5. Cookies: how do we use them?
5.1. What is a cookie?
A cookie is a text file that may be placed on a terminal when consulting an online service with browser software. A cookie file allows its issuer, during its period of validity, to recognize the terminal concerned each time that terminal accesses digital content containing cookies from the same issuer.
In any event, cookies placed on your browsing terminal with your consent are destroyed 13 months after they are placed on your terminal.
5.2. What are the cookies issued on our Sites used for?
The cookies we issue allow us to:
- establish statistics and volumes of traffic and use of the various elements making up our Sites (sections and content visited, paths), allowing us to improve the interest and ergonomics of the Site and, where applicable, the Services;
- adapt the presentation of our Sites to the display preferences of your terminal (language used, display resolution, operating system used, etc.) during your visits to our Site, according to the hardware and viewing or reading software that your terminal contains;
- store information relating to a form you have filled out on our Site (registration or access to your account) or to products, services, or information you have chosen on our Site (subscribed service, content of an order basket, etc.);
- allow you to access reserved and personal areas of our Site, such as your Account, using identifiers or data that you may have previously entrusted to us and to implement security measures, for example when you are asked to log in again to content or a service after a certain period of time.
5.3. How can you control the cookies used?
In accordance with applicable regulations, you can refuse the use of cookies that are not strictly necessary.
Furthermore, you can configure your browser software at any time so that cookies are saved in your terminal or, conversely, that they are rejected (either systematically or according to their issuer). You can also configure your browser software so that the acceptance or refusal of cookies is offered to you occasionally, before a cookie can be saved in your terminal.
Warning: any settings are likely to modify your internet browsing and your conditions of access to certain services requiring the use of cookies. We decline all responsibility for consequences related to the degraded functioning of our Services resulting from the impossibility of saving or consulting the cookies necessary for their functioning and which you have refused or deleted. This would be the case if you tried to access our content or services that require you to identify yourself. This would also be the case when we (or our service providers) could not recognize, for technical compatibility purposes, the type of browser used by your terminal, its language and display settings, or the country from which your terminal appears to be connected to the Internet.
