More Information About Cookies

What is a cookie?

A cookie is an innocuous text file that is stored in your browser when you visit almost any website. The utility of the cookie is that the website can remember your visit when you return to that page. Although many people are unaware of it, cookies have been used for 20 years, since the first browsers for the World Wide Web appeared.

What is NOT a cookie?

It is not a virus, a trojan, a worm, spam, spyware, or pop-up windows.

What information does a cookie store?

Cookies usually do not store sensitive information about you, such as credit card details or bank information, photographs, your ID, or personal information. The data they store is technical in nature, personal preferences, content customization, etc.

The web server does not associate you as a person, but as your web browser. In fact, if you usually browse with Internet Explorer and try to browse the same website with Firefox or Chrome, the website will not recognize you as the same person because it is associating the browser, not the person.

What types of cookies exist?

  • Technical Cookies: These are the most basic and allow, among other things, knowing when a human is browsing versus an automated application, when an anonymous user is browsing versus a registered one, and other basic tasks for the functioning of any dynamic website.

  • Analytics Cookies: These collect information about the type of browsing you are doing, the sections you use the most, the products consulted, the time of use, the language, etc.

  • Advertising Cookies: These display ads based on your browsing, your country of origin, language, etc.

 

What are first-party and third-party cookies?

  • First-party Cookies: These are generated by the website you are visiting.

  • Third-party Cookies: These are generated by external services or providers like Facebook, Twitter, Google, etc.

 

What happens if I disable cookies?

To understand the potential impact of disabling cookies, here are some examples:

  • You will not be able to share content from that website on Facebook, Twitter, or any other social network.

  • The website will not be able to adapt the content to your personal preferences, as is often the case in online stores.

  • You will not be able to access personal areas of that website, such as “My Account,” “My Profile,” or “My Orders.”

  • In online stores, you will not be able to make purchases online, and you will need to place orders by phone or visit the physical store if available.

  • It will not be possible to customize your geographical preferences such as time zone, currency, or language.

  • The website will not be able to perform web analytics on visitors and traffic, which will hinder its competitiveness.

  • You will not be able to post on the blog, upload photos, post comments, rate or score content. The website will also not be able to determine if you are a human or an automated application posting spam.

  • Sector-targeted advertising will not be displayed, reducing the website’s advertising revenue.

  • All social networks use cookies. If you disable them, you will not be able to use any social network.
