In compliance with Law 34/2002, dated July 11, 2002, on information society services and electronic commerce, following the guidelines of the Spanish Data Protection Agency and the provisions of the European Data Protection Regulation 2016/679 EC, PRELESO VENTURES SL. informs you that FENERS' websites and online services may use cookies.

1.- Concept of Cookies:

Cookies are small text files that are downloaded and stored on the terminal (computer/smartphone/tablet) of the user when accessing certain web pages and allow the Website to remember browsing preferences and navigate efficiently, making the interaction between the user and the Website faster and easier.

The information collected by cookies is anonymous and does not contain any sensitive information (such as name, address, or bank details) as no data that can personally identify the user is collected.

According to the EU directive, cookies that require the informed consent of the user are all but those of a technical nature and those necessary for the operation of the website or the provision of services expressly requested by the user.

Without your express consent (by activating cookies in your browser) FENERS will not link the stored data in the cookies with your personal data provided during the use of the Web.

 

2.- What cookies are used for:

The Website uses cookies or other information storage and retrieval devices to track user interactions with the products and services offered on the Website.

Cookies make it possible to use a user's browser, as well as the type of device from which the Website is accessed, and are used to facilitate the user's next visit and make the Website or applications more useful.

 

3.- Types of cookies used on the Web Site:

The Website uses the following types of cookies:

  • Depending on the entity that manages the domain from which the cookies are sent:
- Own cookies: they are sent to the user's terminal equipment from a computer or domain managed by the editor itself and from which the service requested by the user is provided.
- Third-party cookies: these are sent to the user's terminal equipment from a computer or domain that is not managed by the editor, but by another entity that processes the data obtained through the cookies.
  • Depending on the length of time they remain activated:

- Session cookies: these are a type of cookie designed to collect and store data while the user accesses a web page. They are usually used to store information that is only of interest to keep for the provision of the service requested by the user on a single occasion.

- Persistent cookies: these are a type of cookie in which the data remains stored in the terminal and can be accessed and processed for a period defined by the party responsible for the cookie, which can range from a few minutes to several years.

  • Depending on the purpose for which the data obtained through cookies are processed:

- Advertising Cookies: These are those that allow the management, in the most effective way possible, of advertising spaces that, where appropriate, the editor has included on a website, application, or platform from which provides the requested service based on criteria such as the edited content or the frequency at which the ads are displayed. They allow to offer advertising related to the interests of the User.

- Analytical Cookies: When the user enters the Website, through this tool, anonymous information is collected in a standard way about the user's browsing and behavior patterns.

Google Analytics enables cookies in the Website domain called: 

  • "__utma": is necessary for the operation of Google Analytics and has an expiration period of 2 years.
  • "__utmz": is used to perform the location of the visit, that is, from where and how the user has arrived at our website and expires after 6 months. 
  • "_Utmb": This cookie records the time of arrival to the page and expires 30 minutes after the last page view. It is automatically deleted when you change websites or close the browser. 
  • "_Utmc": The current javascript code used by Google Analytics does not require this cookie. Previously this cookie was used in conjunction with the _utmb cookie to determine whether or not a new session should be established for the user after more than 30 minutes on the same page. This cookie is still being written to ensure compatibility with websites where the old urchin.js tracking code is installed.
