DEFINITION OF A COOKIE
A ‘cookie’ is a small fragment of text that websites send to the browser and that is stored in the user’s terminal (computer or mobile device). The purpose of these files is to store data that can be updated and retrieved by the entity responsible for their installation. Thus, each time the user revisits the same website, the browser retrieves the file and sends it to the website’s server. Cookies have several functions, including collecting information about the user’s preferences and remembering it, and generally facilitating the use of the website for the user by making the site more useful by personalising its content.
Cookies can be classified on the basis of different parameters:
- Ownership: own cookies and third-party cookies: depending on the entity that manages the domain from which the cookies are sent and the data obtained are processed.
- Duration: session cookies and persistent cookies: according to the length of time they remain stored in the user’s terminal.
- Purpose: technical cookies, personalisation cookies, analysis cookies, advertising cookies, behavioural advertising cookies, according to the purpose for which the data obtained is processed.
- Technical cookies: these are those that allow the user to browse through the website or application and use the different options or services that exist on it. For example, controlling traffic and data communication, identifying the session or accessing restricted access web parts.
- Personalisation cookies: these are cookies that allow the user to access the service with some general characteristics predefined in their terminal or defined by the user themselves. For example, the language, the type of browser used to access the service or the selected content design.
- Analysis cookies: these are cookies that are either processed by us or by third parties and allow us to quantify the number of users and thus carry out a statistical analysis of the use made by users of the service offered. To do this, your browsing on our website is analysed in order to improve the range of products or services that we offer.
- Advertising cookies: are those that allow the management, in the most effective way possible, of the advertising spaces that, where appropriate, the editor has included on a website, application or platform from which the requested service is provided based on criteria such as the edited content or the frequency at which the advertisements are shown.
- Behavioural advertising cookies: these are cookies that enable the management, in the most effective way possible, of the advertising spaces that, where appropriate, the publisher has included on a website, application or platform from which the requested service is provided. These cookies store information on user behaviour obtained through continuous observation of their browsing habits, which allows a specific profile to be developed to display advertising based on the same.
