What types of cookies are there?
Cookies can be divided into session or permanent cookies based on how long they are enabled:
- Session cookies: they gather and store data while you are browsing a website and are deleted when the browser is closed. They are normally used to store information which is only needed to provide a service you ask for on a single occasion.
- Persistent cookies: the data remain stored on your device for a specified period of time, making it easier to check the preferences you have chosen without having to repeat certain parameters each time you visit the website.
Cookies can also be classified as first-party or third-party depending on the organisation managing them:
- First-party cookies: they are sent to your device from a domain or terminal managed by their publisher and which provides the service you have asked for.
- Third-party cookies: they are sent to your device from a computer or domain which is not managed by their publisher but rather by another organisation which processes the data gathered via the cookies.
By their purpose, cookies can be:
- Technical cookies: they can be used to monitor traffic and data communication.
- Personalisation cookies: they enable you to access the site with your previously specified personal features (browser, language, etc.).
- Analytics cookies: they allow their controller to track and analyse your behaviour on websites and profile you.
- Advertising cookies: they collect data on the management of advertising on the website
