Cookie policy

This policy explains how the www.afineo.com website uses cookies and other trackers.

1. What is a cookie?

A cookie is a small file saved or read on your device when you browse a website.

It can be used, among other things, to make the site work, to remember certain choices, to measure its audience or to display content from third-party services.

2. Strictly necessary cookies

The site uses cookies and technical mechanisms that are necessary for its operation, its security and for storing your privacy choices.

These cookies do not require your consent when they are strictly essential to the operation of the site or to the provision of a service you have requested.

They may be used in particular to:

  • ensure the security of the site;
  • allow forms to work;
  • maintain a technical session;
  • balance the computing load;
  • remember your cookie choices;
  • prevent fraudulent or automated use.

3. Google Analytics

Subject to your consent, the site uses Google Analytics in order to measure its audience and understand how visitors use its content.

Google Analytics can be used in particular to measure:

  • the number of visits;
  • the pages viewed;
  • the duration of visits;
  • traffic sources;
  • browsing paths;
  • interactions with certain content.

Google Analytics cookies and trackers must not be placed before you give your consent.

You can refuse their use without this preventing you from accessing the site.

4. YouTube videos

Some pages may contain videos hosted by YouTube, a service provided by Google.

When these videos are loaded, YouTube may receive certain technical information, in particular the visitor’s IP address, and may place or read cookies and other trackers.

YouTube videos and the associated services must only be loaded after your consent, where consent is required.

Refusing YouTube cookies may prevent the embedded video from being displayed directly. It remains possible, however, to offer a link allowing the video to be viewed directly on YouTube.

5. Managing your choices

On your first visit, a banner allows you to:

  • accept non-essential cookies;
  • refuse them;
  • customize your choices by purpose or by service.

The buttons for accepting and refusing cookies must be presented in an equally simple and accessible way.

Refusing non-essential cookies does not prevent access to the main features of the site.

You can change or withdraw your consent at any time using the cookie management function provided on the site.

6. Retention period for your choices and for trackers

Cookies and other trackers are kept for a limited period, proportionate to their purpose.

Your choice to accept or refuse cookies is also kept for a limited period, so that you are not asked again on every visit.

When that period expires, or if the services used change significantly, you may be asked for your choice again.

7. Browser settings

You can also configure your browser to block or delete certain cookies.

Disabling strictly necessary cookies may, however, affect the operation of certain parts of the site.
