Be careful which cookies you disable

            We all share a legal obligation to inform users about the cookies used, because these cookie placements represent the processing of personal data.

            You also have the right to set preferences for the use of cookies on a particular website, and we respect these rights.

            However, given the functions and role played by these cookies, it is necessary to be very careful when disabling cookies and to do so only after you have fully understood their role.

            There are websites that will no longer work correctly or completely if you disable / reject all cookies used.

            We must inform you that disabling cookies does not necessarily mean that "we will get rid of advertising" but only that the user will no longer receive relevant advertising, i.e. advertising based on his preferences and interests, which could have been highlighted with the data collected by cookies from the user's browsing behavior. 

"Third party cookies" - Cookies placed by third parties

Some functionalities or sections of a website may exist on the site due to third parties providing such functionalities. They may place cookies through another site, because they are not placed by the owner of that site. Third party cookies: Facebook, Twitter, Linkdin etc.

            On certain pages, third parties may set anonymous sets of cookies, which aim to monitor a specific application, to customize it later or to track its performance, according to data collected anonymously. The site on which these cookies are placed cannot access these types of cookies because they do not belong on the site, but to the third party, just as no third party has access to the cookies of the reference site.

            Thus, when you access the share buttons on the website for their associated social network, your cookies will be processed by the respective social network, and not by the site from which you clicked on the button depicting the social network; the same happens when content is distributed on the site, on social networks, the site does not process cookies, but the social network on which the content was distributed does.
