What are cookies?

Cookies are a set of data that a server deposits in a user’s browser to collect standard Internet information logs and visitor behavior information on a Web site. In other words, these are small text files that are stored on the computer’s hard drive and are used to identify the user when he/she logs on to the website again. Its purpose is to record the user’s visit and store certain information. Its use is common and frequent on the web as it allows pages to function more efficiently, and to achieve greater personalization and analysis of user behavior.

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 typology includes:

  • Volume settings of video or sound players.
  • Video bitrates that are compatible with your browser.
  • Items stored in the “shopping cart” in e-commerce services such as online stores.

Geo-location cookies

These cookies are used to find out what country you are in when you request a service. This cookie is completely anonymous, and is only used to help target content to your location.

Registration Cookies

Registration cookies are generated once the user has registered or subsequently logged in, and are used to identify you in the services for the following purposes:

  • Keep the user identified so that if he/she closes a service, the browser, or the computer and at another time or another day re-enters the service, he/she will continue to be identified, thus facilitating his/her navigation without having to identify him/herself again. This functionality can be deleted if the user clicks on the [cerrar sesión] functionality, 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.

Additionally, some services may use connectors with social networks such as Facebook or Twitter. When the user registers for a service with credentials from a social network, he authorizes the social network to store a persistent Cookie that remembers his identity and grants him access to the services until it expires. The user can delete this Cookie and revoke access to services through social networks by updating their preferences in the specific social network.

Analytics Cookies

Each time a user visits a service, a third-party tool generates an analytics cookie on the user’s computer. This cookie, which is only generated during the visit, will be used in future visits to BIM GYM 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.
  • To know if the user accessing the site is new or a repeat visitor.

Important: Unless the user decides to register for a BIM GYM service, the cookie will never be associated with any personal data that can identify the user. These cookies will only be used for statistical purposes to help optimize the user experience on the site.

Advertising Cookies

This type of cookie allows extending the information of the advertisements shown to each anonymous user in the services of BIM GYM. Among others, the duration or frequency of viewing advertising positions, the interaction with them, or browsing patterns and/or user behaviors are stored as they help to form a profile of advertising interest. This way, they make it possible to offer to advertise relating to the user’s interests.

Third-party advertising cookies

In addition to the advertising managed by the BIM GYM website in its services, the BIM GYM website offers its advertisers the option to serve ads through third parties (“Ad-Servers”). This way, these third parties can store cookies sent from BIM GYM services from users’ browsers, as well as access the data stored in them.

The companies that generate these cookies have their own privacy policies. Currently, the BIM GYM website uses the Doubleclick platform (Google) to manage these services. For more information, please see the following:
