To ensure the proper functioning of our site, we sometimes need to save small data files on the information and devices of our users. Most major websites do the same.

What is a cookie?

A cookie is a small text file that websites store on your computer or mobile device when you use them. It allows sites to remember your actions and preferences (username, language, character size and other display settings) for a given time, so you do not have to re-enter this information each time you visit a site or navigate from one page to another.

The cookies that we use allow us:

• to establish statistics and the use of various elements of our website (headings and content visited, preferred routes), allowing us to improve the interest and ergonomics of our services;
• to adapt the presentation of our website to your device’s display preferences (language used, display resolution, operating system, etc.) during your visits to our site, depending on the hardware and software viewing or reading that your mobile device operates;
• to memorize information relating to a form that you have completed on our site (registration or access to your account) or to products, services or information that you have shown a preference for on our website (subscribed service, favourites, etc.);
• to allow you to access reserved and personal areas of our website, such as your account, using identifiers or data that you may have previously entrusted to us;
• to implement security measures, for example, when you are asked to sign-in again to access content or a service after a certain amount of time.

Cookies issued on our site by third parties

Regarding third party applications integrated into our site

We may include third party computer applications on our site that allow you to share content from our site with other people or to let others know about your review or opinion about content from our site. This is particularly in the case of the "Share" and "Like" buttons, coming from social networks such as, but not limited to, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Viadeo, etc. The social network providing such an application button is likely to identify you because of a button like this, even if you may not have used this button during your visit to our site. In fact, this type of application button can allow the social network to follow your navigation on our site, just because your social network account was activated on your device (an open session) during your navigation on our site. We have no control over this process used by social networks to collect information about your navigation on our site and associated with the data. We invite you to consult the privacy policies of these social networks to learn about the purposes of use, including advertising, and navigation information they can collect through these application buttons. These protection policies must allow you to exercise your choices with these social networks, including setting up your usage accounts for each of these networks.
