Privacy Policy

The main goal of the current privacy politics is to inform its clientele about our practices relating to confidentiality. Our primary purpose when it comes to confidentiality is to be completely transparent about how we use the data of our customers and how this data is protected as well as collected.

BONBONS NOIX ET CIE is taking the cautionary measures to ensure the integrity and security of the information obtained by surfers via the website. Moreover, these same cautionary measures secure against unauthorized access and use. For this purpose, BONBONS NOIX ET CIE periodically reviews its security measures.

DATA COLLECTED BY AUTOMATIC MEANS

Several technologies can be used on our website in order to improve the efficiency and the conviviality associated with marketing or statistical procedures. These technologies can include the collection and storage of data by our own team or by other parties operating in our name. In general, this data does not contain personal details on the user. These technologies also entail witnesses, Adobe Flash witnesses, web beacons (also named "pixel tags" and "clear GIFS"), linkage tracers or similar technologies and analytics software.

The data collected can notably include:

• the IP address of the website visitors;
• the date and time of the visit;
• the URL by which the visitor came on our website;
• the pages visited on our website;
• information on the browser used (the type and version of the browser, operating system, etc.).

We can also use the witnesses to identify the owner of the user account and to place items in the virtual shopping cart when purchasing. The witnesses that we generally use in these cases are "session cookies", which are automatically destroyed when the browser is closed. The users can, at all times, manage their navigation preferences directly from their web browser. By default, the browsers allow the usage of witnesses but this function can be deactivated. However, in this case, certain services run the risk of not being available. It is also possible to manually delete the witnesses through the web browser.

Web beacons, linkage tracers or similar technologies, and witnesses are mostly used for statistical analyses. These technologies can also be used to follow traffic patterns on the websites or to know if an email has been received and open as well as if a response has been sent back.

As for Web Analytics, it is a method used to collect and evaluate the behaviour of the visitors on the website or the mobile app. Web Analytics analyzes user traffic patterns to determine, for example, the frequency of the visits of certain parties on the website (or on the mobile app) or to know which information and what services appeal the most to our users. The Web Analytic tools used on our website and on our mobile app are provided by Google Analytics or other stakeholders.

This means that when the customers visits the website, a Google Analytics witness is placed on their computer or mobile device, except if the settings of their browser does not authorize these witnesses, as mention above. Furthermore, when the customers visit our website, the Web Analytic data previously described - including the "clickstream data", the data given by "web beacons and linkage tracers", as well as the information registered by the witnesses of Google Analytics - will be sent to Google Analytics in order to be analyzed for BONBONS NOIX ET CIE.

Google Analytics acts as an agent of BONBONS NOIX ET CIE, which means that BONBONS NOIX ET CIE only determines the purposes for which the data is used. Google Analytics cannot, as a third party, divulge this information (except if they are obliged by the law or by the decision of a jury). In terms of privacy, this means that BONBONS NOIX ET CIE is the "guarantor" and Google Analytics the "data processor".

If the customers do not wish that their consultation information be collected and evaluated by Google Analytics, the may oppose to it. The means that Google Analytics will make the information they have collected anonymous (but will continue to collect it) or will cease to collect the information concerning your visit, in function of the type of opposition that you have chosen. This opposition will oblige the customer to accept that a witness be placed on the customer’s computer by Google Analytics. The customer can express his opposition by clicking on the link intended for this sole objective in the section of Google Analytics that contains the confidentiality politics (https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout).

Geo-Tracking Services 

On our website, we provide geo-tracking services, notably by Google Maps.

If customers use these mobile apps, their apps could receive information of their location (similar to GPS signals sent by mobile devices) or other information that could be useful to evaluate their location. Customers may authorize the activation of the geo-tracking service and can, at all times, oppose to the app’s use of the geo-tracking service.

For further information on Google Maps and its privacy politics, please see: Google: http://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy/.

Retargeting Technologies 

Our website uses advertisement retargeting technologies on Internet. Therefore, our visitors, often already interested in our products, can view our advertisements on partner websites. We believe that the display of personalized advertisements, based on interests, is more fascinating than an advertisement without any links or connections to the customer.

We also collaborate with businesses that use monitoring technologies. These businesses provide advertisements in our name on Internet. It is possible that these businesses collect non-personally identifiable information during your visits on our website and from your interactions with all our communications, in particular from advertisement.

The advertisement retargeting technologies analyze the customers witnesses and display advertisements according to their behaviour on Internet. These technologies do not register any of their personally identifiable information.

Customers can deactivate Google’s use of cookies by accessing the Gestionnaire de préférences pour les annonces (Ads preferences manager). Customers can also deactivate the use of cookies by a third-party provider by accessing the page de désactivation de la Digital Advertising Alliance (Digital Advertising Alliances deactivation page) and the page de désactivation de DoubleClick (DoubleClick deactivation page) or the page de désactivation de Network Advertising Initiative (Network Advertising Initiative deactivation page).
