Definition
A cookie is a file that is downloaded to your computer/smartphone/tablet when accessing certain web pages. Cookies allow a website, among other things, to store and retrieve information about a user’s browsing habits or their equipment and, depending on the information they contain and the way you use your device, they can be used to recognize the user.
One classification that can be made of cookies is based on their purpose, so we have several types:
- Technical Cookies: These allow the user to navigate through a website, platform, or application and use the different options or services that exist in it, such as controlling traffic and data communication, identifying the session, accessing restricted access parts, remembering the items that make up an order, carrying out the purchasing process of an order, making a request for registration or participation in an event, using security elements during navigation, storing content for video or sound broadcasting, or sharing content through social networks.
- Personalization Cookies: These allow the user to access the service with some general predefined characteristics based on a series of criteria on the user’s terminal, such as the language, the type of browser through which they access the service, the regional configuration from which they access the service, etc.
- Analysis Cookies: These allow the person responsible for them to monitor and analyze the behavior of users of the websites to which they are linked. The information collected through this type of cookie is used to measure the activity of websites, applications, or platforms and to create navigation profiles of the users of these 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 allow the management, in the most efficient way possible, of the advertising spaces that, where appropriate, the editor has included on a website, application, or platform from which it provides the requested service based on criteria such as the edited content or the frequency with which ads are displayed.
- Behavioral Advertising Cookies: These allow the management, in the most efficient way possible, of the advertising spaces that, where appropriate, the editor has included on a website, application, or platform from which it provides the requested service. These cookies store information on the behavior of users obtained through continuous observation of their browsing habits, which allows the development of a specific profile to display advertising based on it.
