Cookies Policy

Introduction

This policy describes how www.larchedesvins.fr uses cookies and equivalent technologies. Our website does not use any analytics, advertising cookies, or third-party tracking for profiling.

What is a cookie?

A cookie is a small file placed on your device when you visit a website. It is typically used to remember your preferences, maintain a session, and ensure the proper functioning of certain services.

Which cookies do we use?

1. Strictly necessary (functional) cookies

These cookies are essential for the site to work (server session, language preference, contact-form image captcha validation, etc.). Under French CNIL doctrine, they do not require prior consent.

• PHPSESSID — server technical session, expires when you close your browser.
• cookieSeen (browser local storage) — remembers that the information banner has been shown.

2. Third-party cookies loaded occasionally

Some features rely on external services that may set their own cookies. We keep these calls to a minimum:

• Google Maps embed — only on the /nous-contacter page and loaded in lazy mode: no request is made to Google until the map becomes visible on screen. Once visible, Google may set its cookies (NID, IDE, 1P_JAR). See Google's cookies policy.
• Newsletter signup form (Mailchimp) — no cookie is set until you submit the form. Upon submission, Mailchimp may set its own cookies to process your signup. See Mailchimp / Intuit privacy policy.

What our website does NOT use

• No analytics tools (no Google Analytics, no Matomo, no Hotjar).
• No advertising cookies or ad servers.
• No tracking pixels (no Facebook Pixel, no LinkedIn Insight Tag).
• No tracking social-media embeds — the links to our Instagram, Facebook and Twitter accounts only load when you actually click on them.

How to control cookies

You can configure your browser at any time to block or delete cookies. Most browsers allow you to accept or refuse cookies, and to be alerted before a cookie is set. See your browser's help section for the exact procedure.

Your rights

Under the GDPR and the French "Informatique et Libertés" law, you have the right to access, rectify, erase, restrict, and object to the processing of your personal data. To exercise these rights, contact us at contact@larchedesvins.fr.

Changes to this policy

This policy may be updated at any time to reflect technical, legal, or service changes. The last-updated date appears at the top of this page.
