In general, and as stated in the Guide to Cookies published by the Spanish Data Protection Agency (AEPD), which can be consulted here, cookies can be of various types:
- Depending on the organisation that manages the computer or domain from which cookies are sent and processes the data obtained, we can distinguish:
- Own cookies: These are sent to the user’s terminal or equipment from a computer or domain managed by the platform’s editor, in this case, TURITOP, from whom the user has requested services.
- Third-party cookies: are those that are sent to the user’s terminal or equipment from a computer or domain that is not managed by the platform’s publisher, but by another organisation that processes the data obtained through cookies. If cookies are installed from a computer or domain managed by TURITOP, but, however, the information collected through them is managed by a third-party, they cannot be considered as TURITOP’s own cookies. In this regard, TURITOP may contract the services of analysis and measurement companies that measure and/or analyse the browsing behaviour of users on the platform and, in this respect, act on their behalf and representation, through the analysis of the data obtained with the use of these third-party cookies, all with the sole purpose of improving the service provided by TURITOP.

- Behavioural advertising cookies: These are those that allow the management of the advertising spaces, in most efficient way possible, that, in their case, the editor has included in a web page, application or platform from which it provides the requested service. These cookies store information on the behaviour of users obtained through continuous observation of their browsing habits, allowing the development of a specific profile to then display advertising based on it.
