What types of Cookies are there?

There are many types of Cookies. Below, we offer the User some classifications of Cookies, without necessarily implying that this Website uses all of these types of Cookies:

  • Depending on the entity that manages the Cookies:
    • Own Cookies: are those that are sent to the User's device or terminal from the equipment or domain belonging to the owner of a service and managed by it.

    • Third-party Cookies: are those that are sent to the User's device or terminal from a computer or domain that is not managed by the owner of a service, but by a third party that will process the information obtained through Cookies.

  • Depending on the time of conservation:
    • Session Cookies: are those that collect and store data when the User accesses a service and cease once the User leaves the service.
    • Persistent Cookies: are those that have a duration determined in time by the person responsible for the service. The conservation time can vary from a few minutes to several years. They are used to store and retrieve certain parameters each time the User visits a service.
  • According to their purpose:
    • Technical Cookies: are those essential and strictly necessary for the proper functioning and use of the different options or services offered by those responsible for it. For example, those used for session maintenance, response time management, performance or validation of options, use of security elements, etc.
    • Personalization Cookies: are those that allow the User to specify or customize some features of a service. For example, language definition, regional settings or browser type.
    • Analytical Cookies: are those that allow to count the number of unique visitors and perform an analysis of the use of a service to measure the interest of this or certain areas of it. For example, analytical Cookies could be used to control which geographical areas the highest percentage of users come from, which is the most popular product or service, etc.
    • Advertising Cookies: are those that allow the management of advertising space in a service.
    • Behavioral advertising Cookies: are those that allow the management of advertising space in a service. The function of these Cookies is to store information on the behavior of the Users of a service, in order to subsequently display personalized advertising.
  • Other technologies:
    • Pixels, web bugs or trackers: also known as tracking pixels, pixel tags or conversion pixels or web beacons. They are tiny 1×1 pixel transparent images that are inserted into a service in order to perform activity measurements. Once a particular page of the service is loaded in a browser, the image is loaded and this data can be measured. Tracking pixels generally make it possible to track the path taken by a given User IP in an online service.
    • HTML5 storage: it consists in using the possibilities of HTML5 technology to store in the User's browser certain parameters that can be used to identify the User's browser.
    • Local Shared Objects (LSO): also known as "flash Cookies". This is the storage of information without Cookies on the User's computer, using Adobe Flash Player technology.
    • Etags: it is a mechanism of the HTTP protocol that allows the validation of the cache that the User saves in his browser of a website. This technology is mainly used to save bandwidth, avoiding duplicate content downloads. However, it can also be used to recognize the User's browser.
    • Canvas fingerprinting: it consists of creating a unique form in the User's browser that uses HTML5 web standard technology to identify the User's computer.
    • Source identification: this technique consists in identifying the source configuration of the user's devices in order to obtain a unique identification of the devices.
    • Browser cache: as its name suggests, this technique consists of storing information in the browser cache.
    • WebGL: this technique makes it possible to use the 3D rendering capabilities of modern browsers to obtain a unique identification of the devices, since each device is configured differently.
