USO DE COOKIES

A cookie is a file that downloads onto your computer when you access certain websites. Amongst other things, cookies enable a website to save and retrieve information about a user or their computer’s browsing habits and, depending on the information they contain and the way in which their computer is used, it may help to identify the user.

The cookies used on this website are, in any event, of a temporary kind, the only purpose being to make their subsequent transmission more efficient. Under no circumstances will cookies be used to collect personal information.

The AEDAS Homes S.A. website uses cookies to:

• Ensure that its web pages can run correctly
• Store your preferences, such as the language or font size you have chosen
• Learn your browsing experience
• Collect anonymous statistical information, such as which sections you have visited, or how long you stayed on our site.

Cookies are only associated to an anonymous user and their computer/device and do not provide references that reveal personal details. You can, at any, time, access enter browser configuration to modify and/or block cookie installation. Service functioning quality may, however, be affected.

From the technical viewpoint, cookies enable websites to work more nimbly and adapted to users’ preferences, such as saving the language or detecting the access device, for example.

They establish protection and security levels that impede or hinder cyber-attacks against the website or its users and provide web managers with statistical data collected in the cookies to improve their service quality and experience, also serving to optimise the advertising we show users, offering them what best matches their interests.

COOKIE TYPES

Session cookies expire when the user leaves the website or logs out of their browser, i.e., they are active whilst the visit to the website lasts and are then deleted from our computer when we leave it.

Persistent cookies expire when the purpose for which they have been created has been fulfilled or alternatively when they are deleted manually, they have a deletion date and they are usually in online purchasing processes, personalisations or in logins so we do not have to be constantly entering our password.

Alternatively, depending on which entity it is that the computer or domain from where the cookies are sent and processes the data obtained, we can differentiate between first-party and third-party cookies.

First-party cookies are those cookies sent to your computer and managed exclusively by AEDAS Home S.A. for our website to run better. The information we gather is used to improve the our service quality and your user experience.

If you interact with our website contents, third-party cookies may also be installed (for instance, when you press a social media button or view videos housed on another website); these are cookies set by a domain other than our website. We cannot access the data stored in other website cookies when you browse said websites.

Browsing this web portal implies the following kinds of cookies may be installed:

1. FUNCTIONAL COOKIES

This type of cookie remembers your preferences for the tools located in the services, so you do not have to reconfigure the service every time you visit. These cookies will not gather any information about you that may be used for advertising purposes or information about your preferences (such as your user data) beyond that visit in particular.

2. ANALYTICAL PERFORMANCE COOKIES

Every time a user visits a service, a tool from an external provider (Omniture, Netscope, Comscore and other similar ones that may be added to this list in the event of them varying with respect to those currently existing) generates an analytics cookie on the user’s computer. This cookie, which is only generated in the visit, will enable www.aedashomes.com services to anonymously identify the visitor in subsequent visits.

The main aims they pursue are:

• To allow anonymous identification of browser users through the ”cookie” (it identifies browsers and devices, not people) and hence approximate recognition of the number of visitors and their trend over time.
• To anonymously identify the most frequently visited contents and hence those that are most attractive to users.
• To know whether the user that is accessing is a new or repeat visitor.

3. BEHAVIOURAL ADVERTISING COOKIES

This type of cookies enables expansion of the information about the advertisements shown to each anonymous user, if there are any. Amongst others, they store the duration, how frequently advertising positions are viewed, interaction with them or the user’s browsing patterns or behaviour because they help to build an advertising interest profile. They thus enable advertising to be targeted that is more relevant to the user’s interests.

Google Analytics:

The application we use to obtain and analyse browsing information is: Google Analytics:

www.google.com/analytics/ and

The information obtained is related, for instance, to the number of page hits, the language, the social media on which our news is published, the city to which the IP address from which users access is assigned, the number of users visiting us, visit frequency and repetition, the length of the visit, the browser they use, the operator or terminal type used for the visit.

We use this information to improve our website, detect new requirements and assess the improvements to be introduced to provide the users visiting us with a better service.
