4. Your cookie preferences

 

The activation of certain cookies used by the Site requires your consent. This is the case when these cookies are not strictly necessary for you to use this Site and/or do not fall under a legal exception to the requirement to obtain consent.

 

Your consent must be freely given, specific, informed, and unambiguous. It must be expressed through a positive action on your part.

 

To that end, we provide you with the following information:

  • The identity of the data controller(s), as indicated and regularly updated in the Site’s Privacy Policy
  • The purpose of each cookie’s use
  • Instructions on how to accept or refuse the use of cookies
  • The consequences of refusal
  • The existence of your right to withdraw your consent at any time

 

The information mentioned above will allow you to assess whether or not you wish to consent to the use of cookies via the cookie banner that appears, in particular, during your first visit to this Site.

 

You are free to accept or refuse the use of cookies that are not strictly necessary, from a technical standpoint, for browsing this site. In any case, refusing cookies will not prevent you from accessing the Site. Please note, however, that by refusing or deleting certain cookies, some features of the Site may no longer function, including access to content or services that require you to log in (if applicable).

 

(1) Select your cookie preferences via the cookie banner:

 

Your consent to the use of cookies is collected via the cookie banner that appears on the Site. This banner will offer you three choices presented via the following options: (i) accept all cookies, (ii) reject all cookies, and (iii) customize your cookie preferences.

 

You may withdraw your consent or change your cookie preferences at any time from your browser.

(2) Set general preferences through your browser settings

You can control the use of cookies by adjusting your browser settings. Below is some information on how to manage cookies in the most popular browsers.

 

In Mozilla Firefox:

Step 1: Select the “Tools” menu, then “Options,”

Step 2: Click the “Privacy” tab,

Step 3: In the ‘History’ drop-down list, under “Retention Rules,” select “Use custom settings for history” and configure your preferences.

 

In Microsoft Edge:

Step 1: Select the “Settings” menu

Step 2: Click “View advanced settings.”

Step 3: In the “Cookies” section, select your preferred settings.

 

In Google Chrome:

Step 1: Click the icon to display the settings menu, then click “Options”

Step 2: In the “History” section, select “Use custom settings for history,”

Step 3: Choose the desired level in the “Cookies” section.

 

You can also enable the “Do Not Track” setting, which is available on most browsers. Your browser will then send a signal to the websites you visit to inform them that you do not wish to enable tracking cookies. This setting may therefore prevent certain tracking cookies and components from being placed on your device (but does not guarantee that all such technologies will be disabled).

 

Managing cookies via browser settings does not replace your choices made via the cookie banner.

 

(3) No Choice

If you choose not to make a selection regarding cookies (i.e., by continuing to use the Site without making a selection via the cookie banner for a certain period of time, or by closing the banner without selecting a cookie preference, if applicable), no non-essential cookies will be placed. Consequently, no cookies requiring your prior consent will be enabled. Please note that this decision may limit your use of certain features of the Site. You can change your preferences at any time via the “Cookie settings” link available here.

 

If you have any questions about the use of cookies, you can send an email to the following address: rgpd@factorygroupe.fr.
