GRUPO OSBORNE can use cookies when a User is browsing through its sites and pages, whether on its own or through a third party contracted to offer measurement services. Cookies are files sent to a browser by a web server to record user activity on their website.
Cookies are essential for the functioning of the Internet. They cannot damage the User’s device, and, if they are activated in the browser configuration, they help us identify and resolve possible errors in the way the website works, as cookies enable everything to function correctly and can track the user’s browsing activity.
None of the cookies installed on the GRUPO OSBORNE Website can extract information from a hard disk or steal personal information.

When the User allows cookies to be received, they can find out which server is using the cookies; they should refer to the instructions for their browser to find out how to do this. Users can configure their browser to receive an on-screen warning of cookies being received, so that they can stop them being installed on their hard disk.

Users do not need to permit the installation of cookies sent by GRUPO OSBORNE, or a third party acting on its behalf, to use the GRUPO OSBORNE website, although the User must initiate a user session for each of the services that requires registration or login.

What purpose do the cookies installed by GRUPO OSBORNE serve?
The cookies used by GRUPO OSBORNE, or a third party acting on its behalf, are associated only with an anonymous User and their computer.
These tools do not obtain details of the user’s name or surname, or the postal address from which they are connecting. The information collected is related, for example, to the number of pages visited, the language, the social network on which our news is published, the city to which the IP address from which the user accesses the site is assigned, the number of users who visit the website, the frequency and recurrence of their visits, the length of the visit, the browser they use, and the operator and type of terminal from which they make the visit. To this end, GRUPO OSBORNE’s servers can automatically detect the User’s IP address and the domain name used.
