What cookies are used on this website?
We use third-party cookies for navigation analysis, advertising, and access to social networks. We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service developed by Google, which allows the measurement and analysis of navigation on web pages. This tool does not obtain data from user names. The information obtained is related, for example, to the number of pages visited, the language, the number of users who visit us, etc.
We also use Google Remarketing, which allows us to show ads to users who have previously visited our website while browsing the web, and Google Adwords, to publish ads on Google. Both services developed by Google.
For greater interaction with social networks, we have different widgets. For the user to share content on social networks, we use AddThis widget, developed by AddThis.
For them to access our social networks, we use the corresponding widgets: Twitter Button developed by Twitter, Pinterest Widget developed by Pinterest, Facebook Connect and Facebook Social Plugins developed by Facebook, and Google+1 developed by Google.
And if I don’t want to use cookies?
Due to their flexibility and the fact that many of the largest and most visited websites use cookies by default, cookies are practically inevitable. Disabling cookies would make it impossible for a user to access most of the sites used massively on the Internet, such as YouTube, Gmail, Yahoo Mail, and others. Even search engines need cookies for language settings.
Still, if you want to restrict, block, or delete cookies from any website, you can do so using your browser:
