The main obligations assumed by Bravo Students in this matter are as follows:
- Transparency: to inform clearly and accessibly about the use of cookies and similar technologies, their purposes, duration and, where applicable, the third parties involved.
- Consent: to obtain, where legally required, valid consent before installing non-necessary cookies, through a mechanism that allows the user to accept, reject or configure cookies in a granular way and with equal accessibility.
2. DEFINITION AND GENERAL FUNCTION OF COOKIES
2.1. What are cookies?
Cookies and similar technologies are files or devices that are downloaded to the user’s terminal or that allow access to information already stored therein when browsing a website, application or digital platform. These technologies can serve very diverse purposes, such as enabling the technical operation of the site, remembering preferences, measuring audience, analysing browsing behaviour or displaying personalised advertising, depending on their nature and configuration.
Nature of Cookies
- Definition: They are small text files or other data storage and retrieval mechanisms that are installed on or consulted from the user’s browser or device.
- Functionality: They allow the website to remember the user’s actions, preferences or decisions, such as language, consent settings, session data or certain display options.
Purposes and Benefits
Variety of Uses: Cookies may be used, among other purposes, to:
- Ensure the technical operation of the website: securing navigation, protecting forms or keeping the session active.
- Remember user preferences: retaining settings such as language, configuration or cookie choices.
- Carry out analytical measurements: understanding how users interact with the site to improve content, usability or performance.
- Manage advertising or campaign measurement: tracking advertising effectiveness or, where applicable, displaying personalised ads.
Practical Example: A user can benefit from cookies that remember their language, allow correct display of content, manage previously granted consent or facilitate browsing the website.
Use of Cookies by Bravo Students
Specific Application: In section 3 of this policy we will detail the cookies and similar technologies used on https://www.bravostudents.com, their purpose, duration and type.
2.2. Types of cookies based on the period of time they remain active
Cookies can be classified according to the time during which they remain active on the user’s device:
Session cookies
- Temporary functionality: they are designed to collect and store data while the user accesses the website.
- Purpose: they allow browsing to be maintained, information to be retained during an ongoing process, or services requested in a single session to be provided.
- Characteristics: they are deleted when the browser is closed or when the session ends, unless the specific technology provides otherwise.
Persistent cookies
- Extended duration: they remain stored on the user’s device for a defined period, which may vary for each cookie.
- Utility: they allow remembering preferences, configurations or choices made on previous visits.
- Privacy considerations: their use must comply with the principle of data minimisation and be limited to the periods strictly necessary for the corresponding purpose.
Importance of Cookie Management
- Compliance with regulations: the correct categorisation and management of cookies is essential to comply with the LSSI-CE, the GDPR and the criteria of the Spanish Data Protection Agency (AEPD).
- Privacy-focused approach: appropriate measures must be adopted to reduce the impact on privacy, especially when persistent or third-party cookies are used.
2.3. Types of cookies based on the entity that manages them
Cookies can also be classified according to the entity that manages them:
First-party cookies
- Definition: they are those sent to the user’s device from a server or domain managed by the website’s editor itself, from which the requested service is provided.
- Common use: they are typically used for the technical operation of the site, to remember preferences or to manage certain internal functions.
Third-party cookies
- Definition: they are those sent to the user’s device from a server or domain that is not managed by the editor, but by another entity that processes the data obtained through the cookies.
- Common use: they are typically used for analytics services, embedded players, security, advertising, campaign attribution or cross-site tracking.
Special Considerations
- Functional classification: even if a cookie is installed from the editor’s domain, it may be considered a third-party cookie if the information collected is materially managed by a third party for its own purposes or as part of its service.
- Transparency: when third parties are involved, the user must have sufficient information about their identity, purpose and links to their policies where appropriate.
2.4. Types of cookies based on their purpose
The cookies used on a website may serve different purposes:
Technical or strictly necessary cookies
- Description: these are essential to enable browsing, the operation of the website and the provision of services expressly requested by the user.
- Examples of use: remembering the session, managing load balancing, protecting forms or saving consent choices.
- Importance: they are essential for the operability and security of the website.
Preference or personalisation cookies
- Description: they allow information to be remembered so that the user can access the service with certain personalised characteristics.
- Examples of use: language, regional settings or certain visual preferences.
Analytics or measurement cookies
- Description: they allow the number of users to be quantified and the use of the website to be measured and statistically analysed.
- Examples of use: finding out which pages are visited, which channel users come from, or detecting errors and performance improvements.
Behavioural advertising or marketing cookies
- Description: they store information about user behaviour obtained through the continuous observation of their browsing habits.
- Examples of use: measuring campaigns, attributing conversions, building advertising profiles or showing personalised ads.
- Privacy considerations: their use requires especially careful and transparent management and, as a general rule, must be based on prior consent unless they are exempt.
2.5. Cookies exempt from the consent requirement
It should be noted that, under article 22.2 of the LSSI-CE, cookies used for any of the following purposes are exempt from the obligation to obtain consent:
- Allowing only the communication between the user’s equipment and the network.
- Strictly providing an information society service expressly requested by the user.
In this regard, certain cookies for user input, authentication or session identification, user security, session multimedia playback, load balancing or interface customisation may be considered exempt, provided that they are strictly necessary for the stated purpose. The exemption does not eliminate the general duty to inform about their existence and function.

- the Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) approved by the European Commission, together with supplementary measures where necessary; and/or
- any other enabling mechanism provided for in applicable data protection regulations at any given time.

4. THIRD-PARTY SERVICES
4.1. Integration with third-party services
In certain cases, this website may integrate third-party services or functionalities that install cookies or similar technologies, either to play content, strengthen security, obtain analytics measurement, attribute campaigns or carry out advertising tracking. The activation of these services may involve the processing of data by such third parties in accordance with their own policies.
According to the cookie inventory used on this website, the following providers may be involved, among others: Google (including Google Analytics, Google Ads, reCAPTCHA, YouTube and DoubleClick), Meta and TikTok. Consent management tools and WordPress environment functionalities such as Complianz, WPML or Elementor are also used, whose cookies may be first-party or depend on their technical configuration.
4.2. Guidance for users
- Recommendation: We recommend that you carefully review the privacy and cookie policies of any third parties whose services may be activated from this website.
- Important information: Accepting certain categories of cookies may mean that these third parties receive information about your browsing, device, preferences or interactions.
- Scope: The mere existence of external links or corporate profiles on social networks does not in itself imply the installation of third-party cookies, unless embedded elements are loaded or specific measurement or marketing tools are activated.
4.3. Privacy and cookie considerations
- Third parties’ own policies: Each third-party provider applies its own privacy and cookie policy, which may differ from that of Bravo Students.
- User responsibility: It is the user’s responsibility to review such policies in order to understand how these third parties handle their personal data and manage their cookies.

Once the validity period of each cookie has expired, it may be automatically deleted from the user’s device, unless the user has previously deleted it through the browser settings or the cookie management panel. In the case of third parties, the retention of data obtained through their cookies may also be governed by their own privacy or cookie policies.
