Browsing the Hérès Avocats website (hereinafter referred to as the “Site”) may result in the installation of cookie(s) on your terminal. A cookie is a small file, which does not allow you to be identified, but which records information relating to the navigation of a terminal on a site. The data thus obtained is intended to facilitate subsequent navigation on the Site, and is also intended to allow various measures of frequentation.

You have the ability to set terminals to accept all cookies, to notify you when a cookie is issued, or to never accept any cookies.

Cookies do not cause any damage to the terminal, but make it easier to retrieve preferences, pre-fill certain fields and adapt the content of the services of the visited site. This data allows us to improve the ergonomics and services according to your interests.
