How are you tracked on the web? What is a cookie and what is its function?

When you visit a website, tracks of your internet browsing are saved on your computer, in internet network equipment (access providers) and on servers.

Your browser keeps a copy of the pages you have recently visited ("the cache", a clever way to optimize loading times and unblock the network). It also keeps a history of the addresses you entered through the address bar.

Cookies are also part of the tracks that remain of your browsing. A cookie is a text file placed on your hard drive by the domain you are visiting. It can contain several data such as the name of the server which deposited it, an identifier in the form of a unique number, an expiration date, etc. A server accesses it to read and record this information.

Cookies play several roles. They facilitate your browsing, store your preferences, make the interaction between you and the website faster and easier. Without cookies, you will be a newcomer every time you open a page on the website. For example, if you enter your "login" data on one page and go to another page, the site will not recognize you and will not be able to consider you registered.

Cookies can also allow websites to target Internet users through their advertising or marketing campaigns based, for example, on their place of residence or their shopping or browsing habits on the Internet. Some cookies are linked to the website you are visiting, others depend on external websites that manage content on the page you are visiting (third-party site cookies). For example, a website can use the services of a statistics company which will use its own cookies to be able to count visitors.

In addition, if you choose to manage your browser so as not to accept any cookies, certain features of the website may no longer be available and this may make your visit to our pages less pleasant.

If you do not want to receive cookies, you can set your browser to alert you when it receives cookies or to refuse them outright. However, if you set it up so that it automatically rejects cookies, you will no longer be able to use certain functions of ARTE DISTRIBUTION site.

You can also decide to delete cookies already stored on your computer.

This action will result in the display of the cookie consent management platform the next time you visit our website.
