Definition

Cookies are files stored on the hard drive of the user’s terminal. They perform a variety of functions: they store browsing preferences, collect statistical information, enable certain technical functions, etc.
Grand Décor uses cookies for the comfort of navigation and in particular to store information which will be reused during the next visit of a user.

Goals

The main purposes of the cookies installed on the Grand Décor website are :

  • Technical cookies: strictly necessary to provide an online communication service expressly requested by the user (session identifier, authentication).
  • Audience measurement cookies: used to produce statistics and analyses of the number of visitors to the site and its various areas.

Indeed, when a visitor visits the site, information relating to the connection and behavior of visitors for statistical purposes (number of visitors, pages visited) is collected. This information does not allow direct identification of visitors and the site editor makes no attempt to identify visitors. In particular, no cross-referencing or reconciliation is made between the personal data requested from the user in the forms and the information required for statistics.
Grand Décor uses the analytical tool provided by Google Inc, Google Analytics, which allows it to analyze the use of the site and more generally to compile reports and track activity on the pages of the site. The user is informed that the data generated by these cookies are therefore accessible to the company Google Inc. and are transferred to its servers in the United States. Google may also transfer this information to third parties where required to do so by law, or to its subcontractors and contractual partners. For more information on the use of this data by Google Inc., the user can consult the Privacy Policy and the conditions of use of the data collected by Google Analytics. The user can go to the page. http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout to prevent Google Analytics cookies from being installed on your terminal.

Management

At any time, the user has the option of permanently deactivating the above-mentioned cookies, or choosing to set his or her browser to inform him or her and to subject each cookie to his or her acceptance before it is deposited on the computer.
It is important for the user to know that the deactivation of cookies may prevent him/her from taking advantage of some of the services offered by the site and therefore affect the fluidity of his/her navigation, for which Grand Décor cannot be held responsible. Grand Décor therefore recommends filtering cookies according to their purpose, rather than deactivating them as a whole.
