1) About this policy
This Cookie Policy explains how Bravo Marketing SAS (“we”, “us”, “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies on www.frenchpropertyportal.com (“Site”). It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.
We operate under the EU GDPR and French law, under CNIL guidance. Except for cookies that are strictly necessary, we will only place cookies on your device with your consent.
2) What are cookies?
Cookies are small files placed on your device when you visit a website. They can be “session” (deleted when you close your browser) or “persistent” (kept until they expire or you delete them). Similar technologies include local storage, pixels and SDKs.
3) How we use cookies (categories)
We group cookies into four categories:
• Strictly necessary – required for the Site to function (e.g., load balancing, session, consent storage). These do not require consent.
• Preferences – remember choices (e.g., language).
• Analytics (non-essential) – measure audience and performance to improve the Site.
• Marketing (non-essential) – personalise content or measure campaigns; includes certain third-party cookies set by embedded services or payment flows.
You can accept/refuse/customise non-essential cookies via our banner and change your choices at any time (see §7).
