Information about cookies

1. What are cookies and why do we use them?

A cookie is a file that is downloaded to the user's device when accessing certain web pages to store and retrieve information about the browsing done from that computer.

Cookies allow the website, among other things, to store and retrieve information about the user's decisions and habits. We use them to personalise the experience on our websites, identify and remember the registered user and facilitate browsing.

It is important to note that the use of cookies does not provide personal data of the user, who remains anonymous.

The user can configure their browser to not accept the use of cookies, in which case the personalisation of the experience will not be applied, although they will still be able to access the contents of our websites normally.

More information about what cookies are and how they work can be found on the Wikipedia page (http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cookie_(computing)).

2. What type of cookies does this website use?

Cookies, depending on their permanence, can be divided into session or permanent cookies. The former expire when the user closes the browser. The latter expire when the purpose for which they are used is fulfilled (for example, so that the user remains identified on the websites and services of this website) or when they are manually deleted.

Additionally, depending on their purpose, Cookies can be classified as follows:

- Performance Cookies: this type of Cookie remembers your preferences for the tools found in the services, so you do not have to reconfigure the service each time you visit. By way of example, this type includes:

• Volume settings for video or sound players.
• Video streaming 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 website or service. 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 logged in, and are used to identify the User on the websites and services for the following purposes:

• To keep the User identified so that, if he/she closes a service or website, the browser or the computer and at another time or another day re-enters said service or website, he/she will continue to be identified, thus facilitating his/her browsing without having to identify him/herself again. This functionality can be deleted if the user clicks on the "Exit" function, so that this Cookie is deleted and the next time the user enters the website he/she will have to log in to be identified.
• Check if the user is authorised to access certain services, for example, to participate in a competition.
• Additionally, some services may use third party connectors such as Facebook, Twitter or Google. When the user registers for a service with credentials from a social network or third-party identification system, they authorise the service to store a persistent cookie that remembers their identity and grants them access to the website until it expires. The user can delete this cookie and revoke access to the website through social networks or third-party identification systems by updating their preferences in the specific social network.

- Analytical cookies: Every time a User visits a Website or Service, a tool from an external provider (Google Analytics, comScore and similar) generates an analytical cookie on the User's device. This cookie, which is only generated during the visit, will be used in future visits to the services of this website to anonymously identify the visitor. The main objectives pursued are:

• To allow the anonymous identification of browsing users through the "Cookie" (identifies browsers and devices, not people) and therefore the approximate counting of the number of visitors and their trend over time.
• Identify anonymously the most visited content and therefore more attractive to users.
• To know whether the user accessing the site is new or a repeat visitor.

Important: Unless the user decides to register on this website, the cookie will never be associated with any personal data that can identify him/her. These cookies will only be used for statistical purposes to help optimise the user experience on the site.
