Personal data includes nominative data (such as your name, your first name, your email, your phone number etc.) and electronic identification data available on or from your terminal (computer, smartphone or tablet), such as “cookies” or “IP addresses”. We would like to point out that electronic identification data allows us to identify your connection terminal or the pages consulted on the site during your browsing and is generally insufficient on its own to identify you by name.
