Cookie Policy
Last updated: October 23, 2026 · Version: 2026-10-23
A cookie is a small file that a website you visit stores in your browser. This page lists the cookies used by the Agency FWS website. This English version is provided for convenience; in case of any discrepancy, the French version prevails.
In short
- No advertising or audience measurement cookies.
- We only use cookies that are strictly necessary for the website to work: keeping you signed in, remembering your language and, on the payment page only, preventing fraud.
- Under French law (Article 82 of the French Data Protection Act), these cookies do not require your consent. That is why the website does not show a cookie banner.
Cookies we use
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration | Set by |
|---|---|---|---|
Session token, whose name starts with fws. (preceded by __Secure- on a secure connection) | Keep you signed in to your account and secure your session | 30 days (12 hours for the administrator) | Agency FWS |
Session cache, whose name also starts with fws. (preceded by __Secure- on a secure connection) | Keep your session in memory so it can be checked faster | A few minutes | Agency FWS |
fws_locale | Remember the language you chose (French or English) | 1 year | Agency FWS |
Stripe cookies: __stripe_mid and __stripe_sid | Prevent payment fraud | Set by Stripe | Stripe, on the payment page only |
All these cookies are necessary for the service. Stripe is only loaded on the payment page. Stripe may also use its own technical cookies within the payment forms it displays. For more information, see Stripe's cookie policy.
Your sound preference
Sound is off by default. If you turn it on, your choice is saved in your browser's local storage (localStorage), not in a cookie. It stays in your browser and is only used to remember your choice.
Fonts
The website's fonts are hosted on the website itself. Displaying them does not involve any call to a third-party service.
Audience measurement
The website measures its audience without any cookies:
- Cloudflare Web Analytics, Cloudflare's audience measurement tool, which works without cookies;
- an anonymous count of page views, made by the website itself: it only records the page, the day, the country, the referring site and the type of device, with no IP address, no cookie and no personal data at all.
No audience measurement cookie is therefore stored in your browser.
Managing cookies
You can delete or block cookies in your browser settings. Please note that:
- without the session cookies, you will be signed out of your account;
- without the
fws_localecookie, you will be asked to choose your language again when you arrive at the website's main address; - blocking Stripe cookies may stop payments from working properly.
