What is a cookie?

A cookie is a small text file stored on your device when you visit a website. It lets the website remember information from one page or visit to the next: that you are logged in, your preferences, or audience measurement.

Managing your choices

On your first visit, a banner lets you accept or refuse, in a single click, the cookies that are not essential to the website. Refusing does not prevent you from using Visorando.

You can change your mind at any time, as easily as you made your choice: click Manage my cookies, a link also available at the bottom of every page. Your choice is kept for 6 months on this device, after which you will be asked again.

If you are logged in, your latest choice is also recorded on your account, with its date, so that we can demonstrate it. It is not applied automatically to your other devices: the choice remains specific to each browser.

You can also set your browser to block or delete cookies. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may however prevent you from logging in to your account.
