Cookie Policy
Last updated: June 2026
This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, which cookies we use on the Costa Health website (costahealth.es), and how you can control them. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile) when you visit a website. They allow the website to recognise your device on future visits and remember certain information about your preferences or actions.
We also use similar technologies, including localStorage and sessionStorage, which store data locally in your browser rather than sending it to a server. These are used to remember whether the cookie notice has been dismissed and to prevent duplicate analytics events.
2. Categories of Cookies We Use
Essential cookies
These cookies are strictly necessary for the website to function. They cannot be switched off. They do not store any personally identifiable information.
Analytics cookies
These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website, which pages are most popular, and where visitors come from. You can control or block these through your browser settings and the opt-out tools below.
Marketing cookies
These cookies are used to measure advertising performance and improve how campaigns are attributed. You can control or block these through your browser settings and the opt-out tools below.
