What are cookies?

Cookies are a set of data that a server deposits in the user’s browser to collect standard Internet log information and information on the behaviour of visitors to a website. In other words, they are small text files that are stored on the computer’s hard drive and are used to identify the user when he/she logs on to the website again. Their purpose is to record the user’s visit and to store certain information. Their use is common and frequent on the web as they allow pages to function more efficiently and achieve greater personalisation and analysis of user behaviour.

What types of cookies are there?

The cookies used on our website are session and third party cookies. They allow us to store and access information relating to language, the type of browser used and other general characteristics predefined by the user. In the same way, they allow us to follow and analyse the activity carried out by the user, with the aim of introducing improvements and providing our services in a more efficient and personalised way.

Cookies, depending on their permanence, can be divided into session or permanent cookies, those that expire when the user closes the browser, and those that expire depending on when the purpose for which they are used is fulfilled (for example, for the user to remain identified in Finnova services) or when they are manually deleted.

Performance cookies

This type of cookie remembers your preferences for the tools found in the services, so you do not have to reconfigure the service each time the user visits the website. Examples include volume settings for video or sound players; video streaming speeds that are compatible with your browser; and items stored in the “shopping cart” in e-commerce or e-commerce services such as shops.

Geolocation cookies

These cookies are used to find out which country you are in when you request a service. This cookie is completely anonymous, and is only used to help target content to your location.

Registration cookies

Registration cookies are generated once the user has registered or subsequently logged in, and are used to identify you to the services for the following purposes:

To keep the user identified after closing the browser, service or computer, which facilitates the user’s experience. This functionality can be deleted if the user clicks on the “log out” functionality, so that this cookie is deleted and the next time the user logs in to the service they will have to log in to be identified.

Check whether the user is authorised to access certain services, for example, to participate in a competition.

Additionally, some services may use connectors with social networks such as Facebook or Twitter. When the user registers for a service with credentials from a social network, the user authorises the social network to store a persistent cookie that remembers the user’s identity and grants access to the services until it expires. The user can delete this cookie and revoke access to the services via social networks by updating their preferences on the specific social network.

Analytics cookies

Each time a user visits a service, a third-party tool generates an analytics cookie on the user’s computer. This cookie, which is only generated during the visit, will be used during future visits to Finnova’s services to anonymously identify the visitor. The main objectives pursued are:

To allow the anonymous identification of browsing users through the cookie (identifies browsers and devices, not people) and, therefore, the approximate counting of the number of visitors and their trend over time. Identify anonymously the most visited content and therefore more attractive to users Know whether the user who is accessing is new or repeat visit.

Important: unless the user decides to register for a Finnova service, the cookie will never be associated with any personal data that can identify the user. These cookies will only be used for statistical purposes to help optimise the user’s experience on the site.

Advertising cookies

This type of cookies allow to extend the information of the advertisements shown to each anonymous user in Finnova’s services. Among other things, they store the duration or frequency of viewing advertising positions, interaction with them or browsing patterns or user behaviour, as they help to form a profile of advertising interest. In this way, they make it possible to offer advertising related to the user’s interests.

Third-party advertising cookies

In addition to the advertising managed by the Finnova websites in their services, the Finnova websites offer their advertisers the option of serving advertisements through third parties (Ad-Servers). In this way, these third parties can store cookies sent by Finnova services from users’ browsers, as well as access the data stored in them.

The companies that generate these cookies have their own privacy policies. Finnova websites currently use the Doubleclick platform (Google) to manage these services. For more information, please go to
