Cookie Policy

What is a cookie and what information does it store?

A cookie is a small text file that is stored in your browser when you visit almost any website. Cookies have been used since the first web browsers appeared 20 years ago. A cookie is not a virus, Trojan, worm, spam, spyware or a pop-up window.

The data stored in cookies is of a technical nature and include personal preferences, personalisation of content, usage statistics, links to social networks, access to user accounts, etc. Cookies do not store sensitive information about you, such as credit card or bank details, photographs, your ID or personal information, etc.

They are useful because they allow a website to remember your visit when you return to the page later. The aim of the cookie is to adapt the content of the website to your profile and needs. Without cookies the services offered by any page would be significantly reduced.

The web server is not associated to you as a person but to your web browser. In fact, if you regularly browse a website with Internet Explorer and try browsing the same website with Firefox or Chrome you will see that the website does not recognise you as the same person because it links to the browser and not you as a person.
