4. Integration of third-party services and content

On our website, we may make available third-party content such as YouTube videos, maps by Google Maps, RSS feeds or graphs. For online users to access these services and content, the third-party providers of these online services (the "third-party provider") must have their IP address. It follows that, unless these third-party providers know your IP address, they cannot send the content in question to your browser. Accordingly, the IP address must be provided for you to access the content. On our website, we endeavor to offer only content from third-party providers that collect your IP address for the sole purpose of publishing content. However, we have no means of preventing a third-party service provider from recording your IP address for statistical purposes, for example. Whenever we are aware of such practices, we strive to ensure that our website visitors are informed of the fact.

 

Google Analytics

This website uses Google Analytics, a website analysis service provided by Google Inc. 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, U.S.A. ("Google"). Google Analytics uses cookies, which are text files installed on your computer, to help analyze the way online visitors use the website. The data generated by the cookies concerning your use of the website is generally transmitted to and stored by Google on servers located in the United States. If you elected to make your IP address anonymous on this website, your IP address will still be transmitted by Google, but truncated in European Union Member States and in any other States that are signatories to the Agreement establishing the European Economic Area.

In exceptional circumstances only, your IP address will be transmitted in full to a Google server in the USA, then truncated there. Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, compile reports on website activity for its publisher and provide other services related to the website's activity and Internet usage. Google will not attempt to match your IP address transmitted for Google Analytics and any other data held by Google.

5. Cookies

Please be aware that, when you visit our website, cookies may be installed automatically on your browser.

Cookies are "information stored in the terminal equipment", and installed by a website on a user's device. Installing a "cookie" is akin to sticking a "label" on the online user's device.
If this label contains a unique identifier, the website can use this identifier to distinguish one online user from another, and so recognize the user on subsequent visits. It serves primarily as an identifier and cannot be run as code, nor carry a virus.

The purpose of cookies is to make your visit to our website smoother and more user-friendly.

This website uses the following cookies:

  • temporary session cookies, which are erased as soon as you leave your browser or the website;
  • permanent cookies, which remain on your device until they expire at the end of their lifetime or until you delete them with the help of your browser features.

The information collected by the cookies installed by the FGYO, the BIJ, the INSUP, the LOJIQ and the OFQJ listed below undergo processing designed to:

  • facilitate connections to our website. The sole purpose of this processing is to make browsing our web pages easier, and the personal data in the cookies is not transferred by the FGYO to third parties;
  • measure and analyze website audience and traffic, and your browsing on our website, mainly for the purposes of improving our services.

Any information collected by these cookies is kept only for the duration of use of the services offered by the AKI-App website and, in any event, for a period not exceeding 13 months.

Configuring cookies on different browsers:

If you would like to block cookies, your browser gives you the means to do so: you can decline to receive or save new cookies. However, if you configure your browser to automatically block cookies, you will no longer be able to use certain features of the AKI-App website.

While most browsers are configured by default to allow cookies to be installed, you can configure your web browser to enable or disable the installation and use of cookies, or you can choose which ones you want to allow, based on the cookie issuers. You can click on your browser's "Help" menu to find out how to adjust your cookie preferences.

You can also configure your browser to allow or disallow cookies, on a case by case basis, prior to their installation. You can also set your browser to regularly clear the cookies from your device. Don't forget to configure all of the browsers on your different devices (tablets, smartphones and computers).

Because each browser is configured differently, you will find below the main websites offering help with configuring your browser:

You can usually control which cookies, if any, are stored on your device. At any time and at no cost, you can enter, or change, your preferences through the choices available in your browser software.

 

6. Data security and e-mail communication

The FGYO, the BIJ, the INSUP, the LOJIQ and the OFQJ use all of the technical and organizational resources necessary to safeguard your data, in particular by preventing third-party access to your data.

We cannot, however, guarantee optimal security for your data when you communicate with us by e-mail. Accordingly, if you have confidential data to communicate to us, we recommend that you send it by mail.

The employees and service providers under contract to the FGYO, the BIJ, the INSUP, the LOJIQ and the OFQJ are bound by a duty of confidentiality and an obligation to comply with data privacy regulations.
