In compliance with Law 34/2002 of July 11, on Information Society Services and Electronic Commerce (LSSICE), we inform you that this website, User’s Blog!, uses cookies.

LSSICE applies to any type of file or device downloaded to a user’s terminal equipment for the purpose of storing data that can be updated and retrieved by the entity responsible for its installation. A cookie is one such widely used file, which we will generically refer to as cookies.

Cookies are small text files sent to a browser by a web server to record a user’s activity on a website, enabling the retrieval of that information later while browsing different pages connected to the server that installed them.

Cookies typically store technical information, personal preferences, content customization, usage statistics, links to social networks, access to user accounts, and more.

Types of Cookies

Below is a classification of cookies based on various criteria. However, it’s worth noting that a single cookie can fall into multiple categories.

Based on the entity that manages them:

  • First-party cookies: Sent to the user’s terminal from a device or domain managed by the website editor and used to provide the requested service.
  • Third-party cookies: Sent to the user’s terminal from a device or domain not managed by the editor but by another entity that processes data obtained through the cookies.
    • If cookies are installed from a device or domain managed by the editor but the information is managed by a third party, they are not considered first-party cookies.

Based on the duration of activity:

  • Session cookies: Designed to collect and store data while the user accesses a web page. They are typically used to store information only necessary for the requested service during a single session (e.g., a list of purchased items).
  • Persistent cookies: Data remains stored on the terminal and can be accessed and processed for a defined period by the cookie’s manager, ranging from minutes to several years.

Based on their purpose:

  • Technical cookies: Allow the user to navigate a website, platform, or application and utilize its features, such as traffic control, session identification, access to restricted areas, remembering items in a cart, completing purchase processes, participating in events, or sharing content via social networks.
  • Personalization cookies: Enable the user to access the service with predefined general features based on criteria in the user’s terminal, such as language, browser type, or regional settings.
  • Analytics cookies: Enable the responsible party to track and analyze user behavior on linked websites. Information collected by these cookies is used to measure website activity and create user navigation profiles to introduce improvements based on usage data.
  • Advertising cookies: Facilitate the most efficient management of advertising spaces included on a website, application, or platform, based on factors like content or ad display frequency.
  • Behavioral advertising cookies: Store user behavior information obtained from continuous observation of browsing habits, allowing the creation of specific profiles for targeted advertising.
