• The applicable recommendations and guidelines issued by the French Data Protection Authority, the CNIL

2.2 Principle of consent

Cookies and trackers that are not strictly necessary for the operation of the Website or for a service expressly requested by the user are not placed or accessed before the user has given consent.

Where required, consent is collected through the cookie banner displayed during the user’s first visit or when new purposes requiring consent are introduced.

Consent must be:

• Freely given: the user may refuse non-essential cookies without losing access to the Website’s essential services
• Specific: the user may make choices according to the categories or purposes presented
• Informed: the user receives clear information about the purposes of the cookies
• Unambiguous: consent results from a clear affirmative action
• Revocable: the user may withdraw or modify consent at any time

2.3 Cookies exempt from consent

Prior consent is not required for cookies whose sole purpose is to enable or facilitate electronic communication or which are strictly necessary to provide a service expressly requested by the user.

This may include cookies required to maintain the shopping cart, process an order, authenticate a user, secure the Website, remember cookie preferences or complete a payment.

“`

Article 3 – Cookies used on the Website

“`

3.1 Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies are essential to the operation of the Website. They enable navigation, shopping cart management, order processing, secure payment, account authentication and Website security.

These cookies do not require the user’s prior consent because they are necessary to provide the service requested by the user.

3.2 Audience measurement cookies

If an audience measurement service is activated, cookies may be used to understand how visitors use the Website and to improve its performance, navigation and content.

Depending on the service used and its technical configuration, these cookies may collect information such as:

• The number of visits and visitors
• The pages viewed
• The approximate duration of visits
• The type of device and browser used
• The general source of Website traffic
• Technical errors and Website performance

Audience measurement cookies requiring consent are not activated until the user has accepted the corresponding category.

The presence of this section does not mean that JALAERO necessarily uses an audience measurement service. The services actually active are shown in the Website’s cookie management tool where available.

3.3 Functional cookies

Functional cookies may improve the user experience by remembering certain choices, such as the selected language, display settings or other navigation preferences.

Where a functional cookie is not strictly necessary for a service requested by the user, it is activated only after the required consent has been obtained.

3.4 Payment and security cookies

Technical cookies or identifiers may be used by JALAERO, Monetico, the buyer’s bank or an authentication service to secure transactions, prevent fraud, maintain the payment session and enable payment authentication.

These cookies are necessary to perform and secure the payment requested by the user.

JALAERO does not use these cookies to access the buyer’s complete card number, card security code or full banking authentication credentials.

3.5 Advertising and social-media cookies

If advertising, remarketing, social-media or cross-site tracking services are added to jalaero.com, the corresponding cookies will be classified as non-essential and will not be activated before the user has given consent.

The presence of this section does not mean that JALAERO currently uses advertising or social-media tracking cookies.

“`

Article 4 – Third-party cookies

“`

4.1 Third-party services that may be used

JALAERO may use third-party services necessary for the operation, security, payment and technical maintenance of the Website.

Depending on the Website’s actual configuration, these services may include:

• Secure payment and banking authentication services
• Website hosting and technical infrastructure services
• Website security and fraud-prevention services
• Cookie consent and preference-management services
• Email delivery and transactional notification services
• Audience measurement services where enabled
• Technical services required for WordPress and WooCommerce

4.2 Audience measurement

If JALAERO activates an audience measurement service, the corresponding cookies and trackers will be managed according to their actual purpose and configuration.

Cookies requiring consent remain blocked until the user accepts the relevant category through the cookie management tool.

4.3 Secure payment through Monetico

Payments made through jalaero.com are processed by Monetico.

During payment, Monetico or the banking authentication services involved may use cookies or comparable technical identifiers to:

• Initiate and maintain the payment session
• Authenticate the transaction
• Prevent and detect fraud
• Communicate with the buyer’s bank
• Process the payment result
• Return the payment status to JALAERO

The user may be redirected to a secure page operated by Monetico or to an authentication interface operated by their bank.

4.4 Responsibility of third parties

Third-party providers may process data under their own legal obligations, technical requirements and privacy policies.

JALAERO does not directly control every cookie or technical identifier placed on an external payment, banking or authentication platform.

Users are therefore invited to consult the privacy and cookie information provided by the relevant third-party service when they access an external platform.

“`

Article 5 – Retention periods

“`

5.1 General principle

Cookies and similar trackers are retained only for a period proportionate to their purpose.

The exact duration varies according to the cookie’s function, technical configuration and the service concerned.

Cookies subject to consent must not have an excessive lifespan and must not be retained indefinitely.

5.2 Retention of cookie preferences

The user’s acceptance, refusal and preference choices are generally retained for a period of up to 6 months.

After this period, or when a material change affects the cookies or purposes used by the Website, the user may be asked to express their preferences again.

5.3 Cookies according to duration

• Session cookies: normally deleted when the browser is closed or when the session expires
• Persistent cookies: retained on the device until their expiry date or until they are manually deleted by the user
• WooCommerce session cookies: retained for the technical period required to maintain the shopping cart and checkout session
• Payment cookies: retained for the period required to initiate, secure and complete the transaction

5.4 Detailed cookie information

Where the Website’s cookie management tool provides a detailed inventory, that inventory specifies the current cookie names, providers, purposes and retention periods detected on jalaero.com.

The detailed inventory may change when the Website, its plugins, its payment system or its technical service providers are updated.

Article 6 – Managing your preferences

“`

6.1 Cookie banner

During the first visit to jalaero.com, the cookie banner allows the user to:

• Accept the proposed non-essential cookies
• Refuse non-essential cookies
• Customise choices according to the available cookie categories

Accepting and refusing non-essential cookies must be presented with a comparable level of accessibility and simplicity.

6.2 Changing your choices

The user may change or withdraw their cookie choices at any time through the cookie management link or module made available on the Website, generally in the footer or through the cookie banner.

Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before consent was withdrawn.

6.3 Browser settings

The user may also manage cookies through their browser settings.

Most browsers allow users to:

• View cookies stored on the device
• Delete previously stored cookies
• Block cookies from certain websites
• Block third-party cookies
• Block all cookies
• Receive a warning before a cookie is stored

6.4 Consequences of browser settings

Blocking certain cookies through the browser may prevent essential Website functions from operating correctly, including the shopping cart, secure payment links, customer account authentication and order validation.

Deleting cookies may also remove the user’s saved preferences and require them to make their choices again.

“`

Article 7 – Consequences of refusing cookies

“`

7.1 Strictly necessary cookies

Strictly necessary cookies cannot be disabled through the cookie banner because they are essential to the operation, security or requested functions of the Website.

If the user blocks these cookies directly through their browser, certain essential functions may no longer work correctly.

This may prevent the user from:

• Maintaining a shopping cart
• Opening or using a secure payment link
• Completing an order
• Remaining connected to a customer account
• Completing payment authentication
• Using certain protected forms or services

7.2 Audience measurement cookies

Refusing audience measurement cookies does not prevent access to the Website or the completion of an order.

It only limits JALAERO’s ability to measure Website traffic and improve its operation using audience statistics.

7.3 Functional cookies

Refusing optional functional cookies may result in a less personalised browsing experience.

Certain language, display or navigation preferences may not be remembered between visits.

7.4 Advertising cookies

If advertising cookies are used in the future, refusing them will not prevent access to the Website or the completion of an order.

The user may still see general advertising, but it will not be personalised using the refused cookies.

“`

Article 8 – Updates to this Policy

“`

This Cookie Policy may be amended to reflect changes to the law, regulatory guidance, Website functionality, WordPress or WooCommerce configuration, payment services or technical service providers.

If a material change introduces a new purpose requiring consent, JALAERO may ask users to express their cookie preferences again.

JALAERO may also inform users through a new cookie banner, notification or notice displayed on the Website.

The date of the latest update appears at the top of this document.
