Privacy policy

Our website uses cookies and/or other tracking technologies under the conditions described below.

Definition of cookies and other tracking technologies

The term “cookies” refers to a small file stored by a server on your device (computer, phone, tablet, and so on) and associated with a web domain (in most cases, all the pages of a single website). This file is automatically sent back during subsequent contacts with the same domain.

It may for instance include:

• HTTP cookies
• “Flash” cookies

Other tracking technologies may also be used, including:

• the result of a unique fingerprint of your device in the case of “fingerprinting” (the calculation of a unique device identifier based on its configuration, for tracking purposes)
• invisible pixels or “web bugs”
• access to information stored on the device through APIs (LocalStorage, IndexedDB, advertising identifiers such as the IDFA or Android ID, GPS access, and so on)
• any other identifier generated by software or an operating system (serial number, MAC address, unique device identifier (IDFV), or any set of data used to compute a unique fingerprint of the device, for example through fingerprinting methods).

In this Privacy Policy, we use the term “Cookies” to refer without distinction to cookies and to any other tracking technology stored and/or read when you visit our website, whatever the type of device you use: computer, smartphone or tablet connected to the internet.

While browsing our website, one or more cookies may be created on your computer. However, these cookies do not automatically identify you. They only store information related to your browsing on our website (pages viewed, date and time, and so on).

These Cookies serve multiple purposes, such as:

• tracking your browsing for statistical or advertising purposes;
• personalising the user interface (display language or service presentation);
• enabling authentication with a service, including mechanisms designed to secure authentication, for example by limiting robotic or unexpected access attempts.

Prior consent

Your prior consent is required for the use of certain Cookies.

When you visit our website for the first time and we intend to place a Cookie on your device:

• you are informed by means of an information banner displayed at the top or bottom of the page; and
• you are invited to accept, refuse, or configure your choices regarding the use of these Cookies.

Since your consent must result from an unambiguous action, any action other than the one explicitly allowing acceptance (for example, closing the consent banner) is considered a refusal.

Some of these Cookies are exempt from consent when they meet the criteria set out in the applicable guidelines on cookies and other trackers. However, we wish to inform you of their use and remind you that your browser settings may allow you to block them, with potentially negative effects on the operation of our website.

You may refuse the storage of cookies at any time by configuring your browser:

• Google Chrome: Settings > Privacy and security > Cookies and other site data
• Mozilla Firefox: Options > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data
• Safari: Settings > Privacy > Block all cookies
• Microsoft Edge: Settings > Cookies and site permissions
