About cookies

We use various cookies in order to improve the interactivity of our website and our services.

 
What is a "cookie"?

A "cookie" is a small string of information identified by a name, which can be sent to your browser by a website to which you log on. Your web browser will keep it for a certain amount of time and will send it back to the web server each time you log on. Cookies have numerous purposes: they can be used to remember your customer ID on an e-commerce website, your shopping basket preferences, an identifier used to track your browsing activities for statistical or advertising purposes, etc.
 
3 types of cookies are used on our website www.rte-france.com:

 

First-party cookies required to run the website


 
These cookies are used to run the website as effectively as possible. You may reject them and delete them by using your browser’s settings. However, this could adversely affect the quality of the user’s web experience.

 

Cookie name Purpose Duration period

cookie-agreed-categories Indicates which cookies the user has accepted. 100 days
SSESS#

Audience measurement cookies - Matomo
 

In order to tailor the website to the demands of its visitors, we measure the number of visits, the number of pages viewed, the activity of website visitors and their return frequency.

Matomo, one of the statistical tools used by this website, generates the following cookies:
 

Cookie name Purpose Duration period
MATOMO_SESSID Used for the anonymous tracking of the website’s audience (the IP is made anonymous and cannot be identified by RTE). 15 days
_pk_ses# Shows an active visitor’s session. If a cookie is not present, it means that a visitor’s session was more than 30 minutes ago, and a visit count is increased in a pk_id cookie. 30 minutes
_pk_id# Used to recognize visitors and hold their various properties. 13 months


 

We also collect your IP address in order to determine the city from which you have logged on. This address is immediately made anonymous after use. RTE consequently has no means of using this information to identify a physical person.

All website visitors (www.rte-france.com) are not required to consent to the use of Matomo because settings ensure that users remain completely anonymous as recommended by the CNIL (France’s freedom-of-information authority).

RTE keeps collected personal data (cookie ID) for a period of 13 months. This data is not passed on to third parties or used for other purposes.
You may reject these cookies and the statistical analysis of your browsing data.
