Information concerning the User's use of the Website may result in the installation of cookies designed to better adapt the Website's functionalities to the User's needs and improve the browsing of the Website. The User may refuse to allow these cookies to be installed on their computer by choosing the appropriate option on their browser.

11. Cookies

While the User browses the Website, cookies are installed on the User's computer, mobile or tablet. The Website has been designed to be particularly responsive to the needs and expectations of Users. For this and other reasons, PREMIERE VISION uses cookies to identify Users, allow them to access their account and manage their shopping basket, for example.

PREMIERE VISION installs cookies on the Users' terminals for the purposes of Website browsing, and the optimisation and personalisation of PREMIERE VISION services on the Website.

Third-party companies (e.g. those involved in marketing statistics) install cookies in order to identify the interests of Users through the products searched for or bought on the Website, and personalise promotional offers that are targeted at Users on the Website or elsewhere. Cookies may be installed during the browsing of the Website or when the User clicks on an advertisement on the Website. Third-party cookies are installed by those companies acting on their own account; PREMIERE VISION has no control over such cookies.

The Website uses different types of cookies which have different purposes. The Website contains:

- Cookies strictly necessary for the use of the Website by Users. They allow the use of the main functionalities of the Website (e.g. use of the purchase basket or account access). Without these cookies, the Users would not be able to use the Website properly. These cookies are installed by PREMIERE VISION and only relate to the operation of the Website.

- Analytical cookies that provide information on the use and performance of the Website thereby helping in the improvement of the Website's operation (e.g. webpages browsed most often, searches made using the Website's search engine, etc.). These cookies are mainly installed by Google.

- Operational cookies that allow PREMIERE VISION to personalise the Website's experience for Users (e.g. remember items in the basket before continuing with the purchase). These cookies are installed by PREMIERE VISION.

- Advertising cookies used to display advertisements or provide information adapted to the User's interests on the Website or elsewhere during the User's browsing of the Internet. They are mainly used to limit the number of times Users should see an advertisement and help in calculating the effectiveness of advertisement campaigns. The rejection of these advertising cookies does not affect the use of the Website. However, their rejection will not stop the display of advertisements on the Website or the Internet in general. The effect of their rejection will only be that the advertisements displayed will not centre on the User's interests or preferences. These cookies are mainly third-party cookies. These cookies are principally from advertisement companies. We cannot provide an exhaustive list of them.

- Social network plug-ins and cookies are present on the Website. Social network cookies are used to allow Users to share webpages and content through third-party social networks. They also enable targeted advertisements on social networks. The Website also uses social network plug-ins or buttons. Social network plug-ins facilitate, in particular, the sharing of webpages and content from the PREMIERE VISION Website on various social platforms. They can allow the User to 'like' information from the Website and share it with social network friends. For this purpose, the plug-ins use cookies that determine whether the User is a user also of those platforms and whether the User is connected to the social network during the browsing of the Website. These cookies also enable targeted advertising on the platforms. For more information on the use of personal data in relation to social networks, the User should read the privacy policies of the relevant social networks.

- Cookies and device identification for transaction security purposes.

- PREMIERE VISION hereby informs the User that it may use behavioural retargeting functionalities (advertisement displays during browsing outside our Website, or email contact, following the browsing of our Website). These functionalities are possible through the use of cookies and are offered by partners. They present the User with advertisements that are better adapted to the User's needs and connected to the User's recent behaviour on the Website. The User can, at any time, cease such retargeting by rejecting advertising cookies on your browser or by managing preferences in relation to advertisements proposed by partners or using the unsubscribe link in emails.

The User is informed that, at the time an order is placed, PREMIERE VISION or the service providers acting on its behalf may install cookies or collect data relating to the User's terminal, including information (technical features) necessary for the recognition of the device (computer, tablet, mobile phone) in order to facilitate the identification of the User's equipment as part of security procedures for monetary transactions (prevention of fraud). Cookies and device fingerprints are used for this purpose. A banner on the Website, upon entering, will appear informing Users of the collection of information about their terminal in order to identify it. By proceeding to make purchases on the Website without altering the collection of device identification data, the User agrees to such collection and the creation of the identification.

At any time, the User may choose to disable these cookies. The User's browser can also be configured to notify the User that cookies will be installed and request whether the User agrees to such installation. The User may accept or reject cookies on a case-by-case basis or automatically reject all cookies. PREMIERE VISION reminds the User that such configuration could change the conditions for accessing services that require cookies. If the User's browser is set up to reject all cookies, the User may be unable to make purchases or take advantage of the essential functions of the Website, such as storing items in the basket or receiving personalised recommendations. PREMIERE VISION invites Users to configure their browser while taking into account the purpose of the cookies as described above. Configuration of each browser is different.

Definition: 'Personal Data Legislation' refers to all laws, especially Law No. 78-17 of 6 January 1978 on information technology, files and freedoms, as well as the rules, regulations, decrees, ministerial orders and other applicable legal obligations on the protection and processing of personal data, which includes, where appropriate, Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data, and repealing Directive 95/46/EC (General Data Protection Regulation - GDPR) that entered into force on 25 May 2018.

In accordance with the Personal Data Legislation, PREMIERE VISION collects only data that is strictly necessary for the purposes of the data processing carried out.

The purposes of the processing of the data collected through the Website are stated in the data collection form shown on the Website.

PREMIERE VISION requires personal data provided by the Client when making a purchase in order to process and fulfil orders, mainly for managing Client registration at trade shows organised by PREMIERE VISION. This personal data is also used by PREMIERE VISION for promotional purposes to send newsletters or promotional emails.

The recipients of personal data are the relevant departments of PREMIERE VISION and data processors whereby they ensure the proper processing of the order made by the User. The User hereby expressly accepts such parties as recipients of personal data.

The User is hereby informed that, where the User's badge is scanned by an exhibitor at a Trade Show, the User's personal data will be transmitted to that exhibitor.

In accordance with the Personal Data Legislation, PREMIERE VISION will store personal data only for the time necessary to carry out the operations for which it has been collected. As a result, the User's personal data will be stored during the contractual relations between the Parties, plus another 3 years for the purposes of marketing similar products or services or where the relevant person expressly consents to such storage. Data relating to marketing leads is stored for 3 years from the last contact between the Parties.

PREMIERE VISION shall ensure the security of the personal data by establishing enhanced data protection through the use of physical and logical security means.

In accordance with the Personal Data Legislation, every User has a right to access, rectify and delete data concerning them. Users also have the right to data portability, and the right to establish general and particular instructions on how their rights should be exercised after death.

The User is specifically informed of their right to object for any legitimate reasons and a right to object to their data being used for marketing purposes.

The User may exercise any of the above-mentioned rights by sending an email, with their full name and the email address or postal address at which they should receive a response, to the following address: personaldata@premierevision.com

If the personal data is not deleted or if the data controller does not respond to the request for the deletion of data within one month from the date of the request, the person concerned may refer the matter to the French Data Protection Agency (CNIL). The agency will issue a decision on this matter within three weeks of receipt of the complaint.

17. Amicable resolution

The Parties jointly agree that this clause will not impede the use of any emergency proceedings by application for summary judgement or by motion.

18. Jurisdiction

Should the amicable resolution of the dispute fail, the Parties expressly agree that the Commercial Court of Lyon will have competence to hear the dispute, regardless of the existence of multiple defendants or the introduction of third parties. Such competence also extends to emergency proceedings and injunctions via motions or applications for a summary judgement, and for any claim based on the provisions of Article L.442-6 of the Commercial Code.

19. Applicable law – Contractual language

These Terms and Conditions of Website Use are governed by French law, regardless of the User's nationality.
