Cookies Policy

AKASMADAI, S.L. informs about the use of cookies on its website: https://bancalhotel.com

What are cookies?

Cookies are files that can be downloaded to your device through websites. They are essential tools for providing numerous information society services. Among other functions, they allow a website to store and retrieve information about a user’s browsing habits or their device, and depending on the information obtained, they can be used to recognize the user and improve the service offered.

Types of cookies

Depending on who manages the domain from which cookies are sent and processes the obtained data, two types can be distinguished:

  • First-party cookies: Those sent to the user’s device from a device or domain managed by the publisher itself and from which the service requested by the user is provided.
  • Third-party cookies: Those sent to the user’s device from a device or domain not managed by the publisher, but by another entity that processes the data obtained through the cookies.

If cookies are installed from a device or domain managed by the publisher but the information collected through them is managed by a third party, they cannot be considered first-party cookies.

There is also a second classification based on how long they remain stored in the client’s browser:

  • Session cookies: Designed to collect and store data while the user accesses a website. They are typically used to store information that only needs to be kept for providing the service requested by the user on a single occasion (e.g., a list of purchased products).
  • Persistent cookies: Data remains stored on the device and can be accessed and processed for a period defined by the cookie controller, ranging from a few minutes to several years.

Finally, there is another classification with six types of cookies based on the purpose of processing the obtained data:

  • Technical cookies: Those that allow the user to navigate through a website, platform or application and use the different options or services available, such as controlling traffic and data communication, identifying the session, accessing restricted areas, remembering order items, completing a purchase process, submitting a registration or event participation request, using security elements during navigation, storing content for video or sound broadcasting, or sharing content through social networks.
  • Personalization cookies: Allow the user to access the service with some predefined general characteristics based on certain criteria in the user’s device, such as language, browser type used to access the service, regional settings, etc.
  • Analytics cookies: Allow the controller to track and analyze user behavior on the websites they are linked to. The information collected is used to measure website activity and create user navigation profiles to implement improvements based on usage data analysis.
  • Advertising cookies: Allow the most efficient management of advertising spaces.
  • Behavioral advertising cookies: Store information about user behavior obtained through continuous observation of their browsing habits, enabling the development of specific profiles to display targeted advertising.
  • Social media cookies: Used to allow visitors to interact with content from different social platforms (Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn, etc.) and are generated only for users of these networks. The conditions of use and collected information are governed by the privacy policy of each social platform.
