Advertising personalisation cookies
Subject to your consent, the purpose of these cookies is to improve the relevance of the advertisements displayed on our site and on third-party media.

This automated processing of data is therefore used to improve your browsing experience:
- by showing you relevant ads at the right time,
- by filtering out those that are unlikely to be of interest to you,
- or by limiting the number of times you are shown the same ad.

For example, this processing may lead us to show you an advertisement relating to a car segment that you are likely to prefer (an SUV rather than a city car, or vice versa).

The data processed in this way may come from different sources and may be cross-referenced: data from our customer files, navigation data, data from third parties, data on the use of your vehicle, etc. The use of such tools is defined in the Privacy Policy. The use of such tools is defined as profiling by the applicable regulations.
