Frequently Asked Questions about Cookies

Why are there now so many notices about the use of cookies?	In 2012, an amendment was introduced to Article 22.2 of the Law on Information Society Services and Electronic Commerce (LSSICE) of 2002. Until then, it was assumed that websites informed users about the use of cookies in texts included under headings such as “Legal Notice”, “Terms of Use”, “Conditions of Use”, “Data Protection Policy”, etc. However, this was considered insufficient. The 2012 amendment established that users must give their consent to the use of cookies after being duly informed of the purposes for which they are used.
What are the penalties for failing to comply with cookie regulations?	Minor infringements may result in fines of up to €30,000, and serious infringements may reach €150,000, although case law has never reached such extremes, usually setting amounts between €500 and €25,000.
Can I delete cookies from my computer?	Yes, you can control or delete cookies whenever you wish; however, doing so may result in different website behaviour. You can also configure most browsers to stop accepting cookies. If you reject or delete them, some website features may not function correctly.
Are cookies a threat to my computer?	No. A cookie is a text file, not a program or plug-in. It cannot be used as a virus and cannot access your hard drive. It is the browser itself, not a person, that stores a website’s cookie when necessary.
Can cookies fill up my hard drive?	Although cookies take up very little space (just a few kilobytes), as you browse the internet their accumulation may eventually occupy a relatively large amount of disk space. For this reason, browsers and operating systems include automatic systems to prevent this, usually by setting a maximum number of cookies that can be stored. Once this number is exceeded, the browser will automatically delete the least-used cookies.
Who must comply with this regulation?	• Corporate websites of companies. • Corporate websites of self-employed professionals, whether used for business information or as online stores. • Online shops and other e-commerce platforms. • Media outlets or personal blogs that include any form of advertising. This applies both to companies and professionals established in Spain and to foreign websites targeting the Spanish public.
