What cookies are

When you visit our website, a small amount of text is stored in your device's browser: this is what we call a “cookie”. That text contains varied information about your browsing, habits, preferences, content personalisation and so on.

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 of these technologies together as “cookies”.

The specific uses we make of these technologies are described in this document.

What cookies are used for on this website

Cookies are an essential part of how our website works. The main purpose of our cookies is to improve your browsing experience. For example, to remember your preferences (language, country, and so on) during your visit and on future visits. The information collected in cookies also allows us to improve the website, adapt it to your interests as a user, speed up the searches you carry out, and so on.

In certain cases, if we have obtained your prior informed consent, we may use cookies for other purposes, such as obtaining information that allows us to show you advertising based on the analysis of your browsing habits.

What cookies are NOT used for on this website

The cookies we use do not store sensitive personally identifying information such as your name, address, password, and so on.

Who uses the information stored in cookies

The information stored in the cookies on our website is used exclusively by us, with the exception of those identified below as ‘third-party cookies’, which are used and managed by external entities that provide us with services that improve the user experience. For example, the statistics collected on the number of visits, the most popular content and so on are usually managed by GOOGLE ANALYTICS.

Third-party cookies are also commonly used to secure the payment transactions carried out through the website.

How can I avoid the use of cookies on this website

If you prefer to avoid the use of cookies, you can REJECT their use, or you can CONFIGURE which ones you want to avoid and which ones you allow (in this document we give you extended information about each type of cookie, its purpose, recipient, duration and so on).

If you have accepted them, we will not ask you again unless you delete the cookies on your device as set out in the following section.

If you want to withdraw your consent, you will need to delete the cookies and configure them again.

How do I disable and delete the use of cookies

To restrict, block or delete the cookies from this website (and those used by third parties) you can do so at any time by changing your browser settings. Bear in mind that these settings are different in each browser, although cookie settings are usually found in the ‘Preferences’, ‘Tools’ or “Options” menu and then under “Privacy and Security” or “clear browsing data”, and so on.

For more detail on configuring cookies in each browser, you can consult its ‘Help’ menu.

What types of cookies are used on this website

Every website uses its own cookies. On our website we use the ones set out below:

By the entity that manages them

• First-party cookies: those sent to the user's terminal equipment from a machine or domain managed by the publisher itself, and from which the service requested by the user is provided.
• Third-party cookies: those sent to the user's terminal equipment from a machine or domain that is not managed by the publisher, but by another entity that processes the data obtained through the cookies.

Where cookies are served from a machine or domain managed by the publisher itself, but the information collected through them is managed by a third party, they cannot be considered first-party cookies if the third party uses them for its own purposes (for example, improving the services it provides or providing advertising services on behalf of other entities).

By their purpose

• Technical cookies: those necessary for browsing and for the proper functioning of our website, such as controlling traffic and data communication, identifying the session, accessing restricted areas, remembering the items that make up an order, carrying out the purchase process for an order, managing payment, controlling fraud linked to the security of the service, submitting a registration request or taking part in an event, counting visits for the purposes of invoicing software licences for the service (website, platform or application), using security features while browsing, storing content for the broadcasting of video or audio, enabling dynamic content (for example, a loading animation for a text or an image) or sharing content through social networks.
• Analytics cookies: these make it possible to quantify the number of users and thus to measure and statistically analyse the use that users make of the service offered. To do so, their browsing on our website is analysed with a view to improving the range of products or services we offer.
• Preference or personalisation cookies: those that make it possible to remember information so that the user accesses the service with certain characteristics that may differentiate their experience from that of other users, such as the language, the number of results to show when the user runs a search, the appearance or content of the service depending on the type of browser through which the user accesses the service or the region from which they access it, and so on.
• Behavioural advertising cookies: those which, processed by us or by third parties, allow us to analyse your browsing habits on the internet so that we can show you advertising related to your browsing profile.

By how long they stay active

• Session cookies: those designed to collect and store data while the user is accessing a website. They are usually used to store information that is only worth keeping for the provision of the service requested by the user on a single occasion (for example, a list of purchased products), and they disappear when the session ends.
• Persistent cookies: those in which the data remains stored on the terminal and can be accessed and processed for a period defined by the party responsible for the cookie, which may range from a few minutes to several years. In this regard, specific consideration should be given to whether the use of persistent cookies is necessary, since privacy risks could be reduced by using session cookies instead. In any event, where persistent cookies are installed, it is recommended that their duration be reduced to the minimum necessary for the purpose of their use. To that end, Opinion 4/2012 of the Article 29 Working Party stated that for a cookie to be exempt from the duty of informed consent, its expiry must be related to its purpose. As a result, session cookies are far more likely to be regarded as exempt than persistent ones.
