1. What Are Cookies?
The website www.ponentexplorers.com (hereinafter, the "Website"), owned by MARC SISÓ VILAGRASA (hereinafter, "we", "us", or "the Owner"), uses cookies and/or similar technologies that store and retrieve information when you browse.
A cookie is a small text file that a website stores on your computer or mobile device when you visit the site. Cookies allow the website to remember your actions and preferences (such as login, language, font size, and other display preferences) over a period of time, so you don’t have to keep re-entering them whenever you come back to the site or browse from one page to another.
In general, these technologies can serve very diverse purposes, such as, for example, recognizing you as a user, obtaining information about your Browse habits, or customizing the way content is displayed. The specific uses we make of these technologies are described below.
2. What Do We Use Cookies For On This Website?
We use first-party and third-party cookies for various purposes, such as:
- Ensure the proper functioning of the Website.
- Store your preferences, such as the selected language or font size.
- Improve your Browse experience.
- Collect anonymous statistical information about how visitors use our Website in order to improve it.
3. Types Of Cookies We Use
Below, we detail the types of cookies that this Website may use:
According to the entity that manages them:
- First-party cookies: These are sent to the user's terminal equipment from a computer or domain managed by the editor itself (us) and from which the service requested by the user is provided.
- Third-party cookies: These are sent to the user's terminal equipment from a computer or domain that is not managed by the editor, but by another entity that processes the data obtained through cookies (e.g., Google, Facebook, etc.).
According to the period of time they remain active:
- Session cookies: These are temporary cookies designed to collect and store data while the user accesses a web page. They are usually used to store information that is only of interest to keep for the provision of the service requested by the user on a single occasion (e.g., a list of purchased products) and disappear at the end of the session.
- Persistent cookies: These are cookies in which the data remains stored in the terminal and can be accessed and processed for a period defined by the cookie's controller, which can range from a few minutes to several years.
According to their purpose:
- Technical cookies (necessary): These are essential for the functioning of the Website and the use of the different options or services that exist in it. They allow, for example, controlling traffic and data communication, identifying the session, accessing restricted access parts, remembering the elements that make up an order (e.g., in a travel booking process), carrying out the purchase process of an order, managing payment, controlling fraud linked to the security of the service, making a request for registration or participation in an event, counting visits for the purposes of billing software licenses with which the service operates (website, platform, or application), using security elements during navigation, storing content for the dissemination of videos or sound, enabling dynamic content (e.g., loading animation of a text or image) or sharing content through social networks.
These cookies generally do not require the user's explicit consent if they allow the service requested by them to be provided, but information about them must always be provided. - Preference or personalization cookies: These allow information to be remembered so that the user can access the service with certain characteristics that can differentiate their experience from that of other users, such as, for example, the language, the number of results to display when the user performs a search, the appearance or content of the service depending on the type of browser through which the user accesses the service or the region from which they access the service, etc.
If the user chooses these characteristics themselves (for example, if they select the language of a website by clicking on the corresponding flag icon), it is considered an expressly requested service and consent would not be required if the cookies exclusively serve the selected personalization purpose. - Analysis or measurement cookies: These, whether processed by us or by third parties, allow us to quantify the number of users and thus carry out the measurement and statistical analysis of the use made by users of the service offered. For this, their navigation on our website is analyzed in order to improve the offer of products or services that we offer (e.g., Google Analytics). These cookies require the user's consent.
