Temporary Cookies expire depending on when the objective for which they serve is fulfilled (for example, so that the User remains identified in the Services of our website) or when they are manually deleted.

Persistent Cookies: These are those that have an expiration date distant in time and remain hosted on the user's computer even after the session ends.
