Cookies used by the website are only associated with an anonymous user and their computer, and do not provide the user’s personal data.

By using cookies it is possible that the website’s server recognises the web browser used by the user in order to make browser simpler, for example allowing access to users who have previously signed up, and giving them access to services, promotions or competitions exclusively reserved for them without them having to sign in on each visit.

COOKIE POLICY

This is the SOCIEDAD ESPAÑOLA DE ENFERMERÍA NEFROLÓGICA’s [SPANISH SOCIETY OF NEPHROLOGY NURSING’s] (SEDEN’s) policy on collecting and processing cookies, in compliance with that provided in Article 22.2 of Law 34/2002, of 11 July, regarding information society services and electronic commerce (“LSSICE” in Spanish).

The cookies are stored on the user’s terminal equipment (computer or mobile device) and gather information when the user visits the following websites of SOCIEDAD ESPAÑOLA DE ENFERMERÍA NEFROLÓGICA (SEDEN): 

The cookies are used to improve website usability, learn user habits or browsing requirements in order to better adapt to them, as well as obtain information for statistical purposes. In the case of users who are already clients of the SOCIEDAD ESPAÑOLA DE ENFERMERÍA NEFROLÓGICA [SPANISH SOCIETY OF NEPHROLOGY NURSING] (SEDEN), the information gathered by the cookies will also serve as identification when accessing the various tools that the SOCIEDAD ESPAÑOLA DE ENFERMERÍA NEFROLÓGICA [SPANISH SOCIETY OF NEPHROLOGY NURSING] (SEDEN) provides to manage its services.

This cookie policy will apply to users who voluntarily visit the SOCIEDAD ESPAÑOLA DE ENFERMERÍA NEFROLÓGICA [SPANISH SOCIETY OF NEPHROLOGY NURSING] (SEDEN) websites, fill in data collection forms, access the tools that the SOCIEDAD ESPAÑOLA DE ENFERMERÍA NEFROLÓGICA [SPANISH SOCIETY OF NEPHROLOGY NURSING] (SEDEN)  provides to its clients to manage its services, or use any other service on the website that involves the communication of data to the SOCIEDAD ESPAÑOLA DE ENFERMERÍA NEFROLÓGICA [SPANISH SOCIETY OF NEPHROLOGY NURSING] (SEDEN), or the access of data by the SOCIEDAD ESPAÑOLA DE ENFERMERÍA NEFROLÓGICA [SPANISH SOCIETY OF NEPHROLOGY NURSING] (SEDEN) for the provision of its services.

The SOCIEDAD ESPAÑOLA DE ENFERMERÍA NEFROLÓGICA [SPANISH SOCIETY OF NEPHROLOGY NURSING] (SEDEN) informs users of its websites of the existence of cookies and that the cookie policy is available to read for information regarding their use and purpose. By continuing to browse on this website, said users recognise and accept this policy.

The SOCIEDAD ESPAÑOLA DE ENFERMERÍA NEFROLÓGICA [SPANISH SOCIETY OF NEPHROLOGY NURSING] (SEDEN) provides information on the types of cookies it uses:

What are cookies?

Cookies are files or devices that are downloaded onto users terminal equipment to store data that can be updated and recovered by the entity responsible for its installation. In other words, files that are downloaded onto your computer when you access certain websites. Among other things, cookies allow a website to store and recover information on a user’s browsing habits or their equipment, and depending on the information that they contain and the way in which they use their equipment, can be used to recognise the user.

Information on cookies.

  • User entry cookies [1]
  • User identification or authentication cookies (only session cookies)
  • User security cookies[2]
  • Multimedia player session cookies.
  • Load balancing session cookies.
  • User interface customisation cookies.
  • Certain plug-in cookies to exchange social content[3]

These cookies therefore, are excluded from the application scope of Article 22.2 of the LSSI, and it will not be necessary to inform users of them or obtain consent regarding their use. On the other hand, it will be necessary to obtain the consent regarding the use of any other type of cookies, both first-party and third-party, session or persistent, which do not fall outside the application scope of Article 22.2 of the LSSI and for which this guide will provide useful pointers.

Having said this, in the interests of transparency, it is recommended that users are informed about the cookies which are not included within the scope of Article 22.2, either in the cookie policy or in the

privacy policy (for example, “This website uses cookies for the functioning and provision of the services offered therein”).

In any case, cookies may serve more than one purpose (multi-purpose cookies), and therefore, there is the possibility that a cookie can fall outside of the scope of application of article 22.2 of the LSSI for one or more of its purposes and not for others, with the latter being subject to the scope of application of this article. Quoting the Working Group of Article 29, this should “encourage website owners to use a different cookie for each purpose”[4]

Regarding the cookie configuration or management systems referred to below in this guide, when multi-purpose cookies are used for two or more different purposes and are not exempted from the scope of application of Article 22.2 of the LSSI, these cookies must only be used if all the purposes that have been grouped together are accepted. For example, if a cookie serves two purposes, but the user only accepts one of them, then the cookie must not be used, unless the management system employed allows the different purposes of these multi-purpose cookies to be processed distinctly, so that the user can accept one purpose and not another, thus allowing the cookie to only operate for the accepted purpose.

Analytical cookies: these allow their controllers to follow and analyse user behaviour on websites to which they are linked, as well as gauge advertising impact. The information collected by this type of cookie is used to measure activity on the website, application or platform, in order to introduce enhancements depending on the analysis of service user data.

Behavioural advertising cookies: these store information on user behaviour obtained through continuously observing their browsing data, which allows them to be specifically profiled and shown appropriate advertising.

Depending on their managing entity:
