1. What are cookies and trackers?

1.1 Cookies

Technically, a cookie is a computer file that can contain any kind of information (random identifier, email address, session token, etc.). These files are generally small in size. They are stored and read by your browser or by an application that accesses the Internet (e.g. a mobile application on a smartphone) or by your terminal's operating system (Windows, MacOS, Android, iOS, Linux etc.). 

A cookie belongs to a given domain (e.g. zeendoc.com), has a name, content and expiration date. 

A cookie can only be read by a server in the domain to which it belongs. 

1.1.1. First-party and third-party cookies

A "first-party" cookie (or simply a "normal" or "standard" cookie) is initially uploaded by the website or server currently used by the Internet user. A "third-party" cookie is uploaded or read when the surfer browses a website or interacts with a server where that website or server has integrated technology from a different server (i.e. a "third-party") and that technology implements a tracker or cookie owned by a domain different from that to which the server on which the surfer is browsing belongs.

There is no fundamental difference between a standard cookie and a third-party cookie; it simply depends on the context that has been associated with the cookie. For example, a cookie set by Google while the user is browsing google.com is a standard cookie for Google. But if the user is browsing a non-Google site, and that site includes features provided by Google (advertising or analytics, for example), then there is a possibility that a Google cookie will be uploaded and/or read even if the user is browsing a non-Google site. In this context, Google cookies are considered third-party cookies. Such a third-party cookie may well contain an identifier that enables Google to recognize the surfer, particularly if the surfer has a Google account and has logged in to it from his or her browser. Google is then able to associate various data with the identifier contained in the third-party cookie, including data concerning the user's browsing history on all sites that use the same tracking technology.

1.2 Tracers

A tracker is any technology that makes it possible to identify the same user at different times. If a cookie contains a unique identifier (which may be random) and this cookie is read at several different times, the server reading the cookie will know that it is the same identifier and, therefore, the same browser or terminal. The server that holds this cookie can then record the fact that a given page has been browsed from a browser that has previously browsed another site and another page. The browser is thus identifiable, and the server that reads the cookie can associate it with a browsing history, which is recorded in a database and then analyzed.

Other tracking technologies also exist, such as tracking pixels or browser fingerprints.

Tracking technologies are generally based on the assumption that a browser is associated with an individual. Thus, by tracking the use of a browser, it becomes possible to determine an individual's browsing history, to create standard profiles and to determine an individual's likely centers of interest, in particular in order to offer him or her content that interests him or her more than others, or to recognize him or her in the context of a "cash-back" program, so as to associate rebates or refunds to this user when he or she places an order on partner sites of the cash-back program.

2. Why do we use cookies and trackers?

Zeendoc operates several websites for professionals. By browsing one of these sites, you will be considered a professional and you agree that the provisions specific to consumers do not apply.

We have implemented cookies and tracers for the purposes of navigation on our website, optimization, audience measurement, increasing our productivity, prospecting for potential new customers, our communication tools with you and personalization to your preferences of services and offers that we or our partners propose. 

We use cookies to provide you with an optimal user experience tailored to your personal preferences. For example, by setting up cookies and tracers, we can avoid you having to re-enter the same information each time you visit one of our websites. We also use cookies to optimize the performance of our websites, mobile sites and mobile applications. In particular, they can make your browsing experience more user-friendly and help us to satisfy your requests more quickly.

The data processed as a result of the use of cookies and tracers is used by us, our partners and third parties in accordance with their purposes.

2.1 What types of cookies and tracers are used on our websites?

2.1.1. Necessary cookies and tracers

These cookies and tracers are necessary for the proper functioning of our websites, for example by keeping track of your connection to your account or by enabling us to retain the browsing context when you change pages, if you leave our website temporarily or to enable you to communicate with us. Necessary cookies are essential for using our sites. Deactivating these cookies may prevent you from using certain site functions or displaying certain pages. Cookies for audience and traffic analysis ("analytics" cookies) are also considered necessary in order to satisfy our legitimate interests of optimizing our processes, increasing our productivity and acquiring new customers for our products and services.

Necessary cookies and tracers do not require the user's consent.

2.1.2. Functional and preference cookies and tracers

Functional cookies and tracers are useful for optimizing the navigation and ergonomics of our web sites, for example by retaining certain preferences (such as language or currency preferences) as defined by you during a previous visit to our sites, or to enable our pages to be displayed more quickly.

They may also be used to manage access to reserved and personal areas of our sites or services, such as your personal account, for example, by memorizing your identifiers.

2.1.3. Cookie and statistical, analysis and audience measurement tracers

Zeendoc participe et est conforme à l'ensemble des Spécifications et Politiques du Transparency & Consent Framework de l'IAB Europe. Elle utilise la Consent Management Platform n°92.

Statistics, analysis and audience measurement cookies and trackers enable us to better understand how our websites are used, which pages are viewed most frequently, how visitors find us, etc. These cookies and tracers are essential for us to be able to provide websites that are always better adapted to the expectations of our customers and visitors, particularly with regard to the ergonomics of our sites.

The data collected through the use of Google Analytics cookies and trackers is transmitted to and stored by Google Inc. Transfers of personal data carried out in the context of the use of Google's solutions are governed by a Data Protection Agreement (DPA) which includes the European Commission's standard contractual clauses, in order to govern any data transfers to the USA and to ensure that all the necessary guarantees are provided to ensure that these transfers are carried out in compliance with the principles and terms of the regulations concerning the protection of European residents' data. The Google Analytics service enables us to count visitors to our sites and applications and to determine how these sites and applications are used. The cookies and tracers implemented as part of the "Google Analytics" solution are deposited and/or read on the user's terminal as soon as the user accesses a website using the "Google Analytics" service. The data generated or processed by the "Google Analytics" service concerns: your use of our sites and applications and your IP address in order to determine your connection region. This data is immediately anonymized after localization and is not communicated to us. You can find out more about the Google Analytics service on the following page http://www.google.com/analytics/learn/privacy.html

The use of this type of cookies and tracers is generally subject to the user's consent. The expression of this consent or refusal is collected at the time of the user's first visit to one of our sites and can then be modified as mentioned in section 4.1.1 below.

2.1.4. Marketing cookies and tracers for targeting purposes

Cookies and tracers used for targeting purposes are essentially used to identify recurrent connections from the same browser, on our sites and on other web sites, so as to be able to build up a browsing history and deduce the user's probable centers of interest, as well as other data, including, potentially, identifiers or contact details enabling the user to be contacted, in particular his/her e-mail address. 

This makes it possible to offer content and advertising tailored to users' interests on websites visited using the same trackers. 

Note that deactivating cookies and targeting tracers does not necessarily deactivate ads: when you deactivate one or more tracers in this category, you may continue to see ads, but these will no longer be tailored to your browsing habits, but will be "generic" ads, i.e. the same as when you use a new computer or a newly installed browser, with a newly created user account that is not linked to anything known to the companies implementing these tracers.

The use of this type of cookies and tracers is subject to the user's consent. The expression of this consent or refusal is collected at the first visit of an Internet user to one of our sites, and can then be modified as mentioned in section 4.1.1 below.

2.1.5. Cookies and tracers for sharing on social networks

These cookies and tracers may be deposited on your terminal by social networks. They are intended for sharing the content of our websites on social networks. This may be the case when we add a "Like" or "Share" button, which will enable these actions to be reported on the social network to which they are linked. These cookies and tracers are beyond our control, as is the data processed by these social networks. For more information on these cookies and trackers, we invite you to consult the privacy policies specific to each of these social networking sites.

3. How long are cookies and traces stored?

Necessary cookies may last until you delete them, although most are deleted when you leave the session. All cookies and tracers, whether deposited directly by our sites or indirectly via our sites, have a validity period which is mentioned in the list of cookies and tracers below.

4.1.2. Do Not Track

Some browsers include a feature that allows you to indicate that you do not want to be tracked. This choice is passed on to sites, which can take it into account and adapt their behavior accordingly.

Find out more about this feature here: https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Do_Not_Track

Currently, there is no legal requirement or consensus for websites to recognize and respect the Do Not Track option. Few sites therefore respect this feature, including ours.
