WHAT ARE COOKIES?
This type of cookie allows the correct functioning of the Site and a better experience for the user (e.g. memorisation of the language chosen, of the user’s username and password, and of the products in the shopping cart). Technical cookies are of two categories: persistent (once you close your browser they are not destroyed but remain until a preset expiration date) and session (they are destroyed every time you close your browser). These cookies will then always be used and sent unless the user changes the settings in their browser (thus affecting the display of pages on the site).
2. Analytical cookies
These cookies are used, for example, by Google Analytics to carry out statistical analyses on how users navigate the site through their computers or mobile applications, on the number of pages visited or the number of clicks made on a page while a site is being visited. The Site processes the results of these analyses anonymously and exclusively for statistical purposes.
This type of cookie integrates features developed by third parties within the pages of the Site, such as icons and preferences expressed in social networks, to share the site’s content or for use of third-party software services.
4. Profiling cookies
These cookies are necessary to create user profiles in order to send advertising messages in keeping with the preferences expressed by users on the pages of the Site.

For all other types of cookies, Users may give their consent/refusal:
