According to European regulations, the user must be informed about the necessary cookies, and asked to accept or reject those for preferences and statistics.
On this website, there are different types of cookies, structured according to whether they are:
- necessary

You can accept or reject cookies.
The purpose is to remember your preferences (user name, language, etc.) for a specific period of time. Thus, you will not have to re-enter them when browsing our pages during the same visit.
Cookies can also be used to compile anonymised statistics about the browsing experience on our websites.
The two types of strictly necessary cookies we use allow us to:
- Store visitor preferences.
- Maintain our websites operational.

- If the visitor has accepted (or rejected) the site’s cookie policy.
- If the visitor has already responded to the pop-up window (so it does not ask again).

ANALYTICAL OPTIMISATION
We use them exclusively for internal research purposes to improve the service we offer to all users.
They are limited to evaluating how users interact with our websites anonymously: the data collected does not allow the user to be personally identified. These data are not shared with third parties or used for any other purpose. Anonymous statistics could be shared with contractors working on communication projects under a contractual agreement with the Government of Catalonia.
Now, as a user, you are free to reject them through the cookie banner that appears on the first page visited.
