COOKIE POLICY

Cookies are small files or storage devices that may be downloaded to the User’s browser or device when visiting a website.

They allow certain information relating to browsing to be stored or retrieved, such as preferences, technical identifiers, session information or data about interaction with the website.

In addition to cookies, the website may use similar technologies such as pixels, tags or other identifiers that can perform equivalent functions. For the purposes of this Policy, we use the general term “cookies” to refer to these technologies as well where applicable.

Some cookies are necessary for certain website functions to operate correctly, while others are used for purposes such as analytics, measurement or advertising and may require the User’s prior consent.

Cookies and similar technologies may be used on this website for different purposes:

• To enable the technical operation of the store, including functions required for browsing, security, sessions, the shopping cart, checkout and other essential features.
  
• To remember certain User preferences, where applicable, such as settings relating to browsing or the website experience.
  
• To analyse website use and performance, in order to understand in aggregate how Users interact with pages and to improve operation and content.
  
• To measure the effectiveness of commercial and advertising activities, where the User has provided the necessary consent.
  
• To provide certain functions supplied by external services integrated into the store.
  

Cookies that are strictly necessary to provide a service requested by the User may be used without consent where permitted by law.

Cookies used for analytics, advertising or tracking purposes that require consent will only be used after the User has given that consent through the cookie settings system.

Depending on their purpose, this website may use the following categories of cookies and similar technologies:

1. Necessary or technical cookies

These are required to enable the basic and secure operation of the website and online store. They may be used, among other purposes, to maintain the session, manage the shopping cart, complete checkout, apply security measures or remember certain actions necessary to provide a service requested by the User.

These cookies may be used without consent where they meet the requirements established by applicable law.

2. Preference or functional cookies

These allow certain choices made by the User to be remembered in order to facilitate or adapt the operation of the website.

Where these cookies are limited to remembering a setting expressly requested by the User, such as a language, currency or another preference necessary to provide the requested service, they may be considered technical cookies and may not require consent.

If they are used for additional purposes that require consent, they will only be activated after the User has authorised them.

3. Analytics or measurement cookies

These provide information about use of the website, such as interaction with pages and functions, in order to measure performance, detect possible issues and improve content and operation.

Where the use of these cookies requires consent under applicable law, they will not be activated until the User has provided it.

4. Advertising or marketing cookies

These may be used to measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns, understand certain interactions with advertisements and, where applicable, display or measure advertising according to the User’s activity.

These cookies and technologies will only be used where the necessary lawful basis exists and, where applicable, after obtaining the User’s consent.

The specific availability of each category will depend on the services and technologies active on the website at any given time. The User can consult and manage available categories through the cookie settings panel.

Depending on the entity managing the cookies, they may be:

First-party cookies: cookies managed from the domain or services used directly to provide the website’s functions.

Third-party cookies: cookies managed by external providers whose services or technologies are integrated into the website. These third parties may process information obtained through their technologies in accordance with their own terms and privacy policies, as applicable.

CLASSIFICATION BY DURATION

Depending on how long they remain active, cookies may be:

Session cookies: designed to collect and store information while the User browses the website and, as a general rule, cease to be active when the browsing session ends.

Persistent cookies: remain stored on the device for a period determined by the party responsible for the cookie or until deleted by the User, as applicable.

The specific duration of each cookie may vary according to its purpose and the provider that manages it. Where this information is available, it can be consulted in the cookie settings panel or in the information provided by the relevant provider.

This website may use cookies, pixels and other technologies provided by third parties to deliver certain functions, analyse website use, manage payments, measure advertising campaign performance or display content and advertising, where applicable.

These services may include the ecommerce platform, analytics and measurement tools, advertising and marketing providers, payment platforms and other technology services integrated into the website.

Some of these providers may collect information directly from the User’s device or browser and process it in accordance with their own privacy and cookie policies.

Where these technologies are not strictly necessary and require consent, they will only be activated after the User has given consent through the cookie management system available on the website.

Depending on the provider and configuration used, information obtained through these services may include technical device and browser data, IP address, pages visited, interactions, browsing information or identifiers associated with cookies and similar technologies.

Bernard Rives will select and configure these services with the aim of ensuring that their use complies with applicable data protection and privacy legislation.

The User can consult additional information about providers, the cookies used, their purposes and duration in the cookie settings panel and, where applicable, in each provider’s privacy and cookie policies.

When the User first accesses the website, a cookie settings panel or notice is displayed from which the User can accept, reject or configure the use of cookies that require consent.

Cookies that are strictly necessary for the operation of the website may be used without consent where permitted by applicable law.

Analytics, advertising, marketing or other non-essential cookies that require consent will not be installed or activated until the User has taken an affirmative action to accept them, unless another legal basis permits their use.

Continuing to browse, scrolling through the page or taking no action will not be treated as consent to the use of cookies that require it.

The User can accept all cookies, reject them or configure preferences by category through the settings panel available on the website.

Consent may subsequently be withdrawn or changed using the cookie settings system available on the website. Withdrawal of consent will not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.

Where changes materially affect the use of cookies or the conditions under which consent is obtained, the information provided to the User will be updated and, where necessary, consent will be requested again.
