General
SITELICON WEB PROJECTS S.L. informs users through this notice that it may use cookies while they browse the different screens and pages of the website.
When using our website, you expressly accept and authorise the use of cookies in accordance with our Privacy Policy.
What are cookies?
A cookie is a very small text file that a web server may store in a device’s browser to keep information about the user. It uniquely identifies the device and can be read only by the website that sent it.
A cookie is neither an executable file nor a program. It therefore cannot spread or contain a virus or other malicious software and cannot exceed 4,000 characters.
What are cookies used for?
Cookies remember user preferences such as language, country, login status, browser characteristics and information about use of our website.
By remembering these preferences, we do not need to ask for information such as your country on every visit. Knowing the operating system and browser used by the device also helps us provide a better browsing experience.
Cookies can help our website distinguish a returning visitor’s browser, save preferences set while browsing, personalise home pages, identify visited sections and retain selections in a shopping basket, among other functions.
SITELICON WEB PROJECTS S.L. may use cookies to recognise users who have accessed our website and offer a better, more personalised service. They may also provide the date and time of the last visit, measure traffic parameters and estimate the number of visits so that services and promotions can be adjusted more effectively.
Websites normally use cookies to obtain statistical information. We collect data about movements and use of our website as statistical, not personal, data.
Consent
When users first access our website, they will see a cookie banner or settings panel that lets them:
- Accept all cookies.
- Reject all cookies except those that are technically necessary.
- Configure cookies by type.
The legal basis for analytical and advertising cookies is the User’s consent under Article 6(1)(a) GDPR.
Types of cookies
Cookies may be classified by the entity that manages them, the time they remain active or their purpose. A single cookie may fall into more than one category.
By ownership
First-party cookies: sent to the user’s device from equipment or a domain managed by SITELICON WEB PROJECTS S.L.
Third-party cookies: sent to the user’s device from equipment or a domain not managed by the publisher, but by another entity that processes the data collected through the cookies.
By lifespan
Session cookies: collect data while the User browses the website.
Persistent cookies: remain stored on the device and may be accessed and processed for a period defined by the party responsible for the cookie, ranging from minutes to several years.
By purpose
Technical cookies: used internally and required for the website to work.
Analytical cookies: collect anonymous statistical information about user activity to optimise navigation and improve service.
Personalisation cookies: allow access with predefined general characteristics based on criteria such as language, browser type or regional settings.
Advertising cookies: enable the most effective management of advertising spaces included by the publisher according to criteria such as edited content or ad frequency.
Behavioural advertising cookies: manage advertising spaces and store information obtained by continuously observing browsing habits, making it possible to build a profile and display advertising based on it.
Purposes of cookies
Below is a list of cookies that may be found on our website and a brief description of their purpose. None retains personally identifying information about you. Some personalise your visit, some remember preferences and others provide visitor statistics.
SITELICON WEB PROJECTS S.L. uses local-storage technologies, meaning files created by the website on your browsing device. Cookies are one form of local storage, but others exist. Browser local storage may include “sessionStorage”, which is deleted automatically when the browser closes, and “localStorage”, which is removed by clearing browser history.
Your browser may also store information automatically, such as a history of pages visited, form data and passwords. Browsers may remember information entered in web forms, such as an email address, credit-card number or page password, so it does not have to be entered again.
The browser cache contains copies of previously visited pages to speed up later display. Browsing history, browser memory and cache are outside our control. Delete this information when using a device that does not belong to you, such as another person’s smartphone or a public computer.
