Cookies policy

Medium Gestora, S.L. provides information about the use of cookies on its website: https://www.mediumhoteles.com

What are cookies?

Cookies are files that can be downloaded to your computer through web pages. They are tools that play an essential role in providing numerous information society services. Among other things, they allow a website to store and retrieve information about a user’s or their computer’s browsing habits and, depending on the information obtained, can be used to recognise the user and improve the service offered.

Types of cookies

Depending on the entity that manages the domain from which the cookies are sent and processes the data obtained, two types can be distinguished:

• First-party cookies: Those that are sent to the user’s terminal equipment from a computer or domain managed by the publisher itself and from which the service requested by the user is provided.
• Third-party cookies: Those that are sent to the user’s terminal equipment from a computer or domain that is not managed by the publisher, but by another entity that processes the data obtained through the cookies.
• In the event that cookies are installed from a computer or domain managed by the publisher itself but the information collected through them is managed by a third party, they cannot be considered first-party cookies. There is also a second classification according to the length of time they remain stored in the client’s browser, which may be:
• Session cookies: Designed to collect and store data while the user accesses a website. They are often used to store information that only needs to be kept for the provision of the service requested by the user on a single occasion (e.g. a list of purchased products).
• Persistent cookies: The data remains stored on the terminal and can be accessed and processed for a period defined by the cookie controller, which can range from a few minutes to several years.
• Finally, there is another classification with six types of cookies according to the purpose for which the data obtained is processed:
• Technical cookies: Those that allow the user to navigate through a website, platform or application and use the different options or services that exist on it, such as, for example, controlling traffic and data communication, identifying the session, accessing restricted access parts, remembering the elements that make up an order, carrying out the purchase process of an order, carrying out the registration or participation request for an event, using security elements during navigation, storing content for the dissemination of videos or sound, or sharing content through social networks.
• Preference cookies: Allow the user to access the service with some general characteristics predefined based on a series of criteria on the user’s terminal, such as, for example, the language, the type of browser through which they access the service, the regional configuration from which they access the service, etc.
• Analytics cookies: Allow the party responsible for them to monitor and analyse the behaviour of users of the websites to which they are linked. The information collected through this type of cookie is used to measure the activity of websites, applications or platforms and to create browsing profiles of users of said sites, applications and platforms, in order to introduce improvements based on the analysis of the usage data made by service users.
• Advertising cookies: Allow the management, in the most efficient way possible, of advertising spaces.
• Behavioural advertising cookies: Store information on user behaviour obtained through the continuous observation of their browsing habits, which allows a specific profile to be developed to display advertising based on it.
• External social network cookies: They are used so that visitors can interact with content from different social platforms (facebook, youtube, twitter, linkedIn, etc.) and are generated only for users of said social networks. The conditions of use of these cookies and the information collected are regulated by the privacy policy of the corresponding social platform.
