Cookie policy

1. What are cookies?


 

The E2M COUTH VISION SYSTEMS, S.L.U. website uses cookies. Cookies are files sent to a browser by a web server to record user activities on a certain webpage. Cookies’ primary purpose is to provide users with faster access to selected services. Moreover, Cookies personalise the services that the Website offers, facilitating and offering each user information of interest or that may be of interest to them, based on how they use the Services.

The Website uses Cookies to personalise and facilitate user browsing to the maximum. Cookies are only associated with an anonymous user and their computer, and do not provide references that would allow one to deduce the user’s personal data. The user may change their browser settings to notify and reject installation of Cookies sent by the Website without jeopardising the user’s possibilities of accessing the contents of said website. However, it should be stated that, in any event, the operational quality of the Website may decrease.

Registered users, users who register and users who login may benefit from more personalised services geared more toward their profile, thanks to the combination of data stored in the cookies with personal data used at the time of registration. These users expressly authorise their information to be used for the aforementioned purpose, this notwithstanding their right to reject or disable the use of cookies.

Additionally, the Website may know all services requested by users, such that they may facilitate or offer information suitable to each user’s tastes and preferences.

 

2. What are the types of cookies?


 

Based on how long they remain, Cookies can be divided into the following categories:

 

  • Session cookies: these first cookies expire when the user closes the browser.
  • Persistent cookies: these second cookies expire when the purpose they act for has been achieved (for example, for a user to remain identified in Services) or when manually deleted.

Depending on their Owner, these may be divided into the following categories:

 

  • Our own cookies: cookies sent to the user’s device from a device or domain managed by the publisher, from whence the service requested by the user is provided.
  • Third-party cookies: cookies sent to the user’s device from a device or domain that is not managed by the publisher, but rather by another entity that processes the data obtained through the cookies.

 

Moreover, depending on their Purpose, the Cookies may be classified as follows:

  • Performance cookies: this sort of Cookie remembers your preferences for the tools in the services, so you do not have to adjust service settings every time you visit. For example, this type includes:

 

1. Volume adjustments for video or sound players.

2. Video transmission speeds that are compatible with your browser.

  • Geo-location cookies: these Cookies are used to discover which country you are in when you request a service. This Cookie is totally anonymous and is only used to help guide the content to your location.
  • Login cookies: login Cookies are used when the user has registered or later logged in, and are used to identify them in services for the following purposes:

 

1. Keeping the user identified such that, if they close a service, at another time or on a different day, when the browser or computer returns to said service, it will remain identified, thus facilitating the user’s browsing without having to login again. This function can be disabled if the user clicks the “log out” function, such that this Cookie is deleted, and the next time the user accesses the service, they must log in to be identified.

 

2. Verify whether the user is authorised to access certain services; for example, to participate in a contest.

  • Analytical cookies: every time a user visits a service, a tool from an external supplier generates an analytical Cookie on the user’s computer. This Cookie, which is only created for this visit, will act to anonymously identify the visitor in future visits to the Website’s services. The main purposes are:

 

1. To provide anonymous identification of browsing users through the Cookie (identifies browsers and devices, not people), and thus obtain an approximate count of the number of visitors and their trends throughout time.

2. Anonymously identify the most-viewed, and therefore most attractive content to users.

3. Discover whether the user accessing the page is new or a repeat visitor.

4. Important: Unless the user decides to register for a Website service, the Cookie will never be associated with any personal data that might identify them. Said Cookies will only be used for statistical purposes that help to optimise the User experience on the site.

 

  • Behavioural advertising cookies: this type of Cookie provides further information on the ads shown to each anonymous user in Website services. Amongst other purposes, the duration or frequency of viewing of advertising positions is stored, along with interaction with said ads, and browsing patterns and/or behaviours of users, since this helps to form an advertising-interest profile. This provides for offering advertising in line with user interests.
  • Third-party advertising cookies: In addition to advertising managed by the Website in its Services, the Website offers advertisers the option to provide ads through third parties (“AdServers”). In this way, these third parties can store Cookies sent from the Website’s Services from User browsers, and access the data saved in them.
