Cookies

BGL BNP Paribas pays close attention to your expectations and seeks to earn your trust. For that reason we want to provide you with clear information about our policy on sending cookies from this website to your computer insofar as your personal information is concerned.

WHAT IS A COOKIE?

Cookies are small text, image or software files that are placed and stored on your computer, smartphone or any other internet-enabled device when you visit a website. Cookies are very useful because they allow a website to recognise you, log your movements from page to page, and thus provide an additional service: improving your browsing comfort, providing a secure connection and tailoring page content to your interests.

The information contained in cookies is stored for a limited period of time. It relates to your page visits, any advertisements you may have clicked on, the type of browser you are using, and the information you have provided to the site (this avoids having to re-enter your data). This information is sometimes linked to your IP address.

We use these data to compile traffic analysis statistics that can be used to improve the site on the basis of the success of a particular page.

Language cookies: to provide visitors with information in their preferred language, these cookies memorise and reload the last version of the site viewed by the visitor.
