This site uses different types of cookies.

 

Technical cookies

These cookies are intended to enable or facilitate electronic communication (detection of connection errors, identification of connection points, website security, etc.) or to provide online communication services which you might specifically request (screen display preferences, saving information entered in the forms, shopping cart (if applicable), access to your user account, chat or chatbot on our website, etc.).

 

These cookies are necessary for the proper functioning of our website.

Social cookies

Social cookies are used by us for advertising and analytics purposes, especially to show you our ads when you are connected to social networks (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn, Pinterest, TikTok), and to help us understand the user interactions and engagements with our ads on these social networks.

 

These cookies are also intended to make the website more user-friendly and interactive, by allowing you to interact with these social networks and by embedding contents from these social networks on our Site (such as YouTube videos).

 

These cookies can process data such as the number of contents shared through social networks, the fact that you have an account on a social network, the tracking of your browsing on websites or these social networks, etc. These features are based on third-party applications integrated into our website. The social network providing such an application button is likely to identify you through this button, even if you did not use this button when you visited our website.  This type of application button may allow the social network in question to track your browsing on our website, by the mere fact that your account on the social network in question was activated on your device (open session) at the same time that you were browsing our website.

 

We recommend that you consult the relevant privacy policies of these social networks to learn about the ways these social networks use the information they may collect, via these application buttons, or for advertising purposes.  These privacy policies must allow you to express your preferences on these social networks, in particular by setting up your user accounts for each of these networks.

Personalised advertising cookies

Subject to your consent, these cookies are intended to improve the relevance of advertisements on this website and on third-party media.  Whenever we send you promotional messages or display such messages, our objective is to send you the most relevant advertisements and offers possible, tailored to your needs or that are likely to actually interest you.

 

These cookies may process data relating to your personal preferences, your interests in our products and/or services and, your consumption habits.

 

This automated data processing therefore contributes to a better online experience:

•  By showing you relevant offers at the right time,

• Or even by limiting the number of times you are shown the same advertisement.

 

For example, these processing operations can lead us to push you information related to the car segment you are likely to favour (an SUV rather than a city car, or vice versa).

 

The data processed in this context may have been collected from different sources and may be interconnected: data from our customer files, navigation data, data from third parties, data on the use of your vehicle, etc. The use of such tools is defined as profiling by regulations.
