Cookies Policy

In compliance with the current regulations on Data Protection, we inform you that this Web Site uses proprietary and third-party cookies.

A cookie is a file that downloads onto the user’s device when they go onto the Web Site, in order to store and retrieve information about navigation using the device.

Cookie types:

• Depending on the body managing them:

Proprietary cookies: are those sent to the user’s terminal from a computer or a domain managed by the proprietary publisher and from which the service requested by the user is provided.

Third-party cookies: are those sent to the User’s terminal from a computer or a domain that is not managed by the publisher, but instead by a different body that processes the data obtained from the cookies. Types of third-party cookies:

Load-balancing cookies: these are used to collect data that help to regulate, divide up and manage congestion on the servers. They are considered to be necessary for communication over the internet. They solely identify a server and, therefore, do not contain personal data.

Cookies to customise the user interface: amongst others, these are used to indicate the preferred language or the content format. They do not require any personal identifier and, therefore, they do not constitute personal information.

• Depending on the time the cookie remains active on the equipment:

Session cookies: are temporary cookies that stay in the cookies file on your browser until you leave the web site, which means that none remain recorded on the user's hard drive. The information obtained using these cookies is used to analyse web site traffic patterns. In the end, this enables us to provide a better experience to improve content and facilitate its use.

Permanent cookies: these are stored on the hard drive and our web site reads them every time the user revisits. A permanent cookie may be accessed and processed during a period of time defined by the cookie controller. After that date it shall stop working.

• Depending on their purpose:

Technical cookies: Enable the user to browse via a web site, platform or application and to use the various options and services on them.

Personalisation cookies: Allow the user to access the service with some general features which are defined based on a series of criteria in the User’s computer, such as, for example, language, the type of browser used to access the service, and the regional settings from where the service is accessed, etc.

Analysis cookies: Allow their controller to monitor and analyse users’ behaviour on the web sites they are linked to. The information collected using this type of cookie is used to measure activity on web sites, applications or platforms and to draw up browsing profiles for the users of those web sites, applications and platforms in order to make improvements in line with the analysis of the data for the use the users make of the service.

Advertising cookies

Enable management, as effectively as possible, of advertising spaces that, as appropriate, the publisher may have included on a web site, application or platform from which it provides the service requested based on criteria such as the content published or the frequency with which advertisements are shown.

Targeting cookies

Enable management, as effectively as possible, of advertising spaces that, as appropriate, the publisher may have included on a web site, application or platform from which it provides the service requested.
