1. What is a cookie?

A cookie is a small text file stored on your device when you visit a website.

Cookies allow the site to function properly, remember certain preferences, or, when you have consented, measure the traffic and usage of the site.

This site is hosted and operates using services provided by Odoo. When the cookie bar is activated, Odoo allows distinguishing between cookies necessary for the operation of the site and optional cookies requiring the visitor's consent.

2. Cookies used on the site

The cookies used on the AREL-Rôles site can be grouped into the following categories.

Essential cookies — Session and security

These cookies are necessary for the technical operation of the site.

They can particularly allow:

  • to maintain a browsing session;

  • to ensure the security of the site;

  • to enable the functioning of certain features;

  • to correctly transmit information between different pages.

Refusing these cookies may prevent certain essential functions of the site from working properly.

Odoo identifies session_id as an essential session and security cookie.

Essential cookies — Preferences

These cookies allow the site to remember certain visitor preferences, such as language or certain operational settings.

Odoo identifies frontend_lang as a preference cookie used by default in its website environment.

Optional cookies — Interaction history

These cookies can be used to understand interactions with the site, the pages viewed, or the source of a visit from a particular campaign.

Odoo specifically mentions, depending on the services activated:

  • im_livechat_previous_operator

  • utm_campaign

  • utm_source

  • utm_medium

These cookies are not necessary for the general functioning of the site.

Analytical cookies

When traffic analysis tools are activated on the site, cookies may be used to understand how visitors use the different pages.

Odoo specifically mentions the following Google Analytics cookies:

  • _ga

  • _gat

  • _gid

  • _gac_*

These cookies are optional and should only be activated after obtaining consent when required.

3. Managing your consent

When a cookie bar is activated on the site, it allows the visitor to decide whether to accept optional cookies or to keep only the cookies necessary for the functioning of the site.

Essential cookies do not require prior consent when they are strictly necessary for the functioning of the site.

Odoo also indicates that its cookie bar by default blocks certain third-party tracking services, including Google services, social networks, and certain video platforms, until optional cookies are accepted.

4. Modifying your preferences

You can modify your cookie preferences using the tools provided by the site's cookie bar.

You can also delete cookies already stored from your browser settings.

The procedure depends on the browser used.

5. Third-party service cookies

Some features integrated into the site may rely on external services.

When these services use their own cookies or similar technologies, they may process certain information in accordance with their own privacy policies.

The third-party services actually used on the AREL-Rôles site will be indicated in this policy when necessary.

6. Retention period

The retention period varies depending on the cookie in question.

Session cookies are generally deleted at the end of the browsing session, while some persistent cookies may be retained for a specified period.

The definitive list of cookies used on the site must specify, for each of them, their name, category, purpose, and retention period. Odoo recommends checking these durations directly in the browser's development tools.

7. Update of the policy

This policy may be modified when the site's features, the services used, or the applicable regulations change.

The date of the last update is indicated at the top of this page.
