The data controller reserves the right to use cookies, with the user's consent where applicable laws or regulations so provide, to facilitate navigation on this site and personalize the information displayed.

Types of cookies
 

Cookies are divided into “session” and “persistent” cookies. The former are deleted once the browser is closed; the latter are stored until they expire or are deleted. The session cookies used are intended to speed up the analysis of Internet traffic and facilitate users' access to the services offered by the site. Session cookies are mainly used during authentication, authorization, and navigation in services accessed via registration. Most browsers are set to accept cookies. If you do not wish to accept cookies, you can set your computer to refuse them or display a warning when they are stored.

If the data subject refuses the use of cookies, some features of the site may not function correctly and some services may not be available. The use of so-called session cookies is strictly limited to the transmission of session identifiers, necessary to allow secure and efficient exploration of the site.

This data is technical in nature, has temporary validity, and is not collected for the purpose of identifying users. However, due to its functioning and in combination with other data held by third parties (such as the data subject's Internet service provider), it could allow identification. First-party cookies are readable only by the domain that created them.

​

Third-party cookies:
 

These are created and readable by domains external to this site. The software used creates a cookie in order to generate usage statistics. The data generated by this cookie is stored at Google Inc. For the operation of cookies in Google Analytics, consult the official documentation provided by Google at the URL: http://code.google.com/apis/analytics/docs/concepts/gaConceptsCookies.html
