Cookies are small text files that a website stores in your browser when you visit it. They're used to make the site work (for example, to keep you logged in), to remember your preferences, and to gather usage statistics or show ads.
When you enter the site we ask which cookies you accept. You can change your choice at any time:
Essential cookies are always installed, as they're required for the site to work. All others are only installed if you accept them in the banner.

| Essential | cm_cookies | ConciertosMalaga | Remembers your cookie choice (local storage, not technically a cookie). | 13 months |
| Essential | Local storage (favourites, follows) | ConciertosMalaga | Remembers the concerts you save and the artists you follow. | Until you clear it |
| Analytics | _ga, _ga_* | Google (Analytics) | Measures, in aggregate, how many people visit the site and which pages they view. | 2 years |

Advertising cookies are only used once the site shows Google AdSense ads. For visitors in the European Economic Area, analytics, advertising and external-content cookies are only installed after you give consent in the banner.
Some concert, artist or venue pages include YouTube videos, Spotify players, Facebook/Instagram reels or Google Maps. Until you accept "external content" cookies, these elements won't load: instead you'll see a notice with a button to load them yourself if you want. Loading them may let that provider (Google, Spotify or Meta) install its own cookies, subject to its own privacy policy. Ticket links take you to third-party sites (El Corte Inglés, venues, promoters) with their own cookie policies.
Besides the button above, you can block and delete cookies from your browser:
You can also turn off Google's personalised advertising at Ads Settings and opt out of Google Analytics measurement with its opt-out add-on. If you block essential cookies, you may not be able to log in or save favourites.
The data controller is Fernando Fernández Ariza. For any question about cookies or your data, write to hola@conciertosmalaga.com. More information in the privacy policy.
