DEPENDING ON THE PURPOSE

• Technical and functional cookies: are those that allow the user to browse through a website, platform or application and use the different options or services that exist on it, including the management and operation of the website and enabling its functions and services, such as, for example, 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, etc. The website cannot function properly without these cookies, which is why they are considered necessary.

• Preference or personalisation cookies:allow the website to remember information that changes the way the website behaves or the way it looks, so that the user accesses the service with certain features that may differentiate their experience from that of other users, such as, for example, the language, the number of results to display when the user performs a search or the region in which the user is located. If the user chooses these features themselves, for example by marking the language flag, this is considered an expressly requested service as long as the cookies are exclusively for the selected purpose of personalisation.

• Analysis or measurement cookies: are those that allow us to understand how visitors interact with the web pages and thus perform statistical analysis of the use made by web users of the services provided. The information collected is used in measuring the activity of the websites or application in order to introduce improvements in the products and services offered by the responsible party.
