Definition

A cookie is a small alphanumeric text file placed on your hard drive by the server of the site you are visiting or by a third-party server (advertising agency, web analytics service, etc.).

A cookie allows recognizing a visitor when they return to a website. However, technically, the cookie recognizes a machine rather than a user. A cookie can only be used by a server from the domain that placed it. Thanks to cookies, it is possible to access personalized pages automatically without logging in. Behavioral data is linked to the cookie number and stored on the servers that placed the cookies. A cookie can only enable personal identification if the user has already registered on the site (within the limits mentioned earlier).

Additionally, we may purchase advertising spaces directly or through our providers (communication agencies, advertising agencies, social networks) to promote our activities and offers on third-party sites, using advertising content (texts, graphics, animations, videos, etc.) displayed by these sites. Please note that only the issuer of a cookie can read or modify the information contained in it.

When you connect to our site, we may install various cookies on your terminal to recognize your terminal’s browser during the validity period of the concerned cookie.

These cookies allow us to establish statistics and volumes of traffic and use of the various elements composing our site (sections and content visited, paths), enabling us to improve the interest and ergonomics of our services.

Analytics cookies (Google Analytics)

We use software to analyze certain information about visitors, such as the traffic to the website www.focus-meeting.fr, browser usage, the number of new visitors, marketing activities, and orders placed.
