COOKIE POLICY
1.- BACKGROUND
In accordance with Spanish regulations governing the use of cookies in relation to the provision of electronic communication services, as set out in Article 22.2 of Law 34/2002 of July 11, on Information Society Services and Electronic Commerce (LSSICE), we hereby inform you about the cookies used on the BORDAGROUP SL website and the purpose of their use.
2.- WHAT ARE COOKIES?
A cookie is a file that is downloaded to your device when you access certain web pages. Cookies allow a website, among other things, to store and retrieve information about a user’s browsing habits or their device, and depending on the information they contain and how the device is used, they may be used to recognize the user. Cookies are associated only with an anonymous user and their device, and do not provide references that allow personal data to be known.
3.- TYPES OF COOKIES
3.1.- According to the entity that manages them
First-party cookies: These are sent to the user’s terminal from a device or domain managed by the website owner and from which the service requested by the user is provided.
Third-party cookies: These are sent to the user’s terminal from a device or domain not managed by the website owner, but by another entity that processes the data obtained through cookies.
3.2.- According to their purpose
There are many reasons to use cookies. Based on the purpose for which the data obtained through cookies is processed, some of the purposes may include:
Technical cookies: These allow the user to browse a website, platform, or application and use the different options or services available, including those used by the website owner to manage and operate the site and enable its functions and services, such as controlling traffic and data communication, identifying the session, accessing restricted areas, remembering items in an order, processing the purchase of an order, managing payment, controlling fraud related to service security, registering or participating in events, counting visits for software license billing purposes, using security elements during navigation, storing content for video or audio dissemination, enabling dynamic content (e.g. text or image loading animations), or sharing content on social networks.
Technical cookies are exempt from the obligations established in Article 22.2 of the LSSICE when they enable the service explicitly requested by the user, as with the examples listed above. However, if these cookies are also used for non-exempt purposes (e.g. behavioral advertising), they will be subject to the corresponding obligations.
Preference or personalization cookies: These allow information to be remembered so the user can access the service with certain characteristics that may differentiate their experience from that of other users, such as language, the number of results displayed when performing a search, the appearance or content of the service based on the type of browser, or the region from which the service is accessed.
If the user personally chooses these features (e.g. by selecting a language from a country flag icon), these cookies are considered a service expressly requested by the user and are exempt from the obligations under Article 22.2 of the LSSICE, as long as the cookies are used exclusively for the chosen purpose.
Analytics or measurement cookies: These allow their owner to track and analyze user behavior on linked websites, including measuring the effectiveness of advertisements. Information collected through this type of cookie is used to measure website, application, or platform activity in order to improve the service based on user usage data.
Behavioral advertising cookies: These store information about users’ behavior obtained through continuous observation of their browsing habits, which allows a specific profile to be developed to display advertising based on it.
3.3.- According to the time they remain active
Session cookies: These are designed to collect and store data while the user accesses a website. They are typically used to store information needed to provide a service requested by the user on a single occasion (e.g. a list of purchased products) and disappear once the session ends.
Persistent cookies: These store data on the user’s device and can be accessed and processed for a period defined by the cookie owner, which may range from a few minutes to several years.
