These cookies allow the latter, during the period of validity of these cookies : to count the number of displays of advertising content disseminated via the advertising spaces present on the site, to identify the advertisements thus displayed, the number of users having clicked on each advertisement, allowing them to calculate the sums due as a result and to establish statistics; to recognize your terminal during its subsequent navigation on any other site or service on which these advertisers or these third parties also issue cookies and, if necessary, to adapt these third-party sites and services or the advertisements they disseminate, to the navigation of your terminal of which they may be aware.
> What is the point of having ads tailored to your browsing habits?
Our objective is to present the most relevant advertisements possible. To this end, cookie technology makes it possible to determine in real time which advertisement to display to a terminal, based on its recent navigation on one or more sites or applications. Your interest in the advertising content displayed on your terminal when you visit a site often determines the advertising resources of the site enabling it to operate its services, often provided to users free of charge. You may prefer to see advertisements that are relevant to your interests rather than advertisements that are of no interest to you. Similarly, advertisers who want to see their ads displayed are interested in displaying their offers to users who are likely to be most interested in them.
