A cookie is a small text file that a website stores in your browser. It lets the site remember things such as the language you chose or a preference you set, so you do not have to set them again on every visit.
This page explains exactly which cookies axoltec.com uses, what each one is for and how long it lasts. It follows the guidance of the Spanish Data Protection Agency (AEPD).
axoltec.com uses technical cookies only. There is no advertising, no profiling and no third-party analytics. You are not tracked across other websites.

| axoltec_cookies | This website | Remembers the choice you made in the cookie notice, so it is not shown to you again. | 1 year |
| wordpress_*, wp-settings-* | This website | Keeps the session open and remembers admin panel preferences. Only set for users who log in to manage the site, never for ordinary visitors. | Session or up to 1 year |

Visitor numbers are counted on our own server, without cookies, without a unique identifier and without sending anything to third parties. Only aggregate data is recorded: pages viewed, the site that referred the visit, country and type of device. This does not allow anyone to be identified individually.
On every page of this website, the typefaces, the scripts and the images are served from axoltec.com itself, so no other company receives your IP address just because you opened a page here. The one exception is the payment page, described below.
The contact form and the book waiting list send what you type to this website so it can be answered, and nothing else. Spam is filtered on our own server: no external CAPTCHA is used and no tracking cookie is placed when you fill in a form.
The first time you arrive, a notice appears at the bottom of the screen with two options of equal weight: accept or reject. Whichever you choose is recorded and the notice is not shown again.
You can change that decision whenever you want from the Cookies link at the bottom of any page.
You can also delete or block cookies from your browser. Each one does it its own way: look for the privacy or site data section in Chrome, Firefox, Safari or Edge. Blocking technical cookies may mean the site does not remember your language or your choice on this notice.
If anything here is unclear, write to j.lopez@axoltec.com and it will be answered.

Guide
Where would you like to go?
I am a guide on this site, not Jorge and not an engineer. Anything technical, he answers himself.
Four things, all of them about how a vessel behaves in water:
Jorge reads every enquiry himself. You will get a much more useful first reply if you tell him:
There is no price list, and any figure I gave you here would be wrong.
It depends on the vessel, on how much geometry already exists and on how many conditions have to be simulated — a single resistance run and a full seakeeping study are not the same job.
What Jorge can do quickly is tell you whether your case is a two-week job or a two-month one. Send him the outline and he will come back with scope and a figure.
Ask for a quoteDel Fondo del Océano al Borde del Espacio — the physics that forces vehicles into the shape they have.
A vertical journey from the ocean floor to the edge of space: submarines, container ships, hydrofoils, aircraft, rockets. Written in Spanish, still being written.
