Yes
SOCIAL MEDIA COOKIES (Facebook, Twitter, YouTube)

In these cases, the social network is likely to identify the user through this link, even if the user did not use this link when he/she viewed Gameloft's Sites.

SERVER LOGS

When a user loads a page on a website, the user is making a request to that website's server. This server will log the type of request that was made and will store information such as the IP address (which will allow the website owners to infer location), the date and time the browser loaded the page, what page was loaded, and what site or page the browser was on before it came to that page (referrer).
Server logs form the basis for web analytics and can only be seen by the owners of the website.

Yes
WEB BEACONS

These are small objects embedded into a webpage and are not visible. They are also known as "tags", "tracking bugs", "pixel trackers" or "pixel GIFs".

A simple version of this is a tiny clear image that is the size of a pixel. When a webpage with this image loads, it will make a call to a server for the image. This "server call" allows companies to know that someone has loaded the page. Web beacons are useful for advertisers displaying their ads on someone else's website or services that don't have server log access. Often, advertisers will embed web beacons in their advertisements to get an idea of how often an advertisement appears.

Yes

How long are they stored?

The cookies are not stored for longer than 13 months.

Advertising cookies from advertising partners

Advertising cookies are placed by third-party companies (such as, in particular, advertisers, advertising agencies, communication consulting agencies, audience measurement companies, targeted advertising providers, etc.) in the advertising space on our Site, the use of which contributes to the financing of the content and services that we make available to you free of charge.

These cookies make it possible, first of all, to count the total number of ads displayed in our advertising spaces, to identify these ads, their respective number of displays, the number of users who clicked on each ad and, where applicable, the subsequent actions taken by these users on the pages to which these ads lead, in order to calculate the amounts owed to the actors in the advertising distribution chain (communication agency, advertising network, site/distribution medium) and to establish statistics.

These advertising cookies also make it possible to adapt the advertising content in our advertising spaces that is displayed on your device, based on the navigation performed by your device on our Site, or even, if applicable, based on the location data transmitted by your device (behavioral advertising). This way, you can view the advertisement that we think is best suited to the anonymous profile of how you use your device. These cookies can also limit the number of times you see the same ad on the same medium.

We do not have subsequent control over the cookies deposited by third-party companies that act independently. These cookies are subject to the privacy policies of these third parties. However, if you wish to reject all or part of the cookies, we invite you to follow the tips below.

Social network cookies (Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, etc.) generated by “share” buttons

We may include computer applications from third parties on our Site. These allow you to share content from our Site with third parties. This is the case, for example, for the "Share" and "Like" buttons, which come from social networks such as Facebook, Twitter, or Pinterest.

The social network providing a “share” button is likely to identify you through this function, even if you did not use this button during your consultation. Indeed, this type of button may allow the relevant social network to track your browsing on our Site, simply because your social network account was activated on your device (open session) during your visit.

We have no control over the process used by social networks to collect information about your browsing on our Site and associated with the personal information they hold. We invite you to consult the privacy policies of these social networks to learn about the purposes for which they use the browsing information (including advertising) they may collect through these application buttons and how to disable tracking by them.
