Asoc. Lanzarote Ireland Network hereby informs you of how cookies are used on its website: https://www.lanzaroteireland.com
What are cookies?
Cookies are files that may be stored on your computer by a website. They are tools that play a key role in the provision of various information society services. Among others, they allow a website to store and retrieve information regarding the browsing habits of a user or its computer and, depending on the information obtained, they may be used to recognise the user and improve the service offered.
Type of cookies
Depending on the entity that manages the domain from which the cookies are sent and that processes the data obtained, there are two distinct types of cookies:
Own Cookies: these cookies 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 cookies are sent to the user’s terminal equipment from a unit or domain that is not managed by the publisher, but rather from a third entity that processes the data obtained through cookies.
In the event when cookies are installed from a unit or domain managed by the publisher itself but the information collected through these cookies is managed by a third party, these cookies cannot be considered Own Cookies.
A second type of classification exists and it is based on the period of time that the cookies remain stored in the client’s browser. These cookies may be:
Session cookies: designed to collect and store data while the user is accessing a website. They are usually used to store information that is only relevant to the provision of the service requested by the user on a single occasion (e.g., a list of products purchased).
Permanent cookies: the data continue to be stored in the terminal and can be accessed and processed for a period defined by the entity responsible for the cookie, which can be from a few minutes to several years.
Finally, another five types of cookies exist and their classification is based on the purpose for which the data obtained are processed:
Technical Cookies: these cookies allow the user to browse a webpage, platform or application and to use the different options or services that exist therein, such as, for example, to control the traffic and the communication of data, identify the session, access restricted areas, remember elements that make up an order, apply to register for or participate in an event, use security elements during his browsing, store content for video or sound broadcasting or share content through social networks.
Personalisation cookies: these cookies allow the user to access the service through some general characteristics that are predefined according to a series of criteria in the user’s terminal, such as for example, language, type of browser through which the service is being accessed, the regional configuration from which the user accesses the service, etc.
Analytical cookies: these cookies allow the entities responsible for the cookies to follow and analyse the behaviour of users of the website to which they are linked. The information collected by means of this type of cookie is used to measure the activity of the websites, application or platform and to draw up navigation profiles of the users of these sites, applications and platforms, in order to introduce improvements based on the analysis of the usage data made by the users of the service.
Advertising Cookies: these cookies allow the management, in the most efficient way possible, of advertising spaces.
Behavioural advertising cookies: these cookies collect information over the behaviour of the users obtained through the continuous observation of their browsing habits, which allows them to develop a specific profile and show ads based on this same profile.
External social media cookies: these cookies are used so that visitors can interact with the content of the various social media platforms (Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn, etc.) and are generated only for users of said social media networks. The terms of use of these cookies and the information gathered is governed by the privacy policy of the corresponding social media platform.
