In this regard, we are required to provide you with certain information regarding cookies. The present Cookie Policy informs you about what cookies are, the types of cookies that are installed on your computer or other device when you visit our site, and the purposes for which cookies are used.
Weinmann Technologies SAS mainly uses cookies to improve your browsing experience on www.weinmann.fr. All data that Weinmann Technologies SAS obtains from its cookies is anonymous and is only used to understand the customer experience on the Website, in order to improve the services and navigation of our Website.
Weinmann Technologies SAS is entitled to update this cookie policy by placing a new version on the Website. In this context, it is particularly advisable to regularly consult the Website and the relevant page on which the cookie policy is published, in order to be sure to be aware of any change. As soon as a new cookie policy comes into force, your authorisation regarding the use of cookies will be requested again.
It is important to note that in the footer section, you will find a Cookie Preference link allowing you to accept or refuse cookies.

1 - What are cookies?

A cookie is simply a small text file containing data that is stored when you browse a website. It is designed to help websites remember your preferences (for example, a click on a particular page or link, logins to your profile, your visits to pages on a site). When the user browses the same website in the future, the data stored in the cookie may be collected by the website to inform the website of the user’s previous activity.
Cookies have been designed as a reliable mechanism for websites to remember the state of the website or the activity that the user has performed in the past. They help us to optimise your visit to the website, to remember the technical choices that were made and to show more relevant offers and services. If you wish to consult or use the Website, Weinmann Technologies SAS advises you to activate cookies. However, if you prefer not to, you are always free not to activate them.
Cookies may include: clicking on certain buttons, logging in or a record of pages that have been visited by the user, even months or years ago. Although cookies cannot contain viruses and cannot install malware on the guest computer, targeting or tracking cookies and especially third-party tracking cookies are often used as a way to gather long-term data of an individuals’ browser history. There are different types of cookies and without them, the Website would not be able to function properly and fully.

2 - The website www.weinmann.fr uses various different types of cookies
  1. “Strictly necessary cookies” are essential cookies that allow you to browse the Website and use its features, such as accessing secure pages. Without them, service registration and login are not possible. These cookies do not collect any information about you that could be used for marketing purposes or to remember the websites you have visited.
  2. “Performance cookies” collect information about how you use our Website and measure the audience of its users. In particular, they allow us to identify the pages you visit most often and the error messages that appear. They do not collect information that allows you to be identified. All information is anonymous. They are only used to improve the functioning of the Website and serve to provide a better user experience. Weinmann Technologies SAS uses Google Analytics, a popular web analysis service offered by Google Inc. This service uses cookies integrated into our Website to help us analyse how the Website is used, the number of visitors, the duration of a visit, the number of pages visited that a user consults on average. Cookies show things that are essential to the evolution of the performance of Weinmann Technologies SAS.
  3. “Functionality cookies” remember choices you make (such as your user name, your language or the region you are in) and provide personalised services. These cookies improve the functionality of the Website by remembering your preferences. They can remember changes you have made to text size, fonts or other parts of web pages that can be customised. They can also provide services you have asked for, such as watching a video or writing a comment on the dedicated area. The collected information can be anonymised. It cannot be traced back to other websites you visit.
  4. “Targeting cookies” display advertisements or messages that may be of interest to you. These cookies will outlive user sessions. Where the maximum age of a persistent cookie has been set to 1 year, during that year the initial value stored in that cookie will be sent back to the server each time the user visits the server. The purpose is to store essential information, such as how the user initially arrived at our Website. For this reason, they are also known as “tracking cookies”. For example, once you have selected your preferred language, our Website will record your preference in a persistent cookie and store it on your browser. When you subsequently visit our Website again, it will use that persistent cookie to ensure that content is provided in the desired language. Sometimes targeting cookies are linked to other websites, such as Facebook.
  5. “Third-party cookies” are cookies that are placed on our Website by someone else. In order to support its communications, Weinmann Technologies SAS has anchored its content in social media channels such as YouTube, Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn, among others, and Weinmann Technologies SAS also makes use of social media sharing options. The channels that Weinmann Technologies SAS uses may contain cookies from these websites and Weinmann Technologies SAS does not control these cookies. You should consult the relevant website of these third parties for more information about these cookies. Weinmann Technologies SAS only authorises third-party cookies that have been approved by the brand.

Within these five categories of cookies, we distinguish between temporary cookies (“session” cookies) and durable cookies (“persistent” cookies).

  • “Session” cookies link your actions only for the duration of the current session. This “session” begins when you open the website and ends when you close it. Then the cookie is permanently deleted.
