General information about cookies

What are cookies? When you visit a website, your browser sends a request to the site, which responds, usually in the form of a file that is read by your browser. In this type of exchange, the website cannot distinguish one browser request from another.

If you want your browser to be recognized and individualized in order to continue receiving content transmitted according to your preferences, without having to submit them again for each page visited, the website must be able to identify your browser during each request.

So, when you visit most websites, the browser will, at the request of the site, create a small text file called a cookie and save it on your computer. The file contains information (usually a random number) that uniquely identifies your browser on your computer. This cookie will then send a signal the next time you visit the issuing site, so that your browser is recognized with the preferences previously defined.

Why are cookies used?

Classic use of cookies:

  • Identification of visitors who have logged in to a protected website. This allows them to visit multiple pages without having to provide a username and password for each page.
  • Recording the visitor's preferences according to the content and format they wish to receive, so as to avoid having to resubmit their preferences each time they visit the site.
  • Recording the pages the user visits. This creates data that can be used to make improvements to the site content and navigation.

How can we control them?

You can delete the cookies used by your browser at any time.

You can also program your browser not to store cookies from certain websites. By doing this, you will lose the functionality that cookies allow, with the settings defined. For more information about managing cookies: go to the website.
