Cookies can be technical, for personalisation, analytical or for advertising purposes. However, the only cookies used by Telefónica Seguros are technical and analytical cookies.
Technical cookies allow the user to navigate through our website, platform or application, and to use the different options or services they provide, including those that the editor uses to allow the management and operation of the website, platform or application, and to enable its functions and services.
