Cookies Policy

Last updated September 2024

To make the Edenred Payment Solutions website work properly, we sometimes place small data files called cookies on your device.

 What are Cookies?

A cookie is a small text file that a website stores on your computer or mobile device when you visit the site.

First-party cookies are cookies set by the website you’re visiting. Only that website can read them. In addition, a website might potentially use external services, which also set their own cookies, known as third-party cookies.

Persistent cookies are cookies saved on your computer and that are not deleted automatically when you quit your browser, unlike a session cookie, which is deleted when you quit your browser.

Every time you visit the Edenred Payment Solutions website, you will be prompted to accept or refuse cookies.

The purpose of cookies is to enable the website to remember your preferences (such as language, etc.) for a certain period of time or to establish anonymised statistics about the browsing experience on the website.

How do we use cookies?

The Edenred Payment Solutions website uses first-party cookies that are set and controlled by Hubspot, an external organisation (https://www.hubspot.com/).

The two types of first-party cookie we use are to:

  1. Visitor preferences

These are set by us and only we can read them. They remember if you have agreed to (or refused) this site’s cookie policy.

  1. Analytics

We use these cookies purely for internal research on how we can improve the service we provide for all our users. The cookies simply assess how you interact with our website, the total time you spend on our website, the time you spend on each page and in what order those pages were visited.

The analytics cookies registered the following information as well:

  • The geographic location of the website visitor
  • What browser and operating system are being used
  • Screen size and whether Flash or Java is installed
  • The referring site

All this information is collected from you as an anonymous user (the data gathered does not identify you personally).

Also, this data is not shared with any third parties or used for any other purpose. The anonymised statistics could be shared with contractors working on communication projects under contractual agreement with Edenred Paytech.

However, you are free to refuse these types of cookies via the cookie banner you’ll see on the first page you visit.
