This cookie and similar technologies policy is intended to provide clear and comprehensive information on the use of cookies and other storage and access technologies on the user's terminal equipment, in accordance with the applicable legislation on information society services and personal data protection.

Except for technical or strictly necessary cookies, cookies shall not be installed or used without the user's prior consent. Such consent may be given, refused or configured through the panel provided for this purpose, and may be withdrawn or amended at any time.

In the first layer of information, the user must be provided with equivalent and clearly visible options to accept all cookies, reject all non-essential cookies or configure their preferences by purpose. Refusal of non-essential cookies shall not, as a general rule, prevent access to the website, without prejudice to the fact that certain functionalities may be limited where they depend on such technologies.

This policy supplements the privacy policy and includes, among other matters, the following information:

• What are cookies?

• What are cookies used for?

• What is local storage?

• What are third-party cookies?

• How can the use of cookies be prevented and how can cookies be deleted?

• How can consent be managed or withdrawn?

WHAT ARE COOKIES?

“Cookies” are small temporary files that are created on the user's device (computer, mobile phone, tablet, etc.) when the user visits a website, and which enable that website to store information, for example, to save the user's usage preferences or to recognise the user on subsequent visits.

When a website creates a cookie on the user's device, the following information is stored:

• The address/domain of the website that created the cookie;

• The duration of the cookie, which may range from a few minutes to several years; and

• The content of the cookie.

The user may at any time configure their browser to prevent (block) the use of cookies by certain websites, as well as delete cookies previously stored.

WHAT TYPES OF COOKIES ARE USED?

Technical or strictly necessary cookies

hese are cookies that enable browsing through the website, the use of its basic functions, session management, security, fraud prevention or the provision of a service expressly requested by the user. These cookies do not require consent.

Preference or personalisation cookies

These allow information to be remembered so that the user can access the service with certain characteristics, such as language, regional settings or the appearance of the site. Where the preference is chosen directly by the user and is used exclusively to remember that choice, such cookies may be considered technical; otherwise, they shall require consent.

Analytics or measurement cookies

These make it possible to quantify the number of users and to measure and statistically analyse how users use the website, with a view to making improvements based on the analysis of usage data. Unless the conditions allowing them to be treated as exempt are met, they shall require the user's consent.

Advertising cookies

These make it possible to manage, as effectively as possible, any advertising spaces on the website, where applicable, according to criteria such as the edited content or the frequency with which advertisements are displayed. They require consent.

Behavioural advertising cookies

These allow information on users' behaviour, obtained through the continuous observation of their browsing habits, to be stored in order to create a specific profile and display advertising based on that profile. They require express consent.

Third-party cookies and similar technologies

These are cookies managed by entities other than the website owner, including analytics tools, maps, videos, social networks, pixels, identifiers or equivalent tracking technologies. Their use will depend on the specific purpose and, where they are not necessary, will require prior consent. 

WHAT IS LOCAL STORAGE?

Local storage and similar technologies means any technology that enables information to be stored on the user's terminal equipment or access to information already stored, including, among others, cookies, localStorage, sessionStorage, tracking pixels, web beacons, unique identifiers, SDKs, tags or device fingerprinting techniques, where applicable.

Browser local storage, such as “sessionStorage” and “localStorage”, which allows information to be stored during a browsing session or persistently until deleted by the user or by the website itself.

Tracking pixels or web beacons, which make it possible to know whether certain content or electronic communication has been accessed and which may be used for analytics or advertising purposes, provided that the relevant legal basis exists.

Device identification or fingerprinting techniques, where they allow the user or their terminal equipment to be recognised or singled out.

WHAT ARE THIRD-PARTY COOKIES?

Many websites incorporate functions or features provided by third parties, such as:

• Access and page usage analytic

• Interactive maps

• Videos and other multimedia elements

• Social buttons

The provider of a function or feature may use cookies and other local storage technologies according to its own criteria and purposes. Some providers use cookies and other tracking technologies to collect information on the user's browsing habits in order to display advertising tailored to the user's interests.

The use of non-essential third-party cookies shall require the user's prior consent. The user may consult the identity of such third parties, the associated purposes, the duration of the cookies and, where applicable, the existence of international transfers, through this policy and/or the cookie settings panel.

HOW CAN CONSENT BE MANAGED OR WITHDRAWN?

The user may accept, reject or configure the use of non-essential cookies from the settings panel available on the website. The user may also amend their preferences or withdraw the consent previously given at any time by accessing the cookie settings panel again.

Withdrawal of consent shall not affect the lawfulness of the use of cookies carried out prior to such withdrawal. In any event, technical or strictly necessary cookies may remain active to the extent that they are essential for the provision of the service requested by the user.

HOW CAN THE USE OF COOKIES BE PREVENTED AND HOW CAN COOKIES BE DELETED?

Without prejudice to the cookie settings panel, most browsers allow users to block, restrict or delete cookies, as well as delete other browsing data stored on the device. Browser settings are independent from the website's consent panel and may affect the functionality of other websites.

Below are links to the help pages of the most commonly used browsers to find out how to configure cookies in each of them:

• Chrome

• Internet Explorer

• Firefox

• Safari

• Safari for IOS

• Opera

Some information may be stored in the browser's local storage or in Flash storage.

To delete data stored in the browser's local storage, the user must delete their browsing history.
