Additional Cookie Types Based on Their Purpose:

  • Performance Cookies: These cookies remember your preferences for tools on the services, so you do not need to reconfigure the service every time you visit. Examples include volume settings for video or sound players, compatible video streaming speeds, and items saved in the shopping cart in e-commerce services.

  • Geo-location Cookies: These cookies are used to determine which country you are in when requesting a service. These cookies are completely anonymous and are used only to help target content to your location.

  • Registration Cookies: These cookies are generated once the user has registered or subsequently logged in, and are used to identify you in the services with the following objectives:

    • Keep the user logged in so that if they close a service, browser, or computer and return to the service at another time or day, they will remain logged in, facilitating navigation without having to log in again. This functionality can be removed if the user selects the [log out] option, which will delete the cookie and the next time the user enters the service, they will need to log in again.
    • Check if the user is authorized to access certain services, such as participating in a contest.
    • Some services may use social media connectors such as Facebook or Twitter. When a user registers with social media credentials, they authorize the social media network to store a persistent cookie that remembers their identity and provides access to services until it expires. The user can delete this cookie and revoke access to services through social media by updating their preferences on the specific social network.
  • Analytics Cookies: Each time a user visits a service, an external provider tool generates an analytical cookie on the user’s computer. This cookie, generated only during the visit, will be used on future visits to identify the visitor anonymously. The main objectives are:

    • Allow anonymous identification of browsing users through the cookie (identifies browsers and devices, not people), and therefore approximate counting of the number of visitors and their trend over time.
    • Identify anonymously the most visited and therefore most attractive content to users.
    • Determine if the user accessing the site is new or returning.

    Important: Unless the user registers for a service from Igor Lameiras Montero, the cookie will never be associated with any personal data that can identify them. These cookies are only used for statistical purposes that help optimize the user experience on the site.

  • Advertising Cookies: These cookies help to enhance the information of ads shown to each anonymous user on the services of Igor Lameiras Montero. This includes storing the duration or frequency of ad placements, interactions with them, or user browsing patterns and/or behaviors to build an advertising interest profile. This allows for offering advertising relevant to the user’s interests.

  • Third-Party Advertising Cookies: In addition to the advertising managed by Igor Lameiras Montero on its services, the websites of Igor Lameiras Montero offer advertisers the option to serve ads through third parties (“Ad-Servers”). This means that these third parties can store cookies sent from Igor Lameiras Montero’s services from users’ browsers and access the data stored in them.

    Companies generating these cookies have their own privacy policies. Currently, Igor Lameiras Montero’s websites use the Doubleclick platform (Google) to manage these services. For more information, visit:
