What are cookies?

This website uses cookies, or files that are downloaded to your terminal (whether a computer, smartphone or tablet) when you access a website, which allow the owner of the website to store or retrieve certain information on multiple variables such as facilitating the use and navigation through the website, ensuring access to certain features or improving the quality of the page according to the habits and browsing styles of users, among others. From www.comillas.edu we want to offer you the necessary information about the type of cookies used on our website, so that you can decide on their use, depending on your privacy preferences.

What kind of cookies are used on this website?

Below, we provide information on the type of cookies used on this website and their purpose:

According to their purpose:

  • Necessary (technical): they allow the user to browse through the page and use the different options or services that exist on it. These include, for example, those that allow traffic control and data communication, identifying the session, accessing restricted areas, using security elements during browsing, among others. The website would not be able to function correctly without the existence of these cookies.

  • Preferences: those that allow information to be remembered so that the user can access the service with certain characteristics that may differentiate their experience from that of other users, such as, for example, the language, the number of results to be displayed when the user performs a search or the appearance/content of the service depending on the type of browser through which the user accesses the service.

  • Statistics (analysis or measurement): these are those that allow the person responsible for them to monitor and analyse the behaviour of the users of the websites to which they are linked, including the quantification of the impact of advertisements.

  • Marketing (behavioural advertising): these are cookies that store information on user behaviour obtained through the continuous observation of their browsing habits, which allows a specific profile to be developed in order to display advertisements based on it.

  • Unclassified: cookies still in the process of being classified in the corresponding category, together with the providers of individual cookies.

Based on the length of time they remain activated:

  • Session: cookies designed to collect and store data while the user accesses a website. They store information that only needs to be kept for the provision of the service requested by the user on a single occasion and disappear when the session ends.

  • Persistent: the data remains stored in the terminal and can be accessed and processed for a period defined by the party responsible for the cookie, which can range from a few minutes to several years.

You can find the indicator for each of the cookies in the preferences panel, in the "Show details" section. If they are session cookies, the reference "Session" will appear, while if they are persistent, the period for which they are stored will be indicated.

Depending on the entity that manages them:

  • First-party cookies: These are those for which Comillas is responsible and which are generally sent to the user's terminal equipment from a computer or domain managed by Comillas and from which the service requested by the user is provided.

  • Third-party cookies: These are those for which an entity other than Comillas is responsible and which are generally sent to the user's terminal equipment from a computer or domain that is managed by another entity that processes the data obtained through the cookies.

In all those cookies in which a link is indicated with the text "More information about this provider" will be considered third-party cookies, while if there is no indication, they are our own cookies.
