Cookie Policy

This website uses its own and third-party cookies in order to achieve the best possible user experience, implement essential functionalities for its correct functioning and to obtain statistics on anonymous visits to the website and similar, vital for decision making in our business.

Cookies do not allow the collection of personal information from the user. This is an implicit technical limitation of cookie technology, not something peculiar to the implementation of this website.

They only allow the same browsing device (computer, mobile phone, etc.) to be recognised when accessing the website again, but without being able to know the identity of the user.

Virtually all popular browsers today allow the configuration of cookie download policies and it is possible to disable them completely if the user chooses to do so.

As indicated in the cookie notice, if you continue browsing this website, it will be considered that you are giving your consent to the use of the cookies listed here in accordance with the terms established in article 22.2 of Law 34/2002 of the Information Society and Electronic Commerce Services Act (Ley 34/2002 de Servicios de la Sociedad de la Información y Comercio Electrónico).

WHAT ARE COOKIES?

Cookies are a set of data that a server deposits in the user’s browser that allows it to recognise the device in question (computer, mobile phone, etc.). Practically all websites use cookies as they allow pages to function more efficiently and to achieve greater personalisation and analysis of user behaviour.

Cookies do not allow the identification and collection of the user’s personal data, but only to recognise a device that has previously accessed the website in question. In order to recognise the user’s identity, it is necessary that the user expressly registers on the website and expressly provides his or her personal information, as is the case with online services of all kinds (banking, e-commerce, suppliers, etc.). If the user does not log out, the cookie can indirectly recognise the user by recognising the device with which the user initially logged in. Strictly speaking, however, it is still the device, not the user, that is recognised in this case. This is clear if you think about the case of a different person than the one who made the registration and who uses that same device later to access the same website. The website cannot technically know whether the user is the same or a different one, and the security problem really occurs at the level of the user himself (letting someone else access a device with confidential information on it).
