COOKIES POLICY
LEGAL SCOPE
The second paragraph of Article 22 of Law 34/2002 of July 11, 2002, on information society services and electronic commerce (hereinafter, LSSI), in connection with Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of April 27, 2016, General Data Protection (hereinafter, RGPD) and Organic Law 3/2018 of December 5, 2018, on Data Protection and guarantee of digital rights (hereinafter, LOPDGDD) establishes that.
- Service providers may use data storage and retrieval devices on recipients' terminal equipment, provided that the recipients have given their consent after having been provided with clear and complete information on their use, in particular on the purposes of the data processing, in accordance with the provisions of the Personal Data Protection regulations.
- Where technically possible and effective, the recipient's consent to accept data processing may be provided through the use of appropriate browser settings or other applications.
- The foregoing shall not prevent the possible storage or access of a technical nature for the sole purpose of carrying out the transmission of a communication over an electronic communications network or, to the extent strictly necessary, for the provision of an information society service expressly requested by the recipient.
The GDPR, in its recital 30, mentions these technologies and their impact on data protection, stating that Natural persons may be associated with online identifiers provided by their devices, applications, tools and protocols, such as internet protocol addresses, session identifiers in the form of cookies or other identifiers, such as radio frequency identification tags. This can leave traces that, in particular, when combined with unique identifiers and other data received by the servers, can be used to profile and identify individuals.
This cookie policy has been revised in accordance with the new rules on the use of cookies that the Spanish Data Protection Agency (AEPD) has published on July 28, 2020, modifying the guidance on the use of cookies to adapt it to the guidelines on consent as amended in May 2020 by the European Data Protection Committee (ECDC) (Guidelines 05/2020) on consent. Specifically, it has taken technical measures to ensure that the "continue browsing" option is not set as an option to obtain consent, and that no "cookie walls" are in place.
In compliance with the established regulations, we indicate below the information related to the "cookies" used.

WHAT IS A COOKIE
Cookies are small files that some platforms, such as websites, may install on your computer, smartphone, tablet, connected TV, etc., when you access them. Their functions can be very varied: store your browsing preferences, collect statistical information, enable certain technical functionalities, store and retrieve information about the browsing habits or preferences of a user or their equipment to the point, sometimes, depending on the information they contain and the way you use your equipment, of being able to recognize you. A cookie is stored on a computer to personalize and facilitate the user's navigation as much as possible. Cookies play a very important role in improving the experience of using the web.
In other words, a cookie is a piece of information sent by a website and stored in the user's browser, so that the website can consult the user's previous activity. A cookie does not identify only one person, but can incorporate a combination of computer-browser-user.
WHAT THE WEBSITE USES COOKIES FOR
Cookies are used to differentiate users and to act differently depending on the user. One use of cookies is to identify yourself to a website. Users normally identify themselves by entering their credentials on a validation page; cookies allow the server to know that the user is already validated or browsing the website, and therefore may allow the user to access services or perform operations that are restricted to non-identified users.
Why are they important?
- From a technical point of view, they allow websites to function more agile and adapted to user preferences, such as storing the language, the country's currency or detecting the access device.
- They establish levels of protection and security that prevent or hinder cyber-attacks against the website or its users.
- They allow the media managers to know statistical data collected in the Cookies to improve the quality and experience of their services.
- They are used to optimize the advertising we show to users, offering the advertising that most closely matches their interests.
TYPES OF COOKIES
Depending on who is the entity that manages the equipment or domain from which the cookies are sent and treats the data obtained, we can distinguish:
Own cookies: 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: 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 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).
Depending on the purpose for which the data obtained through cookies are processed, the website may use:
Technical cookies: are those that allow the user to navigate through a website, platform or application and the use of the different options or services that exist in it, including those that the editor uses to allow the management and operation of the website and enable its functions and services.
Preference or personalization cookies: are those that allow remembering information for the user to access the service with certain characteristics that may differentiate the user's experience from that of other users, such as, for example, the language, the number of results to display 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 the user accesses the service, etc.
Analysis or measurement cookies: these cookies allow the party responsible for them to monitor and analyze the behavior of the users of the websites to which they are linked, including the quantification of the impact of advertisements.

Depending on the expiration date, the Cookies used may have the following types of expiration dates:
Session cookies: 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.
