Cookie policy

The purpose of this document is to inform you about the various cookies that ECOALF RECYCLED FABRICS, S.L (hereinafter, ECOALF) collects through its website https://ecoalf.com/ (hereinafter Website), whether its own or from third parties, and the various means by which you can reject, allow or block these. In any case, ECOALF hereby informs you that rejecting, blocking or not allowing cookies may affect the proper browsing of the content shown on the website.

1. WHAT IS A COOKIE?

Cookies are storage and data recovery devices installed in the browser or in the user’s terminal device which allow the website holder to understand the user’s activity and which aim to establish metrics on their browsing behaviour, commonly known as “the user experience”.

2. TYPES OF COOKIES

Cookies can be categorised into the following types:
According to the cookie issuer

• Own cookies: Those for which the website holder is responsible and which are generally sent to the user’s terminal device from a device or domain that is managed by the publisher itself and from which the service requested by the user is provided.

• Third-party cookies:  Those created and managed by an entity other than the website holder and which are generally sent to the user’s terminal device from a device or domain that is not managed by the publisher, but by another entity that processes the data obtained through the cookies. If the cookies are issued from a device or domain managed by the publisher itself but the information collected by them is managed by a third party, they cannot be considered own cookies if the third party uses them for their own purposes.

According to the cookie life cycle

• Session cookies: These are temporary cookies that expire when the website is closed, for example when the tab or browser is closed, so none are recorded on the user’s hard drive. Information obtained through these cookies will be used to analyse website traffic patterns. Ultimately, this allows us to provide a better experience, improving the content and making the website more user-friendly.

• Permanent cookies: These are stored on the hard disk and our website reads them each time you visit it again. Each permanent cookie has a particular expiration date. The cookie will cease to function after this date. We generally use them to make purchasing and sign-up services easier.

According to the purpose for which the cookies are used

• Technical or necessary cookies: Those that enable the user to browse through a website, platform or application and use the various options/services existing thereon (for example, to identify a session, access restricted-access places, remember items involved in a purchase, undertake the purchasing process of an order, or share content through social networks, etc.).

Due to their technical nature, this category also includes cookies which allow (as efficiently as possible) the management of the advertising spaces which, as one more element of design or “layout” of the service offered to the user, the publisher may have included in a website, application or platform, based on criteria such as the published content, without information being compiled on users for other purposes, such as personalising that advertising content or other content.

• Personalised cookies: Those that enable information to be remembered so that the user accesses the website with certain characteristics that can differentiate their experience from that of other users, such as the language, the number of results to be displayed when the user performs a search, the appearance or content of the website depending on the type of browser through which the user accesses the website or the region from which the website is accessed, the option to change the size of the text, the font, etc.

• Analytical cookies: These cookies are used to monitor and analyse the behaviour of the users of websites on which they are linked. The information collected by this type of cookie is used to measure the activity of websites, applications or platforms and to create browsing profiles of the users of these websites, applications and platforms. This is done in order for improvements to be made relating to the analysis of the usage data from the users of the service.

• Advertising cookies: these store information on the behaviour of users obtained through the continuous observation of their browsing habits, which makes it possible to develop a specific profile to display advertising in accordance with that.
