7. Cookie policy
Browsing the www.tarbes-tourisme.fr website may cause cookies to be installed on the user’s computer. A cookie is a text file placed temporarily in the memory of your PC (session cookie) or stored permanently on your hard disk (stored or “persistent” cookie) by a web page server. Cookies cannot run programs or introduce viruses to your computer. They are uniquely assigned to you and can only be read by a web server in the domain that sent them to you.
One of the main purposes of cookies is to save you time. They tell the web server that you have returned to a specific page. When you return to the site, cookies retrieve information you previously provided so that you can easily use the features you customized. For example, if you personalize web pages or sign up for services, a cookie helps to automatically recall your personal information (such as user name, password, and preferences).
We mainly use session cookies, which expire after a few days of inactivity or when you close your browser. The use of cookies allows us to further personalise the navigation of our site.
We also use stored (or “persistent”) cookies primarily to prevent redisplaying pages you have already visited, and to personalise your online experience and save you time.
You can accept or decline cookies at any time. Most browsers accept them automatically, but you can usually change your settings to decline them if you prefer. You can also set your browser to notify you each time a cookie is presented, so that you can accept or decline it on a case-by-case basis. Please note, however, that if you choose to reject them, this may sometimes affect your web browsing.
Under no circumstances is a correlation made between these cookies and any personal information we may hold.
The use of tracers is governed by article 32 II of law n° 78-17 of 6 January 1978, transposing article 5.3 of directive 2002/58/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 12 July 2002 amended by directive 2009/136/EC.
