1. WHAT IS A COOKIE?
Cookies are small text files that the website stores in the user’s browser to facilitate navigation of the page, and are therefore essential for the functioning of the Internet.
Cookies are used, for example, to validate web registrations (remember username and password), or options such as size, language, browser used; to analyse user habits and behaviour in order to improve the services offered, or to adapt the contents of a web page to the visitor’s preferences.
The former are deleted when the user leaves the website that generated them, while the latter remain on the user’s computer until a specific date.
Cookies can also be:
a. Own: managed by the domain to which the user accesses and from which he/she requests a specific service (in this case, domains owned by PINYSURP-96, S.L. as owner of the domain www.vinosvalencianos.com).
b. Third-party: sent to the user’s computer from a domain other than the one being accessed.
