What are cookies?
The website caceríasibericas.es (hereinafter the Website) uses Cookies. Cookies are files sent to a browser by means of a web server in order to record the User’s activities on a given website. The primary purpose of Cookies is to provide the user with faster access to the selected services. In addition, Cookies personalise the services offered by the Website, facilitating and offering each user information that is of interest, or that may be of interest, to them, taking into account the use they make of the Services.
The Website uses Cookies to personalise and facilitate the user’s browsing as much as possible. Cookies are associated solely with an anonymous user and their computer and do not provide references that allow the user’s personal data to be inferred. The user may configure their browser to notify of and reject the installation of the Cookies sent by the Website, without this impairing the user’s ability to access the contents of said website. However, we point out that, in any case, the quality of the Website’s operation may decrease.
Registered users, those who register or who have logged in, may benefit from more personalised services tailored to their profile, thanks to the combination of the data stored in the cookies with the personal data used at the time of their registration. Such users expressly authorise the use of this information for the stated purpose, without prejudice to their right to reject or disable the use of cookies.
Likewise, the Website may become aware of all the services requested by users, so that it may provide or offer information suited to the tastes and preferences of each user.
What types of cookies are there?
Cookies, according to their Duration, may be divided into:
- “Session cookies”: The former expire when the user closes the browser.
- “Persistent cookies”. The latter expire depending on when the objective for which they serve is fulfilled (for example, to keep the user identified within the Services) or when they are manually deleted.
Additionally, according to their Objective, Cookies may be classified as follows:
- Performance cookies: This type of Cookie remembers your preferences for the tools found within the services, so that you do not have to reconfigure the service each time you visit. By way of example, this category includes:
- Volume settings for video or audio players.
- The video transmission speeds that are compatible with your browser.
- Geolocation cookies: These Cookies are used to find out which country you are in when you request a service. This Cookie is entirely anonymous, and is only used to help tailor the content to your location.
- Registration cookies: Registration Cookies are generated once the user has registered or has subsequently opened their session, and are used to identify them within the services with the following objectives:
- To keep the user identified so that, if they close a service, the browser or the computer and at another time or on another day they access said service again, they will remain identified, thus facilitating their browsing without having to identify themselves again. This functionality can be removed if the user clicks the “log out” function, so that this Cookie is deleted and the next time the user accesses the service they will have to log in to be identified.
- To check whether the user is authorised to access certain services, for example, to take part in a competition.
- Analytical cookies: Each time a User visits a service, a tool from an external provider generates an analytical Cookie on the user’s computer. This Cookie, which is only generated on the visit, will serve on future visits to the Website’s Services to anonymously identify the visitor. The main objectives pursued are:
- To allow the anonymous identification of browsing users through the “Cookie” (it identifies browsers and devices, not individuals) and therefore the approximate counting of the number of visitors and their trend over time.
- To anonymously identify the most visited and therefore most attractive content for users.
- To know whether the user accessing the site is new or a returning visitor.
- Important: Unless the user decides to register with a service on the Website, the “Cookie” will never be associated with any personal data that could identify them. Such Cookies will only be used for statistical purposes that help to optimise the Users’ experience on the site.
- Behavioural advertising cookies: This type of “Cookie” makes it possible to expand the information on the advertisements shown to each anonymous user within the Website’s Services. Among other things, the duration or frequency of display of advertising placements, the interaction with them, or the user’s browsing and/or behaviour patterns are stored, as they help to build up an advertising interest profile. In this way, they make it possible to offer advertising that matches the user’s interests.
- Third-party advertising cookies: In addition to the advertising managed by the Website within its Services, the Website offers its advertisers the option of serving advertisements through third parties (“AdServers”). In this way, these third parties may store Cookies sent from the Website’s Services from the Users’ browsers, as well as access the data stored in them.
