This Cookies Policy provides information on the use of cookies on our website, hartem.com. Sometimes, the use of cookies may be related to the processing of personal data, so we recommend that you consult our Privacy Policy, accessible on our Platform, if you wish to know how we use the personal data of our customers and users, how to exercise your rights, or the terminology we use to refer to our website.

INFORMATION ABOUT COOKIES

What is a Cookie?

A cookie is a small text file that a website, app, or other platform stores on your computer, tablet, smartphone, or any similar device, containing information about your browsing or usage, such as a tag that identifies your device. Cookies are necessary, for example, to facilitate navigation and to understand how users interact with platforms, so they can be improved. They are also very useful for providing advertising based on the user's preferences, as well as for other purposes detailed further on. Cookies do not damage your computer or device. When we talk about "Cookies", we also refer to other similar technologies for installation and/or collection of information on or about your device (such as flash cookies, web beacons, pixels, HTML5 (local storage), and SDK technologies for app formats). Moreover, the term “Cookies” also applies to the use of fingerprinting techniques, which are used to combine information to help identify your device. Sometimes, these technologies work in conjunction with cookies to gather and store information, either to provide you with certain features or services on our Platform, or to show you advertising on third-party platforms based on your browsing. This explanation provides a general overview of what is meant by Cookies for informational purposes. The specific Cookies we use are detailed in the cookie settings panel accessible on our Platform.

What Types of Cookies Exist?

Please review this section, which provides an overview of the types of Cookies that may be used in an online environment. Depending on the owner of the Cookies, they can be classified into:

First-party Cookies: These are cookies sent to the user's computer or device from a team or domain managed by the editor, from which the platform or service requested by the user is provided.
Third-party Cookies: These are cookies sent to the user's computer or device from a team or domain not managed by the editor, but by another entity that processes the data obtained through the cookies.

Depending on the purpose of the Cookie, they can be classified as:

Strictly necessary cookies (technical): These allow the user to navigate a website, platform, or app and use the various options or services available, such as controlling traffic, identifying data or sessions, accessing restricted sections, remembering order items, completing the purchase process, managing payment, controlling fraud linked to the security of the service, using security features during navigation, enrolling in or participating in an event, storing content for video or audio playback, enabling dynamic content (e.g., loading animation of a text or image), or sharing content via social media. Technical cookies, being strictly necessary, are downloaded by default when they allow the platform or service requested by the user to function.
Functional or personalisation cookies: These cookies remember information to enable users to access a service or platform with specific features that differentiate their experience from other users, such as language, the number of results displayed when performing a search, the appearance or content of the service depending on the user's browser type or region from which they access the service, etc. Disabling these cookies may result in slower page performance or poorly adapted recommendations.
Analytical cookies: These cookies allow the measurement of the number of users, the sections visited on the platform, and how users interact with it, in order to carry out statistical analysis of their use and introduce improvements based on the analysis of the data collected from platform users.
Behavioural advertising cookies: These store information about the user's behaviour obtained through continuous observation of their browsing habits, allowing the creation of a specific profile to show advertising based on it. These cookies enable the most efficient management of advertising spaces, either directly included by the editor or in collaboration with third parties.

What Are Cookies Used For on Our Website?

Cookies are an essential part of how our Platform works. The main purpose of our cookies is to make your browsing experience more comfortable and efficient. For example, they are used to remember your preferences (language, country, etc.) during browsing and for future visits. We also use our cookies to continuously improve our services and Platform, as well as to offer personalised advertising based on your browsing habits. The information collected through cookies allows us to improve our Platform through estimates about statistical data and usage patterns (number of visits, most visited sections, visit duration, etc.), to know statistically how users interact with the Platform in order to improve our services, and to adapt the Platform to your individual interests, such as speeding up searches. Occasionally, we may use cookies to obtain information that helps us display advertising based on your browsing habits (products visited, sections consulted, etc.), either from our Platform, third-party platforms, or through other means. In any case, we never store sensitive information in our cookies, such as passwords or credit/debit card details.

This allows you to manage the activation or deactivation of cookies that are not strictly necessary for the functioning of the Platform. When you deactivate cookies, they will be removed from your browser whenever possible, and in any case, when you reject a cookie but it is not possible to delete it, we will block it. Therefore, we will never use the cookies you reject, and we will do our best to delete them (please note that some deletion mechanisms are beyond our control, as they depend on the third party responsible for the cookie). Alternatively, if you are browsing the internet, you can disable cookies in your browser, including third-party cookies that you have previously accepted and later wish to reject.

Therefore, if you configure cookies in one device and want the same setting to apply to another device, you will need to activate the same option for that other device. Additionally, with respect to third-party cookies for advertising based on your interests, please note that some third parties may be members of one of the following self-regulatory online behavioural advertising programmes, with corresponding voluntary opt-out options: Google Analytics.
