COOKIES POLICY

 

We collect and use personal information on this website as set out in the privacy policy, and one of the ways in which we collect information is through the use of technology called “cookies”. At www.noisynbio.org we use cookies for a number of things.

 

WHAT IS A COOKIE?

A “cookie” is a small amount of text that is stored in a user’s browser (such as Google Chrome or Apple’s Safari) when the user browses most websites. A cookie is not a virus, Trojan horse, worm, spam, spyware or pop-up windows.

 

WHAT INFORMATION DOES A COOKIE STORE?

Cookies do not usually store sensitive information about the user, such as credit card numbers or bank details, photographs or personal information, etc. The data stored by cookies are of a technical nature, statistics, personal preferences, personalisation of content, etc.

The web server does not associate the user as a person but with the web browser. If the user usually browses with the Chrome browser and tries browsing with the Firefox browser, they will see that the website does not realise that the user is the same person because it is actually associating the information with the browser, not the person.

 

WHAT COOKIES EXIST?

There are three different types of cookies:

  • Technical cookies: these are the most basic cookies and allow, among other things, to know when a human or an automated application is browsing, when an anonymous user and a registered user are browsing, which are basic tasks for the operation of any dynamic website.
  • Analysis cookies: these are cookies that collect information on the type of browsing being carried out by the user, the sections most used, products consulted, time of use, language, etc.
  • Advertising cookies: these are cookies that display advertising based on the user’s browsing habits, country of origin, language, etc.

 

COOKIES ACCEPTED BY THE REGULATION AND EXCEPTED COOKIES

According to the European Union directive, the cookies that require the user’s informed consent are analytical cookies and advertising and affiliation cookies, with the exception of technical cookies and those necessary for the operation of the website or the provision of services expressly requested by the user.
