Cookies Policy
1. What is a cookie?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit our website. They allow us
to recognise your device on subsequent visits and remember your preferences.
2. Consent and use of cookies
In accordance with the ePrivacy Directive and CNIL guidelines, we must obtain your freely
given and explicit consent before placing non-essential cookies on your device. This notably
concerns cookies used for audience measurement (unless an exemption applies) and for
advertising purposes.
Consent must be given through a clear, affirmative action, such as clicking an “Accept”
button. Continuing to browse the site without explicit consent does not constitute consent.
Audience measurement without consent (where applicable): when audience measurement
is implemented without consent, it complies with the CNIL exemption conditions (strictly
statistical purpose, limited to our website, no cross-referencing/targeting, limited lifetimes,
and the possibility to opt out).
3. Managing your cookies
Our cookie banner allows you to select “Accept all,” “Refuse all,” or “Manage my
preferences.” Refusing must be as easy as accepting.
You can change your decision at any time via a dedicated link in the website footer.
4. Types of cookies and purposes
•
Essential (technical): necessary for the operation and security of the site (exempt
from consent).
• Audience measurement (statistics): understanding traffic and improving the site.
• Advertising and social networks (where applicable): personalisation of content and
ads, as well as social interactions.
The list of partners/third parties involved (or their categories) is available via “Manage my
preferences” and kept up to date.
5. Retention periods and validity of your choices
• Exempt audience-measurement cookies have a maximum lifetime of approximately
13 months; associated data may be retained for up to 25 months.
• Other cookies subject to consent: durations limited to what is strictly necessary and
specified in “Manage my preferences.”
Your choice (consent or refusal) is stored for about 6 months to prevent repeated prompts.
You can change it at any time via the link in the footer.
