COOKIES AND LOCAL STORAGE POLICY

Browsing this website with cookies and local storage mechanisms activated implies necessary acceptance of their use in accordance with this policy. To avoid cookies, it is possible to disable them in the web browser.

Cookies and local storage are part of the technology necessary for the operation of a website and are not inherently harmful, but it is important that you know the implications for your privacy.

This policy is part of our privacy policy and includes the following:

  • What are cookies?
  • What are cookies used for?
  • What is local storage?
  • What are third-party cookies?
  • How to prevent the use of cookies and how to delete cookies?

WHAT ARE COOKIES?

“Cookies” are small temporary files that are created on the user’s device (computer, phone, tablet, etc.) when you visit a website, and that allow it to store information, for example, to save your preferences for use or to recognise you on subsequent visits.

When a website creates a cookie on the user’s device, the following is stored:

  • The address/domain of the website that created the cookie;
  • The duration of the cookie, which can range from a few minutes to several years; and
  • The contents of the cookie.

The user may at any time configure their web browser to prevent (block) the use of cookies by certain websites, as well as delete previously stored cookies.

WHAT ARE COOKIES USED FOR?

  • Essential technical cookies. They are used to manage the navigation flow within the website or to keep the user connected to it. When disabling them, it is possible that some section of the website will not work correctly.
  • Customization cookies. These cookies are necessary for remembering certain user preferences.
  • Analytic cookies. These cookies help us and third parties to record where visits are originated and how users interact with the website, in order to create analytics that help us to enhance the website structure and contents.
  • Advertising cookies. These cookies are used to manage the advertisements displayed on the website, their content and frequency.
  • Behavioral advertising cookies. These cookies help to track the user’s browsing behaviour in order to create a profile to determine relevant advertisements for him/her.
  • Social sharing cookies. These cookies are necessary for identifying the user while using social networks and thus allowing him/her to share content.

WHAT IS LOCAL STORAGE?

Local storage is a file created by a website in your device. Cookies are a form of local storage, but there are others, for example:

  • Browser local storage. Some websites use local storages called “sessionStorage” and “localStorage” to store information. “SessionStorage” is automatically deleted when the browser is closed. However, to delete the “localStorage” the user must delete his/her browsing history.
  • Flash local storage (“Flash Local Shared Objects”). Flash is a browser add-on that allows you to incorporate interactive and multimedia elements in a website. Flash also allows the visited website to store files on the user’s device.
  • Silverlight local storage (“Isolated Objects”). Silverlight is a browser plug-in used to add interactive and multimedia content to websites. Silverlight also allows the visited website to store files on the user’s device.
  • The web beacon is a tracking technique that consists of inserting an image hosted on an Internet server on the web or in an email so that, when the browser or email program connects to said server to download and view the image, the access is logged. Sometimes these images are very small or transparent in such a way that the user is not aware of their existence.

WHAT ARE THIRD-PARTY COOKIES?

Many websites incorporate functions or features provided by third parties, such as:

  • Analytics of website access and usage.
  • Interactive maps.
  • Videos and other multimedia elements.
  • Social-sharing buttons.

The provider of a function or feature may make use of cookies and other local storage technologies based on its own criteria and purposes. Some providers use cookies and other tracking technologies to collect information about the user’s browsing habits in order to show them advertising tailored to his/her interests.

Browsing this website with cookies and local storage activated necessarily implies acceptance of the privacy policies established by the providers of the following functions or features:
