COOKIES POLICY
What are cookies?
A cookie is a file or device which is downloaded to your terminal device for the purpose of storing data which can be updated and retrieved by the server that placed it. In other words, it is a file that is downloaded to your computer when you access certain websites. For example, cookies allow a website to store and retrieve information about your or your computer’s browsing habits and, depending on the information they contain and the way in which you use your computer, they can be used to recognise you.
Their main functions are:
- User monitoring: when a user enters their username and password, a cookie is stored so that they do not have to enter them for every page on the server. However, a cookie does not identify a person but rather a combination of computer-browser-user.
- Gathering information about the user’s browsing habits and any attempted spyware from advertising agencies and others. This can lead to privacy issues and is one of the reasons why cookies have their detractors.
There are different types of cookies depending primarily on the purpose for which they are used. They include the following:
Analytics cookies: these cookies are used to analyse the behaviour and actions of the users of the website and for browsing profiling in order to make technical improvements to its operation and services.
Advertising cookies: they allow efficient management of advertising spaces based on a series of criteria; for example, checking whether or not the user has already accessed a news item in order to update it with a new one.
Behavioural advertising cookies: these cookies store information about users’ behaviour by looking at their browsing habits. This makes it possible to set up user profiles based on their behaviour and use them to personalise the advertising shown.
