What are cookies?
Cookies are portions of code (computer files or partial data) sent by a server to the user's internet browser, automatically stored on the user’s computer, and automatically sent back to the server on each subsequent access to the site. A cookie typically contains the name of the website it came from, its lifespan (how long it will remain on the user’s device), and a value, usually a randomly generated unique number.

Each time the user visits the website again, cookies are sent back to the originating website (first-party cookies) or to another website that recognizes them (third-party cookies). Cookies are useful because they allow a website to recognize a user's device and serve various functions, such as enabling efficient navigation between pages, remembering user preferences, and generally improving the browsing experience. They also help ensure that the advertising content displayed is more relevant to the user and their interests.

If the user chooses to disable cookies, this may affect or limit their browsing experience on the site. For example, some sections of the site may not be accessible, or personalized information may not be available.

How do cookies work and how can they be deleted?
The methods for managing and disabling cookies can be adjusted by changing your internet browser settings. Most internet browsers are initially set to automatically accept cookies, but users can change these settings to block cookies or to be notified whenever cookies are sent to their device.

There are various ways to manage cookies. Please refer to your browser’s help guide or instruction manual to learn how to adjust or change your settings. Users can change the default configuration and disable cookies (i.e., block them permanently) by setting the highest level of protection.

If users access the website using different devices (e.g., computers, smartphones, tablets), they must ensure that each browser on each device is configured according to their cookie preferences.

What types and categories of cookies does La Cordata scs use, and for what purposes?

The Website uses different types of cookies, each with a specific function. La Cordata scs uses cookies to make the Website easier to use and to better tailor the Website and its products to users’ interests and needs.

Furthermore, La Cordata scs uses cookies to compile anonymous aggregated statistics that help understand how users interact with the Website and improve its structure and content.

Below is an explanatory list.


Technical Cookies
"Technical" cookies are essential for the proper functioning of the Website and allow users to browse and use its features (e.g., storing previous actions or saving the user’s session and other functions necessary for the Website to work).

This category also includes "analytical" cookies, which help La Cordata scs understand how users interact with the Website by providing information such as the last page visited, the number of sections and pages visited, time spent on the Website, and any issues encountered during navigation (e.g., error messages). These cookies help identify any difficulties users face while using the Website. This information may be linked to user details such as IP address, domain, or browser; however, it is analyzed collectively with information from other users in such a way that individual users cannot be identified. These cookies are collected and aggregated anonymously and help improve the Website’s performance.

Functionality cookies allow the Website to remember user choices (such as username) to provide a more personalized and optimized browsing experience. While these cookies are not essential for the functioning of the Website, they enhance its quality and user experience. If these cookies are not accepted, the Website’s performance and functionality may be reduced, and access to some content may be limited.


Profiling Cookies
"Targeting" or "profiling" cookies are used to display content more relevant to the user and their interests. They may be used to display targeted advertising or personalized ads based on user preferences or to limit the number of times a particular ad is shown. They also help measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns on the Website.

Social sharing cookies (or social network cookies) are required to allow users to interact with the Website through their social media accounts—for example, to "like" or share content with their social contacts.

La Cordata scs uses—or may use in combination—the following cookie types:

  • Session cookies, which are stored on the user's computer for technical and functional needs and are used for secure and efficient site navigation. These cookies are deleted at the end of the browsing session (hence the name) when the browser is closed.
  • Persistent cookies, which remain stored on the user's hard drive until they expire or are deleted by the user. These cookies allow returning users (or other users using the same computer) to be recognized automatically upon each visit.

Third-Party Cookies
When using the Website, some cookies may be stored that are not controlled by La Cordata scs. This happens, for example, when the user visits a page that includes content from third-party websites. As a result, the user may receive cookies from those third-party services. La Cordata scs does not control the information provided by these cookies and does not have access to such data. These cookies are fully managed by third parties in accordance with their respective privacy policies.

The table below lists the third-party cookies present on La Cordata scs's Website. These cookies fall under the exclusive responsibility of the third-party providers and are categorized as follows:
