Cookie Management Policy

This policy describes how ODF OPEN-DATA FINANCE SAS (hereinafter ODF) uses cookies and other trackers on the opendatafinance.com website and on the platform available at app.opendatafinance.com. For each category of tracker it states the purpose, the issuer, the retention period and the legal basis for placing it. It supplements ODF's legal notice and privacy policy.

What is a cookie?

A cookie is a small text file placed and stored by your browser when you visit a website or application. It is used in particular to recognise your device, remember your preferences, secure your session or measure audience. The term cookie is used here in a broad sense and also covers similar technologies such as pixels, web beacons, local storage (local and session storage) and session identifiers.

Some trackers are strictly necessary for the operation of the service and do not require your consent. Others, in particular audience-measurement and marketing trackers, are placed only after your prior, express and informed consent has been obtained, in accordance with Article 82 of the French Data Protection Act and CNIL guidelines.

Categories of cookies used

Trackers are classified into three categories according to their purpose and legal regime: strictly necessary cookies (exempt from consent), audience-measurement cookies (subject to consent) and marketing and customer-relationship-management cookies (subject to consent). The tables below set out, for each tracker, its name, purpose, issuer and maximum retention period.

1. Strictly necessary cookies (exempt from consent)

These trackers are essential to provide the service expressly requested by the user: authentication, session security, storage of display preferences or recording your cookie choices. In accordance with CNIL guidelines, they are exempt from consent and cannot be disabled from the website; they may nevertheless be deleted through your browser settings, at the risk of impairing the operation of the service.

2. Audience-measurement cookies (subject to consent)

These trackers allow us to measure website traffic, understand navigation paths and improve our content. They are placed only after your consent has been obtained and may be withdrawn at any time. In the absence of consent, no audience-measurement cookie is placed and the Google Analytics script is not loaded.

3. Marketing and customer-relationship-management cookies (subject to consent)

These trackers, issued by our customer-relationship-management tool HubSpot, are used to identify visitors, measure the effectiveness of our communications aimed at professionals and personalise our commercial exchanges. They are placed only after your consent has been obtained and the HubSpot script is loaded only once that consent has been given.

Managing your consent

On your first visit, a banner lets you accept all trackers, reject them all or customise your choices by category. Refusing is as easy as accepting. You can change your preferences at any time by clicking the button below, which reopens the consent management panel.

Manage my preferences

Withdrawing your consent does not affect the lawfulness of consent-based processing carried out before that withdrawal. Disabling a tracker that has already been loaded takes full effect on the next page load; audience-measurement collection is also stopped immediately.

Deleting cookies from your browser

Independently of the banner, you can at any time configure your browser to accept, refuse or delete cookies. The procedure varies depending on the browser:

• Google Chrome: Settings, then Privacy and security, then Cookies and other site data.
• Mozilla Firefox: Settings, then Privacy and Security, then Cookies and Site Data.
• Apple Safari: Settings, then Privacy, then Manage Website Data.
• Microsoft Edge: Settings, then Cookies and site permissions, then Manage and delete cookies.

Blocking all cookies, including strictly necessary cookies, may prevent the website and platform from working properly, in particular authentication and the storage of your preferences.

Validity period of consent

Your cookie choice is kept for a period of six months. At the end of this period your consent is requested again on your next visit, in accordance with CNIL guidelines.

Data collected by audience-measurement cookies is retained for a period not exceeding twenty-five months, and tracker lifetimes are limited to thirteen months in accordance with the applicable guidelines.
