What are cookies?
In English, the term "cookie" means a type of sweet biscuit, but in the realm of web browsing, a "cookie" is something entirely different. When you access our Website, a small amount of text is stored in your device's browser, which is called a "cookie." This text contains varied information about your navigation, habits, preferences, content customizations, etc.
There are other technologies that work 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 ones listed below:
BY ENTITY MANAGING THEM
First-party cookies:
These are sent to the User's terminal equipment from a computer or domain managed by the publisher itself and from which the service requested by the User is provided.
Third-party cookies:
These are 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 cookies.
In the event that cookies are served from a computer or domain managed by the publisher itself, but the information collected through these 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 in favor of other entities).
BY 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 an event, counting visits for the billing of software licenses with which the Website service operates, using security elements during browsing, storing content for video or sound dissemination, enabling dynamic content (for example, loading animation of text or images), or sharing content through social networks.
Analysis cookies:
These allow us to quantify the number of users and thus perform the measurement and statistical analysis of the use that users make of the Website.
Preference or personalization cookies:
These allow us to remember information so that the User accesses the service with certain characteristics that can 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 through which the User accesses the service, or the region from which the service is accessed, etc.
BY DURATION OF TIME THEY REMAIN ACTIVATED
Session cookies:
These are designed to collect and store data while the User accesses a web page.
They are usually employed to store information that is only of interest to keep for the provision of the service requested by the User on a single occasion (for example, a list of purchased products) and disappear at the end of the session.
Persistent cookies:
These are those in which the data remains stored in the terminal and can be accessed and processed for a period defined by the cookie manager, which can range from a few minutes to several years. In this regard, it should be specifically evaluated whether the use of persistent cookies is necessary since the risks to privacy could be reduced by using session cookies. In any case, when persistent cookies are installed, it is recommended to minimize their duration to what is strictly necessary for their use. For these purposes, Opinion 4/2012 of the WP29 indicated that for a cookie to be exempt from the informed consent requirement, its expiration must be related to its purpose. Therefore, session cookies are much more likely to be considered exempt than persistent cookies.
