When you visit 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 personalisation, etc.
There are other technologies that work in a similar way and are also used to collect data about your browsing activity. We will refer to all of these technologies together as “cookies”.
The specific uses we make of these technologies are described in this document.
Cookies are an essential part of how the Website works. The main purpose of our cookies is to improve your browsing experience, for example by remembering your preferences (language, country, etc.) while you browse and on 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 to obtain information that allows us to show you advertising based on the analysis of your browsing habits.
No sensitive personally identifiable information such as your name, address, password, etc. is stored in the cookies we use.
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 that improve the user experience. For example, the statistics collected on the number of visits, the most popular content, etc. are usually managed by Google Analytics.
If you prefer to avoid cookies, you can REJECT them or CONFIGURE which ones you want to avoid and which ones you allow (in this document we give you more information about each type of cookie, its purpose, recipient, duration, etc.).
If you have accepted them, we will not ask you again unless you delete the cookies on your device as explained in the next section. If you want to withdraw your consent, you will need to delete the cookies and configure them again.
You can restrict, block or delete cookies from this Website (and those used by third parties) at any time by changing your browser settings. Please note that these settings differ from browser to browser.
The following links provide instructions on how to enable or disable cookies in the most common browsers.
Each website uses its own cookies. We use the cookies listed below on our website:
BY 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 publisher itself, 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.
If cookies are served from a computer or domain managed by the publisher itself, but the information they collect is managed by a third party, they cannot be considered first-party cookies if the third party uses them for its own purposes (for example, to improve the services it provides or to provide advertising services to other entities).
BY PURPOSE
Technical cookies:
These are the cookies needed for browsing and for our Website to work properly, for example to control traffic and data communication, identify the session, access restricted areas, apply to register for or take part in an event, count visits for the licence billing of the software that runs the Website, use security features while browsing, store content for streaming video or sound, enable dynamic content (for example, a loading animation for text or images) or share content on social media.
Analytics cookies:
They make it possible to quantify the number of users and thus carry out the measurement and statistical analysis of the use made by users of the Website.
Preference or personalisation cookies:
These are cookies that remember information so that the User can access the service with certain features that may make their experience different from that of other users, such as the language, the number of results displayed when the User searches, or the appearance or content of the service depending on the browser used to access it or the region the User accesses it from, etc.
BY HOW LONG THEY REMAIN ACTIVE
Session cookies:
These are cookies designed to collect and store data while the User is visiting a web page.
They are usually used to store information that is only relevant to the provision of the service requested by the User on a single occasion (e.g. a list of products purchased) and disappear at the end of the session.
Persistent cookies:
These are cookies whose data remains stored on the device and can be accessed and processed for a period set by the cookie owner, which can range from a few minutes to several years. In this respect, it should be specifically assessed whether persistent cookies are necessary, since privacy risks could be reduced by using session cookies. In any case, when persistent cookies are installed, it is recommended to keep their duration to the minimum necessary for their purpose. To this end, Article 29 Working Party Opinion 4/2012 stated that, for a cookie to be exempt from the duty of informed consent, its expiry must be related to its purpose. As a result, session cookies are much more likely to be considered exempt than persistent ones.
