WHAT TYPES OF COOKIES EXIST?
According to the entity that manages it:
First-party cookies: These are cookies 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: These are cookies that are sent to the user's terminal equipment from a computer or domain that is not managed by the publisher, but by another entity that processes the data obtained through the cookies.
Depending on the length of time they remain activated on the terminal equipment:
Session cookies: These are designed to collect and store data while a user is browsing a website. They are typically used to store information that is only needed to provide the service requested by the user on a single occasion (for example, a list of purchased products) and disappear when the session ends.
Persistent cookies: These are cookies in which the data remains stored on the terminal and can be accessed and processed for a period defined by the cookie owner, which can range from a few minutes to several years.
Depending on the purpose for which the data obtained through cookies is processed:
Technical cookies: These are cookies that allow the user to navigate through a website, platform or application and use the different options or services that exist on it, including those that the publisher uses to allow the management and operation of the website and enable its functions and services, such as, for example, controlling traffic and data communication, identifying the session, accessing restricted areas, remembering the items that make up an order, carrying out the purchase process of an order, managing payment, controlling fraud related to the security of the service, making the request for registration or participation in an event, counting visits for the purposes of billing licenses of the software with which the service (website, platform or application) works, using security elements during navigation, storing content for the dissemination of videos or sound, enabling dynamic content (for example, animation of loading a text or image) or sharing content through social networks. Also belonging to this category, due to their technical nature, are those cookies that allow the most efficient management of advertising spaces that, as another element of design or "layout" of the service offered to the user, the publisher has included on a website, application or platform based on criteria such as the edited content, without collecting information from users for other purposes, such as personalizing that advertising content or other content.
Preference or personalization cookies: these are cookies that allow information to be remembered so that the user can access the service with certain characteristics that may differentiate their experience from that of other users, such as, for example, language, the number of results to show when the user performs a search, the appearance or content of the service depending on the type of browser through which the user accesses the service or the region from which they access the service, etc...
Analytics or measurement cookies: These cookies allow the party responsible for them to track and analyze user behavior on the websites to which they are linked, including quantifying the impact of advertisements. The information collected through these cookies is used to measure website, application, or platform activity in order to make improvements based on the analysis of user data.
Advertising cookies: These are cookies that allow the most efficient management of 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 displayed or the frequency with which the ads are shown.
Behavioral advertising cookies: These cookies allow for the most effective management of advertising spaces that the publisher may have included on a website, application, or platform from which the requested service is provided. These cookies store information about user behavior obtained through continuous observation of browsing habits, allowing for the development of a specific profile to display advertising based on that profile.
