Cookie Policy
What are cookies?
In English, the term "cookie" means biscuit, but in the context of web browsing, a "cookie" is something entirely different. When you access our Website, a small piece of text called a "cookie" is stored in your device's browser. This text contains various information about your browsing, habits, preferences, content customizations, etc.
Other technologies function similarly and are also used to collect data about your browsing activity. We will refer to all these technologies collectively as "cookies."
The specific uses we make of these technologies are described in this document.

What types of cookies are used on this website?
Each website uses its own cookies. On our website, we use the following:
ACCORDING TO THE ENTITY THAT MANAGES THEM
First-party cookies:
These are cookies sent to the user's terminal equipment from a computer or domain managed by the website publisher and from which the service requested by the user is provided.
Third-party cookies:
These are cookies sent to the user's terminal equipment from a computer or domain that is not managed by the publisher, but by another entity that processes the data obtained through the cookies.
In the event that cookies are served from a computer or domain managed by the publisher itself, but the information collected through them is managed by a third party, they cannot be considered as first-party cookies if the third party uses them for its own purposes (for example, improving the services it provides or providing advertising services to other entities).
ACCORDING TO THEIR PURPOSE
Technical Cookies:
These are necessary for browsing and the proper functioning of our Website, such as controlling traffic and data communication, identifying the session, accessing restricted areas, processing registration or participation requests for events, counting visits for billing purposes for software licenses used to power the Website service, using security features during browsing, storing content for video or audio playback, and enabling dynamic content (for example, text or image loading animations).
Analytical Cookies:
These allow us to quantify the number of users and thus perform statistical measurement and analysis of how users use the Website.
Preference or Personalization Cookies:
These cookies allow us to remember information so that the User can access the service with certain characteristics that may differentiate their experience from that of other users, such as 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 used to access the service or the region from which the User accesses the service, etc.
ACCORDING TO THE LENGTH OF TIME THEY REMAIN ACTIVE
Session Cookies:
These cookies are designed to collect and store data while the User accesses a website.
They are typically used to store information that is only needed to provide the service requested by the User on a single occasion (for example, a list of purchased products) and disappear when the session ends.
Persistent cookies:
These are cookies where the data remains stored on the user's device and can be accessed and processed for a period defined by the cookie provider, ranging from a few minutes to several years. In this regard, it is important to specifically assess whether the use of persistent cookies is necessary, as privacy risks could be reduced by using session cookies. In any case, when persistent cookies are installed, it is recommended to minimize their lifespan, taking into account their purpose. To this end, Opinion 4/2012 of the Article 29 Working Party indicated that for a cookie to be exempt from the requirement of informed consent, its expiration must be related to its purpose. Therefore, session cookies are much more likely to be considered exempt than persistent cookies.
