Solvay uses this information in the aggregate to measure the use of its sites and to administer and improve them.

Some of Solvay web sites may also deposit certain bits of information called “cookies” in a visitor’s computer. Generally, a cookie assigns a unique number to the visitor that has no meaning outside the assigning site.
