More information about cookies
What is a cookie?
A cookie is a harmless text file that is stored in your browser when you visit almost any web page. The purpose of the cookie is to enable the website to remember your visit when you browse that page again. Although many people are unaware of it, cookies have been in use for decades, since the first browsers for the World Wide Web appeared.
What is a cookie NOT?
It is not a virus, a Trojan, a worm, spam, spyware, and it does not open pop-up windows.
What information does a cookie store?
Cookies do not usually store sensitive information about you, such as credit cards or banking details, photographs, your ID document or personal information, etc. The data they save is of a technical nature, personal preferences, content personalisation, etc.
The web server does not associate you as a person but rather your web browser. In fact, if you usually browse with one browser and try to browse the same website with a different one, you will see that the website does not realise that you are the same person, because it is actually associating the browser, not the person.
What types of cookies are there?
- Technical cookies: these are the most basic and allow, among other things, knowing when a human or an automated application is browsing, when an anonymous user and a registered one are browsing, basic tasks for the functioning of any dynamic website.
- Analytics cookies: they collect information about the type of browsing you are doing, the sections you use most, products viewed, time slot of use, language, etc.
- Advertising cookies: they display advertising based on your browsing, your country of origin, language, etc.
What are 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 Google, Meta, etc.
