WHAT TYPES OF COOKIES EXIST?
Cookies can be classified as the following types:
By the issuer of the cookies
- Own cookies: These are cookies that are stored on the user’s device from a computer or domain managed by the editor (Adolfo Domínguez, in this case) and from which the service requested by the user is provided.
- Third party cookies: These are cookies that are stored on the user’s device from a computer or domain that is not managed by the editor, but by a different entity that processes the data obtained through the cookies.
By the life cycle of the cookies
- Session cookies: These are temporary cookies that remain in your browser’s cookie file until you leave the website, therefore nothing is registered on the user’s hard drive. The information obtained through these cookies is used to analyse traffic on the website. In the long-term, this allows us to improve the experience, content and ease of use.
- Permanent cookies: These are stored on the hard drive and our website reads them each time you visit the website. A permanent cookie has a specified expiration date. The cookie will stop working after that date. We use them, in general, to facilitate the purchase and registration services.
By the purpose of the cookies
- Technical cookies: These permit the User to browse through a website, platform or application and to use the various options or services that exist on the same. For example: controlling data communication and traffic, identifying the session, access areas of restricted access, remembering the elements that form part of an order, completing the purchase process for an order, making a request for registration or participation in an event, using security elements during browsing, storing content for the distribution of videos or sound or sharing content on social media.
- Personalisation cookies: These permit the user to access the service with some predefined general characteristics depending on a series of criteria on the user's device such as the language, the type of browser used to access the service, the regional service from where the service is accessed, etc.
- Analysis cookies: These permit the manager of the same to monitor and analyse the behaviour of the users on the websites to which they are linked. The information collected through this type of cookie is used to measure activity on the website, application or platform and to elaborate browsing profiles for the users of said websites, applications and platforms in order to introduce improvements depending on the analysis of usage data by the users of the service.

- Behavioural advertising cookies: These permit management, in the most efficient way possible, of the advertising spaces that, when applicable, the editor has included on a website, application or platform from which they provide the service requested. These cookies store information on the behaviour of the users obtained through continued observation of their browsing habits, which allows for the development of a specific profile to show advertising based on the same. It is also possible that upon visiting a website or opening an email that contains an advertisement or promotion for our products or services, a cookie may be installed on your browser to allow us to later show you advertising related to the search made, to develop control of our advertisements regarding, for example, the number of times they have been viewed, the time they are viewed at, etc.
