1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that websites install on a user’s browser or device when they visit them. Among other things, they allow the storage and retrieval of information about a user’s browsing habits or their device and, depending on the information they contain and how the device is used, they may be used to recognise the user.
2. Who uses the information stored in cookies?
The information stored in the cookies on this website is used, as applicable, both by Benedit Solicitors SLP. (first-party cookies) and by third-party service providers (third-party cookies), as detailed in section 4.
3. Types of cookies according to their purpose
3.1. Technical or necessary cookies
These are essential for the website to function correctly and do not require user consent, under Article 22.2 LSSI-CE. They allow, for example, remembering the language selected by the user (multilingual management via WPML) or managing site security.

These allow information to be remembered so that the user can access the service with certain characteristics that may differentiate their experience (for example, browsing language).
