Cookies policy

On the website https://www.plocan.eu (hereinafter, the Website) we use cookies to facilitate the relationship between visitors and our content and to enable us to compile statistics on the visitors we receive.

We inform you that we may use cookies in order to facilitate your navigation through the Website, distinguish you from other users, provide you with a better experience in the use of the Website, and identify problems in order to improve our Website.

What are cookies?
Cookies are small files that are recorded in the browser used by each visitor to our website so that the server can remember that user’s visit at a later date when they access our content again. This information does not reveal your identity or any personal data, nor does it access the content stored on your computer, but it does allow our system to identify you as a specific user who has visited the website before, viewed certain pages, etc. and it also allows us to save your personal preferences and technical information.

In compliance with Directive 2009/136/EC, implemented in our legislation by the second paragraph of Article 22 of the LSSI, following the guidelines of the AEPD, we proceed to inform you in detail of the use made of our website.

Cookies are then classified according to a number of categories. However, it should be noted that the same cookie may be included in more than one category.

Types of cookies according to the entity that manages them

  • Own cookies: These are those that are sent to the user’s terminal equipment from a computer or domain managed by the editor itself.
  • Third-party cookies: These are those that are sent to the user’s terminal equipment from a computer or domain that is not managed by the editor, but by another entity that processes the data.

Types of cookies according to the length of time they remain active

  • Session cookies: These are a type of cookie designed to collect and store data while the user accesses a web page.
  • Persistent cookies: These are a type of cookie in which the data remains stored in the terminal and can be accessed and processed for a period defined by the party responsible for the cookie, which can range from a few minutes to several years.

Types of cookies according to their purpose

  • Behavioural advertising cookies: These cookies allow the management, in the most effective way possible, of the advertising spaces that, where appropriate, the editor has included on a web page. These cookies store information on the behaviour of users obtained through continuous observation of their browsing habits, which allows a specific profile to be developed in order to display advertising based on the same.

The information collected through this type of cookies is used to measure the activity of the websites, in order to introduce improvements based on the analysis of the data on the use made by users of the service.

Currently, most browsers are set by default to block the installation of advertising or third-party cookies on your computer. The user can extend the restrictions of origin, preventing the entry of any type of cookie, or remove such restrictions, accepting the entry of any type of cookies. If you are interested in accepting advertising or third-party cookies, you can configure your browser accordingly.

If you do not want cookies to be saved in your browser or you prefer to receive information each time a cookie requests to be installed, you can configure your browsing options so that this is done. Most browsers allow cookies to be managed in 3 different ways:

  • Cookies are always rejected;
  • The browser asks whether the user wishes to install each cookie;
  • Cookies are always accepted;

Your browser may also include the ability to select in detail which cookies you want to be placed on your computer. In particular, the user can normally accept one of the following options:

  • Reject cookies from certain domains;
  • Reject third party cookies;
  • Accept cookies as non-persistent (they are deleted when the browser is closed);
  • Allow the server to create cookies for a different domain.

To allow, learn about, block or delete the cookies installed on your computer, you can do so by configuring the browser options installed on your computer.
