What are cookies?
A cookie is a file that is downloaded to your computer when you access certain web pages. Cookies allow a website, among other things, to store and retrieve information about the browsing habits of a user or their equipment and, depending on the information they contain and the way they use their equipment, they can be used to recognise the user.
What are cookies used for and what are they?
There are various types of cookies that exist and can be used for a number of different purposes. The main ones are:
- Technical cookies: These are those that allow the user to navigate through the website or application and use the different options or services that exist therein. For example, controlling traffic and data communication, identifying the session, accessing restricted access web parts, remembering the elements that make up an order, making the request for registration or participation in an event, using security elements during navigation and storing content for the dissemination of videos or sound.
Also within this category, due to their technical nature, those cookies that allow the management, in the most efficient way possible, of the advertising spaces that, as another element of design or “layout” of the service offered to the user, the editor has included in a web page, application or platform based on criteria such as the edited content, without collecting information from users for different purposes, such as personalizing this advertising content or other content. - Preference or personalization cookies: These are those that allow the user to access the service with some general characteristics predefined in their terminal or that the user themselves defines. For example, the language, the type of browser through which you access the service, the design of selected content, geolocation of the terminal and the regional configuration from where the service is accessed.
- Analysis cookies: These are cookies that, either processed by us or by third parties, allow us to quantify the number of users and thus carry out the measurement and statistical analysis of the use made by users of the service. To do this, the navigation and behavior of a user on the website is analyzed in order to introduce improvements based on the analysis of the data on the use made by users of the service.
- Behavioral advertising cookies: These are cookies that store information on the behavior of users obtained through the continued observation of their browsing habits, which allows a specific profile to be developed to display advertising based on it.
Depending on their durability, they can be:
- Session cookies: Their validity expires when you close the browser.
- Persistent cookies: Their validity may vary, since the data is still stored in the terminal and can be accessed and processed during a period defined by the person responsible for the cookie. These disappear once they have fulfilled the objective that motivated their installation or when the user proceeds to manually delete them.
In addition, these cookies may be own or third party cookies. “Own” cookies are used only by the owner of this website. That is, they are sent to the user’s terminal equipment from a computer or domain managed by the editor itself and from which the service requested by the user is provided. “Third-party” cookies, on the other hand, are those that are sent to the user’s terminal equipment from a computer or domain that is not managed by the publisher, but by another entity that processes the data obtained through the cookies. An example of this are the statistical services of Google Analytics and Comscore.
