Types of cookies

Types of cookies according to the entity that manages them **Own cookies:** are those that are sent to the user's terminal equipment from a computer or domain managed by the website owner and from which the requested service is provided by the user. **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 website owner from which the requested service is provided by the user, but by another entity that processes the data obtained through cookies. Likewise, in the event that cookies are installed from a computer or domain managed by the website owner itself but the information collected through them is managed by a third party, they will also be considered as third-party cookies.

Types of cookies according to the purpose:

**Technical cookies:** are those that allow the user to navigate through a website, platform or application and use the different options or services that are on it, including those that the editor uses to allow the management and operation of the website and enable its functions and services, such as controlling traffic and data communication, identifying the session, accessing restricted access parts, remembering the elements that make up an order, carrying out the purchase process of an order, managing payment, controlling fraud linked to the security of the service, making the request for registration or participation in an event, counting visits for the purpose of billing software licenses with which the service works (website, platform or application), using security elements during navigation, storing content for the dissemination of videos or sound, enabling dynamic content (for example, loading animation of a text or image) or sharing content through social networks. Also belonging to this category, due to their technical nature, are those cookies that allow the management, in the most efficient way possible, of the advertising spaces that, as an element of design or “layout” of the service offered to the user, the editor has included in a website, application or platform based on criteria such as the edited content, without collecting information from users for different purposes, such as customizing this advertising content or other content. **Preference or customization cookies:** are those that allow you to remember information so that the user accesses the service with certain characteristics that can differentiate their experience from that of other users, such as the language, the number of results to show when the user makes a search, the appearance or content of the service depending on the type of browser through which the user accesses the service or the region from which the user accesses the service, etc. **Analysis or measurement cookies:** are those that allow the person responsible for them to track and analyze the behavior of users of the websites to which they are linked, including the quantification of the impacts of advertisements. The information collected through this type of cookies is used in the measurement of the activity of the websites, application or platform, to introduce improvements based on the analysis of the data of use made by users of the service. **Behavioral advertising cookies:** are those that allow the management, in the most efficient way possible, of the advertising spaces on the website. These cookies store information on the behavior of users obtained through continuous observation of their browsing habits, which allows developing a specific profile to display advertising based on it. **Geolocation cookies:** are used to know where a user is when requesting a service. This cookie is anonymous and is used, for example, to offer you the appropriate information depending on the country where you are.

Types of cookies according to the time they remain activated:

**Session cookies:** are those designed to request and store data while the user accesses a website. They are usually used to store information that is only of interest to keep for the provision of the service requested by the user on a single occasion (for example, a list of purchased products) and disappear at the end of the session. **Persistent cookies:** are those in which the data is still stored on the terminal and can be accessed and processed during a period defined by the person responsible for the cookie, which can range from a few minutes to several years.
