Cookies Policy

In compliance with the Spanish Law 34/2002, of 11 July, on Information Society Services and Electronic Commerce, we hereby inform you that this website, like most websites on the internet, uses cookies to improve and optimise user experience. Below you will find detailed information on what cookies are, what types this website uses, how to change your cookie settings and what happens if you disable cookies.

What are cookies?

Cookies are files that are downloaded to your computer, smartphone or other device when you access a website. They allow the website to store and receive information about the browsing habits of the user or their equipment and, depending on the information obtained and how the equipment is used, they can be used to recognise the user.

Types of cookies according to the entity that manages them:

First-party cookies: Those that are sent to the your equipment from a computer or domain managed by the owner of this website and from which the service requested is provided.

Third-party cookies: Those that are sent to your equipment whilst you browse our website from a computer or domain that is managed by a third party. Should the third party process the data obtained for their own purposes, we will inform you of these.

Types of cookies according to how long they remain active:

• Session cookies: • Persistent cookies: This is data that is stored on your terminal and that can be accessed and processed during the period of time specified by the cookie, which could be for years. We reduce their duration to the extent possible whenever we can, according to their purpose.

Types of cookies according to purpose:

• Functional and technical cookies: These cookies are exempted from compliance with the Information Society Services and Electronic Commerce Act (LSSI) so long as their only purpose is to provide the service requested by the user. They are strictly necessary for the management and operation of the website and for the provision of the services expressly requested by the user. If these cookies are disabled, the user will be unable to receive our content and services correctly. Examples:

To monitor traffic and data communication, identify the session, provide access to restricted areas within the website, save items added to the shopping basket, complete purchases, process payments, prevent fraud, facilitate the signing up to and participation in events, count the number of visits for software that is priced according to this data, use security elements while browsing, store data of videos or audio, enable dynamic content (e.g., loading animation of a text or image), share content via social media, and to manage advertising spaces based on criteria such as edited content, without collecting user information for any other purpose (e.g., to personalise content).

• Preference or personalisation cookies: • User-input cookies: These cookies are exempted from compliance with the LSSI. They keep track of the user’s inputs when completing online forms over several pages, or when adding items to a shopping basket, for example, to keep track of the items the user has selected.
• Authentication or user identification cookies (session cookies): These cookies are exempted from compliance with the LSSI.
• Security cookies: These cookies are exempted from compliance with the LSSI. They detect failed or repeated attempts to log in to the website.
• Multimedia player cookies, load-balancing cookies and user interface customisation cookies: These cookies are exempted from compliance with the LSSI.
• Plugin or social cookies: Exempted from compliance with the LSSI only for the user in session. They manage interaction with social media from within the website. Used by “YouTube”, “Facebook”, “Google” and “Twitter”, among others.
• Analytical and performance cookies: For these we must obtain your informed consent, although they are unlikely to pose a risk to your privacy if they are first-party and aggregate data for statistical analysis.

These cookies are processed either by us or by third parties to quantify the number of users, to measure and analyse behaviour on the website or to count the number of ad impressions or clicks in order to measure performance and improve the products and services we offer.

• Advertising cookies: These cookies are processed either by us or by third parties and make it possible to manage the content shown in the advertising spaces on the website, adjusting the content of the advertisement to the content of the service requested, to the use that is being made of the website or to the information we are able to access about your internet browsing habits.

Other forms of storage similar to cookies

• HTML5 localStorage and sessionStorage: Space that the website can use on the user’s equipment. This can normally be deleted by deleting browsing history.
• Local Shared Objects (Flash cookies): These store more information than a standard cookie and are independent of the browser that is used and more complicated to locate, view and delete. They can even regenerate standard cookies. Silverlight Isolated Storage is one example. To delete, the user must go to their Microsoft folder. (Example: a Vimeo video).
• Web beacons or bugs: These are small images that are hidden within the website, invisible to the user. They are loaded when the user visits the website but are hosted on a different server. From there, they register the visit and record the information provided by the browser at the time of access: IP address, operating system, browser, the time of access and the number of times the image is accessed.
