2.4. Use of cookies
We use cookies to facilitate navigation on our site. You have the option of configuring your browser to block cookies. However, this may deprive you of certain features offered on our site.
If you use a computer in a public place or share a computer with other users, be sure to erase the traces of your browsing, by deleting the history, before ending each session.
2.5. Use of Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics, a web audience analysis tool.
Using cookies, Google Analytics collects information about your browsing on our site, which is stored on servers, in particular in the United States. Google may disclose this information to third parties where required to do so by law or where such third parties process the data on Google's behalf.
The information collected by this tool includes, for example, the pages you visit, the date, time, duration and frequency of your visits, and the links you click on. Information on the operating system of your computer, the language used, the name of your Internet access provider and your geographical location (region) are also part of the information collected. Your IP address is also collected, but it is anonymized to ensure the confidentiality of information about you. Anonymizing the IP address prevents the identification of a user from it.
Google only uses the information collected to produce statistics and reports on navigation on our site, which allows us to improve our services.
If you wish, you can prevent Google from recording information about your browsing by installing the Google Analytics opt-out add-on on your computer.
