Cookie charter

What are cookies?

Websites commonly use cookies. A cookie is a small text file containing information which is saved on the drive of your device (e.g. computer, tablet or mobile phone) when viewing a website using a browser. They are sent to your browser by the website’s server. A cookie file allows its issuer to identify the device on which it is installed during the period of validity or registration of the cookie in question. Cookies do not enable individuals to be personally identified.

Why do we use cookies?

We use 2 types of cookies for the purposes described below. Certain types of technical cookies (session cookies in particular) are essential for the proper functioning of the website. Deleting them may cause difficulties with browsing and prevent you from subscribing to online offers.

1. Technical cookies

Technical cookies are cookies which are strictly necessary for the operation of the website. They provide access to private and personalised areas of our website using personal identifiers (session identifier cookies), they implement security measures (e.g. when a request is made to connect to certain content or a service again after a certain period of time), they allow or facilitate communication for the provision of a service by electronic means when it is expressly requested by the user. These cookies are deleted as soon as you close your browsing session.

These cookies are issued and installed by the website. They have a very short lifespan, in the majority, only that session, and one year at most.

2. User metrics cookies (generation of statistics)

These cookies collect information about how visitors use a particular website. For example, the number of visits, the most visited pages, etc. These cookies establish traffic analysis statistics which help us to improve the content of our website by informing us how popular certain content is with its users.

Example

Google Analytics, the statistics tool used by the website, generates various cookies with a unique identifier, the lifespans of which are limited to between 1 minute and 24 months. We collect the IP address in order to identify the city from which you are logging in. The last two bytes are anonymised immediately. Google Analytics cannot therefore identify individual Internet users using the data collected.

The data collected is not transferred to third parties or used for other purposes.

How can you manage cookies?

There are several options for managing cookies. Configuring your browser may change the way you browse the Internet and will affect access to certain services requiring the use of Cookies.

If your device is shared with other people

If your device is used by several people and has more than one browser installed, we cannot ensure with certainty that the services and advertisements intended for your device correspond to your own particular needs and not those of another user.

You can choose to modify your cookie preferences at any time using the method described below.

Configuring of your browser

You can configure your browser to save cookies on your device, to reject all of them, or to reject those from certain publishers. You can also configure your browser to ask you whether you want to accept or reject cookies before they are saved on your device.

Different browsers can be configured in different ways. This will be described in your browser’s help menu.
