7. What types of cookies does LAO use? Cookies can be classified in different ways.
According to their shelf life
• “Session” cookie: this is a cookie that is deleted when the user closes the browser.
• “Persistent” cookie: this is a cookie that remains on the user’s computer/device for a predefined period after the browsing session has closed. LAO determines the duration of cookies based on what is proportionate to the purpose pursued and limits this duration to what is necessary in compliance with the maximum retention period provided for by the regulations. In this case, the lifespan of a cookie cannot exceed 13 months after its deposit.
According to their origins
• “First-party” cookies: these are placed directly by LAO or its service providers.
• “Third-party” cookies: these are placed by partners that LAO has authorized (for example, an advertising agency). When they use cookies, these third-party partners are responsible for the cookies they implement. We invite you to consult their cookie management policies. You can also use their own consent collection and management tools to configure your preferences.
According to the main purposes
Cookies can serve several purposes. The names of these purposes may vary from one party to another. They can be grouped into the categories defined below.
• Strictly necessary cookiesCookies that are strictly necessary for the provision of an online communication service by electronic means are essential for the proper functioning of the website. Disabling them causes significant difficulties in using the site, or even the impossibility of using the services it offers. Many purposes are covered by these cookies. For example, they allow the identification of terminals to route the communication, the numbering of data "packets" to route them in the desired order, the detection of transmission errors or data loss, the storage of the contents of a shopping cart for the duration of the session, the personalization of the user interface (language, presentation of a service) or even authentication to a service.
These cookies also allow LAO to retain the choice expressed by users regarding their preferences regarding the deposit and reading of cookies so as not to request them again for a defined period of time.
These cookies and trackers are implemented based on LAO's legitimate interest. Because they are strictly necessary for your browsing, your prior consent is not required.
These cookies are not managed by our consent management module.
Functional cookies are used to improve your browsing experience. They remember choices you make (such as your username or saving your last route options) and provide personalized services. These cookies mean you don't have to re-enter certain information every time you visit our website or app. They can remember changes you've made to text size, fonts, or other parts of web pages that can be customized.
Functional cookies will not be used to serve you advertisements on our site or on other websites.
You are free to accept or refuse them, but by blocking them, it is also possible that your previous service selections will not be remembered.
These cookies are implemented based on your prior consent.
• Statistical or audience measurement cookiesAudience measurement cookies are used to improve the performance of the LAO website. The data collected is used to provide anonymous statistical data on traffic (the number of visitors and pages visited, visit time, error messages, number of visits, their frequency of return, etc.).
Analytics cookies may be installed and managed by partners who pursue additional purposes. However, LAO may limit their use to the requested analytical statistics. You are free to accept or reject them, but by blocking them, LAO will have less information to improve the performance of its site. These cookies are implemented based on your prior consent or our legitimate interest when they meet the conditions for being exempt from consent.
• Cookies related to operations relating to targeted advertising
These are, for example, cookies that allow advertising agencies to offer advertisements tailored to your interests based on your browsing on LAO websites, or which limit their repetition.
LAO and third-party vendors, including Google, use first-party and third-party cookies together to gather information, optimize, and serve ads based on site visits. LAO and these vendors also use these two types of cookies to determine the relationship between site visits and ad impressions, other uses of advertising services, and interactions with these ad impressions and advertising services. Finally, LAO and these vendors use these two types of cookies to remember your interests and demographic data in order to provide you with targeted advertising.
These cookies are implemented based on your prior consent.
• Social media cookies generated by social media sharing buttons
LAO uses so-called social plugins (hereinafter: buttons) that link to social networks such as Facebook, Linkedin, Instagram, Pinterest, or YouTube. LAO provides features that allow you to share content across social networking sites. Social network cookies are managed by the publisher of the social networking site.
