Cookie policy
Language note. This is a courtesy translation. The binding version of this document is the Spanish original at Política de cookies, which prevails in the event of any discrepancy.
This policy explains what cookies and similar technologies andaventura.com uses, for what purpose and how you can manage them, in accordance with article 22.2 of Spanish Law 34/2002 (LSSI-CE) and Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR).
It is written from a technical check of the site, not from a template. If you find a discrepancy between what is declared here and what your browser loads, write to info@andaventura.com.
1. What a cookie is
A cookie is a small file that a website stores on your device when you visit it. It is used to remember information between pages or between visits. The same legal regime covers other technologies that store and read data on the device, such as browser local storage (localStorage) and advertising identifiers.
2. Current state of the site
It is worth starting with the actual state, which is unusual:
- Andaventura sets no first-party cookies. An anonymous visit to the site generates no first-party cookie. There is no analytics, no preferences and no session.
- Article pages load Google’s advertising script. It is the only third-party technology on the site.
- Advertising is not being served yet. While the site is not running on its final domain, the ad units return no advertising and, as a result, the advertising cookies described below are not actually set.
3. Where each thing loads
| Area of the site | Technologies loaded |
|---|---|
| Home page, section pages, search, legal pages | None. Only content served from our own domain. |
| Article pages | Google’s advertising script (AdSense) and the associated Google domains. |
| Administration panel | WordPress technical session cookies. They affect only the people who run the site, not visitors. |
4. Technologies detected
4.1 Technical or necessary
| Name | Provider | Purpose | Type | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|---|
wordpress_logged_in_*, wordpress_sec_*, wp-settings-* |
Andaventura (first party) | Keep the session open and the administration panel preferences. Not set for visitors: they appear only when logging in as an administrator. | Technical | Session and up to 1 year, depending on the cookie |
Technical cookies are exempt from the consent requirement because they are essential to provide the service requested.
4.2 Preferences
| Name | Provider | Purpose | Type | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|---|
google_auto_fc_cmp_setting |
Local storage used by Google’s script to record the configuration of the consent mechanism. It is the only storage entry detected on an anonymous visit. | localStorage | Persistent until browser data is cleared |
4.3 Advertising and behavioural advertising (third parties)
These will activate when advertising starts being served. They are managed by Google, not by Andaventura, and are set from its own domains:
| Name | Provider | Purpose | Type | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|---|
__gads, __gpi |
Google (googlesyndication.com) | Select and display ads, measure their performance and cap how often the same ad is shown. | Advertising | Up to 13 months depending on the cookie |
IDE, test_cookie |
Google (doubleclick.net) | Ad personalisation and measurement of ad effectiveness. | Behavioural advertising | Up to 13 months / session |
NID |
Google (google.com) | User preferences associated with Google services, including advertising. | Advertising | Up to 6 months |
Accuracy note: the names and durations of Google’s cookies are determined by Google and may vary. The list above corresponds to those its documentation associates with ad delivery. Once the consent mechanism is configured, the specific and up-to-date list will be available in the preferences panel itself.
4.4 Communication with third-party domains without storage
On article pages the browser communicates with ep1.adtrafficquality.google and ep2.adtrafficquality.google, Google services for ad quality control and fraud detection. That communication involves the processing of connection data even where it does not always store information on the device.
5. Consent: state and what is missing
For users in the European Economic Area and the United Kingdom, advertising cookies require prior, informed and granular consent, with the ability to accept, reject and manage preferences with equal ease.
The actual state, without dressing it up:
- The site does not yet show a consent panel.
- The plan is to use Google’s own consent mechanism (AdSense privacy messages), compatible with its policies for EEA users.
- Activating it is a pending step in the advertising account and will be completed before the site starts serving ads on its final domain.
- Until then no advertising cookies are set, because no ads are delivered.
Once the panel is live, you will be able to accept, reject or manage your preferences from the site itself, and change your decision at any time.
6. How to manage cookies from your browser
Independently of the above, you can configure your browser to block or delete cookies. All major browsers allow this from their privacy settings, and some offer private browsing modes that do not keep storage between sessions.
Bear in mind that blocking technical cookies can affect how some sites work. In the case of Andaventura, blocking all cookies does not prevent you from reading any content.
7. Changes to this policy
This policy will be reviewed whenever the technologies used change, the consent mechanism is activated or any new service is added. The version in force is the one published on this page.
