Cookies Policy

What are cookies?

The Arca Dev website (hereinafter the Website) uses cookies. Cookies are files sent to a browser by a web server to record the User’s activities on a specific website. The primary purpose of cookies is to provide the user with faster access to the selected services. In addition, cookies personalize the services offered by the Website, facilitating and offering each user information that is of interest or that may be of interest to them, based on their use of the Services.

The Website uses cookies to personalize and facilitate the user’s navigation as much as possible. Cookies are only associated with an anonymous user and their computer and do not provide references that allow the user’s personal data to be deduced. The user may configure their browser to notify and reject the installation of cookies sent by the Website, without this affecting the user’s ability to access the content of said website. However, we would like to point out that, in any case, the quality of the Website’s operation may decrease.

Registered users, who register or have logged in, will be able to benefit from more personalized services tailored to their profile, thanks to the combination of the data stored in the cookies with the personal data used at the time of their registration. These users expressly authorize the use of this information for the indicated purpose, without prejudice to their right to reject or disable the use of cookies.

Likewise, the Web will be able to know all the services requested by users, so that they can provide or offer information appropriate to the tastes and preferences of each user.

What types of cookies exist

Cookies, depending on their permanence, can be divided into:

Session cookies: The former expire when the user closes the browser.

Persistent cookies: The latter expire depending on when the purpose for which they serve is fulfilled (for example, so that the user remains identified in the Services) or when they are manually deleted.

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

Performance Cookies: This type of cookie remembers your preferences for the tools found in the services, so you do not have to reconfigure the service each time you visit. As an example, this type includes:

  • Volume settings for video or sound players.
  • Video streaming speeds that are compatible with your browser. Geo-location cookies: These cookies are used to find out which country you are in when you request a service. This cookie is completely anonymous, and is only used to help orient the content to your location.

Registration Cookies: Registration cookies are generated once the user has registered or subsequently opened their session, and are used to identify them in the services with the following objectives:

  • Keep the user identified so that, if they close a service, the browser or the computer and at another time or another day they enter said service again, they will continue to be identified, thus facilitating their navigation without having to identify themselves again. This functionality can be deleted if the user clicks on the “log out” function, so that this cookie is deleted and the next time the user enters the service, the user will have to log in to be identified.
  • Check whether the user is authorized to access certain services, for example, to participate in a contest.

Analytical cookies: Each time a User visits a service, a tool from an external provider generates an analytical cookie on the user’s computer. This cookie, which is only generated during the visit, will be used in future visits to the Web Services to anonymously identify the visitor. The main objectives pursued are:

  • Allow anonymous identification of browsing users through the “cookie” (identifies browsers and devices, not people) and therefore the approximate counting of the number of visitors and their trend over time.
  • Anonymously identify the most visited content and therefore the most attractive to users.
  • Know if the user who is accessing is new or repeating visit.
  • Important: Unless the user decides to register for a Web service, the “cookie” will never be associated with any personal data that could identify him or her. These cookies will only be used for statistical purposes that help to optimize the Users’ experience on the site.

Behavioral advertising cookies: This type of “cookie” allows for more information on the advertisements shown to each anonymous user on the website.
