Refuse to accept cookies

If you prefer to refuse the use of cookies in general, but want to make an exception for some cookies, you can specifically configure the settings of your web browser.

This configuration depends on which web browser you are using (Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari, Chrome, etc.). Please refer to the "help" function of your web browser to learn more about this.

Do not track

The "do not track" feature allows you to take control of your data collected and used online. "Do not track" is a feature in a web browser that allows you to report to a website that you do not wish to be tracked for behaviour-driven advertising purposes, for example. This feature works by transmitting a Do Not Track HTTP banner every time your details are requested by a website.
