Cookies are text strings that a website visited by the user sends to his terminal (computer, mobile device such as smartphone or tablet) where they are stored before being re-transmitted to that site on a subsequent visit to the site.

These cookies are used exclusively for the production of aggregate statistics.

Analytical cookies. They allow you to recognize and count the number of visitors and to see how they move around the Site during its use. This helps to improve the functioning of the Site, for example, by making sure that users find what they are looking for easily.
