Cookies Policy
What are cookies?

In the following links you will find instructions on how to enable or disable cookies in the most common browsers.
What types of cookies are used on this website?
Each website uses its own cookies. We use the following on our website:
ACCORDING TO THE ENTITY THAT MANAGES IT
Own cookies:
They 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:
Cookies 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.
In the event that the cookies are served from a computer or domain managed by the editor itself, but the information collected through these is managed by a third party, they cannot be considered as own cookies if the third party uses them for its own purposes (for example, the improvement of the services it provides or the provision of advertising services in favor of other entities).
BY PURPOSE
Technical cookies:
They are those necessary for navigation and the proper functioning of our Web Site, such as, for example, controlling traffic and data communication, identifying the session, accessing restricted access parts, remembering the elements that make up an order, carrying out the purchase process of an order, managing payment, controlling fraud linked to the security of the service, make the request for registration or participation in an event, count visits for the purpose of billing software licenses with which the Web Site service works, use security features while browsing, store content for broadcasting video or sound, enable dynamic content (for example, animation of loading text or image) or share content through social networks.
Analytics cookies:
They allow us to quantify the number of users and thus perform the measurement and statistical analysis of the use made by users of the Web Site. For this purpose, your browsing on our Web Site is analyzed in order to improve the products or services we offer you.
Preference or personalization cookies:
They are those that allow remembering information for the User to access the service with certain characteristics that may differentiate his experience from that of other users, such as, for example, the language, the number of results to be displayed when the User performs a search, the appearance or content of the service depending on the type of browser through which the User accesses the service or the region from which he accesses the service, etc.
ACCORDING TO THE LENGTH OF TIME THEY REMAIN ACTIVE
Session cookies:
They are those designed to collect and store data while the user accesses a web page.
They are usually used to store information that only needs to be kept for the provision of the service requested by the User on a single occasion (for example, a list of products purchased) and disappear at the end of the session.
Persistent cookies:
They are those in which the data are still stored in the terminal and can be accessed and processed for a period defined by the cookie manager, which can range from a few minutes to several years. In this regard, it should be specifically assessed whether the use of persistent cookies is necessary, since privacy risks could be reduced by using session cookies. In any case, when persistent cookies are installed, it is recommended to reduce their temporary duration to the minimum necessary according to the purpose of their use. To this effect, WG29 Opinion 4/2012 indicated that for a cookie to be exempt from the duty of informed consent, its expiration must be related to its purpose. Because of this, session cookies are much more likely to be considered excepted than persistent cookies.
