WHAT ARE COOKIES?
Cookies are small text files that websites you visit store in your browser. These files allow the website to remember information about your visit, such as your preferred language and other options, in order to facilitate your next visit and make the site more useful to you. Cookies play a very important role, as without them, using the Internet would be a much more frustrating experience.
Cookies are used for multiple purposes, from improving the user’s browsing experience to collecting statistical information that allows us to analyse visitor behaviour on our website and improve our services. In the context of a strategy and financial advisory consultancy like ours, cookies help us to offer you personalised and relevant content for your specific needs in terms of investment and financial planning.
TYPES OF COOKIES WE USE
Depending on the entity that manages them, cookies can be:
- First-party cookies**: These are those sent to the user’s terminal equipment from a computer or domain managed by the editor itself and from which the service requested by the user is provided.
- Third-party cookies**: These are those sent to the user’s terminal equipment from a computer or domain that is not managed by the editor, but by another entity that processes the data obtained through cookies.
Depending on the period of time they remain active:
- Session cookies**: These are temporary cookies that remain in your browser’s cookie file until you leave the website, so none are recorded on the user’s hard drive. The information obtained through these cookies is used to analyse traffic patterns on the web. In the long run, this allows us to provide a better experience to improve content and facilitate its use.
- Persistent cookies**: These are stored on the hard drive and our website reads them every time you make a new visit. A permanent cookie has a specific expiration date. The cookie will stop working after that date. We generally use these cookies to facilitate purchasing and registration services.
Depending on their purpose:
- Technical cookies**: These are those that allow the user to navigate through a website, platform or application and use the different options or services that exist in it, such as, for example, controlling traffic and data communication, identifying the session, accessing restricted access parts, remembering the elements that make up an order, carrying out the purchase process of an order, making the request for registration or participation in an event, using security elements during navigation, storing content for the dissemination of videos or sound or sharing content through social networks.
- Personalisation cookies**: These are those that allow the user to access the service with some general characteristics predefined based on a series of criteria in the user’s terminal, such as the language, the type of browser through which the service is accessed, the regional configuration from where the service is accessed, etc.
- Analysis cookies**: These are those that allow the party responsible for them to monitor and analyse the behaviour of users of the websites to which they are linked. The information collected through this type of cookies is used to measure the activity of websites, applications or platforms and to create browsing profiles of users of said sites, applications and platforms, in order to introduce improvements based on the analysis of the usage data made by users of the service.
- Advertising cookies**: These are those that allow the management, in the most effective way possible, of the advertising spaces that, where appropriate, the editor has included on a website, application or platform from which the requested service is provided based on criteria such as the edited content or the frequency with which the ads are shown.
- Behavioural advertising cookies**: These are those that allow the management, in the most effective way possible, of the advertising spaces that, where appropriate, the editor has included on a website, application or platform from which the requested service is provided. These cookies store information on the behaviour of users obtained through continuous observation of their browsing habits, which allows a specific profile to be developed to show advertising based on it.
