  • Analysis and performance cookie: this cookie allows us to carry out various procedures: number of visitors, pages visited,
  • Advertising or targeting cookie: this cookie records data that allows us to control advertising content in relation to this or that internet user.

From a technical point of view, there is a wide variety of cookies. http cookies, flash cookies, fingerprinting, invisible pixels and web bugs, but this is not an exhaustive list.
