What are cookies?
Cookies are files that can be downloaded to your computer through websites. They are tools that play an essential role in providing numerous services of the information society. Among other things, they allow a website to store and retrieve information about the browsing habits of a user or their device and, depending on the information obtained, they can be used to recognize the user and improve the service offered.
Types of cookies
Depending on the entity that manages the domain from which the cookies are sent and treats the data obtained, two types can be distinguished:
- First-party cookies: Those sent to the user’s terminal from a computer or domain managed by the website’s editor and from which the requested service is provided to the user.
- Third-party cookies: Those sent to the user’s terminal from a computer or domain that is not managed by the website’s editor, but by another entity that processes the data obtained through cookies.
If cookies are installed from a computer or domain managed by the website’s editor but the information collected through them is managed by a third party, they cannot be considered as first-party cookies.
There is also a second classification based on the period of time they remain stored in the client’s browser, which can be:
- Session cookies: Designed to collect and store data while the user accesses a website. They are usually used to store information that is only relevant to provide the service requested by the user on a single occasion (e.g., a list of purchased products).
- Persistent cookies: The data remains stored on the device and can be accessed and processed during a period defined by the cookie’s controller, ranging from a few minutes to several years.
Finally, there is another classification with six types of cookies according to the purpose for which the data obtained is processed:
- Technical cookies: Those that allow the user to navigate through a website, platform, or application and use the different options or services available, such as controlling traffic and data communication, identifying the session, accessing restricted access parts, remembering the elements that make up an order, carrying out the process of purchasing an order, requesting registration or participation in an event, using security elements during navigation, storing contents for video or sound broadcasting, or sharing contents through social networks.
- Personalization cookies: Allow the user to access the service with certain predefined general characteristics based on a series of criteria in the user’s terminal, such as language, type of browser through which the service is accessed, regional configuration from which the service is accessed, etc.
- Analytical cookies: Allow the controller to track and analyze the behavior 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 the websites, application, or platform and to create navigation profiles of the users of said sites, applications, and platforms, in order to make improvements based on the analysis of usage data by users of the service.
- Advertising cookies: Allow the most efficient management of advertising spaces.
- Behavioral advertising cookies: Store information on user behavior obtained through continuous observation of their browsing habits, which allows the development of a specific profile to display advertising based on it.
- External social media cookies: Used so that visitors can interact with the content of different social platforms (Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn, etc.) and are generated only for users of these social networks. The conditions of use of these cookies and the information collected are regulated by the privacy policy of the corresponding social platform.
