Introduction

In compliance with Ley 34/2002, de 11 de julio, de Servicios de la Sociedad de la Información y Comercio Electrónico (LSSI-CE, the Spanish Information Society Services Act), we inform the User about the use of cookies on the "Smartest" website.

Cookies make it possible, among other things, to collect statistical information, to enable certain technical features, and to store and retrieve information about the browsing habits or preferences of a User or of their device. Depending on the information they contain and on how the device is used, they may be used to recognise the User and to remember details about the User such as their language, country, browser, etc. If the User does not wish to receive cookies, they may configure their browser to delete them from their computer's hard drive, to block them or to notify them, where applicable, when they are installed.

This website does not currently use cookies, whether first-party or third-party, nor any equivalent tracking technologies (local storage, beacons, pixels). In the following document we explain, in general terms, what cookies are and how to manage them, and what would happen if this website were to use them in the future.

What are cookies, scripts and web beacons?

A cookie is a small, simple file that is sent together with the pages of this website and stored by the user's browser on the hard drive of their computer or another device (smartphone, tablet, connected television, etc.). The information stored may be returned to our servers or to the servers of the relevant third parties during a subsequent visit.

A script is a piece of program code used to make our website function properly and interactively. This code runs on our server or on the user's device.

A web beacon (or pixel tag) is a small, invisible piece of text or image on a website that is used to track traffic on a website.

Depending on the entity that manages them, cookies may be:

First-party cookies

First-party cookies are files sent from our servers or domains directly to the user's device. They are created and managed by us, and their use contributes to the proper functioning of the website and to the personalisation of the user experience.

Third-party cookies

The Website may use cookies installed by third parties to carry out statistical analysis of users' browsing or to display personalised advertising content. It is important to bear in mind that, if third-party cookies are accepted, it is the user's responsibility to delete them through the browser settings or through the system provided by the third party itself.

Neither this Website nor its legal representatives accept any responsibility for the content or accuracy of the privacy policies of the third parties mentioned in this cookies policy. Web browsers are the tools responsible for storing cookies, and it is through them that users must exercise their right to delete or disable them. Neither this Website nor its legal representatives can guarantee the correct or incorrect handling of cookies by such browsers.

Depending on their expiry, cookies may be:

Session cookies

Temporary cookies that remain in the browser's cookie file only for the duration of the session on our website and are not stored on the device after the session or the browser is closed.

Persistent cookies

They store information on the device and remain after the session or the browser is closed. They are used to remember information and settings between visits, providing a personalised experience over time.

Depending on their purpose, cookies may be:

Technical or functional cookies

Some cookies ensure that certain parts of the website work properly and that user preferences can be remembered. By placing functional cookies, we make it easier to visit and use our website. In this way, there is no need to enter the same information repeatedly when visiting our website and, for example, items remain in the shopping basket until the user completes the purchase. The applicable rules allow us to place these cookies without your consent.

Analytics cookies

These cookies are used to optimise the experience on the website. They allow the behaviour of website users to be tracked and analysed. The user's consent is required before they can be placed. This information is valuable for improving and adjusting content and design, ensuring a more efficient and personalised experience.

Advertising or marketing cookies

They store information on user behaviour obtained through the continuous observation of browsing habits, which makes it possible to build a specific profile in order to display advertising based on it. Both we and third parties collect information on campaign results based on a profile created from the user's clicks and browsing. With these cookies the user, as a visitor to the website, is linked to a unique ID. The user's consent is required before these cookies can be placed.

Social media buttons

These are buttons used to promote pages (e.g. "like", "pin") or share them (e.g. "tweet") on social networks such as Facebook. These buttons work using code from those social networks; this code embeds cookies. These social media buttons may store and process certain information, so that a personalised advertisement can be displayed.

By clicking on those buttons, you accept the use of cookies by those social networks, and your relationship with them will be governed exclusively by the privacy policy of the respective entities. Please read the privacy policy of these social networks (which may change frequently) to find out what they do with your (personal) data processed using these cookies.

Cookies used by this website

None. This website does not install cookies of any kind on the User's device: it does not use technical cookies, analytics cookies, advertising cookies or social media buttons. For this reason, no cookie consent banner is displayed: there is nothing to consent to.

The forms on this website (demo access request and newsletter subscription) use the services of Loops (loops.so) and FormSubmit (formsubmit.co) to manage the data submitted, as detailed in our Privacy Policy. Submitting these forms does not install cookies on the User's device.

Cookie consent and settings

If in the future this website were to incorporate cookies requiring consent (for example, analytics or marketing cookies), an information window ("first layer") would be displayed on the first visit so that the User could accept or reject them before they are installed, and this policy would be updated to detail each cookie, its purpose and its expiry.

Your rights regarding personal data

Please see our privacy policy to learn about your rights regarding the processing of personal data and how to exercise them.

Enabling, disabling and deleting cookies

You can use your Internet browser to delete cookies automatically or manually. You can also specify that certain cookies may not be placed. Another option is to change your Internet browser settings so that you receive a message each time a cookie is placed. For more information about these options, please refer to the instructions in the "Help" section of your browser.

Please note that our website may not work properly if all cookies are disabled. If you delete the cookies from your browser, they will be placed again, subject to your consent, when you next visit our websites.
