Cookie policy

This page explains which cookies and trackers are placed when you visit www.athletesonthemat.com, what they are used for, how long they stay on your device and how you can refuse them or change your mind.

The processing of your personal data is described in our privacy policy.

1. What a cookie is

A cookie is a small file placed on your computer, tablet or phone when you visit a website. It allows the site to recognise you from one page to the next, to keep your basket, or to measure how it is being used.

The word “cookie” is used here in a broad sense: it also covers the equivalent technologies we use, such as browser local storage and tracking pixels.

2. Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies are essential to the operation of the site and to delivering the service you ask for. Without them, the basket, logging in to your account and payment do not work. In accordance with article 82 of the French Data Protection Act (loi Informatique et Libertés), they are exempt from consent and cannot be refused from the banner.

The cookies placed by Stripe, PayPal and Amazon Pay are necessary to secure payment. They are only placed when you reach the basket or the checkout. These companies act as controllers for fraud prevention purposes; you can read their own policies at stripe.com, paypal.com and pay.amazon.eu.

3. Cookies subject to your consent

These cookies are only placed once you have accepted them. If you refuse them, the site remains fully usable: you can browse, order and pay as normal.

4. What we do not use

We use no advertising cookies, no social network pixels and no retargeting tools. We do not sell any browsing data and we build no profiles for advertising purposes.

5. Accepting, refusing, changing your mind

On your first visit, a banner lets you accept or refuse non-essential cookies. Refusing is as easy as accepting: both buttons are presented in the same way. No cookie subject to consent is placed until you have made your choice.

You can change your decision at any time. The button below reopens the consent panel, as does the Axeptio button displayed permanently on the site.

Your choices are kept for 6 months. After that period, the banner is shown again so that you can confirm or change your decision.

Refusing non-essential cookies has no effect on your browsing, your basket, your order or your rights.

6. Maximum durations

In line with the recommendations of the French data protection authority (CNIL):

  • trackers subject to consent have a maximum lifetime of 13 months and are not automatically extended on a new visit;
  • the data they generate is not kept beyond 25 months;
  • your consent choices are kept for 6 months.

7. Settings in your browser

You can also set your browser to accept, refuse or delete cookies. This setting applies to every site you visit and may prevent the basket and the customer account from working properly.

8. Your rights and contact

The data collected through cookies subject to consent is processed by MOTHA, 39 rue Danièle Casanova, 91700 Sainte-Geneviève-des-Bois, France. You have the rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction, objection and portability, as well as the right to withdraw your consent at any time.

For any request: contact@athletesonthemat.com. These rights are set out in detail in our privacy policy.

If you believe your rights are not being respected, you can lodge a complaint with the French data protection authority: CNIL, 3 place de Fontenoy, TSA 80715, 75334 Paris Cedex 07, France, www.cnil.fr.
