Notice on use of cookies

www.franklin-paris.com and http://secure.franklin-paris.com (together the “Website”) use cookies to distinguish you from other users of our Website. This helps us analyze which pages are being used and improve our Website. We only use this information for the purpose of statistical analysis to provide you with a better Website.

What is a cookie?

Unless you have adjusted your browser setting so that it will refuse cookies, our system will issue cookies as soon as you visit our Website.

Key Concepts

First and third-party cookies: whether a cookie is “first” or “third” party refers to the domain placing the cookie. First-party cookies are those set by a website that is being visited by the user at the time.
Third-party cookies are cookies that are set by a domain other than that of the website being visited by the user. If a user visits a website and another entity sets a cookie through that website, this would be a third-party cookie.
Persistent cookies: these cookies remain on a user’s device after the end of a browser session for the period of time specified in each cookie. They are activated each time that the user visits the website that created that particular cookie.
Session cookies: these cookies allow website operators to link the actions of a user during a browser session. A browser session starts when a user opens the browser window and finishes when they close the browser window. Session cookies are created temporarily. Once you close the browser, all session cookies are deleted.
