3.9  Cookies

 

When using the Application, information relating to a Member’s navigation via his/her device (computer, tablet, smartphone, etc.) may be recorded in “cookies” (alphanumeric identifiers) installed on said device, subject to the choices expressed by the Member concerning said cookies (such choices may be modified at any time) and the parameters of the browser used.

The storage period of the Member’s browsing information provided by “cookies” in the App will not exceed one (1) year.

Without personally identifying the Member, cookies allow PCD to:

-          Memorize information relating to a form the Member completed in the Application (registration or access to his/her personal space) or relating to products, services or information the Member has chosen or viewed in the Application;

-          Allow the Member to access the application’s reserved and personal spaces, such as his/her personal space, using identifiers or previously communicated data;

-       Implement security measures, for example when the Member is asked to log in to a content or service again after a certain period of time.

The Members have several possibilities to manage cookies (any settings thus made by the Member may modify his/her Internet browsing and his/her conditions of access to certain services requiring the use of cookies):

-       The Member can configure his/her browser so that cookies are stored on his/her device or, conversely, they are rejected, either systematically or depending on their issuer. The Member can also configure his/her browser so he/she is regularly prompted to accept or refuse cookies before cookies are likely to be stored on his/her device;

 

-       If the Member accepts cookies in his/her browser, cookies embedded in the pages and content he/she has consulted may be stored temporarily in a dedicated space on his/her device. They may only be read by their issuer;

 

-       If, on the contrary, the Member refuses cookies on his/her device or if he/she deletes the cookies that have been saved there, he/she will not be able to benefit from a certain number of features which are nevertheless necessary to the navigation in certain areas of the Application. This will be the case if he/she attempts to access content or services that require the Member be logged in or when PCD or its technical service providers cannot recognize, for technical compatibility purposes, the type of browser used by the Member’s device, its language and display settings, or the country from which the device appears to be connected to the Internet. If this is the case, PCD declines any responsibility as to the consequences related to the degraded operation of the Application and/or their services resulting from the impossibility to save or consult the cookies required for their operation and that the Member may have refused or deleted.

The management of cookies and a Member’s choices is configured differently in each browser and is described in the help menu of the browser in question.
