Statistical monitoring data
We shall use the connection data for our consultation statistics (type of browser, number of visitors, topics visited, etc.) to optimise our site in terms topics and browsing, but this information shall not be given to third parties. Cookies on the site do not contain data making it possible to identify you personally, and they are designed to be used exclusively by the HASLER Group.

We shall make particular use of cookies technology.
• What is a "cookie"?
This is a classic mechanism used in Internet technology that the HASLER Group uses in a standard manner. Cookies are informative text files that your Internet browser places on your computer when you visit a website. The majority of browsers automatically accept cookies, but may be configured in such a way as not to accept them or to signal when a cookie is sent.
• How do I know if I receive a "cookie"? You have to activate "the cookie alert" in your browser options.
• Should I activate the alert? This is up to you. If you deactivate it, you will no longer receive alert messages.
• What are "cookies" used for generally speaking? "Cookies" have three functions:

The first is to "maintain the status of an application". This means that, each time you return to a site, you will return to the place where you left it the last time.

The second function is to track your route on the site. The "cookie" records your route on the site or the pages visited most frequently. This enables the site’s webmaster to optimise it according to visitors’ centres of interest. You may believe that knowledge about your route – the provider can draw up a profile of your particular habits – is an unnecessary intrusion into your private life. However, do not forget that no identifiable personal data is recorded in a cookie.

The third is the recognition of the personal data that you have already entered into the site, which make it possible to give you your bearings on the site and personalise the pages. This function is used on this site under the topics described in the question "What is the purpose of "cookies" in this site". This information is not recorded in the cookie and cannot be used by a third party.

• What is the purpose of "cookies" on this site?
On the site: once you have been identified, a cookie is used in such a way as to enable you to browse other topics on the site and return to a section without having to identify yourself again. Similarly, a cookie is used to be able to record the various actions that you may make on the site (use of your in box, participation in a game, etc.). Once again, this is not intended for the purpose of statistical monitoring or analysis of frequentation of the services that we offer.

• Should I delete "cookies"?
Once again, it is up to you to decide. If you believe that "cookies" are an intrusion into your private life, delete them. However, we do not recommend this. This would reduce the ease of access to useful, personalised information on subsequent visits.

• How do I delete cookies?
Go to your cookies folder, usually called "cookies" on your hard disk (c:\windows\cookies, for example), select them and delete them like any other file. The parameterisation of your browser software allows you to remain informed of the presence of the cookie and to refuse it by amending your browser. The procedure varies from one browser to the other, depending on its nature and version.
