COOKIES POLICY ()

In compliance with Law 34/2002 on Services of the Information Society and Electronic Commerce (LSSICE), the following legal aspects of the Website are hereby disclosed:

Eiffage Metal España, S.L.U. may collect information about the browsing habits of users of the website through cookies or log files. Cookies will not be used to collect personal information. They will only be installed if the User provides their express consent via the cookie banner, thus agreeing to their use and installation. Below, we provide detailed information about: what “cookies” are, the types used by this website, how to disable them in the browser, and how to specifically block the installation of third-party cookies.

1) WHAT ARE COOKIES?

Cookies are small text files generated by the websites the User visits, which contain session data that may be useful later on the website. This data allows the website to maintain its information across pages and also to analyze how users interact with the site.

Cookies are secure as they can only store the information placed by the browser, the information that the User has entered in the browser, or what is included in the page request. They cannot execute code and cannot be used to access the User’s device.

Cookies are essential for the proper functioning of the Internet, providing countless advantages in the provision of interactive services, facilitating navigation and usability of websites. Cookies cannot damage devices, and keeping them enabled helps identify and resolve errors.

The information collected through cookies may include the date and time of visits to the Website, the pages viewed, the time spent on the Website, and the sites visited just before and after it. However, no cookie allows contact with the User’s phone number or any other personal means of contact. No cookie can extract information from the User’s hard drive or steal personal information. The only way for the User’s private information to become part of the Cookie file is if the user personally provides that information to the server.

Cookies that allow identifying a person are considered personal data. Therefore, the previously described Privacy Policy will apply to them. Accordingly, the use of such cookies requires the User’s consent. This consent will be communicated based on a genuine choice, given by an affirmative and positive decision, prior to initial processing, and will be revocable and documented.

2) WHAT ARE SCRIPTS?

A script is a piece of program code used to make our website function correctly and interactively. This code runs on our server or on your device.

3) TYPES OF COOKIES

Below, we provide more information to help you better understand the different types of cookies that may be used:

According to ownership

First-party cookies: these are sent to the user’s device from a device or domain managed by the publisher itself and from which the requested service is provided.

Third-party cookies: these are sent to the user’s device from a device or domain not managed by the publisher, but by another entity that processes the data obtained through the cookies.

According to purpose

Technical (necessary) cookies: These cookies are essential and strictly necessary for the proper functioning of a website and the use of the various options or services it offers.

For example, those used for session maintenance, response time management, performance, etc.

Preference or customization cookies: these allow remembering information so the user can access the service with certain characteristics that may differentiate their experience from other users, such as language, number of results to show when performing a search, appearance or content of the service depending on the type of browser or region of access, etc.

Analytical cookies: these allow the entity responsible for them to track and analyze the behavior of users on the websites to which they are linked, including measuring the impact of advertisements. The information collected through this type of cookie is used to measure website, app, or platform activity, with the aim of introducing improvements based on the analysis of the users’ usage data.

Behavioral advertising cookies: these store information about users’ behavior obtained through continuous observation of their browsing habits, which allows developing a specific profile to display advertising based on it.

According to duration

Session cookies: these are designed to collect and store data while the user accesses a website. They are generally used to store information that is only of interest for providing the service requested by the user on a single occasion (e.g., a list of purchased products), and they disappear at the end of the session.

Persistent cookies: in these, the data remain stored on the device and can be accessed and processed for a period defined by the cookie controller, which can range from a few minutes to several years.

First-party cookies

These are cookies sent to the User’s computer or device and managed exclusively by Eiffage Metal España, S.L.U. to ensure better operation of the Website. The information collected is used to improve the Website’s quality, its Content, and the User’s experience. These cookies allow recognizing the User as a repeat visitor and adapting the content to suit their preferences.

Third-party cookies

These are cookies used and managed by external entities that provide services requested by the Website to improve the site and the user experience while browsing it. The main purposes for which third-party cookies are used are to obtain access statistics and analyze navigation data—that is, how the User interacts with the Website.

The information obtained includes, for example, the number of pages visited, the language, the location linked to the IP address from which the User accesses, the number of users who access, the frequency and recurrence of visits, visit duration, the browser used, the operator or type of device used.

5) LEGAL BASIS FOR THE USE OF COOKIES

In the case of technical cookies—those essential for navigating this website and receiving the service provided through it—the legal basis for their use is the agreement whereby you choose to use this website and its services.

The legal basis for using the remaining cookies is the user’s consent, which is requested upon accessing this website and may be revoked at any time. Withdrawing this consent will not affect your ability to navigate this website or use its services, but any data processing carried out previously will remain lawful even after consent is revoked.

The user may withdraw their consent regarding this Cookie Policy at any time. To do so, they must delete the cookies stored on their device using the settings and configurations of their internet browser.

8) DATA SUBJECT RIGHTS

Most cookies collect anonymous information that does not allow the user’s identity to be determined. However, some codes included can serve to single out or individualize the browser or device used, which may trigger the application of data protection regulations. Therefore, we inform you that the information obtained through cookies will be processed for the purposes described in this Cookie Policy. This information will also be processed by the companies providing cookies, in accordance with their respective privacy policies.

Nonetheless, since these codes do not allow identification of the User, the rights of access, rectification, erasure, objection, restriction, and data portability as recognized in data protection regulations will not apply unless the User provides additional information that allows their identity to be linked with the cookie identifiers.

If the user considers their data protection rights have been violated, they may file a complaint with the Spanish Data Protection Agency. Furthermore, we inform you that some of our providers, partners, and collaborators may be located in the United States or in other countries whose legal framework does not offer an equivalent level of data protection as in the European Union. By consenting to the use of cookies and the sharing of data, you agree to the transfer of your personal data.
