Cookie Policy
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that websites store on a user's browser when they visit a web page. They allow the site to remember information about the visit, such as language preferences, session data, or other configuration options. Cookies may be set by the website itself (first-party cookies) or by third-party services integrated into the page. The use of cookies is regulated under Spanish Law 34/2002 (LSSI-CE) and the EU ePrivacy Directive.
Cookies we use
Currently, checkfps.io uses the following cookies: (1) cookie-consent — First-party, technical cookie, duration 1 year; stores consent preference. (2) NEXT_LOCALE — First-party, technical cookie, duration 1 year; stores language preference. (3) _ga — Third-party (Google Analytics), analytical cookie, duration 2 years; identifies unique users. (4) _gid — Third-party (Google Analytics), analytical cookie, duration 24 hours; distinguishes users in a session. Google Analytics cookies (3 and 4) are only set if the user accepts cookies via the banner. In the future, if Google AdSense is integrated, third-party advertising cookies may be added; this policy will be updated and consent will be requested accordingly.
Types of cookies
Cookies are classified according to various criteria. By origin, they may be first-party (set by the website's own domain) or third-party (set by a different domain). By purpose, they may be technical (necessary for the site to function), analytical (used to measure and analyse user navigation), or advertising (used to manage ads displayed on the site). By duration, they may be session cookies (deleted when the browser is closed) or persistent cookies (remain for a specified period). Currently, checkfps.io uses technical first-party cookies and analytical third-party cookies from Google Analytics, the latter only when the user has given consent.
How to manage cookies
Users can manage and delete cookies at any time through their browser settings. Instructions vary depending on the browser used: in Google Chrome, go to Settings > Privacy and Security > Cookies and other site data; in Mozilla Firefox, go to Options > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data; in Safari, go to Preferences > Privacy > Manage Website Data; in Microsoft Edge, go to Settings > Cookies and site permissions. Please note that disabling or deleting technical cookies may affect the proper functioning of the website and the browsing experience.
Consent
When visiting checkfps.io for the first time, an informational banner is displayed allowing the user to accept or reject non-essential cookies. If the user accepts, Google Analytics cookies are activated; if they reject, only strictly necessary technical cookies are used. The site implements Google Consent Mode v2, so Google Analytics does not collect identifying data until consent is granted. Users can change their decision at any time by clearing cookies from their browser settings, which will display the banner again on the next visit. The legal basis for technical cookies is legitimate interest; for analytical and advertising cookies, the user's prior consent.
Changes to this policy
CheckFPS reserves the right to modify this Cookie Policy at any time to adapt it to legislative changes, case law developments, or industry practices. Any substantial changes will be communicated through the website. We recommend that users periodically review this policy to stay informed about how we protect their information.
