2. What is a cookie?
A “cookie” is a small information file sent to the User’s browser and stored within the User’s terminal (e.g. computer, smartphone). The information stored by cookies includes the pages visited, the type of browser you are using, your IP address, and even the information you have entered on a site so that you do not have to re-enter it. Cookies are in no way likely to damage the User’s terminal. They are created for a limited time when a user’s browser loads a particular website: the site sends information to the browser, which then creates a text file. Each time the user returns to the same site, the browser retrieves this file and sends it to the website’s server.

3. What cookies do we use?
Cookies can be session-specific, being stored in your browser only during your browsing session, i.e. until you leave the site, at which point they are deleted. Some of them may also be persistent: they remain in your browser after the session (unless you specifically delete them).
We use two types of cookies:
– Essential cookies. These are the cookies that are essential because they allow the site to function properly (forms, site language, etc.) or to store your choice in terms of cookies.

This type of cookie also includes the management of your choice of cookies (via the Axeptio solution).The use of these cookies is based on our legitimate interest: they are intended to improve the functioning of our site and to ensure its proper operation. We are the only ones to use them and they are kept for a period of 13 months;
– A cookie for marketing analysis of traffic and content use (provider Hubspot). It requires your explicit consent to be implemented and is kept for a period of 13 months.
