2. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that a server (the site's own or a third party's) downloads and stores on the user's device (computer, phone, or tablet) when visiting a webpage. They allow the site to remember information about the visit, such as language, access credentials, or preferences, and facilitate navigation and measurement of its use. Cookies can also be stored in the browser as local storage or other similar technologies, to which the same legal regime applies.
3. Types of cookies
According to their purpose, cookies can be classified as:
- Technical or necessary: essential for the basic functioning of the site and to allow members to access their private area and use contracted services. They do not require consent.
- Preferences or personalization: allow remembering options such as the selected language to display content in the language chosen by the user.
- Analytical or measurement: allow quantifying the number of visitors, the most visited sections, and preparing usage statistics to improve the site. If they are anonymized and not used for profiling, they only require information for the purposes of art. 22.2 LSSI.
- Advertising and behavioral: manage advertising and adapt ads according to the user's profile. They require informed and prior consent.
According to their ownership, they can be own (managed by the Club) or third-party (managed by external providers like Google or Microsoft). According to their duration, they can be session (erased when closing the browser) or persistent (remain for a certain time).
