WHAT ARE COOKIES?

Cookies and other similar technologies such as local shared objects, flash cookies or pixels are tools used by web servers to store and retrieve information about their visitors and to provide a proper functioning of the site.

The use of these devices allows the web server to remember some data concerning the user, such as his preferences for viewing the pages of that server, name and password, products he is most interested in, etc.

Through the use of cookies it is also possible for the server where the website is located to recognise the browser used by the user in order to make browsing easier, allowing, for example, access by users who have previously registered to the areas, services, promotions or competitions reserved exclusively for them without having to register on each visit. They can also be used to measure the audience, traffic parameters, control the progress and number of entries, etc.
