Items saved in the “shopping cart” in e-commerce services, such as online stores.

Geolocation cookies

These cookies are used to determine your country of residence when you request a service. These cookies are completely anonymous and are used solely to tailor content to your location.

Registration cookies

Registration cookies are created after a user registers or logs into their account and are used to identify them on services for the following purposes:

Maintain user identification so that if they close the service, browser, or computer and then return at a later time, they remain identified, thus facilitating navigation without the need to log in again. This feature can be disabled by clicking the [logout] function, which will delete the cookie and require the user to log in again the next time they log in to the service.

Verify whether the user is authorized to access certain services, for example, to participate in a contest.

Furthermore, some services may utilize connections with social networks such as Facebook or Twitter. When a user registers with a service using their social network credentials, they authorize the social network to store a persistent cookie that remembers their identity and allows access to the service until its expiration date. The user can delete this cookie and revoke access to services via social networks by updating their settings in the relevant social network.

Analytical cookies

Each time a user visits a service, an external provider’s tool creates an analytical cookie on the user’s device. This cookie is created only during the visit and will be used on subsequent visits to Costa Blanca Mediterranean Homes, SL services to anonymously identify the visitor. Main purposes:

Ensuring anonymous user identification via cookies (identifying browsers and devices, not individuals) and, therefore, an approximate count of the number of visitors and their dynamics.
Anonymous identification of the most visited content to determine what is most attractive to users.
Determining whether the user is a new or returning visitor.
