1. What is a cookie?
Cookies are small text files or pieces of information that are stored on your computer or mobile device (such as smartphones or tablets) when you visit websites. As a general rule, a cookie contains the name of the website of its origin, as well as a "lifetime" (i.e., how long the cookie will remain active on the device).
In this sense, we can also find Cookies called session cookies and persistent cookies. Their difference is that session cookies are temporary cookies, where their lifetime ends when the user closes the browser. On the other hand, persistent cookies are cookies with a longer lifetime that remain on the device for a longer period of time, until the user manually deletes them, or depending on their duration or specificity, other types of cookies can be found.
2. What are cookies used for?
Cookies can have different functions and purposes, they can be only for the operation of the website, thus optimizing navigation, improving its performance, or they can be for advertising purposes, where advertisements of possible interest to the user are subsequently placed, or for direct marketing purposes.
In our case, we use Cookies to improve the functioning of the website, as well as to facilitate contact with our customers / users, so that we can better serve their needs.
What type(s) of cookies do we use and for what purpose(s)?
On the AEI24 website, we only store cookies for statistical purposes, so that through Google Analytics or other statistical tool we can be aware of the visits made to the website, as well as understand where we have more influx of customers / users.
4. Operations related to data processing.
On the other hand, in accordance with European regulations related to the RGPD (General Data Protection Regulation), all data provided by customers or acquired through any established contact, in the event that these are retained in our database for a limited time of 1 year, will only be used for the relationship between AEI24 and the customer, as happened with the cookies on the website. After that time, they will also be destroyed.
In addition, AEI24 undertakes not to misuse its customers' data, such as illegal selling to databases for marketing purposes by third parties.
