What types of cookies are used on this site?
The following types of cookies are used on this site:
Necessary Cookies
Necessary cookies are essential to the proper functioning of our site. They guarantee basic functionalities such as the state of visited pages, and navigation. Here's how the use of these cookies works:
- Compatibility: Necessary cookies ensure that our site functions correctly on different platforms and devices, offering a consistent experience to users.
Necessary cookies do not collect personally identifiable information. They do not track your browsing behavior outside of our site, and they are essential to offering you an online experience without issues.
It is important to note that these cookies are enabled by default when you visit our site. They do not require explicit consent, as they are indispensable to the proper functioning of the site and its services.
Statistical Cookies
The primary role of statistical cookies is to collect anonymous information about your browsing behavior. This helps us better understand how you interact with our content, which pages you visit most frequently, and how you use our site as a whole.
More specifically, we use Google Analytics, a site analysis tool provided by Google. Here's how the use of statistical cookies works:
- Collection of anonymous data: When you visit our site, Google Analytics activates cookies that collect information such as your IP address, browser type, operating system, and the pages you visit. This data is anonymous and does not allow us to personally identify you.
- Complete analysis: The information collected by statistical cookies helps us obtain an overview of the use of our site. We can see which pages are the most popular, which sections are less visited, and how visitors interact with our content.
- Improvement of the user experience: By better understanding your preferences and behavior, we are able to improve the user experience on our site. We can adapt our content based on what you appreciate the most, which allows us to better respond to your needs.
It is important to emphasize that statistical cookies do not store personally identifiable information. We remind you that the collected data is aggregated and anonymous.
If you do not want Google Analytics to record your behavior, we recommend that you download and install the following module on your browser to disable data collection: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en
Marketing Cookies
Marketing cookies are used to collect anonymous information about your browsing behavior and interactions with our content. This information helps us better understand your preferences and personalize your future interactions with our site.
More specifically, we use marketing cookies for two main purposes:
- Tracking of advertising campaigns: When you interact with our ads on platforms such as Google Ads and Facebook, cookies are activated to record these interactions. This allows us to evaluate the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns, measure the number of clicks, views, and actions taken in response to our ads. This information helps us optimize our marketing strategies and offer you more relevant content.
- Retargeting (remarketing): Marketing cookies also allow us to set up retargeting campaigns. When you visit our site and interact with certain pages or products, these actions are recorded via cookies. Later, when you navigate on other sites or online platforms, such as Google or Facebook, you may see our ads that are specifically adapted to your interests, based on your browsing history on our site.
It is important to emphasize that marketing cookies do not store personally identifiable information such as your name, address, or contact information. The collected data is anonymous and does not allow us to directly identify you.
Why are marketing cookies useful for us?
We use these cookies to present targeted offers both within our site and outside of it when you navigate on other sites. These cookies can also be used to determine if a user has visited our site after seeing one of our ads, for example. The purpose of these cookies is to evaluate our audience and our ability to convert your visit into an interaction, whether on our website or after visiting it.
The cookies in this classification provide us with support to count the number of visitors to our website and to track the path of users. This approach allows us to adapt and improve the functioning of our site to facilitate access to the information you request.
