What are cookies?

The website owned and held by Grupo Pueblo Terracota, S.L. (hereinafter “the web” or the “website”) uses cookies and/or similar technologies that store and retrieve information when you browse. In general, these technologies can serve very diverse purposes, such as recognizing you as a user, obtaining information about your browsing habits, or customizing the way content is displayed.

The user may configure their browser to notify and reject the installation of cookies sent by the web, without prejudice to the possibility of accessing the contents of said web, although the operational quality of the website may decrease.

The specific uses we make of these technologies are described below.

What types of cookies exist?

Cookies, depending on their Durability, can be divided into:
Session cookies
These are designed to collect and store data while the user accesses a web page. They are usually used to store information that is only relevant for the provision of the requested service. They expire when the user closes the browser.

Persistent cookies
These are cookies in which the data remains stored in the terminal and can be accessed and processed during a defined period depending on when the purpose for which they serve is fulfilled (for example, so the user remains identified in the Services) or when they are manually deleted.

Depending on their Owner, they can be divided into:
First-party cookies
These are sent to the user’s terminal equipment from a device or domain managed by the publisher itself and from which the service requested by the user is provided.

Third-party cookies
These are sent to the user’s terminal equipment from a device or domain that is not managed by the publisher, but by another entity that processes the data obtained through the cookies.

Additionally, based on their purpose, Cookies can be classified as follows:
Technical cookies
These allow the user to navigate through a web page, platform, or application and use the different options or services that exist therein, including those that the publisher uses to allow the management and operation of the web page and enable its functions and services, such as identifying the session or controlling traffic and data communication.

Preference or personalization cookies
This type of Cookie remembers your preferences for the tools found in the services, so you do not have to reconfigure the service every time you visit. Examples include:
– Volume settings for video or sound players.
– Video transmission speeds compatible with your browser.

Geo-location cookies
These Cookies are used to find out which country you are in when a service is requested. This Cookie is completely anonymous and is only used to help target content to your location.

Registration cookies
Registration Cookies are generated once the user has registered or subsequently opened their session, and are used to identify you in 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 day re-enter said service, they will remain identified, thus facilitating their navigation without having to re-identify themselves. This functionality can be deleted if the user clicks the “log out” function.
– To check if the user is authorized to access certain services, for example, to participate in a contest.

Analysis or measurement 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 will serve in future visits to identify the visitor anonymously. The main objectives are:
– To allow the anonymous identification of browsing users (identifies browsers and devices, not people) and therefore the approximate counting of the number of visitors and their trend over time.
– To identify anonymously the most visited and therefore most attractive content.
– To know if the user is new or a repeat visitor.
– Important: Unless the user decides to register for a Web service, the “Cookie” will never be associated with any personal data that can identify them.

Behavioral advertising cookies
These allow for the expansion of information of the ads shown to each anonymous user. Among others, the duration or frequency of display of advertising positions, interaction with them, or browsing patterns and/or user behavior are stored as they help form an advertising interest profile.

Third-party advertising cookies
In addition to the advertising managed by the Web, the Web offers its advertisers the option of serving ads through third parties (“AdServers”). In this way, these third parties can store Cookies sent from the Web Services from the Users’ browsers, as well as access the data stored in them.
