Cookies Policy

What is a cookie?

A cookie is a small amount of information stored on a computer to identify the browser when it interacts with our websites. This information allows us to recognise you as a specific user and save your personal preferences, as well as technical information such as the number of visits or the specific pages you view, thereby improving your user experience.

Depending on the organisation that manages the domain from which the cookies are sent and processes the data collected, there are two types: first-party cookies and third-party cookies.

Purpose for which cookies are installed

  • Analytical cookies: these cookies are used to analyse user behaviour in an aggregated and anonymous manner, including the number of visitors to the website and to the various product pages, the source of the visit, the date and time, the platform, the number of clicks on a banner and the search terms a user employs to find the desired content. In this way, Alsa provides a very useful tool for making improvements to the website and determining which content or design is most relevant to the user.
  • Functional cookies: These are cookies that help the user enjoy a better browsing experience on the website. An example of the use of this type of cookie is those used to store browsing data in a specific language.
  • Technical cookies: Technical cookies are necessary to display the website correctly and ensure it functions properly.
  • Analytical cookies: Analytical cookies enable the measurement of each user’s activity and the collection of browsing statistics.
  • Advertising cookies: These are cookies that help manage the frequency and content of adverts.
  • Social media cookies: These enable the user to be identified and content to be shared on social media.

What cookies are used on this website?

We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service developed by Google, which enables us to measure and analyse website traffic. This tool does not collect users’ names. The information it collects relates, for example, to the number of pages visited, the language, the number of users visiting our site, etc.

We also use Google Remarketing, which enables us to show adverts to users who have previously visited our website whilst they are browsing the internet, and Google AdWords, to publish adverts on Google. Both are services developed by Google.

To enhance interaction with social media, we use various widgets. To allow users to share content on social media, we use the AddThis widget, developed by AddThis.

To enable access to our social media channels, we use the relevant widgets: the Twitter button developed by Twitter, the Pinterest widget developed by Pinterest, Facebook Connect and the Facebook social plugins developed by Facebook, and Google+1 developed by Google.

What if I don’t want to use cookies?

Due to their flexibility and the fact that many of the largest and most-visited websites use cookies by default, they are virtually unavoidable. Disabling cookies would mean that a user would be unable to access most of the most widely used websites on the internet, such as YouTube, Gmail, Yahoo Mail and others. Even search engines need cookies for language settings.

However, if you wish to restrict, block or delete cookies from any website, you can do so via your browser:

• Safari
• Firefox
• Internet Explorer
