2. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small files or pieces of information that may be stored on a computer, mobile phone, tablet or other device when a user accesses a website.
Cookies allow websites to store and retrieve certain information concerning the user’s device, browser, preferences or interaction with the website.
Depending on their purpose, cookies may be used to provide essential website functionality, remember preferences, maintain technical settings, measure website usage, improve performance or enable services supplied by third parties.
For the purposes of this Cookie Policy, the term “cookies” also includes, where applicable, similar technologies such as local storage, pixels, tags, online identifiers, web beacons and other equivalent storage or access technologies.
3. Legal Framework and Transparency
The use of cookies and similar technologies on this website is subject to applicable legislation governing information society services and electronic communications and, where personal data is processed, applicable data protection legislation.
Cookies that are not strictly necessary must not be activated before users have received clear and sufficient information and have made a valid choice where consent is legally required.
Information about cookies is provided in two layers: firstly through the cookie banner or consent management interface and secondly through this detailed Cookie Policy.
4. Cookies According to Their Origin
First-party cookies
First-party cookies are sent to the user’s device from a domain, server or system managed directly by the Website Owner and used to provide the service requested by the user.
These may include, among others, technical cookies required for website operation or cookies used to store the user’s consent preferences.
Third-party cookies
Third-party cookies are sent from or managed by a domain, platform or service controlled by an entity other than the Website Owner.
Cookies may also be considered third-party cookies where information obtained through them is processed by another entity for its own purposes.
Where third-party cookies are used, the corresponding provider should be identified in the cookie inventory included in this policy.
5. Cookies According to Their Duration
Session cookies
Session cookies are temporary and are generally deleted when the user closes the browser or ends the browsing session.
Persistent cookies
Persistent cookies remain stored on the user’s device for a predefined period or until they are manually deleted.
The duration of each cookie depends on its purpose and configuration. The specific retention period of the cookies identified on this website is shown in the cookie inventory.
6. Cookies According to Their Purpose

7. Cookie Consent Management with Complianz
This website uses Complianz as its cookie consent management solution.
Complianz is used to display the cookie banner, store consent preferences, manage cookie categories and, where configured, prevent non-essential services from loading before the required consent has been obtained.
Cookies created by Complianz solely to store the user’s consent decisions are classified as first-party technical or necessary cookies. Their purpose is to manage consent rather than to carry out analytics, advertising or user profiling.

8. Current Cookie Inventory
The following inventory is generated by Complianz and is intended to reflect the cookies and services currently detected on this website.
For each active cookie or service, the inventory should provide information such as its name, provider, purpose, category and retention period.
Inventory maintenance: a new cookie scan should be carried out whenever analytics tools, tag managers, embedded videos, maps, anti-spam services, forms, social networks, advertising technologies, plugins or other third-party integrations are added, removed or modified.
9. Strictly Necessary Cookies and Consent Exemptions
Certain cookies may be used without consent where they are strictly necessary to transmit a communication or provide a service expressly requested by the user.
Depending on the website’s actual configuration, these may include technologies used exclusively for:
- Website security.
- Technical session management.
- Authentication.
- Consent management.
- Essential functionality expressly requested by the user.
This exemption does not extend to technologies that are also used for analytics, advertising, tracking, profiling or other non-essential purposes.
10. Third-Party Services and Embedded Content
Certain website functions may depend on services supplied by third parties, including embedded videos, maps, external forms, social media content, analytics platforms, security tools or other external resources.
Where loading an external service may store non-essential cookies or disclose information to another provider, that service must remain blocked until the relevant consent has been obtained where required.
Third-party providers and their associated cookies should be identified in the Complianz inventory included above.
Third-party providers may also apply their own privacy and cookie policies to processing performed under their responsibility.
11. Cookie Consent
When the user first visits the website, a cookie banner or consent management interface is displayed where required.
The user must be able to make an informed decision before optional cookies or technologies are activated.
The consent interface must allow users to:
- Accept optional cookies.
- Reject optional cookies.
- Configure preferences by category.
- Access this Cookie Policy before making a decision.
The options to accept and reject optional cookies should be presented with equivalent visibility and without making rejection unnecessarily more difficult.
Inactivity, simply continuing to browse, scrolling the page or closing the cookie banner without making a valid choice will not be treated as consent where express consent is required.
12. Prior Blocking of Non-Essential Technologies
Before a valid choice has been made, only strictly necessary technologies should be active.
Analytics, advertising, marketing and other non-essential technologies must remain blocked until the user authorises the corresponding category where consent is legally required.
Rejecting optional cookies should prevent the corresponding non-essential services from being activated.
13. Changing or Withdrawing Consent
Users may change or withdraw their cookie preferences at any time.
Withdrawal of consent must be as easy as granting consent and will not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before consent was withdrawn.
The following controls allow users to review and update their current cookie preferences:
14. Managing Cookies Through the Browser
In addition to the consent management controls available on the website, most browsers allow users to view, block or delete cookies stored on their device.
These controls are normally available in the privacy, security or advanced settings of the browser.
Blocking all cookies may prevent certain website features from working correctly.
15. International Data Transfers
Certain third-party providers may process information outside the European Economic Area.
Where the use of a cookie involves an international transfer of personal data, the transfer must rely on a valid mechanism recognised by applicable data protection legislation.
Such mechanisms may include an adequacy decision, appropriate safeguards, standard contractual clauses or another legally recognised mechanism.
Further information may be available in the relevant provider’s privacy documentation and in this website’s Privacy Policy.
16. Processing of Personal Data
Some cookies may involve the processing of information such as IP addresses, online identifiers, technical device information, pages visited, interactions or browsing behaviour.
Where this information identifies or can indirectly identify an individual, its processing is subject to applicable data protection legislation.
Further information about the data controller, processing purposes, legal bases, recipients, retention periods and data subject rights is available in the Privacy Policy.
17. Profiling and Automated Decision-Making
If analytics or marketing technologies are used to analyse browsing behaviour or create user profiles, those activities will be subject to the appropriate legal basis and to consent where required.
If cookies were ever used as part of automated decision-making producing legal effects or similarly significant effects on an individual, the additional information required by applicable legislation would be provided.
18. Retention of Consent Preferences
The choice made through the cookie banner may be stored for a reasonable period so that users are not required to make the same decision unnecessarily on every visit.
A new consent request may be displayed where significant changes are made to cookie purposes, providers, technologies or the website’s consent configuration.
19. Review and Technical Verification
The Website Owner will periodically verify that the technical behaviour of the website corresponds with the information contained in this Cookie Policy.
In particular, checks should confirm that:
- Only strictly necessary technologies are active before consent.
- Rejecting optional cookies prevents unauthorised categories from loading.
- Accepting a particular category activates only the services associated with that category.
- The cookie inventory corresponds with the technologies actually detected on the website.
- Cookies used exclusively by logged-in administrators are not incorrectly listed as visitor cookies.
- New plugins or third-party integrations are reviewed before or immediately after being made available to website visitors.
20. Updates to This Cookie Policy
This Cookie Policy may be amended where cookies, technologies, providers, plugins, integrations, legal requirements or regulatory criteria change.
Where a change materially affects the purposes for which consent was obtained or introduces new services requiring authorisation, users will be asked to make a new choice where necessary.
Users are advised to review this Cookie Policy periodically to remain informed about the technologies used by the website.
