WHAT ARE COOKIES?
A cookie is a text file that a web server may save on the hard drive of your device to store certain information about you as a user. Cookies are used for various purposes, such as storing data for future visits, recognizing the user to avoid requesting authentication again, knowing which pages you visit, or saving your preferences in customizable areas… Websites normally use cookies to obtain statistical information about their web pages and to analyze the behavior of their customers/users.
Cookies used for any of the following purposes are exempt from compliance with the obligations set out in Article 22.2 of the LSSI (Spanish Information Society Services Act):
- Solely allowing communication between the user’s device and the network.
- Strictly providing a service expressly requested by the user.
Thus, the following are among the exempted cookies:
- “User input” cookies. These are stored on the device when the user enters information on a website, for example when filling out a web form.
- Authentication or user-identification cookies (session only). Their function is to identify a user when they enter their credentials to log in.
- User security cookies. These detect security problems or risks, for example, repeated failed connection attempts.
- Multimedia player session cookies. They allow multimedia content to be played on the websites the user visits — for example, videos that play automatically when entering a website.
- Load-balancing session cookies. They connect the website’s server and the user’s device so that information can be transmitted between them.
- User-interface customization cookies. These remember users’ preferences while browsing a website — for example, language or chosen browser.
- Certain plug-in cookies for exchanging social content, used when the user visits social networks through a website — for example, when sharing a website’s article on social networks.
The specific uses we make of these technologies are described in the following sections.
