The website owned and operated by E CUBED SYSTEMS S. L (hereinafter “the website” or the “website”) uses cookies and/or similar technologies that store and retrieve information when you browse. In general, these technologies can be used for a variety of purposes, such as, for example, to recognise you as a user, obtain information about your browsing habits, or personalise the way in which content is displayed.
The user may configure their browser to notify and reject the installation of cookies sent by the website, without this affecting the possibility of accessing the contents of said website, but the quality of the website’s operation may be reduced.
The specific uses we make of these technologies are described below.
2. What types of cookies are there?
Cookies, depending on their permanence, can be divided into:
| Session cookies | These are those that are to collect and store data while the user accesses a website. They are typically used to store information that is only of interest to preserve for the requested service. They expire when the user closes th |
| Persistent Cookies | These cookies keep data stored on the user’s device and can be accessed and processed for a defined period based on when the purpose they service is fulfilled (eg keeping the user identified in the Services) or until manually deleted. |
Depending on their Owner, they can be divided into:
| Own Cookies | These are those that are sent to the user’s terminal equipment from a computer or domain managed by the publisher itself and from which the service requested by the user is provided. |
| Third party cookies | Cookies are those that are sent to the user’s terminal equipment from a computer or domain that is not managed by the editor, but by another entity that processes the data obtained through the cookies. |
Additionally, depending on their purpose, Cookies can be classified as follows:
| Technical cookies | They are those that allow the user to browse through a website, platform or application and use the different options or services that exist on it, including those that the editor uses to allow the management and operation of the website and enable its functions and services such as, for example, identifying the session or controlling traffic and data communication. | |
| Preference or personalisation cookies | This type of Cookie remembers your preferences for the tools found in the services, so you do not have to reconfigure the service each time you visit. By way of example, this type of cookie includes: | |
Volume settings of video or sound players. | ||
Video bitrates that are compatible with your browser. | ||
| Cookies from Geo-location | These Cookies are used to find out which country you are in when you request a service. This Cookie is completely anonymous, and is only used to help target content to your location. |
| Registration Cookies | Registration Cookies are generated once the user has registered or subsequently logged in, and are used to identify you in the services for the following purposes: | |
To keep the user identified so that, if he/she closes a service, the browser or the computer and at another time or on another day re-enters the service, he/she will continue to be identified, thus facilitating navigation without having to identify him/herself again. This functionality can be deleted if the user clicks on the “close session” function, so that this Cookie is deleted and the next time the user enters the service he/she will have to log in to be identified. | ||
Check whether the user is authorised to access certain services, e.g. to participate in a competition. | ||
| Analysis or measurement cookies | Each time a User visits a service, a tool from an external provider generates an analytical Cookie on the User’s computer. This Cookie, which is only generated during the visit, will be used in future visits to the Web Services to anonymously identify the visitor. The main objectives pursued are: | |
Allow anonymous identification of browsing users through the “Cookie” (identifies browsers and devices, not people) and therefore the approximate counting of the number of visitors and their trend over time. | ||
Identify anonymously the most visited and therefore most attractive content for users. | ||
To know if the user accessing the site is new or a repeat visitor. | ||
Important: Unless the user decides to register for a Web service, the “Cookie” will never be associated with any personal data that can identify him/her. These Cookies will only be used for statistical purposes to help optimise the User’s experience on the site. | ||
| Cookies from behavioural advertising | This type of “Cookies” allows to extend the information of the advertisements shown to each anonymous user in the Web Services. Among others, the duration or frequency of viewing advertising positions, the interaction with them, or the user’s browsing and/or sharing patterns are stored, as they help to create a profile of advertising interest. In this way, they make it possible to offer advertising related to the user’s interests. |
| Third party advertising cookies | In addition to the advertising managed by the Site on its Services, the Site offers advertisers the option to serve ads through third party advertisers (“AdServers”). In this way, these third parties can store Cookies sent from the Web Services from Users’ browsers, as well as access the data stored in them. |
