What are cookies?
A “cookie” is a small file that is stored on the user’s computer, tablet, smartphone or any other device with information about browsing activity. The set of “cookies” helps us improve the quality of our website and allows us to know which pages our users find useful and which ones they do not.
This website uses cookies and/or similar technologies that store and retrieve information when you browse. In general, these technologies may be used for very different purposes, such as recognising you as a user, obtaining information about your browsing habits, or personalising the way in which content is displayed.
Types of cookies
The information provided below will help you understand the different types of cookies:
- First-party cookies: These are cookies that are sent to your device from our own equipment or domains and from which we provide the service you request.
- Third-party cookies: These are cookies that are sent to your device from equipment or a domain that is not managed by us, but by another collaborating entity. For example, those used by social media platforms or by external content such as Google Maps.
- Session cookies: These are temporary cookies that remain in your browser’s cookie file until you leave the website, so none of them are stored on your computer’s hard drive. The information obtained through these cookies is used to analyse web traffic patterns. In the long term, this allows us to provide a better experience, improve content and make the website easier to use.
- Persistent cookies: These are stored on the hard drive and our website reads them every time you make a new visit. A persistent cookie has a specific expiry date. The cookie will stop working after that date. We generally use these cookies to facilitate registration services.
- Technical cookies: These are cookies that are necessary for browsing and for the proper functioning of our website. They allow, for example, traffic control and data communication, access to restricted areas, the use of security elements, the storage of content in order to broadcast videos, or the sharing of content through social media.
- Personalisation cookies: These allow you to access the service with predefined characteristics based on a series of criteria, such as language, the type of browser through which the service is accessed, the regional settings from where the service is accessed, etc.
- Analytics cookies: These are cookies that, processed by us or by third parties, allow us to quantify the number of users and therefore carry out statistical measurement and analysis of how users use the service offered. To do this, your browsing activity on our website is analysed in order to improve the range of products or services we offer you.
- Advertising cookies: These allow the most efficient possible management of the advertising spaces that may be included on our website, showing advertising related to your browsing profile.
- Behavioural advertising cookies: These cookies store information about users’ behaviour obtained through continuous observation. Thanks to them, we can learn about your internet browsing habits and show you advertising related to your browsing profile.

How can I disable or delete these cookies?
You may allow or block cookies, as well as delete your browsing data, including cookies, from the browser you use. Please consult the options and instructions provided by your browser for this purpose. Please note that, if you accept third-party cookies, you must delete them from your browser options.
