1. What is a cookie?<\/strong><\/p>\n 1.1. The French National Commission for Information Technology and Freedoms (“CNIL”) describes the cookie as: “A small computer file, a plotter, deposited and read for instance when consulting a website, reading an email, installing or using software or a mobile application, regardless of the type of terminal used (computer, smartphone, e-reader, video game console connected to the Internet, etc.).” HTTP cookies; 1.3. The cookies are attributed in a unique manner and can be read only by a web server of the domain which transmitted them.<\/p>\n 2. What is the applicable law to the cookies?<\/strong><\/p>\n Octodoc relied on the latest CNIL publications which precisely describes the legal framework applicable to cookies.<\/p>\n Thus, the article 5 (3) of Directive 2002\/58 \/ EC amended in 2009 (or the \u201cePrivacy Directive\u201d) lays down the principle on the use of cookies and this principle has been transposed into French law by Article 82 of the French Data Protection Act. These provisions themselves refer to articles 4.11 and 7 of the General Data Protection Regulation (or “GDPR”). And the CNIL has:<\/p>\n adopted on September 17, 2020 some guidelines relating to the application of article 82 of the law of January 6, 1978 amended, for reading and writing operations in a user’s terminal (in particular to “cookies and other trackers” ) and repealing deliberation n \u00b0 2019-093 of July 4, 2019, 3. Cookies and consent, what does the law say?<\/strong><\/p>\n With regard to the applicable law to cookies, the CNIL distinguishes two types of cookies:<\/p>\n 3.1. Cookies exempted from User consent<\/p>\n According to the CNIL “These are cookies strictly necessary for the provision of an online communication service expressly requested by the user or the tracers which aim to allow or facilitate the transmission of communication by electronic means”. These cookies \u201cdo not require consent\u201d from Users are including:<\/p>\n cookies keeping the choice expressed by Users on the deposit of cookies; 3.2. Cookies requiring the collection of the User’s consent<\/p>\n According to the CNIL, this type of cookies \u201cmay for example be linked to the display of personalized or non-personalized advertising (when cookies are used to measure the audience of the advertising displayed in the latter case) or to sharing features on social networks \u201d. 4. Octodoc\u2019s cookies and third-party\u2019s cookies<\/strong><\/p>\n 4.1. Octodoc thus collects and uses cookies when Users browse on its site regardless of the device used (computer, smartphone, e-reader, video game console connected to the Internet, smart TV, etc.). Cookies may also be placed for specific reasons (e.g.: chat solution from a subcontractor of Octodoc on the Site).<\/p>\n 4.2. In addition to Octodoc, third parties may indeed place cookies on the Users’ terminal, for example the partners of Octodoc, advertising agencies and other data controllers.<\/p>\n 4.3.
