Cookie Policy

Music Factory's website - Armazém da Música Lda. (from now on the Web) uses Cookies. Cookies are files sent to a browser via a web server to record user activities on a specific website. The first purpose of Cookies is to provide the user with faster access to selected services. In addition, Cookies personalize the services offered by the Web, providing and offering each user information that is or may be of interest to them, taking into account their use of the Services.

The Web uses Cookies to customize and facilitate user navigation as much as possible. Cookies are only associated with an anonymous user and his computer and do not provide references that allow the user's personal data to be deduced. The user can configure his browser to notify and reject the installation of Cookies sent by the Web, without this affecting the user's ability to access the content of the website. However, we would like to point out that, in any case, the quality of the functioning of the website may be reduced.

Registered users, who register or who have logged in, will be able to benefit from more personalized and profile-oriented services, thanks to the combination of data stored in cookies with personal data used at the time of registration. These users expressly authorize the use of this information for the indicated purposes, without prejudice to their right to refuse or disable the use of cookies.

Likewise, the Web will be able to know all the services requested by users, so that they can facilitate or offer information adapted to the tastes and preferences of each user.

What types of cookies are there?

Cookies, depending on their Permanence, can be divided into:

Session cookies

They expire when the user closes the browser.

Persistent cookies

They expire depending on when the purpose for which they are used is fulfilled (for example, for the user to remain identified in the Services) or when they are manually deleted.

Depending on their Owner, they can be divided into:

Own cookies

These are those that are sent to the user's terminal equipment from a computer or domain managed by the publisher itself and from which the service requested by the user is provided.

Third party cookies

These are those that are sent to the user's terminal equipment from a computer or domain that is not managed by the editor, but by another entity that processes the data obtained through cookies.

Furthermore, depending on their Purpose, Cookies can be classified as follows:

Income cookies

This type of Cookie remembers your preferences for the tools found on the services, so you don't have to reconfigure the service each time you visit. By way of example, this type includes:

Video or audio player volume settings.
Video streaming speeds that are supported by your browser.

Geolocation cookies

These cookies are used to find out which country you are in when you request a service. This Cookie is completely anonymous and is only used to help target content to your location.

Registration cookies

Registration Cookies are generated once a user has registered or subsequently opened his session, and are used to identify him in the services for the following purposes:

To keep the user identified so that, if you close a service, browser or computer and at another time or another day re-enter the service, you will continue to be identified, thus facilitating your navigation without having to identify yourself again. This functionality can be removed if the user presses the “close session” functionality, so that this Cookie is deleted and the next time the user enters the service, he will have to log in to be identified.
Verify that the user is authorized to access certain services, for example, to participate in a competition.

Analytical cookies

Each time a user visits a service, a tool from an external provider generates an analytical Cookie on the user's computer. This Cookie, which is only generated during the visit, will be used on future visits to the Web Services to anonymously identify the visitor. The main objectives pursued are:

Allow anonymous identification of browser users through the “Cookie” (identifies browsers and devices, not people) and therefore the approximate count of the number of visitors and their trend over time.
Anonymously identify the most visited content and therefore the most attractive to users.
To find out if the user who is accessing is new or repeats a visit.
Important: Unless the user decides to register for a service on the Web, the “Cookie” will never be associated with any personal data that could identify him. These Cookies will only be used for statistical purposes to help optimize the user's experience on the website.

Behavioral Advertising Cookies

This type of “cookie” allows you to expand information about the advertisements shown to each anonymous user on the Web Services. Among others, the duration or frequency of visualization of advertising positions, the interaction with them, or the user's browsing patterns and/or compartments are stored, as they help to shape an advertising interest profile. In this way, they make it possible to offer advertising related to the user's interests.

Third-party advertising cookies

In addition to advertising managed by the Web on its Services, the Web offers its advertisers the option of serving advertisements through third parties (“AdServers”). In this way, these third parties can store the Cookies sent from the Web Services from the Users' browsers, as well as access to the data stored therein.
