LABORATOIRE GARANCIA COOKIES POLICY

When you log in to our Website, we (or our partners) may be led, subject to your choices, to install various cookies on your Workstation allowing us to recognise which web browser you use during the term of validity of the Cookie concerned (your “Workstation”).

This page allows you to understand what a Cookie is, how we use it and the way you can make choices concerning Cookies.

WHAT IS A “COOKIE” ?

A “Cookie” is a generic term which refers to a text file stored on a dedicated area of the workstation’s hard disc (e.g.: Computer, tablet, smartphone, etc.) of a media user (internet, applications, etc.), at the time of consultation of content or online publicity. This Cookie file allows the issuer to identify the terminal on which it is stored and to monitor activities of the media user, and to remember information, such as user preferences or information previously entered by the user in forms on the media, during the term of validity or storage of the Cookie. Some Cookies are essential for use of the media, others allow for optimisation and personalisation of content displayed, and others to display publicities.

Cookies do not allow for direct identification of a user, but identify a browser or terminal. Information pertaining to content consulted on a media are directly associated to a log in within the Cookie. When a user browses on a media, the log in is associated to pages visited, as well as more widely to the background on the media and interactions (number of clicks for instance): It is therefore possible to monitor browsing of a single user on the media.

Use of Cookies allows browsing data to be associated to the user profile regardless of the workstation used thanks to cookie exchange technologies implemented by partners who publish these Cookies, generally communication agencies or digital publicity service providers, so as the background of a user may be monitored regardless of the media or workstation used.

WHAT ARE THE COOKIES USED ON OUR WEBSITE?

When you log in to our Website, we may be led to install four types of Cookies on your Terminal:

- Technical Cookies to make browsing possible on the website, guarantee security of the website and allow you to access various products and services on the website.

- Online payment security cookies to prevent payment fraud.

- Audience measurement cookies allowing us to draft frequentation statistics, to compare these with those of other sites and decide on actions (such as sending you an email)

- Publicity cookies allowing us, and third parties, to display publicities on the site and others adapted to your profile established by combination of data between your browsing habits and data from client databases of the Laboratoire Garancia and third parties.

- Sharing cookies allowing you to share content on our website with other people or to inform other people of your consultation or opinion concerning site content.

HOW ARE YOU INFORMED ?

When you visit our Website for the first time and Laboratoire Garancia plans to install Cookies other than “technical Cookies”, we inform you that we use Cookies using an information banner at the top of the page.
