3 — How we ask for your consent
When you first visit the site, a cookie banner appears. You can:
- Accept All — allow Analytics and Functional cookies described below;
- Reject All — keep only Essential cookies;
- Manage Preferences — choose categories individually and save.
Closing the banner, scrolling, or continuing to browse does not count as consent. Only an explicit choice counts.
You can reopen your choices at any time via Cookie Settings in the footer, or by using the button below:
Your choice is stored for approximately 6 months (182 days). After that, you will be asked again.

4.4 Marketing / Social media
This website currently does not load marketing pixels or embedded social-network widgets that set marketing cookies on eae-paris.fr. Footer icons for social networks and WhatsApp are ordinary outbound links. If such services are added later, they will be listed here and gated behind consent.
5 — Other third-party resources
The site loads fonts from Google Fonts (fonts.googleapis.com / fonts.gstatic.com). This can involve a connection to Google’s servers when pages load. It is not part of the Analytics or Functional consent categories described above. A future update may self-host fonts to reduce third-party requests.
