COPISA BUSINESS GROUP (COPISA GROUP, hereinafter) has developed this policy to inform you what a cookie is, which ones we use on this website, and to help you manage them according to your interests.

Upon your first visit to our website, you are informed of the existence of both our own and third-party cookies, as well as this cookie policy. You can also configure the cookies you wish to install, depending on the different categories. You can consult our policy at any time at the bottom of the website via the "Cookie Policy" link .

1. WHAT IS A COOKIE? GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT COOKIES:

A cookie is a small text file that a website stores in a user's browser. Cookies facilitate website use and navigation and are essential for the functioning of the internet, providing countless advantages in the provision of interactive services.

Cookies are used, for example, to manage a user's session (reducing the number of times they have to enter their password) or to adapt the content of a website to their preferences, thus improving the user experience of the website.

Cookies can be "session" cookies, which are deleted once the user leaves the website that generated them, or "persistent" cookies, which remain on the user's computer until a specific date.

Likewise, cookies can be "first-party" or "third-party" cookies. The former are those sent to the user's computer from a computer or domain managed by GRUPO COPISA, while "third-party" cookies are those sent to the user's computer from a computer or domain managed by service providers contracted by GRUPO COPISA (for example, the web analytics service offered by Google).

Pixels can collect information such as the browser used, IP address, frequency and duration of visits, and track actions users take on the website (purchases added to the shopping cart, products purchased, or redirects to other websites, newsletter openings, actions that generate more visits and purchases, type of audience interested, etc.).

In addition to the use of tracking pixels or web beacons, we may use other user identification and tracking techniques known as fingerprinting. These techniques allow us to verify certain technical parameters of the device used by the user (such as the browser used, operating system, screen resolution, installed plugins and add-ons, font, IP address, language, time zone, etc.) and, when combined, allow for identification. This information will be used to track the user's activity and browsing and to create a profile.
