In this website we collect and use information as indicated in our privacy policy. One way of doing this is through “cookies”. At CIHEAM Zaragoza, we use cookies for several things.

What is a cookie?

A “cookie” is a small piece of information that is saved on your browser (i.e. Google Chrome or Apple Safari) when you visit certain websites.

What ISN’T a cookie?

A cookie is not a virus, Trojan malware or a worm. Nor is it spam or spyware. A cookie does not open pop-ups.

What information does a cookie store?

Cookies do not usually store sensitive information about you such as credit card or bank details, photos or personal information, etc. Data stored by cookies is normally technical, such as statistics, personal preferences, browsing patterns etc.

The web server does not associate you as a person but to your web browser. In fact, if you normally use Chrome, try browsing the same website with Firefox and you will see that the website does not remember you because it is associating the information with the browser and not the person.

There are different types of cookie:

  • Technical cookies are the most elementary cookies that among other things tell us when a person or robot is browsing, when an anonymous user or registered user is browsing. They also perform basic tasks as on any other dynamic website.
  • Analytics cookies collect information on browsing patterns, favourite sections, products consulted, use times, language etc.
  • Advertising cookies show adverts according to browsing patterns, country of origin, language, etc.
