Cookies Policy
Like most websites, we use cookies to store information, such as your preferences when visiting our website or data needed to access some of our features. By using our site, you represent that you have read and agree to our cookie policy, as well as Legal Notice and Privacy Policy.
I – What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer or smartphone when you use some websites, software or mobile applications (“sites”, in general). They carry information that these sites need to provide you with their services, facilitate navigation, preferences, manage advertising, etc. Learn more about cookies on Wikipedia: https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cookie_(inform%C3%A1tica)
II – Types of cookies
There are different ways to classify cookies, and the same cookie may receive different classifications, depending on how they are created and used. Note that these categories are not always standard, and other sites may use different classifications.
1 – According to the duration of the cookie.
a) Session cookies – Lasts only for one browsing session, and expires when the user closes the browser window. It is used, for example, to remember what a user has put in their shopping cart. These are considered less intrusive than other types of cookies.
b) Persistent cookies – These are stored on the users’ device between browser sessions, and can last for an indefinite number of days, set by the website that creates the cookie. They can be used to remember user preferences for future visits or for contextual advertising, for example. The intrusiveness of this type of cookie depends on whether it is used by the site itself or a third party, and what it is used for.
2 – According to the origin of the cookie
a) First-party cookies – When the website that creates the cookie is the same one that the user is visiting.
b) Third Party Cookies – When the cookie is placed from another Web site, it collects information to provide visitors with its own services or to track users by the sites they visit.
3 – According to the use of the cookie
a) Technical Cookies – Allow the user to navigate through a site and use any of the options or existing services, for example, control traffic and data communication, identify the session, restrict access to some pages, remember the elements of an order, process the purchase of an order, use a personal member area, use the security features of storage, video content or electronic sound or share content through social networks. Some of these cookies are considered “strictly necessary cookies” because it would be impossible to use the site without them.
b) Personalization Cookies – allow users to change the operation of a website according to their preferences (e.g., languages, styles, browser, etc.).
c) Analytical Cookies – Monitor user behavior on a website, and create statistics that can be used to tailor information to them, in order to improve services and content.
d) Advertising Cookies – Enable the effective management of advertising space offered by the site.
e) Behavioral advertising cookies – Store behavioral information of users through continuous observation of their browsing habits, sometimes across multiple sites. They are usually placed on third-party sites that offer some kind of service in return. A classic example is the “social buttons” that allow the interaction of a site with social networks such as Facebook, Google Plus or twitter.
