can be divided into:
- “Session cookies”: The first cookies expire when the user closes the browser.
- “Persistent cookies”. The latter expire depending on when the purpose for which they serve is fulfilled (for example, so that the user remains identified in the Services) or when they are deleted manually.
Additionally, depending on their Purpose, Cookies can be classified as follows:
- Cookies performance: This type of Cookie remembers your preferences for the tools found in the services, so you don't have to reconfigure the service each time you visit. As an example, this typology includes:
- Volume settings for video or sound players.
- The video transmission speeds that are compatible with your browser.
- Geo-location cookies: These Cookies are used to find out what country you are in when you request a service. This Cookie is completely anonymous, and is only used to help direct content to your location.
- Registration cookies: Registration cookies are generated once the user has registered or subsequently opened their session, and are used to identify them in services for the following purposes:
- Keep the user identified so that, if they close a service, the browser or the computer and at another time or another day they re-enter that service, they will remain identified, thus facilitating their navigation without having to re-identify themselves. This functionality can be deleted if the user clicks the “log out” functionality, so that this Cookie is deleted and the next time the user enters the service the user will have to log in to be identified.
- Check if the user is authorized to access certain services, for example, to participate in a contest.
- Analytical cookies: Every time a User visits a service, a tool from an external provider generates an analytical Cookie on the user's computer. This Cookie, which is only generated during the visit, will serve on future visits to the Web Services to anonymously identify the visitor. The main objectives that are being pursued are:
- Allow the anonymous identification of browsing users through the “Cookie” (it identifies browsers and devices, not people) and therefore the approximate accounting of the number of visitors and their trend over time.
- Anonymously identify the most visited content and therefore most attractive to users.
- Find out if the user you are accessing is new or a repeat visit.
- Important: Unless the user decides to register for a web service, the “Cookie” will never be associated with any personal data that can identify them. These Cookies will only be used for statistical purposes that help to optimize the Users' experience on the site.
- Behavioral advertising cookies: This type of “Cookies” allows us to expand the information of the advertisements shown to each anonymous user on the Web Services. Among others, the duration or frequency of viewing advertising positions, the interaction with them, or the user's browsing patterns and/or sharing are stored as they help to form a profile of advertising interest. In this way, they make it possible to offer advertising related to the user's interests.
- Third-party advertising cookies: In addition to advertising managed by the Web on its Services, the Web offers its advertisers the option of serving advertisements through third parties (“AdServers”). In this way, these third parties can store Cookies sent from the Web Services from Users' browsers, as well as access the data stored in them.
