COOKIE POLICY

COOKIE POLICY

This website, like most sites on the Internet, uses Cookies to improve and optimize the user experience. Below you will find detailed information about what “Cookies” are, the types used on this website, how you can disable them in your browser, and how to specifically block the installation of third-party Cookies.

WHAT COOKIES ARE AND WHY WE USE THEM ON SUNTHEBRAND

A cookie is a file that is downloaded to the user's device when accessing certain web pages to store and retrieve information about the browsing performed from that device.

Cookies allow the website, among other things, to store and retrieve information about the user's choices and habits. At SunTheBrand, we use them to personalize the experience within our websites, identify and remember registered users, and facilitate navigation.

It is important to highlight that the use of cookies does not provide personal data of the user, who remains anonymous to SunTheBrand.

The user can configure their browser not to accept cookies, in which case the personalization of the experience will not apply, although they will still be able to access the content of our websites normally.

More information about what cookies are and how they work can be found on the Wikipedia page.

WHAT TYPES OF COOKIES ARE USED ON SunTheBrand WEBSITES

Cookies, depending on their duration, can be divided into session or persistent Cookies. The former expire when the user closes the browser. The latter expire when the purpose they serve is fulfilled (for example, to keep the user logged in on SunTheBrand websites and 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 don’t have to configure the service each time you visit. Examples of this type include:

  • Volume settings for video or audio players.
  • Video streaming speeds compatible with your browser.

Geolocation Cookies

These Cookies are used to determine which country you are in when requesting a website or service. This Cookie is completely anonymous and is only used to help tailor content to your location.

Login Cookies

Login Cookies are generated once the User has registered or subsequently logged in, and are used to identify them on the websites and services with the following purposes:

  • Keep the user logged in so that if they close a service or website, the browser, or the computer, and return at another time or day, they remain logged in, facilitating navigation without having to log in again. This feature can be disabled if the user clicks the “Logout” function, which deletes this Cookie and requires the user to log in again next time they visit the website.
  • Check if the user is authorized to access certain services, for example, to participate in a contest.
  • Additionally, some services may use third-party connectors such as Facebook, Twitter, or Google. When the user registers on a service with credentials from a social network or third-party identification system, they authorize it to save a persistent cookie that remembers their identity and grants access to the website until it expires. The user can delete this cookie and revoke access via social networks or third-party identification systems by updating their preferences on the specified social network.

Analytics Cookies

Each time a User visits a Website or Service, a tool from an external provider (Google Analytics, comScore, and similar) generates an analytics cookie on the user's device. This cookie, generated only on the visit, will serve in future visits to SunTheBrand services to anonymously identify the visitor. The main objectives are:

  • Allow anonymous identification of browsing users through the “Cookie” (identifies browsers and devices, not people) and thus approximate counting of the number of visitors and their trends over time.
  • Identify anonymously the most visited and therefore most attractive content for users.
  • Know if the user accessing is new or a returning visitor.

Important: Unless the User decides to register on the SunTheBrand website, the cookie will never be associated with any personal data that could identify them. These cookies will only be used for statistical purposes to help optimize the user experience on the site.
