If you are using a mobile device, you should consult the instruction manual for information on how to manage cookies. Almost all web browsers allow you to check which cookies are on your hard drive, block all cookies or receive a warning every time a cookie is installed. In some cases, however, failure to install a cookie may make it impossible to use some areas of the Website in question.

 

4. Social Plugin

The Site contains social network plug-ins (e.g., Facebook, Twitter, Google+, Pinterest, etc.). By accessing a page of the Site containing a similar plug-in, the internet browser connects directly to the social network servers and the plug-in is displayed on the screen thanks to the connection with the browser.

Even if the user is not registered with social networks, the sites with active social plug-ins can send data to the networks. Through an active plug-in, an encrypted cookie will be set each time the Site is accessed. 

Seeing as the user's browser, upon each connection with a network server, sends this cookie without a request, the network could create a profile that lists the websites the user has visited. In this case, it is possible to link the coding to a person, for example when the user connects to the social network.

If the user does not wish to associate a visit to the pages of the Site with his or her social account, he or she must log off in the manner set out by the main social networks to allow the user to disable social plug-ins.
