The aforementioned companies are the owners of the current web page and operate with the same administrator that provides a service via different domains. For that reason and to help users will be notified and consent obtained for the use of cookies sent from the rest of the domains of the ADMINISTRATOR via one single page, the first that is visited as long as these sites offer similar content or have similar characteristics.
In the table of information, you can consult all the domains from where the cookies are sent, whether they be our own or those of third parties.
Via the configuration of cookies and the acceptance of the Cookie Alert, you are authorising the installation of the said and configured cookies (unless you have rejected the cookies or you modified the settings of your browser to reject all or certain cookies by default.)
1. WHAT ARE COOKIES?
A cookie is a text file that includes small amounts of data that is downloaded and installed on your device/terminal when you visit our website. Subsequently, the cookies return to the original web page on subsequent visits, or to another web page that recognises this cookie. Cookies are useful as they can be used to store and retrieve information about the number of visits, a user or computer’s browsing habits and, depending on the information they contain and the way you use your device, they can be used to recognise the user, as well as to improve the experience of using the website.
You can find more information about cookies at www.allaboutcookies.org/es
2. TYPES OF COOKIES
Depending on the owner/organisation that manages the system from which the cookies are sent and that processes the data obtained, we can distinguish between:
- a. First-party cookies: Those that are sent to the user’s device from a system or domain managed by us and from which the service required by the user is provided.
- b. Third-party cookies: These are those that are sent to the user’s computer/terminal from a system or domain that is not managed by us, but by another party that processes the data obtained through cookies.
In addition, depending on the purpose of certain cookies, they can be classified as:
- a. Strictly necessary cookies (technical): These are cookies that allow the user to browse the website and use the different options or services available, including those used to enable operational management of the website and its functions and services, such as, for example, to control traffic and data communication, to identify the session, to access restricted areas, to perform a purchase procedure, to remember an order, to manage payment, to control fraud linked to service security, to apply for registration for or participation in an event, to count views for purposes of billing licenses for the software with which the service works, to use security features while browsing, to store content for producing videos or audio, to enable dynamic content and to share content on social networks.
User consent is not required for the installation of these cookies. However, if you set your browser to block these cookies, the website may stop working properly. - b. Functionality or personalisation cookies: These are cookies that allow the user to remember information so that they can access the service with certain characteristics that can differentiate their experience from that of other users, such as language, the number of results to show when a user performs a search, the appearance or content of the website depending on the type of browser used or the region from which the site is accessed, etc. Disabling these cookies may mean that the browsing experience is less functional for the user.
- c. Analysis cookies: These are cookies that allow the party responsible thereof to monitor and analyse the behaviour of their website users, including the quantification of the impact of advertisements. The information collected by these types of cookies is used to measure website activity in order to make improvements based on analysis of data on the use made by the users of the service. These cookies analyse, for example, the pages visited, the frequency and recurrence of visits or the time spent on each page or section, among other statistical parameters
- d. Behavioural advertising cookies: These are cookies that store information on user behaviour obtained through continuous observation of their browsing habits, and that allow the creation of a specific profile to display personalised advertising based thereon. In other words, they are cookies that support effective management of any advertising spaces that have been included on the website, usually by third parties that manage those advertising spaces and that can adapt the content of the advertising to make sure that it is relevant to the user and to avoid showing advertisements that the user has already seen, as well as limiting the amount of advertising impacts made by each user. In accordance with their own policies, some advertising managers may use anonymous cookies to display advertisements of interest to the user when visiting other web pages.
In short, on our website we install first-party and third-party cookies and these may be strictly necessary, or otherwise serve for functionality, personalisation, analysis and behavioural advertising purposes.
3. RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE INFORMATION OBTAINED BY COOKIES:
The information obtained by analysis cookies as well as by behavioural advertising cookies can be shared with third parties that will act as co-responsible parties for any objectives and means of processing data as determined jointly with FC Barcelona, and they have also signed a corresponding co-responsibility agreement that determines their respective responsibilities in compliance with legal obligations
These Joint Controllers are:
- FC Barcelona, situated in Carrer Aristides Maillol w/n, 08028, Barcelona and NIF G08266298.
