What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on the hard drive or in the memory of a computer that accesses or visits pages on certain websites, allowing the user's preferences to be known when they reconnect. Cookies stored on a user's hard drive cannot read its data, access personal information or read cookies created by other providers.

What types of cookies are there?

According to the entity managing them:

  • First-party cookies: generated by the page you are visiting.
  • Third-party cookies: generated by external services or providers such as Facebook, Twitter, Google, etc.

According to how long they remain active:

  • Session cookies: designed to collect and store data while the user accesses a website.
  • Persistent cookies: data remain stored on the device and can be accessed and processed for a period defined by the party responsible for the cookie.

According to their purpose:

  • Technical cookies: the most basic type. Among other things, they identify whether a human or an automated application is browsing, and whether a user is anonymous or registered, which are basic tasks for the operation of any dynamic website.
  • Personalisation cookies: allow users to access a service with general characteristics predefined on their device or defined by the user, such as language, browser type, selected content layout, device geolocation and the regional settings from which the service is accessed.
  • Analytics cookies: collect information about the type of browsing, the most frequently used sections, products viewed, usage times, language, etc.
  • Advertising cookies: display advertising based on browsing, country of origin, language, etc.
  • Behavioural advertising cookies: enable effective management of advertising spaces included on the website or application providing the service. They store information about users' behaviour through observation, allowing a specific profile to be developed subsequently so that advertising can be displayed accordingly.
