ARABIAN OUD COOKIES NOTICE
WHAT IS A “COOKIE”?
A “cookie” is a generic term referring to a text file saved in a dedicated storage area of a device (e.g.: Computer, tablet, smartphone, etc.) belonging to a media user (internet, applications, etc.) when viewing online content or advertising. This cookie file enables its issuer to identify the device on which it has been stored, and thus to track the user of the medium’s activity, and to remember information such as the user’s preferences or the information previously entered by the user in forms on the medium, during the cookie’s period of validity or storage. Some cookies are essential for the use of the medium, while others serve to optimize and personalize displayed content, and others display advertisements.
Cookies do not identify a user directly, but identify a browser or a device. Information relating to content viewed on a medium is directly linked to an ID code contained in the cookie. When a user browses a medium, that ID code is associated with pages viewed, and more generally with the user’s journey through the medium and interactions (e.g. number of clicks): This makes it possible to track a single user’s browsing journey on the medium.
Cookies allow browsing data to be associated with the user’s profile, regardless of the terminal used, thanks to cookie exchange technologies implemented by the partners who produce these cookies – usually communication agencies or digital advertising service providers – such that a user’s journey can be tracked regardless of the medium or device used.
