Cookie usage

2.1. Nature, Purpose, and Legal Basis of Tracking Technologies

This section exhaustively outlines the use made by the Leesee digital ecosystem of cookies, Web beacons, tracking pixels, mobile equipment identifiers, and other local storage technologies (Local Storage, Session Storage). In accordance with the directives stemming from the Act respecting the protection of personal information in the private sector (C.Q.L.R., c. P-39.1) as substantially amended by Law 25, as well as in harmony with the guiding principles of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) applicable by extraterritorial effect where relevant, the collection of telemetry by these means is subject to strict principles of transparency, specific purpose, and free, specific, informed, and unambiguous consent.

2.2. Typology and Functional Categorization of Trackers Used

To ensure adequate and legally compliant granularity in the management of your digital preferences, the trackers deployed on our infrastructure are segmented according to the following ontology:

• Strictly Necessary Functional Cookies (Consent Exemption): These software components are intrinsically and technically indispensable for the basic operation of the platform, the persistence of a secure authenticated session, server load balancing, and the maintenance of security integrity against distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks or cross-site request forgeries (CSRF). Under prevailing legal doctrine, these cookies do not require prior consent, as disabling them would irreparably compromise the delivery of the service expressly requested by the user.
• Functionality, Contextualization, and Preference Cookies: These elements allow the application to retain the user's explicit choices in memory (e.g., retaining search filters for Leesee Tools, interface language selection) to prevent frictional redundancy during subsequent sessions.
• Audience Measurement, Performance, and Behavioral Analytics Cookies: Deployed strictly upon obtaining explicit opt-in consent, these analytical tools aggregate pseudonymized behavioral data to quantify navigation flows, map interactions with our payment modules, and identify ergonomic bottlenecks within the application.

2.3. Mechanisms for Control, Limitation, and Revocation of Consent

In strict alignment with the Privacy by Design and Privacy by Default principles instituted by Law 25, no non-essential cookie is instantiated on your terminal prior to the positive manifestation of your agreement via our Consent Management Platform (CMP). The user retains the inalienable and perpetual prerogative to modify, limit, or revoke this consent at any time through their profile's privacy settings, or indirectly via the security configurations of their operating system or Web browser.
