This Cookie Policy is intended to describe how cookies are managed for users/visitors (hereinafter, the “User”) of the website https://www.lggroupe.com (hereinafter, the “Website”).
This information is provided in light of French Data Protection Act No. 78-17 of January 6, 1978, as amended by Act No. 2018-493 of June 20, 2018 (hereinafter, the “French Data Protection Act”), as well as Regulation (EU) 2016/679, applicable from May 25, 2018 (hereinafter, the “GDPR”).

The User is requested to read this Cookie Policy carefully before continuing to browse the Website.
What is a cookie?
Cookies are small text files placed on the User’s device when the User visits a website. On each subsequent visit, cookies are sent back to the website that generated them (first-party cookies) or to another website that recognizes them (third-party cookies). Cookies serve various purposes, such as enabling more efficient navigation between pages, remembering favorite websites and, more generally, improving the browsing experience. They may also be used to deliver advertising content targeted to the User based on the User’s interests. Depending on its function and the party that generated it, each cookie may be categorized as a technical cookie, analytics cookie, profiling cookie, first-party cookie, or third-party cookie.
Technical Cookies
Technical cookies are cookies whose storage does not require the User’s prior consent pursuant to Article 32-II of the French Data Protection Act.
This category includes so-called “essential” cookies, meaning cookies that are strictly necessary and enable various features without which the Website could not be used in full.
Essential technical cookies are used exclusively by Holding LG Automobiles; they are therefore first-party cookies. They are stored on the User’s computer (or other device) only for the duration of individual browser sessions. For example, essential technical cookies are used to enable the registration and authentication of a User accessing their account—when the User adds a vehicle to the comparison tool or garage, or configures a vehicle’s equipment—or to provide the User with additional information, such as the vehicles most recently viewed.
A technical cookie of this type is also used to remember the User’s consent regarding the use of cookies on the Website.
Essential technical cookies cannot be disabled through the Website’s features.

Audience Measurement and Profiling Cookies
The Website also uses profiling cookies intended to analyze User behavior in order to improve the User’s browsing experience on the Website and for marketing purposes. Profiling cookies may be used only after the User has given prior, freely given, and informed consent.
To this end, the Website obtains the User’s consent in accordance with Article 32-II of the French Data Protection Act through the banner displayed during the User’s first visit to the Website. Consent may be withdrawn at any time, which disables the relevant cookie. Refusal to consent to the use of profiling cookies does not affect access to the Website, except that the User will not be able to use features or access content that relies on such cookies.
The User may change their settings at any time and choose whether or not to consent to the use of profiling cookies.

Third-Party Cookies
While browsing the Website, the User may also see cookies from third-party websites or web servers appear on their screen (so-called “third-party cookies”). This occurs because the Website may contain various elements, such as images, maps, sounds, or specific links to web pages on other domains, which are stored on servers other than the server hosting the requested page. In other words, these cookies are set directly by website operators or servers other than the Website. In theory, these third parties may place cookies during your visit to the Website and thereby obtain information indicating that you visited the Website. Additional information about the use of cookies is available by clicking the relevant link. If the User does not consent to the storage of third-party cookies, the User may use only those Website features that do not require such cookies to be stored.

- Right to Rectification
The data subject has the right to obtain from the controller, without undue delay, the rectification of inaccurate personal data concerning them.
- Right to Erasure
The data subject has the right to obtain from the controller the erasure of personal data concerning them without undue delay, and the controller is likewise required to erase personal data without undue delay where one of the following grounds applies:

- Right to Restriction of Processing
The data subject has the right to obtain from the controller restriction of processing where:
a) the data subject contests the accuracy of the personal data, for a period enabling the controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data;
b) the processing is unlawful and the data subject opposes the erasure of the personal data and requests the restriction of their use instead;

At any time, the data subject also has the right to object to the processing of personal data concerning them for direct marketing purposes, including profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing.
The data subject has the right to withdraw consent to the processing of their personal data at any time where the processing is based on consent.
The withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent carried out before its withdrawal.
- Right to Data Portability

b) the processing is carried out by automated means.
In exercising the right to data portability, the data subject has the right to have the personal data transmitted directly from one controller to another, where technically feasible.
