1. What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small file placed on your device (computer, smartphone, tablet) when you visit a website. It allows your browser to be recognised, information to be stored and your experience to be improved.
2. Categories of Cookies Used
Strictly necessary cookies (exempt from consent) Essential to the operation of the Site: login session, basket, security, storage of your consent choices. The Site cannot function properly without them.
Audience measurement / statistical cookies (consent required) The Platform currently does not deposit any measurement cookies. This category is displayed in the consent banner for transparency, but no such tool is enabled today.
Functional cookies (consent required) Store your preferences (language, display) to personalise your experience.
Marketing / advertising cookies (consent required) The Platform currently does not deposit any marketing or advertising cookies. No Meta pixel, no ad networks, no retargeting.
3. Consent
On your first visit, a banner allows you to accept, refuse or configure non-essential cookies. No cookie subject to consent is placed before your choice. You may change your preferences at any time via the "Manage cookies" link in the footer.
Refusal is as easy as acceptance, and consent is retained for a maximum period of 6 months before being requested again.
