What is a “cookie”?

A “cookie” is a sequence of information, usually small in size and identified by a name, that may be transmitted to your browser by a website to which you connect. Your web browser will keep it for a certain period and send it back to the web server each time you reconnect. Cookies have multiple uses: they can be used to memorize your customer identifier with a merchant site, the current contents of your shopping cart, an identifier allowing your navigation to be tracked for statistical or advertising purposes, etc.

Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies are necessary for the operations specific to the services and products provided on the Site. They are used to provide the basic features of the Site, such as remembering the information entered into a form. If you prevent the installation of these cookies, you will no longer be able to use these features, and the Site may not operate efficiently.

i. About Internet Tags

Enix may occasionally use Internet tags (also known as action tags, single-pixel GIFs, clear GIFs, invisible GIFs, and 1-by-1 GIFs) and deploy them through a web analytics partner who may be located (and therefore store the corresponding information, including the User’s IP address) in a foreign country.

These tags are placed both in online advertisements allowing internet users to access the Site, and on its various pages.

This technology allows Enix to evaluate visitors’ responses to the Site and the effectiveness of its actions (for example, the number of times a page is opened and the information consulted), as well as the User’s use of the Site.

The external provider may potentially collect information about visitors to the Site and other websites through these tags, compile reports on Site activity for Enix, and provide other services relating to the use of the Site and the Internet.
