When you connect to one of the websites (those mentioned in the introduction) belonging to TECHNIMA GROUP for the first time a warning is displayed at the bottom of your screen indicating that information relating to your browsing is susceptible to be recorded in files known as “cookies”.

1. General information on the cookies present on the TECHNIMA GROUP website

TECHNIMA GROUP, as the publisher of this website, may send a cookie to your device (computer, table, mobile, etc) that will then be stored on its hard disk in order to ensure that you enjoy a fluid and optimal browsing experience on our website.

None of this information will be communicated to any third party other than when TECHNIMA GROUP has obtained your prior authorisation for such disclosure, or if it is so required by law, on instruction from a court or any other administrative or judicial authority itself duly authorised to be so informed.

To provide you with further details concerning the information identified by the cookies, please consult the table below that lists the different cookies susceptible to be used on GROUPE TECHNIMA websites, giving their name and function together with the length of time for which they will be retained.
