In English, the term "cookie" means a biscuit, but in the context of web browsing, a "cookie" is something completely different.

When you access our website, a small amount 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.

There are other technologies that 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.

Cookies are an essential part of how our website functions. The main purpose of our cookies is to improve your browsing experience. For example, to remember your preferences (language, country, etc.) during browsing and in future visits. The information collected in cookies also allows us to improve the website, adapt it to your interests as a user, speed up your searches, etc.

In certain cases, if we have obtained your prior informed consent, we may use cookies for other purposes, such as obtaining information that allows us to show you advertising based on the analysis of your browsing habits.

What are cookies NOT used for on this website?
The cookies we use do not store sensitive personal identification information such as your name, address, password, etc.

Who uses the information stored in the cookies?
The information stored in the cookies on our website is used exclusively by us, except for those identified below as 'third-party cookies,' which are used and managed by external entities that provide us with services to enhance the user experience. For example, statistics about the number of visits, the most liked content, etc., are usually managed by GOOGLE ANALYTICS.

Third-party cookies are also often used to ensure payment operations made through the website.

How can I avoid the use of cookies on this website?
If you prefer to avoid the use of cookies, you can DECLINE their use or CONFIGURE the ones you want to avoid and the ones you allow to use (in this document, we provide detailed information about each type of cookie, its purpose, recipient, duration, etc.).

However, it is common to find cookie settings in the 'Preferences,' 'Tools,' 'Options' menu and then under 'Privacy and Security' or 'clear browsing data,' etc.

For more details on cookie configuration in each browser, you can consult the 'Help' menu of your browser.

What types of cookies are used on this website?
Each website uses its own cookies. On our website, we use the following:

BASED ON THE ENTITY THAT MANAGES THEM

• First-party cookies:
  These are sent to the user's terminal device from a device or domain managed by the website owner and from which the service requested by the user is provided.
• Third-party cookies:
  These are sent to the user's terminal device from a device or domain not managed by the website owner but by another entity that processes the data obtained through the cookies.
  
  If cookies are served from a device or domain managed by the website owner but the information collected through them is managed by a third party, they cannot be considered first-party cookies if the third party uses them for their own purposes (for example, to improve the services they provide or for advertising purposes for other entities).

BASED ON THEIR PURPOSE

• Technical cookies:
  These are necessary for browsing and the proper functioning of our website, such as controlling data traffic and communication, identifying the session, accessing restricted areas, remembering items in an order, completing the purchase process, managing payments, controlling fraud related to service security, registering for an event, counting visits for software licensing purposes, using security elements during browsing, storing content for video or sound streaming, enabling dynamic content (e.g., loading animations), or sharing content on social networks.
• Analysis cookies:
  These allow the quantification of users to perform measurement and statistical analysis of how users use the offered service. For this, their navigation on our website is analyzed to improve the products or services we offer.
• Preference or personalization cookies:
  These allow remembering information so that the user can access the service with certain features that differentiate their experience from that of other users, such as language, the number of results displayed in a search, the appearance or content of the service based on the type of browser used to access the service, or the region from which the service is accessed, etc.
• Behavioral advertising cookies:
  These, processed by us or third parties, allow us to analyze your browsing habits on the internet to show you advertising related to your browsing profile.

BASED ON THE TIME THEY REMAIN ACTIVE

• Session cookies:
  These are 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 retained to provide the service requested by the user on a single occasion (e.g., a list of purchased products) and disappear at the end of the session.
• Persistent cookies:
  These are those in which data remain stored on the terminal and can be accessed and processed for a defined period by the cookie manager, which can range from a few minutes to several years. In this regard, the use of persistent cookies should be specifically evaluated, as privacy risks could be reduced by using session cookies. In any case, when persistent cookies are installed, their duration should be minimized to the necessary minimum based on their use. For this purpose, Working Party 29's Opinion 4/2012 stated that for a cookie to be exempt from the requirement for informed consent, its expiration must be related to its purpose. As a result, session cookies are more likely to be exempt than persistent cookies.
