Cookie charter

1. Purpose of this Charter

This Cookie Charter explains how Froid Marin uses cookies and similar technologies on froidmarin.com, as well as the choices available to you to manage them.

2. What is a cookie?

A cookie is a small text file stored on your device (computer, phone, tablet) when you visit a website. Cookies may, among other things, remember your preferences, keep you signed in, or measure site traffic.

3. Applicable legal framework

This Charter is intended to comply with applicable Canadian laws, including the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) and, for Québec, the Act respecting the protection of personal information in the private sector (Law 25).

4. Categories of cookies used

We mainly use the following categories:

  • Essential cookies: Necessary for the operation of the site, security, cart and checkout/payment. They generally cannot be disabled because the site would not function properly without them.
  • Functional cookies: Help improve navigation (e.g., preferences, fonts/icons, technical services).
  • Analytics cookies (audience measurement): Help measure how the site is used and improve performance.
  • Advertising/Marketing cookies: Help measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns and enable remarketing.

5. Managing your consent

We use the Axeptio solution to allow you to accept, refuse or customize the use of non-essential cookies. You can change your choices at any time using the cookie settings button or link available on the site.

You can also configure your browser to block certain cookies or alert you when cookies are being set. Please note that disabling certain cookies may affect how the site works (cart, customer account, checkout, etc.).

6. Third-party services and related cookies

The site uses third-party services. Depending on your consent choices, some of them may set cookies or collect technical information (for example, your IP address, device/browser type, or advertising identifiers).
