Cookie Policy

The main obligations regarding cookies are set out below, such as: informing the website user of the type of cookies used by the website, their purpose, user consent, ways of requesting consent, legal notice, cookies policy, etc.

1. Concept of Cookies

Cookies are files that are stored on the user's computer when browsing the Internet and which, in particular, contain a number that enables the user's computer to be univocally identified, even if the user's location or IP address changes.

Cookies are installed while browsing the Internet, either by the websites visited by the user or by third parties with which the website is related, and allow the latter to know their activity on the same site or on others with which it is related, for example: the place from which you access, the connection time, the device from which you access (fixed or mobile), the operating system and browser used, the most visited pages, the number of clicks made and data regarding the user's behaviour on the Internet.

The website is accessible without the need for cookies to be activated, although deactivating them may prevent the website from functioning correctly.

2. Types of Cookies

2.1. Existing types of Cookies

Cookies can be classified according to the entity that manages them, according to the time they remain activated on the terminal equipment and according to their purpose.

The main obligation for companies or service providers in the information society or internet, through media such as websites, platforms or computer applications is established in art. 22.2 of the LSSI, which states:

"Service providers may use data storage and retrieval devices on terminal equipment of recipients, provided that the recipients have given their consent after having been provided with clear and comprehensive information on their use, in particular on the purposes of the data processing (...)".

Likewise, cookies used for any of the following purposes are exempt from compliance with the obligations established in article 22.2 of the LSSI:

- Allow only communication between the user's equipment and the network.
- Strictly to provide a service expressly requested by the user.

In this sense, the cookies that would be exempt from the obligations set out in art. 22.2 are those that have the following purposes:
- User input cookies.
- User authentication or identification cookies (session cookies only).
- User security cookies (incorrect and repeated connection attempts).
- Media player session cookies.
- Session cookies for load balancing.
- User interface customisation cookies.
- Add-on cookies to exchange social content.

These cookies are excluded from the scope of application of article 22.2 of the LSSI, and therefore, it would not be necessary to inform or obtain consent for their use. On the other hand, it would be necessary to inform and obtain consent for the installation and use of any other type of cookies, whether first-party or third-party, session or persistent, being subject to the scope of application of article 22.2 of the LSSI, on which the guidelines in this document will be useful.
Cookies, depending on the entity that manages them, may be:
- Own cookies: These are those that 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: These are those that are sent to the user's terminal equipment from a computer or domain that is not managed by the editor, but by another entity that processes the data obtained through the cookies.

Cookies can be distinguished according to the length of time they remain activated on the terminal equipment:
- Session cookies: These are a type of cookie designed to collect and store data while the user accesses a web page.
- Persistent cookies: These are a type of cookie in which the data remains stored in the terminal and can be accessed and processed for a period defined by the party responsible for the cookie, which can range from a few minutes to several years.

Cookies, depending on their purpose, can be:
- Technical Cookies: These are those that allow the user to browse through a website, platform or application and use the different options or services that exist on it such as, for example, controlling traffic and data communication, identifying the session, accessing parts of restricted access, remembering the elements that make up an order, carrying out the purchase process of an order, making the application for registration or participation in an event, using security elements during browsing, storing content for the broadcasting of videos or sound or sharing content through social networks.

- Personalisation cookies: These are cookies that allow the user to access the service with some predefined general characteristics depending on a series of criteria in the user's terminal, such as the language, the type of browser used to access the service, the regional configuration from which the service is accessed, etc.

- Analysis cookies: These cookies allow the party responsible for them to monitor and analyse the behaviour of the users of the websites to which they are linked. The information collected through this type of cookies is used to measure the activity of the websites, application or platform and for the elaboration of browsing profiles of the users of these sites, applications and platforms, in order to introduce improvements based on the analysis of the usage data of the users of the service.

- Advertising Cookies: These are those that allow the management, in the most effective way possible, of the advertising spaces that, where appropriate, the editor has included on a website, application or platform from which the requested service is provided based on criteria such as the edited content or the frequency at which the advertisements are shown.

- Behavioural advertising cookies: These are cookies that allow the management, in the most effective way possible, of the advertising spaces that, where appropriate, the publisher has included on a website, application or platform from which the requested service is provided. These cookies store information on the behaviour of users obtained through continuous observation of their browsing habits, which allows a specific profile to be developed to display advertising based on the same.

3. Information on legal obligations in the use of Cookies

The legal obligations imposed by the regulations are twofold: the duty to inform and the obligation to obtain consent.
First of all, the first thing to do is to identify the cookies that are being installed or used, analysing whether they are own or third-party cookies, session or permanent cookies, and specifying their function in order to decide whether or not they fall within the scope of application of article 22.2.
The second paragraph of Article 22 of the LSSI establishes that users must be provided with clear and complete information on the use of data storage and retrieval devices and, in particular, on the purposes of data processing, in accordance with the provisions of Organic Law 3/2018, of 5 December, on the Protection of Personal Data and Guarantee of Digital Rights.
Therefore, the information on cookies provided at the time of requesting consent must be sufficiently complete to allow users to understand the purpose for which they were installed and the uses to which they will be put.
In the event that a user consents to the use of cookies, information on how to revoke consent and delete cookies shall be made available to the user in an accessible and permanent manner.
The mandatory information may be provided by multiple means. As will be discussed below, these means will generally not only provide the necessary information, but may also seek the user's consent to the installation of the devices.

Among the most common methods are:
- The provision of information through a header bar or in the footer, in a sufficiently visible way.
- When applying for a service, or before downloading a service or application, this information may be provided in conjunction with the privacy policy, or in the terms and conditions of use of the service.

Likewise, information must be provided on how to deactivate or delete the aforementioned cookies through the functionalities provided by the editor, as well as how to revoke the consent already given.

4. Authorisation for the use of cookies
In accordance with the cookie notice that appears on the website page, the user or visitor of the website accepts that, by browsing the website, they expressly consent to the use of cookies as described below, except to the extent that they have modified their browser settings to reject the use of cookies.
