Cookie Policy | Your Spanish Corner

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are tools used by web servers to store and retrieve information about their visitors or users. They are simply text files that some servers install while browsing and that allow information to be collected, such as: the location from which you access the website, connection time, the device used (desktop or mobile), the operating system and browser, the most visited pages, the number of clicks made and data relating to user behaviour on the Internet. Cookies do not provide information that directly identifies the user's first and last name, cannot read data from their hard drive and cannot introduce viruses into their devices. Likewise, cookies stored on a user's hard drive by other servers cannot be read.
