Each browser allows Users, in principle, to configure it so that cookies or types of cookies can be systematically accepted or refused, depending on the nature of their issuers or the type of connection terminal. Choosing the “Do Not Track” option or any other private navigation method does not systematically prevent the use of targeting or advertising cookies.

These operators are likely to identify Users, where appropriate, even when no interaction is generated with social media operators, particularly if their accounts opened with them were activated on the connection terminal used. Dolead has no control over cookies that may be used by these social media operators and, in any case, is not able to read them. Dolead invites Users to familiarise themselves with the Privacy Policies and/or the Cookies Usage Charters implemented by the aforementioned operators.
