2. What types of cookies are there?

There are different types of cookies, depending on the service they provide.

Depending on the purpose for which the data collected through cookies is processed, we can distinguish between:

• Technical cookies: those that enable the user to navigate a website, platform, or application and use the various options or services available on it, such as, for example,  managing traffic and data communication, identifying the session, accessing restricted-access areas, remembering the items in an order, completing the purchase process for an order,  submit a registration or participation request for an event, use security features while browsing, store content for the streaming of videos or audio, or share content via social media.
• Personalization cookies: These are cookies that allow the user to access the service with certain general settings predefined based on a set of criteria on the user’s device, such as the language, the type of browser used to access the service, the regional settings from which the service is accessed, etc.
• Analytics cookies: These are cookies that allow the party responsible for them to track and analyze the behavior of users on the websites to which they are linked.  The information collected through this type of cookie is used to measure the activity of websites, applications, or platforms and to create browsing profiles of users of such sites, applications, and platforms, in order to make improvements based on the analysis of how users interact with the service.
• Advertising cookies: These are cookies that enable the most effective management of any advertising spaces that the publisher may have included on a website,  application, or platform from which the requested service is provided, based on criteria such as the content published or the frequency with which ads are displayed.
• Behavioral advertising cookies: These cookies enable the most effective management of any advertising spaces that the publisher may have included on a website, app, or platform through which the requested service is provided.  These cookies store information about user behavior obtained through the continuous observation of their browsing habits, which allows for the development of a specific profile to display advertising based on that profile.

3. How intrusive are they?

Depending on the type of cookies used, different types of data are collected, and therefore the level of intrusion varies. We can identify three levels of intrusion:

• Level 1 or non-intrusive cookies: These are cookies used for logging in on sites with registered users, shopping carts, display preferences, etc. They are inherent to the system, and blocking them would prevent you from using the requested services.(Technical, personalization)
• Level 2 or minimally intrusive: these are first-party cookies linked to third-party services, such as analytics and statistics. Examples include cookies used by Google Analytics or Yahoo Web Analytics. (analytics)
• Level 3 or moderately intrusive: cookies provided, managed, and used by third parties to collect data for advertising placements (banners) or social media content (social media plugins), which must be expressly authorized by the user. In the case of social media cookies, consent is given on the social media sites themselves. (Advertising, behavioral advertising)
