Cookie Notice

Effective Date: October 2024

This Cookie Notice describes the use of online cookies by Fundación Fondo de Mujeres del Sur. This Cookie Notice applies to websites that we own or control and that link to this Cookie Notice.

What are Cookies?

A cookie is a small file that is downloaded to a device, such as a computer or mobile device, when you access a website. A cookie is a small piece of data, usually consisting of letters and numbers, that a website asks your browser to store on your computer or mobile device. Cookies allow a site to “remember” your actions or preferences over time. Therefore, when you visit our site, cookies may store or retrieve information on your browser, which may be about your preferences and/or your device. We use cookies, including third-party cookies, to operate and improve the site, measure our audience, enhance your experience and provide you with content and advertising tailored to your interests based on your browsing activities and actions on this site and others. You can find a list of relevant cookies we use on our websites by clicking the “Cookie Settings” button.

For more information about cookies or local storage, including how to see what cookies have been set and how to manage, block and delete them, please review: http://www.allaboutcookies.org/.

Types of cookies we use

Our websites may use session cookies and persistent cookies to give you a more personal and interactive experience on our websites:

  • Session cookies allow a website to remember your actions during a browsing session and expire once you close your web browser. Session cookies may be used for a variety of purposes, such as remembering that you are logged into one of our websites.
  • Persistent cookies are stored on your device and may continue to exist until they expire or you delete them. Persistent cookies may be used for a variety of purposes, such as remembering users’ preferences and choices when using a site or to target advertising.

Cookies can be categorised as first-party or third-party cookies. Our websites use both types of cookies:

  • First-party cookies: First-party cookies are set directly by Fundación Fondo de Mujeres del Sur, from the website domain name displayed in the URL window.
  • Third-party cookies: Third-party cookies are cookies that are set by a domain name other than the one you are visiting. For example, if we set a cookie on fiserv.com using a cookie from another domain name that we own or control, that cookie is a “third-party” cookie. Similarly, we may also allow our service providers or partners to set cookies directly on our website from their own domain name; these are also third-party cookies.

Our websites use the following types of cookies for the purposes detailed below:

  • Essential cookies: These cookies are strictly necessary to provide you with services available through our websites and to enable you to use some of its features. These cookies cannot be switched off in our systems and enable core functionality such as security, network management and accessibility. Without these cookies, services you have asked for cannot be provided and we only use these cookies to provide you with those services. These cookies are used to collect information such as whether you are logged in and which pages you navigate between during a browsing session.
    Please note that you can set your browser to block these cookies, but this may affect how our site functions.
  • Functionality cookies: These cookies are used to improve the functionality of our websites or to remember the choices you make when using our site. They allow us to offer you additional features (for example, embedding videos). They are also used to avoid you having to re-select your preferences each time you visit our site. If you disable this category, your experience on the site may be affected.
  • Analytics and performance cookies: These cookies are used to collect information about traffic to our websites and how users use our websites. The information collected may include, but is not limited to, your operating system, manufacturer and model, device identifier, browser type, screen resolution, IP address, the website you visited before navigating to our website, general location information such as city, province or geographic area; and information about your use of our websites (for example, pages you accessed, when you accessed these pages, how long you spent on the page and information you entered on a page).
  • Social media cookies: These cookies are used when you share information using a social sharing button or “Like” button (or similar) on our websites, or when you link your account or interact with our content on or through a social media platform such as Facebook or Twitter. These cookies collect information about your social media interaction with our site, such as whether or not you have an account on the social media site and whether you are logged in to the social media site when you interact with content on our site.
  • Targeting and advertising cookies: These cookies track your browsing habits to allow third-party advertising networks to show you ads that may be relevant to you. These cookies use information about your browsing history to group you with other users who have similar interests or browsing behaviours. Based on the cookies placed by the third-party advertising network on our websites and other sites, advertisers may display advertisements that may be relevant to your interests on our websites and while you are on third-party websites.

Please note that this button is only available on pages that place cookies.

Online behavioural advertising

Some of the third parties that place cookies on our websites may be members of organisations or programmes that offer individuals choices regarding the use of their browsing behaviour for targeted advertising purposes. In addition to the consent options on our websites, users may opt out of receiving targeted advertising on websites through participating members of the following organisations or programmes:


Please note that we may also work with companies that offer their own opt-out mechanisms and they may not participate in the opt-out mechanisms linked above.
If you choose not to receive personalised ads through the links above, you will still see online ads, but they may not be relevant to you. Not all companies that offer online behavioural advertising are members of the organisations listed above, so even if you choose not to receive them, you may still receive some cookies and personalised ads from companies that are not listed and are not part of these programmes. If you would like to manage your preferences specifically for our website, please use the Cookie Settings button when available.

Cookie Notice does not cover third-party websites

Please note that this Cookie Notice does not apply to, and we are not responsible for, the cookies used by third-party websites to which we may link from the site.

Third-party cookies

Much of the technology that enables us to deploy cookies is provided by third-party cookie providers. These third-party cookie providers may have access to cookie data. We do not control the storage of or access to these cookies. You should review the privacy policy and cookie notices of these third-party cookie providers to find out how they use cookies and whether your cookie data will be transferred to a third country.
