What are cookies?

Cookies are files that can be downloaded to your device through websites. They are tools that play an essential role in providing numerous information society services. Among other functions, cookies allow a website to store and retrieve information about a user’s browsing habits or their device, and depending on the information obtained, they can be used to recognize the user and improve the service offered.

Types of cookies

Depending on the entity that manages the domain from which the cookies are sent and processes the data obtained, two types of cookies can be distinguished:

• First-party cookies: These are sent to the user’s terminal from a device or domain managed by the publisher itself and from which the requested service is provided.
• Third-party cookies: These are sent to the user’s terminal from a device or domain that is not managed by the publisher, but by another entity that processes the data obtained through the cookies.

If cookies are installed from a device or domain managed by the publisher but the information collected through them is managed by a third party, they cannot be considered first-party cookies.

There is also a second classification based on the amount of time the cookies remain stored in the client’s browser, which can be:

• Session cookies: Designed to collect and store data while the user accesses a website. They are usually used to store information that is only relevant for the provision of the service requested by the user on a one-time basis (e.g., a list of purchased products).
• Persistent cookies: The data remains stored on the device and can be accessed and processed for a period defined by the cookie controller, which can range from a few minutes to several years.

Finally, there is another classification with six types of cookies according to the purpose for which the obtained data are processed:

• Technical cookies: These allow the user to navigate through a website, platform, or application and to use the different options or services available, such as controlling traffic and data communication, identifying the session, accessing restricted areas, remembering the items that make up an order, processing an order purchase, handling registration or participation in an event, using security elements during navigation, storing content for video or audio streaming, or sharing content through social networks.
• Personalization cookies: These allow the user to access the service with some predefined general characteristics based on a series of criteria on the user’s device, such as language, type of browser used to access the service, regional settings from where the service is accessed, etc.
• Analytical cookies: These allow the controller to track and analyze the behavior of users on the websites to which they are linked. The information collected through this type of cookie is used to measure website, application, or platform activity and to create user navigation profiles, with the aim of making improvements based on the analysis of usage data.
• Advertising cookies: These allow for the most effective management of advertising spaces.
• Behavioral advertising cookies: These store information about users’ behavior obtained through continuous observation of their browsing habits, which allows for the development of a specific profile to display tailored advertisements.
• External social media cookies: These are used so that visitors can interact with content from various social platforms (such as Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn, etc.) and are generated solely for the users of those social networks. The terms of use for these cookies and the information collected are governed by the privacy policy of the respective social platform.
