Browser settings are often inadequate. You can refine your settings further if you wish by targeting the purpose of the cookie:
• For audience and performance measuring: audience measuring and performance cookies are deposited by third-party companies, but they help us to improve our website and make it user-friendly.
This link takes you to a page providing you with more information about these solutions and a system for refusing the audience monitoring tracers:
We would remind you, however, that clearing these cookies deprives us of important statistical information necessary for improving our website and personalising them according to your profile and interests.
• For advertising: our website has no advertising spaces. This means that information collected is essentially used to offer you suitable adverts on third-party sites visited by you, based on information collected via the audience measuring tools listed previously (the tools used are the same for both purposes).
Alongside this, a number of advertising professional platforms give you the option of refusing or accepting cookies used by member companies. These centralised mechanisms do not block the display of adverts, and only prevent the installation of cookies for adapting adverts to your areas of interest. For example, you can go to the Your Online Choices site and prohibit the installation of these cookies on your device. This site is provided by digital advertising professionals belonging to the EDAA (European Digital Advertising Alliance) and is managed in France by the Interactive Advertising Bureau France. However, we cannot guarantee that this tool will be totally effective or work smoothly, as it is dependent on the participation of advertising stakeholders in the system.
• For social networks: the website has buttons to redirect you to our social network pages. If you have an account with these social networks, they can also follow your browsing activity on our site.
To find out more about how these networks use the tracers and how you can configure your account, please click on the following links :
• We might also offer you connection services proposed by social networks and certain Internet players (e.g. Facebook connect, Google connect and Apple Connect) to facilitate registration and purchasing. The use of this functionality is at your discretion and, if you already use these services, enables you to register on our site without having to re-enter your personal information, by giving us permission to access this information. For further information about information-sharing and using these tools, please click on the following links:
Finally, we would like to inform you that a number of different programmes are available to add to your browser, enabling you to block and manage all types of tracer, including Abine and Ghostery.
For further information about cookie management and collection, you can also go to the CNIL – Commission Nationale de l’Iinformatique et des Libertés website and click on “Cookies: tools for managing them”
