AR360 Cookie Policy
This policy explains how AR360, operated by InnovE-Tech Solutions in Quebec, uses cookies and similar technologies to enhance your browsing experience. We respect your privacy and are committed to being transparent about the use of these tools.
What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small text file deposited by your web browser on your device when you visit a website. This file contains simple information that helps identify your session or preferences, such as language or consent status. There are two main types: session cookies, which automatically disappear when you close your browser, and persistent cookies, which remain stored for a defined period. Additionally, there are so-called “first-party” cookies, placed directly by the website you’re visiting, versus “third-party” cookies, placed by other integrated services (such as Google Analytics or affiliate networks).
Why do we use cookies?
We use cookies for several specific and limited reasons. First, to measure audience anonymously, allowing us to evaluate site usage and improve content. Second, to remember your preferences, including site language or your cookie consent choices. Finally, we use affiliate cookies to track conversions related to our product recommendations, without ever collecting personally identifiable information. These data are used exclusively for operational and statistical purposes.
Categories of cookies used
- Essential cookies: always enabled, they are indispensable for proper site operation. Without them, certain features would not be accessible.
- Audience measurement cookies: anonymized, they help us understand how users interact with our content. Their activation depends on your consent.
- Third-party affiliate cookies: placed when clicking on links to partner products. They allow us to receive commissions from resulting sales.
- No intrusive advertising cookies are used on AR360.
Indicative list of third-party cookies
- Google Analytics: anonymous audience measurement — typical lifespan: 14 months
- Cloudflare: security and performance — typical lifespan: duration of session
- Affiliate networks (Amazon, others): conversion tracking — duration varies by partner
How to manage or refuse cookies?
Upon your first visit to AR360, a consent banner appears allowing you to accept or refuse non-essential cookies. You can modify this choice at any time by clicking the “Cookie Preferences” link located at the bottom of each page. You also have the option to disable cookies directly through your browser settings (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge). Each browser provides a specific menu for managing cookies. Refusing certain cookies does not affect the editorial functionality of the site, but it prevents us from obtaining aggregate data useful for improving user experience.
Retention period
The retention periods for cookies vary depending on their type. Essential cookies are generally valid for the duration of the session, while those used for audience measurement may be retained for up to 13 months maximum. Affiliate cookies follow rules imposed by partner platforms, potentially lasting several months.
Updates to this policy
AR360 reserves the right to modify this policy based on legal or technical changes. Any updates will be clearly indicated at the top of this page, accompanied by the last modification date. We encourage you to regularly consult this section to stay informed.
