• WHAT ARE COOKIES AND WHAT DO WE USE THEM FOR?

A cookie is a small information file that is stored on your computer, smartphone, or tablet every time you visit our website. In principle, a cookie is harmless: it does not contain viruses, Trojans, worms, etc. that could damage your device. However, it does have a certain impact on your right to the protection of your personal data, as it collects certain information about you (browsing habits, identity, preferences, etc.). Therefore, based on the provisions of the applicable regulations (LSSI and current personal data protection regulations), the activation of certain types of cookies will require your prior authorization. Before doing so, we will provide you with some additional information that will help you make better decisions in this regard:

You can accept all these cookies by clicking the ACCEPT button, reject them by clicking the REJECT button, or configure them by clicking on the COOKIE SETTINGS section.

1. Some cookies are ours (we’ll call them first-party cookies) and others belong to external companies that provide services for our website (we’ll call them third-party cookies: an example could be cookies from external providers such as Google). In this sense, it is important that you know that some of these external providers may be located outside of Spain.

Globally, not all countries have the same level of data protection, with some countries being safer than others (for example, the European Union is a safe environment for your data). Our policy is to use reliable providers who, regardless of whether they are located in the European Union or not, have adopted appropriate safeguards to protect your personal information. However, in the section titled WHAT TYPE OF COOKIES ARE CURRENTLY USED ON OUR WEBSITE?, you can consult the different privacy and data protection policies of each of the aforementioned third-party providers, in order to make an informed decision about whether or not to activate the third-party cookies used on our website.

1. Finally, please note that, depending on the length of time they remain active, cookies can be of two types:

• Session cookies: These expire automatically when you end the session on your computer, smartphone, or tablet. They are usually used to retain the necessary information while a service is provided to you on a single occasion.
