WHAT ARE COOKIES?

Cookies are small data files that are received on the terminal from the website visited and are used to record certain browsing interactions on a website by storing data that can be updated and retrieved. These files are stored on the user's device and contain anonymous data that is not harmful to their equipment. They are used to remember the user's preferences, such as the selected language, access data or personalization of the website or App.

Cookies or storage devices have traditionally been associated with websites. However, they are currently used both on websites and on other types of platforms and applications (for example, Apps for smartphones and tablets).

Cookies can also be used to record anonymous information about how a visitor uses a site. For example, from which website/App they have accessed it, or if they have used an advertising "banner" to reach it.

Information society services may be provided by the publisher through a platform, computer application or a website/App that the user accesses from their terminal equipment.

WHY DO WE USE COOKIES?

We use our own and third-party cookies to analyse the use of the website and display advertising with preferences based on a profile created from the user's browsing habits.

Compraordenadores.es uses Technical and Analytical cookies for our website that will allow you to use secure areas, personalised options, etc. In addition, Compraordenadores.es uses cookies that collect data related to the analysis of website usage. These are used to improve the service to the user by measuring the use and performance of the website, to optimise and personalise it.

• Google Cookie, ANALYTICS: Google ANALYTICS is a free service offered by Google Inc. that collects information about the pages of the website consulted, at what time, which web browser, etc. This information is then sent to the servers of Google Inc.

HOW DO WE USE THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF COOKIES?

According to 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. For example, those that serve to maintain the session, manage the response time, performance or validation of options, use security elements and share content.

• Preference or personalization cookies: These are those that allow information to be remembered so that the user accesses the service with certain characteristics that can differentiate their experience from that of other users, such as, for example, the language, the number of results to be displayed when the user performs a search, the appearance or content of the service depending on the type of browser through which the user accesses the service or the region from which they access the service, etc.

• Analysis or measurement cookies (analytics): These are those that allow the person responsible for them to monitor and analyze the behavior of the users of the websites or Apps to which they are linked, including the quantification of the impacts of the advertisements. The information collected through this type of cookies is used to measure the activity of the websites, application or platform, in order to introduce improvements based on the analysis of the data on the use made by users of the service.

• Advertising/advertising cookies: These are those that, processed by the administrator of the App or by third parties, allow us to analyse your browsing habits on the Internet so that we can show you advertising related to your browsing profile. Advertising cookies allow the management of advertising spaces based on specific criteria.

These are those that store information on the behaviour of users obtained through the continuous observation of their browsing habits, which allows the development of a specific profile to show advertising based on it.

Type of cookies according to the period of time they will remain active:

• Session cookies: These are those designed to collect and store data while the user accesses a website/App. They are usually used to store information that is only of interest to keep for the provision of the service requested by the user on a single occasion (for example, a list of products purchased) and they disappear at the end of the session.

• Persistent cookies: These are cookies in which the data remains stored on the terminal and can be accessed and processed for a period defined by the person responsible for the cookie, which can range from a few minutes to several years. In this regard, it should be specifically assessed whether the use of persistent cookies is necessary, since the risks to privacy could be reduced by using session cookies. In any case, when persistent cookies are installed, it is recommended to reduce their duration to the minimum necessary, taking into account the purpose of their use.

There are two legal obligations imposed by the regulations: the obligation of transparency and the obligation to obtain the explicit consent of the website user.

Depending on the nature of your business activity, the business model you develop and the scope of your responsibility, it is recommended to carry out a review of the cookies you use, either internally or with the advice of specialized entities. This review will aim to identify the cookies that are being used, analysing whether they are first-party or third-party cookies, session or persistent cookies, and specifying their function in order to decide whether or not they are within the scope of application of article 22.2. Taking into account the possible changes that may occur in the management and use of cookies, it is advisable to periodically carry out this review in order to update the information available on these cookies. In any case, it is recalled that the solutions implemented to comply with the obligations of art. 22.2 of the LSSI should be technologically neutral and, therefore, should be solutions that most browsers recognise.

LINK FOR THE IDENTIFICATION OF COOKIES:
