What is a cookie?

A cookie is a file that is downloaded to your computer when you access certain websites. Cookies allow a website, among other things, to store and retrieve information about the browsing habits of a user or their equipment and, depending on the information they contain and the way in which their equipment is used, they can be used to recognise the user.

However, these means only obtain information related to the number of pages visited, the city to which the IP address from which it is accessed is assigned, the number of new users, the frequency and recurrence of visits, the time of visit, the browser or the operator or type of terminal from which the visit is made. In no case are data obtained on the name, surname, postal address or other similar data of the user who has connected.


What types of cookies are there?

Cookies can be first-party or third-party cookies. First-party cookies are those that are sent to the user's terminal equipment from a computer or domain managed by the web editor from which the service requested by the user is provided. Third-party cookies are those that are sent to the user's terminal equipment from a computer or domain that is not managed by the editor, but by another entity that processes the data obtained through the cookies.

In addition, cookies can be session or persistent. Session cookies are a type of cookie designed to collect and store data while the user accesses a website. Persistent cookies are a type of cookie that means that the data remains stored in the terminal and can be accessed and processed for a period defined by the party responsible for the cookie, which can range from a few minutes to several years.
