Depending on the entity that manages the equipment or domain from which the cookies are sent and processes the data obtained, we can distinguish between:
a) First-party cookies: These are sent to the user’s terminal equipment from a computer or domain managed by the publisher itself, from which the service requested by the user is provided.
b) Third-party cookies: These are sent to the user’s terminal equipment from a computer or domain not managed by the publisher, but by another entity that processes the data obtained through the cookies.

2. According to their purpose

Data obtained through cookies may be processed for some of the following purposes:
a) Technical cookies: These are cookies that allow the user to navigate through a website, platform, or application and use the different options or services available on it, including those used by the publisher to manage and operate the website and enable its functions and services (for example, controlling traffic and data communication, identifying the session, accessing restricted areas, remembering items in an order, processing an order, managing payment, registering for or participating in an event, storing content for video or audio playback, enabling dynamic content, or sharing content through social networks).
b) Preference or personalization cookies: these are those that allow information to be remembered so that the user can access the service with certain characteristics that may differentiate their experience from that of other users, for example, the language, the number of results to show when the user performs a search, the appearance or content of the service depending on the type of browser through which the user accesses the service or the region from which they access the service, etc.
c) Analytics or measurement cookies: These cookies allow the party responsible for them to track and analyze the behavior of users on the websites to which they are linked, including quantifying the impact of advertisements. The information collected through these cookies is used to measure the activity of the websites, applications, or platforms in order to introduce improvements based on the analysis of user data.

3. According to the length of time they remain active
Depending on the length of time they remain active on the user’s device, we can distinguish between:
a) Session cookies: These are designed to collect and store data while the user accesses a website. They are typically used to store information that is only needed to provide the service requested by the user on a single occasion, for example, a list of purchased products, and therefore disappear when the session ends.
b) Persistent cookies: These are cookies in which the data remains stored on the user’s device and can be accessed and processed for a period defined by the cookie provider, which can range from a few minutes to several years.
