WHAT IS A COOKIE?

Cookies are small files placed on your browser or device by a web site or application you visit. Pixels (also called clear GIFs, web beacons or pixel tags) are small blocks of code on a web site or application. These allow the web site to place and read cookies and send information to Sophie Helene or my partners.

Local storage is a standard technology that allows a website or application to store and unpack data on a computer, mobile phone or other device. Examples are local storage, HTML5 caching or device storage.

 

A distinction is made between session cookies, which are deleted again as soon as you close your browser (see section "Functional cookies") and permanent cookies, which are stored beyond the individual session (see section "Statistics and measurements").
