COOKIE POLICY
In compliance with Spanish legislation and following the guidelines of the Spanish Data Protection Agency, we set out below what a cookie is, which cookies are used on this website, the use it makes of them, and how to disable them.
WHAT IS A COOKIE AND WHAT INFORMATION DOES IT STORE?
A cookie is a small text file that is stored in your browser when you visit almost any website. Cookies have been in use for 20 years, since the first web browsers appeared. A cookie is not a virus, a Trojan, a worm, spam or spyware, and it does not open pop-up windows.
The data cookies store is technical in nature: personal preferences, content personalisation, usage statistics, links to social networks, access to user accounts, and so on. Cookies do not store sensitive information about you, such as credit cards or bank details, photographs, your ID document or personal information.
Their purpose is to allow the website to remember your visit when you browse that page again. The aim of the cookie is to adapt the website's content to your profile and needs; without cookies, the services offered by any page would be significantly reduced.
The web server does not associate you as a person but rather your web browser. In fact, if you usually browse with Internet Explorer and then try browsing the same website with Firefox or Chrome, you will see that the website does not realise you are the same person, because it is actually associating the browser, not the person.
WHAT TYPES OF COOKIES DO WE USE?
On our website we use first-party and third-party cookies. First-party cookies are those generated by the page you are visiting, and third-party cookies are those generated by external services or providers such as Facebook, Twitter, Google, and so on.
This website uses the following first-party cookies:
- Technical cookies: these are the most basic and allow, among other things, knowing when an anonymous user is browsing and when a registered one is, language preferences, as well as basic tasks for the functioning of any dynamic website.
- Analytics cookies: these collect information about the type of browsing you are doing, the sections you use most, the posts consulted, the time of day of use, the language, and so on.
This website uses the following third-party cookies:
- Google Analytics: stores cookies in order to compile statistics on the traffic and volume of visits to this website. By using this website you are consenting to the processing of information about you by Google. Therefore, the exercise of any right in this regard must be done by communicating directly with Google. Google stores cookies on servers located in the United States and undertakes not to share them with third parties, except where necessary for the operation of the system or where required to do so by law. Google Inc. is a company adhering to the Privacy Shield Agreement, which guarantees that all transferred data will be handled with a level of protection in line with European legislation.

CAN COOKIES BE DELETED OR DISABLED?
Yes. Not only deleted, but also blocked, either generally or specifically for a particular domain.

WHAT HAPPENS IF I DISABLE COOKIES?

- It will not be possible to personalise your geographical preferences such as time zone or language.
- This site will not be able to carry out web analytics on visitors and traffic, which will make it harder for the website to optimise its content in order to offer you the information you find most interesting.
ADDITIONAL NOTES
