What are cookies?

Cookies are small files that certain platforms, such as web pages, can install onto your computer, smartphone, tablet or smart TV. Their functions can be diverse: store your browsing preferences, compile statistical information, enable certain technical features, etc. Occasionally cookies are used to store very basic information about a user's PC or their browsing trends, and in certain cases to the point of being able to recognise them.

Why are they important?

Cookies are useful in many ways. From a technical point of view they allow websites to perform in a more agile manner that is also adapted to your preferences (such as storing the appropriate language or currency options). Additionally, thanks to any collected statistical data, those responsible for a website can improve the services the site offers. Finally, cookies permit any adverts we show to be more efficient, which in turn allows us to offer you several of our services free of charge.
