1. What Are Cookies

Cookies are small files stored on a user's device that help the website remember technical and user preferences.

In addition to cookies, local storage and other technologies with similar purposes may be used.

We divide storage and tracking technologies into necessary, analytics, and marketing categories.

Necessary (strictly necessary): authentication, sessions, security, basic settings.
Analytics: measuring service use and improving the product (enabled only after consent).
Marketing: advertising campaign and retargeting technologies (inactive at launch).

At launch, only necessary technologies are active, while analytics is enabled only after clicking "Accept" in the consent banner.

Marketing cookies and advertising trackers will be introduced later and only after this policy and the consent mechanism are updated.

You can accept or reject non-essential cookies in the consent banner. Rejecting them does not block access to the platform's core functionality.

Later, the platform may provide a dedicated settings center for more granular management of cookie categories.

Consent can be withdrawn at any time; until withdrawal, processing based on previously given consent is considered lawful.

An up-to-date list of applied cookie groups and similar technologies should be maintained below.

spaintrails_cookie_consent | SpainTrails (first-party) | stores the user's consent preference | 180 days | necessary
access/refresh/session cookies | SpainTrails API (Railway backend) | authentication, security, and session integrity | according to session/token lifetimes | necessary
_ga and related analytics cookies | Google Analytics | aggregated analytics of visits and events | depends on Google Analytics policy | analytics (consent only)

You can also restrict or delete cookies through your browser settings, although this may affect the proper functioning of some platform features.
