Registration Cookies
Registration Cookies are generated once the user has registered or has subsequently opened their session, and are used to identify the user with regards to services for the following purposes:
-
- To keep the user logged in so that, if a service is closed and reopened at a later date, the user will remain logged in, thus facilitating navigation without having to log in again. This feature can be deleted if the user clicks the “close session” button, so that this Cookie is deleted and the next time you enter the service the user will have to log in.
- To check whether the user is authorised to access certain services, for example, to participate in a contest.

-
- To allow the anonymous identification of the users via the “Cookie” (it identifies browsers and devices, not people) and therefore tracks the approximate number of visitors and how long they tend to spend on the site.
- To anonymously identify the most visited content to ascertain which content is more attractive to users.
- To know if the user who is accessing the content is new or visits repeatedly.
- Important: Unless the user decides to register for a Website service, the “Cookie” will never be associated with any personal data that can identify the user. These Cookies will only be used for statistical purposes that help to optimise the experience of Users on the site.
