What are cookies?

Cookies are data about the user of a website that are stored on the user's computer, and the information is retrieved when you browse the same website again.

There are several types of cookies. Depending on who manages them, and on the device or domain from which the cookies are sent and which processes the data obtained, we can identify or distinguish between them:

First-party cookies: These are cookies sent to the user's terminal device from a device or domain managed by the publisher itself and from which the service requested by the user is provided.

Third-party cookies: These are cookies sent to the user's terminal device from a device or domain that is not managed by the publisher, but by another entity that processes the data obtained through the cookies.

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