Cookies are files that contain small pieces of data such as usernames and passwords, which are exchanged between the user’s computer or mobile device and the web server in order to identify specific users and improve their browsing experience.

They are used to store information when a user accesses various pages of a website or mobile application, or when the user returns to the website or mobile application at a later time.

There are two types of cookies used on our websites: Session Cookies and Persistent Cookies.

Session cookies are used only while navigating our website. They are stored in random access memory and are never written to the hard drive.

When the session ends, session cookies are automatically deleted. They also help the “back” button function properly and support third-party anonymizing plug-ins. These plug-ins are designed to work with specific browsers and help protect user privacy.

Persistent Cookies used on our websites remain on a computer indefinitely; however, many of them have an expiration date and are automatically removed when this date is reached. The expiration dates of this information have been declared through the Verbis system and are also included within this Policy.

Persistent cookies are mainly used for two purposes:

Authentication: These cookies track whether a user is logged in and under which username they are logged in. They also save login information so that users do not have to remember their passwords each time they visit the site.

Tracking: These cookies track multiple visits to our websites over time. For example, by using cookies, we track user visits as well as the pages and products viewed. This information allows us to recommend other products that may be of interest to visitors.

Regardless of your preference, your browser also allows you to delete cookie information from your device at any time.

The steps for managing and deleting the cookies we provide differ for each browser. These steps are explained in your browser’s help menu. Please remember to configure all browsers on your different devices (tablets, smartphones, computers, etc.). Below are the steps for managing cookies in the most commonly used browsers:
