Cookies Policy
What are cookies?
In English, the term “cookie” means 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 browsing, habits, preferences, content customization, etc.
There are other technologies that work in a similar way and are also used to collect data about your browsing activity. We will refer to all these technologies collectively as “cookies.”
The specific uses we make of these technologies are described in this document.

What types of cookies are used on this website?
Each website uses its own cookies. On our website, we use those listed below:
ACCORDING TO THE ENTITY THAT MANAGES THEM
Own cookies:
These are those that are sent to the User’s terminal equipment from a device or domain managed by the editor itself and from which the service requested by the User is provided.
Third-party cookies:
These are those that are sent to the User’s terminal equipment from a device or domain that is not managed by the editor, but by another entity that processes the data obtained through cookies.
If cookies are served from a device or domain managed by the editor but the information collected through them is managed by a third party, they cannot be considered as own cookies if the third party uses them for its own purposes (for example, to improve the services it provides or to provide advertising services to other entities).
ACCORDING TO THEIR PURPOSE
Technical cookies:
These are necessary for navigation and the proper functioning of our Website, for example, to control traffic and data communication, identify the session, access restricted areas, register for or participate in an event, count visits for software license billing for the Website’s service, use security elements while browsing, store content for the broadcasting of videos or sound, enable dynamic content (e.g., text or image loading animation).
Analytics cookies:
They allow the number of users to be quantified and thus enable the statistical measurement and analysis of how users use the Website.
Preference or personalization cookies:
These allow remembering information so that the User can access the service with certain characteristics that can differentiate their experience from that of other users, such as language, number of results displayed when performing a search, the appearance or content of the service depending on the browser used, 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 is only needed to provide the service requested by the User on a single occasion (for example, a list of purchased products) and disappear when the session ends.
Persistent cookies:
These are those in which the data remain stored on the terminal and can be accessed and processed for a period defined by the person responsible for the cookie, 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 through the use of session cookies. In any case, when persistent cookies are installed, it is recommended to minimize their duration in accordance with the purpose of their use. For these purposes, Opinion 4/2012 of the WP29 indicated that for a cookie to be exempt from the duty of informed consent, its expiration must be related to its purpose. For this reason, session cookies are much more likely to be considered exempt than persistent ones.
