COOKIES POLICY
1. What are cookies?
The website owned by J. García Carrión, S.A. (hereinafter, the “website” or “site”) uses cookies and/or similar technologies that store and retrieve information while you browse. In general, these technologies can serve very different purposes—for example, recognising you as a user, obtaining information about your browsing habits or customising how content is displayed.
You may configure your browser to notify you of, and refuse, the installation of cookies sent by the website without this preventing you from accessing its content, although the site’s performance quality may be reduced.
The specific purposes for which we use these technologies are described below.
2. What types of cookies exist?
According to duration
Type |
Description |
Session cookies | Designed to collect and store data while the user accesses a web page. They are usually employed to store information needed only for providing the requested service and expire when the browser is closed. |
Persistent cookies | Data remain stored on the device and can be accessed and processed for a period defined by the cookie owner—until the purpose has been fulfilled (e.g., keeping the user logged in) or the cookie is deleted manually. |
According to ownership
Type | Description |
First-party cookies | Sent to the user’s terminal from equipment or a domain managed by the site editor itself, which provides the service requested by the user. |
Third-party cookies | Sent to the user’s terminal from equipment or a domain not managed by the editor, but by another entity that processes the data obtained through the cookies. |
According to purpose
Type | Description / Examples |
Technical cookies | Enable navigation through a website, platform or app and use of the different options or services available (e.g., session identification, traffic control, communication of data). |
Preference / personalisation cookies | Remember your settings so you don’t have to reconfigure the service each time you visit (e.g., volume settings of video/audio players, video-transfer rates compatible with your browser). |
Geo-location cookies | Determine the country you are in when requesting a service. These cookies are anonymous and used solely to tailor content to your location. |
Registration cookies | Generated after a user has registered or logged in and are used to: 1) keep the user identified across sessions; 2) verify whether the user is authorised to access certain services (e.g., entering a competition). |
Analytics / measurement cookies | Each time a user visits the site, a third-party tool generates an analytic cookie on the user’s device to: – anonymously identify the browser/device and estimate visitor numbers and trends; – anonymously identify the most visited content; – know whether a visitor is new or returning. These cookies are used solely for statistical purposes to optimise user experience. |
Behavioural-advertising cookies | Expand information about the ads shown to each anonymous user—for example, storing display duration/frequency, interaction data or browsing patterns—to build an advertising-interest profile and thus show ads aligned with user interests. |
Third-party advertising cookies | In addition to advertising managed directly by the site, advertisers may serve ads through third-party “AdServers”. These third parties can store cookies sent by the site and access the data stored in them. |
