This website, like most sites on the internet, uses cookies to enhance and optimise the user experience.

Below, you will find detailed information about what cookies are, the types of cookies used by this website, how to disable them in your browser, and how to specifically block the installation of third-party cookies.

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are files that websites or applications install on the user’s browser or device (for example: smartphone, tablet, or connected television) while browsing the pages of the site or application. They are used to store information about the user’s visit.

Like most websites, this website uses cookies to:

• Ensure that the web pages function correctly.
• Store user preferences, such as the selected language or text size.
• Understand the user’s browsing experience.
• Collect anonymous statistical information, such as which pages the user has visited or how long they stayed on the website.

The use of cookies allows for optimisation of browsing, adapting the information and services offered to the user’s interests, to provide a better experience every time they visit the website.

This website uses cookies to function, adapt, and facilitate user navigation to the fullest extent.

2. Types, purpose, and operation

Cookies can be classified based on their duration as session cookies or persistent cookies. Session cookies expire when the user closes the browser, while persistent cookies expire once their purpose has been fulfilled (for example, to keep the user logged in on the website) or when they are manually deleted.

Additionally, cookies can be classified according to their purpose as follows:

• Strictly necessary (technical): These are essential for the proper functioning of the website. They are typically generated when the user accesses or logs into the site and are used to identify the user on the website for the following purposes:
  • Keep the user logged in so that, if they leave the website, browser, or device and later return, they remain identified, allowing for easier navigation without needing to log in again.
  • Check if the user is authorised to access certain services or areas of the website.
• Performance: These cookies are used to enhance the browsing experience and optimise the performance of the website, such as storing service configurations or keeping track of items in a shopping cart.
• Advertising: These cookies collect information about the ads shown to website users. They can be of two types:
  • Anonymous: They only collect information about the advertising spaces displayed on the website, regardless of who is accessing the website, i.e., without expressly identifying the user.
  • Personalised: These collect personal information from the website user by third parties for the personalisation of such advertising spaces.
• Geo-location: These cookies are used to determine the country or region the user is in when accessing a website service, in order to offer content or services appropriate to their location.
• Analytics: These cookies collect information about the user’s browsing experience on the website, usually anonymously, although occasionally they can allow for unique and unequivocal identification of the user in order to generate reports on users’ interests in the services offered by the website.

3. Cookies used on this website

The following table shows the cookies used on this website, incorporating a “level of intrusiveness” criterion on a scale from 1 to 3, where:

• Level 1: Corresponds to cookies that are strictly necessary for the provision of the service requested by the user.
• Level 2: Corresponds to performance cookies (anonymous) that are necessary for maintaining content and navigation, and for which it is only necessary to inform about their existence.
• Level 3: Corresponds to cookies managed by third parties that allow tracking of the user across websites not owned by SESDERMA, S.L. These are usually advertising or analytics cookies that uniquely and clearly identify the user.
