COOKIE POLICY
In order to comply with legal provisions, HEALTHTECH BIO ACTIVES S.L.U. (hereinafter, “HTBA“) hereby informs you that www.htba.com (hereinafter, the “Web Site”) uses cookies and/or similar technologies, including tracking tags, which may be executed during your browsing session.
The purpose of this cookie policy is to inform the user, in a clear and complete manner, about the functioning and purpose of the cookies and similar technologies that may be installed on your device throughout your navigation of the Website.
1. What are cookies?
A cookie is a file that is downloaded to the terminal from which the user accesses the Website (whether it is a PC, smartphone, tablet or other type of device with Internet connection capacity) and which allows HTBA to store or retrieve information about various variables such as the number of times the site has been visited, identification as a registered user, maintenance of sessions, remembering forms or language preferences, and performing security or analytical functions.
Along with cookies, the Website may use similar technologies, such as tracking tags or pixels, which allow us to collect and process information about user behavior without necessarily storing data in the user’s browser. These technologies are executed via code fragments and scripts that are triggered during browsing and are subject to the same legal framework.
2. What kind of cookies and other technologies are used on this Website?
The cookies and other tracking technologies used on this Website can be classified according to different criteria. Depending on their origin, they may be first-party (set by HTBA) or third-party (set by external service providers). Based on their duration, they may be session cookies (which expire when you close your browser) or persistent cookies (which remain on your device for a longer period). According to their purpose, they may include:
- Technical Cookies: These are essential for the proper functioning of the Website and to enable its core features. They allow functionalities such as user session management, access to restricted areas, navigation fluidity, use of security elements, and playback of third-party multimedia content.

- Preference/personalization cookies: These cookies remember certain user preferences, such as language settings, number of search results displayed, or the region from which the user accesses the service. They help personalize the user experience and adapt the content or interface to specific user settings.
Other technologies: Tracking tags
In addition to cookies, the Website uses tracking tags, which are small pieces of code (often managed through platforms like Google Tag Manager) that collect information about how users interact with the site. These tags may trigger the loading of scripts or other technologies that perform analytics, marketing, or personalization functions. While not cookies themselves, tracking tags are considered similar technologies under the ePrivacy Directive and may also require user consent.
