COOKIE POLICY

After an audit conducted regarding the cookies used on this website, we inform you:

OUR COOKIE POLICY

The LSSI-CE requires all of us who have a blog or website to inform users about the existence of cookies, provide information about them, and request their consent to download them. Article 22.2 of Law 34/2002: “Service providers may use data storage and retrieval devices on recipients’ terminal equipment, provided that the recipients have given their consent after being provided with clear and complete information about their use, in particular, about the purposes of the data processing, in accordance with the provisions of Organic Law 15/1999, of December 13, on the Protection of Personal Data.” As the person responsible for this website, I have made every effort to fully comply with Article 22.2 of Law 34/2002 on Information Society Services and Electronic Commerce regarding cookies. However, considering the way the internet and websites work, it is not always possible to have up-to-date information about cookies that third parties may use through this site. This particularly applies to cases where this web page contains embedded elements: that is, texts, documents, images, or short films that are stored elsewhere but displayed on our website. Therefore, if you come across such cookies on this site and they are not listed below, please let me know. You can also contact the third party directly to request information about the cookies they set, the purpose, and duration of the cookie, and how they have ensured your privacy.

Preliminary – What are Cookies?

Cookies are tools used by web servers to store and retrieve information about their visitors. They are simply text files that some servers ask our browser to store on our hard drive, containing information about what we have been doing on their pages. They have an expiration date, which can range from the duration of the session to a specific future date after which they cease to be operational.

1. Cookies used on this website

This website uses both first-party and third-party cookies to ensure a better browsing experience, allow content sharing on social networks, display ads based on your interests, and collect user statistics. The cookies used on rugmp.com are associated only with an anonymous user and their computer. They do not provide references that allow deducing the user’s first and last name, nor can they read data from their hard drive or contain viruses in their text. Likewise, rugmp.com cannot read cookies implanted on the user’s hard drive from other servers. The user is free to decide whether or not to allow cookies from rugmp.com on their hard drive. To this end, the user can configure their browser to accept or reject all cookies by default or to receive a notification on screen when each cookie is received and decide at that moment whether or not to install it on their hard drive. We suggest checking your browser’s help section to learn how to change the current settings. Even if the user configures their browser to reject all cookies or explicitly rejects cookies from rugmp.com, they can still browse the Portal with the only drawback of not being able to use the functionalities that require some of them.
