What are cookies?

Cookies are a set of data that a server places in the user’s browser to collect standard Internet log information and information about visitor behavior on a website. In other words, they are small text files stored on the computer’s hard drive that serve to identify the user when they reconnect to the website. Their purpose is to record the user’s visit and store certain information. Their use is common and frequent on the web because they allow websites to operate more efficiently and enable greater personalization and analysis of user behavior.

What types of cookies exist?

The cookies used on our website are session cookies and third-party cookies, and they allow us to store and access information related to language, the type of browser used, and other general characteristics predefined by the user, as well as to monitor and analyze the activity carried out, with the aim of introducing improvements and providing our services in a more efficient and personalized way.

Depending on their duration, cookies can be divided into session cookies or persistent cookies. Session cookies expire when the user closes the browser. Persistent cookies expire when the purpose for which they were created is fulfilled (for example, to keep the user logged in to Rinku.tech services) or when they are manually deleted.

__utmb Third-party (Google Analytics) 30 minutes Used to determine new sessions or visits. Not exempt
__utmc Third-party (Google Analytics) End of session Configured for use with Urchin. Not exempt
__utmz Third-party (Google Analytics) 6 months Stores the source or campaign explaining how the user reached the website. Not exempt

Additionally, depending on their purpose, cookies can be classified as follows:

Performance Cookies

These cookies remember your preferences for tools found in the services, so you do not have to reconfigure them each time you visit. Examples include:

  • Volume settings for video or audio players.

  • Video streaming speeds compatible with your browser.

  • Items saved in the “shopping cart” in e-commerce services such as online stores.

Geo-location Cookies

These cookies are used to determine which country you are in when requesting a service. This cookie is completely anonymous and is only used to help tailor content to your location.

Registration Cookies

Registration cookies are generated once the user has registered or later logged in, and are used to identify them in the services with the following objectives:

  • To keep the user identified so that if they close a service, browser, or computer and later return, they remain logged in, making navigation easier without having to log in again. This functionality can be removed if the user clicks “log out,” which deletes the cookie and requires the user to log in again on their next visit.

  • To check whether the user is authorized to access certain services, for example, to participate in a contest.

Additionally, some services may use connectors with social networks such as Facebook or Twitter. When the user registers for a service using social network credentials, they authorize the social network to store a persistent cookie that remembers their identity and grants access to services until it expires. The user can delete this cookie and revoke access via social networks by updating their preferences on the corresponding social network.

Analytics Cookies

Each time a user visits a service, an external provider tool generates an analytics cookie on the user’s computer. This cookie, generated only during the visit, will serve in future visits to Rinku.tech services to anonymously identify the visitor. The main objectives are:

  • To allow anonymous identification of browsing users through cookies (identifying browsers and devices, not people) and thus estimate the number of visitors and trends over time.

  • To anonymously identify the most visited content and therefore what is most attractive to users.

  • To determine whether the user is new or a returning visitor.

Important: Unless the user decides to register for a Rinku.tech service, the cookie will never be associated with any personal data that could identify them. These cookies are used solely for statistical purposes to help optimize the user experience on the site.

Advertising Cookies

These cookies allow expanding the information of the ads shown to each anonymous user in Rinku.tech services. Among other data, they store the duration or frequency of ad display, interaction with ads, and browsing patterns and/or user behavior, helping to build an advertising interest profile. This allows delivering advertising tailored to the user’s interests.

Third-party Advertising Cookies

In addition to advertising managed by Rinku.tech websites, Rinku.tech websites offer advertisers the option to serve ads through third parties (“Ad-Servers”). These third parties may store cookies sent from Rinku.tech services via users’ browsers, as well as access the data stored within them.

The companies that generate these cookies have their own privacy policies. Currently, Rinku.tech websites use the DoubleClick (Google) platform to manage these services. For more information, visit:
