In accordance with Deliberation No. 2019-093 of 4 July 2019, adopting guidelines on the application of Article 82 of the French Data Protection Act of 6 January 1978, amended, regarding read and write operations on a user’s device (in particular cookies and other trackers), the Company informs Users that trackers are used to record certain information stored in the memory of their computing equipment/hardware. This information is for the purposes of improving the use and functioning of the Website, and also for understanding how the Website is used by Users, as well as the tools and services that the Company makes available to them. These trackers do not contain any personal information relating to Users. Accordingly, no processing of personal data is carried out in respect of these trackers.

When accessing the Website for the first time, an alert message informs the User about the use of trackers and invites the User to accept the purposes of this usage.  Accepting or refusing the use of trackers has no impact on the User’s browsing experience.
In particular, the alert message details:

  • the specific purposes of the trackers used;
  • the option to withdraw consent at any time.
  • To guarantee the User’s free, informed and unequivocal consent, the banner will not disappear until he continues browsing.

Without the User’s express prior consent, cookies will not be placed or read:
-    If the User visits the Website (homepage or directly on another Website page) and does not continue browsing: the simple absence of action cannot be deemed an indication of wishes; 
-    Or if a User clicks on the link present in the banner allowing him to configure cookies and, as may be relevant, refuses the placing of cookies.

The User can choose to disable cookies and other tracers at any time. His browser can be configured to inform him of the cookies placed on his device and ask him to accept or refuse them. 

The configuration of each browser is different. It is described in the help menu of the browser which will allow the User to know how he wishes to change his cookie choices.
