Cookies Policy

Terms and Legal Conditions

SEPPELEC S.L informs about the use of cookies on its website: Seppelec.com and all its subdomains.

What are cookies?

Cookies are files that can be downloaded to your device through web pages. They are tools that play an essential role in providing numerous services in the information society. Among other things, they allow a website to store and retrieve information about a user’s or device’s browsing habits, and based on the obtained information, they can be used to recognize the user and improve the service offered.

Types of Cookies

Depending on the entity managing the domain from which the cookies are sent and processing the data collected, two types can be distinguished:

  • First-party cookies: These are sent to the user’s device from a computer or domain managed by the publisher and from which the requested service is provided.
  • Third-party cookies: These are sent to the user’s device from a computer or domain not managed by the publisher but by another entity that processes the data obtained through cookies.

If cookies are installed from a device or domain managed by the publisher, but the information collected through them is managed by a third party, they cannot be considered as first-party cookies.

There is also a second classification based on the time they remain stored in the user’s browser:

  • Session cookies: Designed to collect and store data while the user accesses a webpage. These are typically used to store information only relevant for providing the service requested by the user on a single occasion (e.g., a list of purchased products).
  • Persistent cookies: Data remains stored on the device and can be accessed and processed for a period defined by the cookie manager, which can range from minutes to several years.

Finally, there is another classification based on the purpose of the data obtained:

  • Technical cookies: These allow the user to browse a website, platform, or application and use the different options or services, such as controlling traffic and data communication, identifying the session, accessing restricted areas, remembering items in an order, completing the purchasing process, registering for an event, using security features during browsing, storing content for videos or sound, or sharing content through social networks.
  • Personalization cookies: These allow the user to access the service with some predefined general characteristics based on various criteria on the user’s device, such as language, browser type, or regional configuration.
  • Analytics cookies: These allow the cookie manager to track and analyze the behavior of users on the websites to which they are linked. The information collected by this type of cookie is used to measure website activity and create browsing profiles for users to introduce improvements based on the analysis of the usage data.
  • Advertising cookies: These allow the most efficient management of advertising spaces.
  • Behavioral advertising cookies: These store information about user behavior obtained through continuous observation of their browsing habits, enabling the creation of a specific profile to show relevant advertising.
  • External social media cookies: These are used so that visitors can interact with content from different social platforms (e.g., Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn). These cookies are generated only for users of those social networks. The terms of use and the information collected are governed by the privacy policy of the respective social platform.
