This log data includes:

Cookie Data:
We also use “cookies” (small text files sent by your computer each time you visit our website, specific to your browser) or similar technologies to capture log data.
When we use cookies or other similar technologies, we use session cookies (which last until you close your browser) or persistent cookies (which last until you or your browser delete them).
Cookies are activated and used during your navigation on the MEURENS & RODRIGUES srl website. These are small text files, usually consisting of numbers and letters, which pose no security risk to your computer, tablet, or smartphone.
Cookies allow us to:
- Understand visitor behavior on different pages of the site
- Measure visitor activity on the site and their frequency of return to adapt the site to the use of its visitors
- Measure the number of visits, the number of pages viewed
You can view these different cookies and learn about their utility through the list below.
These cookies are enabled by default on your web browser. However, you can configure your browser to notify you each time cookies are created and potentially prevent their creation. Here are the steps for the four main browsers:
- Chrome: http://support.google.com/chrome/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=95647
- Firefox: http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/enable-and-disable-cookies-website-preferences
- Safari: https://support.apple.com/kb/PH21411?locale=en_US

The listing and explanations below were written in English and come directly from the cited services.
WordPress Cookies
- wordpress_[hash] : On login, wordpress uses the wordpress_[hash] cookie to store your authentication details. Its use is limited to the admin console area, /wp-admin/
- wordpress_logged_in_[hash] : After login, wordpress sets the wordpress_logged_in_[hash] cookie, which indicates when you’re logged in, and who you are, for most interface use.
- wp-settings-{time}-[UID] : WordPress also sets a few wp-settings-{time}-[UID] cookies. The number on the end is your individual user ID from the users database table. This is used to customize your view of admin interface, and possibly also the main site interface.
- wordpress_test_cookie : Tests whether or not the browser has cookies enabled.
The actual cookies contain hashed data, so you don’t have to worry about someone gleaning your username and password by reading the cookie data. A hash is the result of a specific mathematical formula applied to some input data (in this case your user name and password, respectively). It’s quite hard to reverse a hash (bordering on practical infeasibility with today’s computers). This means it is very difficult to take a hash and “unhash” it to find the original input data.
WordPress uses the two cookies to bypass the password entry portion of wp-login.php. If WordPress recognizes that you have valid, non-expired cookies, you go directly to the WordPress Administration interface. If you don’t have the cookies, or they’re expired, or in some other way invalid (like you edited them manually for some reason), WordPress will require you to log in again, in order to obtain new cookies.

Device Information:
In addition to log data, we collect information about the device you use to visit our website:
- Device type
- Operating system
- Settings
- Blocking data
- Geolocation data
The collection of all or part of this information often depends on the type of device you are using and its settings. For example, different types of information are available depending on whether you are using a Mac or a PC, or an iPhone or an Android phone. To learn more about the information your device provides to us, refer to the rules of your device manufacturer or software provider.
However, this information is not recorded with your profile and is therefore anonymous.
As for geolocation data, it is captured when you are logged into your account and use the members’ directory function of the MEURENS & RODRIGUES srl mobile application, and it is only used within that context. A malicious individual could potentially check if you are within a radius of x km/m from your location.
8/ Data Storage Duration :
The storage duration applies to user and event data associated with cookies, user identifiers (User ID, for example), and advertising identifiers (DoubleClick cookies, Android advertising identifier, Apple advertising identifier for advertisers, for example).
The data storage and retention period is set at 26 months.
When the storage period expires, the data will be automatically deleted each month.
If the storage duration is changed, the affected data is deleted during the next monthly cycle. For example, if the duration is changed from 26 to 14 months, all data older than 14 months is deleted during the next monthly cycle.
For more information on the storage duration of your data, we invite you to consult Google’s documentation on the matter. (https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/7667196?hl=en)
