Like other websites, www.cortichapa.es uses a technology called “cookies” to collect information about the use of our website. In compliance with current legislation, Cortichapa wishes to inform the User clearly and completely about everything related to the use of cookies.
WHAT ARE COOKIES?
A cookie is a file that is downloaded to the User’s terminal equipment or device (computer, mobile phone or tablet) when the User accesses certain web pages. Cookies allow a website, among other things, to store and retrieve information about the browsing habits of a user or their equipment and, depending on the information they contain and the way in which their equipment is used, they can be used to recognise the User. The use of cookies is nowadays standard on most websites.
We inform you, however, of the possibility that the deactivation of a cookie may prevent or hinder browsing or the provision of the services offered on the Website.
WHAT ARE COOKIES USED FOR ON THIS WEBSITE?
We use our own and third-party cookies to improve our services, personalise our website, make browsing easier for our users, provide them with a better experience when using the website, identify problems and thus be able to improve it, make measurements and usage statistics and show them advertising related to their preferences by analysing the use of the website.
TYPES OF COOKIES
According to the entity that manages them
- Own cookies: these are those that are sent to the User’s terminal equipment from a computer or domain managed by the Website editor itself and from which the service requested by the User is provided.
- Third-party cookies: these are those that are sent to the User’s terminal equipment or device from equipment or a domain that is not managed by the Website editor, but by another entity that processes the data obtained through the cookies. In the event that the cookies are installed from a computer or domain managed by the Website editor itself, but the information collected through them is managed by a third party, they cannot be considered as own cookies.
Depending on the length of time they remain activated
- Session cookies: these are cookies that remain on the User’s terminal or device only during their browsing session. They are therefore deleted when the browser is closed.
- Persistent cookies: these are cookies that remain on the User’s terminal equipment or device even after their session, and can be accessed and processed for a certain period of time, which can range from a few minutes to several years (unless they are deleted by the User).
Depending on their purpose, cookies can be:
- Technical: These are those necessary for browsing and the proper functioning of our website. They allow, for example, to control traffic and data communication, access restricted areas, use security elements, store content in order to broadcast videos or share content through social networks.
- Functional or personalisation: these allow the user to access the service with some predefined general characteristics depending on a series of criteria in the User’s terminal or device, such as the language, the type of browser used to access the service, etc. They also allow the website to remember choices made by the visitor (such as changes in text size, or personalised pages) or activate services such as blog comments.
- Analysis: These are those that are well treated by Cortichapa or third parties, allow us to quantify the number of users and perform the measurement and statistical analysis of the use made by users of our website. For it we analyse the navigation in our web page in order to improve the offer of products or services that we offer.
- Performance cookies: these are cookies that record website usage information, such as pages visited and error messages; they do not record personally identifiable information and the information collected is aggregated in an anonymous form. These cookies are used to improve how the website works.
- Advertising: these are those that allow the management, in the most efficient way possible, of the advertising spaces on the Website, based on criteria such as the edited content or the frequency at which the advertisements are shown.
- Behavioural advertising: these are those that allow the management, in the most efficient way possible, of the advertising spaces on the Website, storing information on the User’s behaviour obtained through the continuous observation of their browsing habits, which allows the development of a specific profile to display advertising based on the same.

DISABLE COOKIES
Users may, at any time, allow, block or delete the cookies installed on their equipment by modifying the configuration parameters of the browser installed on their terminal equipment:
