Cookies : Why and How ?

At The Global Lifestyle, we want to offer you a smooth browsing experience tailored to your needs. Transparency is at the heart of our priorities and is the key to building a relationship of trust.

 

When you visit our website, files called ‘cookies' may collect and store information about your browsing activity. We therefore want to explain what cookies are and how our company, Fausto Scomm, uses them to improve your experience on our platform and how you, as a user, can maintain control over your data.

 

The Global Lifestyle takes care of your privacy.

 

What exactly are cookies ?

 

They are small text files stored on your device, whether it's a smartphone, tablet, or computer, when you visit a website or use an application. Unique codes are contained in these files, allowing the website to identify your browser and, for example, measure the platform's audience, remember your language preferences, or offer you tailored content.

There are, in particular, three types of cookies :

  • functional cookies : essential for the website to function ;
  • analytical cookies : these improve the browsing experience and help us understand how the site is used ;
  • session cookies : these disappear when you close your browser.

 

What are cookies used for ?

 

At The Global Lifestyle, cookies are used to guarantee you a personalized and optimal browsing experience. Our objectives are simple :

  • to guarantee the security and technical performance of the site ;
  • to offer you a customized experience, notably by remembering your preferences (login, language, etc.) ;
  • to measure and analyze the site's audience in order to improve its content ;
  • to optimize and personalize communication, with targeted advertising (only with your consent). 

Please note : your user experience is optimized by enabling cookies. By choosing to block them, some features or sections of the site may become less efficient or inaccessible.

 

What types of cookies are used ?

 

  • Essential Cookies

These cookies are strictly necessary for the site to function ; they act as its engine. Without these essential cookies, browsing is not possible. They generally respond to your direct actions: logging in, setting your privacy preferences, and filling out forms.

- Example: PHPSESSID - These are cookies essential for technical operation and are deleted when you close your browser.

These cookies allow us, among other things, to remember your preferences on each visit (language, region, favorite topics), store your consent, detect abusive usage, and manage access to paid content.

  • Functionality Cookies

These cookies enhance your browsing experience by remembering your choices and preferences and, potentially, by integrating third-party services. They therefore offer you personalized features and save you from having to readjust your preferences each time you visit the platform.

  • Audience Measurement Cookies

These tools are very useful: they help us better understand how the site is used by our users and improve its performance by collecting browsing data and transforming it into a series of anonymous statistics: reading time, most viewed pages, technical errors. This allows us to make the necessary adjustments so that The Global Lifestyle can perfectly meet your expectations.

- Examples (Google Analytics): _ga (visitor ID, retention period - 2 years), _gid (session ID - typical duration 24 hours), _gat (request regulation, typical duration 1 minute).

  • Marketing (Tracking) Cookies

These cookies, which may be placed by The Global Lifestyle's advertising partners, are used to create a profile of your interests, allowing us to show you relevant ads on other websites. They do not store data that would allow you to be directly identified by name, but they are capable of recognizing your browser or device.

- Examples: content sharing or social networking services (such as AddThis), advertising networks such as Google AdSense or DoubleClick.

  • First-party and third-party cookies

First-party cookies are placed directly by our company, Fausto SCS. Third-party cookies, on the other hand, are placed and managed by our carefully selected trusted partners (audience measurement tools or advertising networks).

 

Cookie retention period

 

The storage period depends on the type of cookie used. Generally, there are two categories based on their retention period :

  • Temporary cookies (or session cookies) : these are deleted as soon as you close your browser or application ;
  • Permanent cookies (or Persistent cookies) : these remain on your device even after you close your browser or application. These cookies allow us to easily recognize you on your next visit to our site. They remain on your device for a predefined period, or until you delete them through your browser, mobile device, or application settings.

 

How to Manage Cookie Use
