Websites generally use cookies to obtain statistical information about their pages and analyze the behavior of their customers/users.
Cookies used for any of the following purposes are exempt from compliance with the obligations established in Article 22.2 of the LSSI:

The exempt cookies include those intended to:

- Media player session cookies.
- Load-balancing session cookies.
- User interface customization cookies (language, browser, etc.).

The specific uses we make of these technologies are described in the following sections.
