What are cookies?

Cookies are a set of data that a server deposits in the user's browser to collect standard Internet log information and visitor behavior information on a website. In other words, they are small text files stored on the hard drive of your computer that serve to identify the user when they connect again to the website.

What types of cookies exist?

The cookies used on our website are session and third-party cookies, and they allow us to store and access information related to language, the type of browser used, and other general characteristics predefined by the user, as well as to monitor and analyze the activity carried out, with the aim of introducing improvements and providing our services in a more efficient and personalized manner.

Cookies, depending on their duration, can be divided into session cookies or persistent cookies. Session cookies expire when the user closes the browser. Persistent cookies expire based on when the purpose for which they serve is fulfilled (for example, to keep the user identified in the services of FUNDACIÓN AVEDIS DONABEDIAN PARA LA MEJORA DE LA CALIDAD ASISTENCIAL) or when they are manually deleted.

Additionally, depending on their purpose, cookies can be classified as follows:

Performance cookies

This type of cookie remembers your preferences for the tools found in the services, so you don't have to reconfigure the service each time you visit. For example, this category includes: volume settings of video or sound players, video streaming speeds compatible with your browser, items saved in the “shopping cart” in e-commerce services such as stores.

Geolocation cookies

These cookies are used to determine which country you are in when a service is requested. This cookie is completely anonymous and is only used to help target content to your location.

Registration cookies

Registration cookies are generated once the user has registered or subsequently opened their session, and are used to identify them in the services with the following objectives:

  • Keep the user identified so that, if they close a service, the browser, or the computer and at another time or another day re-enter that service, they will continue to be identified, thus facilitating their navigation without having to identify themselves again. This functionality can be suppressed if the user clicks the [log out] functionality, so this cookie is deleted and the next time they enter the service, the user will have to log in to be identified.
  • Check if the user is authorized to access certain services, for example, to participate in a contest.

Additionally, some services may use connectors with social networks such as Facebook or Twitter. When the user registers in a service with credentials from a social network, they authorize the social network to save a persistent cookie that remembers their identity and grants them access to the services until it expires. The user can delete this cookie and revoke access to the services through social networks by updating their preferences in the specific social network.

Analytical cookies

Each time a user visits a service, a tool from an external provider generates an analytical cookie on the user's computer. This cookie, which is only generated during the visit, will be used in future visits to the services of FUNDACIÓN AVEDIS DONABEDIAN PARA LA MEJORA DE LA CALIDAD ASISTENCIAL to anonymously identify the visitor. The main objectives pursued are:

  • Allow the anonymous identification of browsing users through the cookie (identifies browsers and devices, not people) and therefore the approximate counting of the number of visitors and their trend over time.
  • Identify anonymously the most visited and therefore most attractive content for users, and know if the user who is accessing is new or a repeat visitor.

Important: Unless the user decides to register in a service of FUNDACIÓN AVEDIS DONABEDIAN PARA LA MEJORA DE LA CALIDAD ASISTENCIAL, the cookie will never be associated with any personal data that can identify them. These cookies will only be used for statistical purposes that help to optimize the user experience on the site.
