What are cookies?

Cookies are small, widely-used files or devices that are installed on the user’s browser in order to store, retrieve or update data. They enable a website administrator to record user preferences when browsing the website and customise the services offered based on those preferences.

At www.educaclima.com we only use third-party cookies in an anonymous manner to enable us to perform usage analysis and measurement to ensure that our websites are working properly and to improve their content.

The third-party cookies that we use on www.educaclima.com to obtain information on visits, measure and analyse web browsing and personalise some services are owned by Google Universal Analytics, which collects this data by anonymising the IP addresses of users. We also use a Windows Azure technical cookie that does not collect data.

Types of cookies

Depending on their purpose, cookies can be:

  • Technical cookies: necessary for browsing. Without them the website would not work properly (“user input” cookies for online shopping carts, multimedia player session cookies, etc.).
  • Customisation or configuration cookies: these enable the web page to recognise the user’s language, the font size, etc.
  • Security cookies: these prevent or hinder attacks against the website or its users.
  • Analytics cookies: these enable user activity to be measured and browsing statistics to be compiled.
  • Advertising cookies: these manage the frequency and content of the ads.
  • Behavioural advertising cookies: these store information on the users to display customised advertising.
