Cookies Policy

Users are informed that this website uses its own and third-party cookies.

  1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small data files generated on the user's computer that allow the user to store information generated by their activity on the network. Among other things, cookies allow LALIGA to store and retrieve information about a user's or their equipment's browsing habits and, depending on the information they contain and how their equipment is used, they can be used to recognize the user.

First-party cookies are sent to the user's terminal equipment from a computer or domain managed by LALIGA and from which the service requested by the user is provided. On the other hand, third-party cookies are sent to the user's terminal equipment from a computer or domain not managed by LALIGA, but by another entity that processes data obtained through cookies.

The Website uses session cookies (they collect and store data when the user accesses and browses the Website) and persistent cookies. Persistent cookies are stored on the user's terminal so that the collected data can be accessed and processed for a period defined by the cookie's controller, which can range from a few minutes to several years.
