- 2. What Do We Do With The Information That We Collect?
We use the information we collect to operate, maintain, and improve our Service, communicate with you, process payments, and comply with legal obligations. We may also use your information for marketing purposes with your consent.
2.1. Type of Cookies
The Services use the following types of cookies for the purposes set out below:
Strictly Necessary Cookies: These cookies are essential to provide you with services available through the Services and to enable you to use some of its features. For example, they allow you to log in to secure areas of the sites or applications and help the content of the pages you request load quickly. Without these cookies, the services that you have asked for cannot be provided, and we only use these cookies to provide you with those services.
Functionality Cookies: These cookies allow the Services to remember choices you make when you use a site or application, such as remembering your language preferences, login details, and changes you make to other parts of your account or preferences. The purpose of these cookies is to provide you with a more personalized experience and to avoid you having to re-enter your preferences every time you use the Services.
Performance Cookies: These cookies are used to collect information about traffic to the services and how users use the services. The information gathered does not identify any individual visitor. It includes the number of visitors to the websites, the pages visited, what time of day they visited, whether they have visited before, and other similar information. We use this information to help operate the services more efficiently, gather broad demographic information, and monitor the level of activity on our services. We use Google Analytics for this purpose. Google Analytics uses its own cookies. It is only used to improve how the services work.
You can find out more information about Google Analytics cookies here.
You can find out more about how Google protects your data here.
You can prevent the use of Google Analytics relating to your use of the services by downloading and installing the browser plugin available via this link.
Targeting Cookies / Advertising Cookies: These cookies are used to deliver adverts more relevant to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement and help measure the effectiveness of the advertising campaigns. They are usually placed by advertising networks with the website operator’s permission. They remember that you have visited a website, and this information is shared with other organizations such as advertisers. Quite often, targeting or advertising cookies will be linked to site functionality provided by the other organization.
2.2. Disabling Cookies
- Google AdWords Conversion Tool: Privacy information of the provider here. Link to Opt-Out here.
- On www.youronlinechoices.com, you can read more about cookies and the individual providers. There you can also opt-out of usage-based online advertising through one or more tools. To go directly to the preference manager, please click here.
2.3. Facebook Custom Audiences
In the context of usage-based online advertising, we also use communication tools of Facebook, in particular custom- and website custom audiences. Basically, a non-reversible and non-personal checksum (hash value) is generated from your usage data, which can be transmitted to Facebook for analysis and marketing purposes. For website custom audiences, the Facebook cookie is addressed. For more information on the purpose and scope of the data collection and further processing and use of the data by Facebook and your options to protect your privacy, please refer to the privacy policy of Facebook, which you can see here. If you want to object to the use of Facebook website custom audiences, you can do so here.
2.4. Pixel Tags
We may also use pixel tags (which are also known as web beacons and clear GIFs) on the Services to track the actions of users on our sites and applications. Unlike cookies, which are stored on the hard drive of your computer or mobile device by a website, pixel tags are embedded invisibly on webpages. Pixel tags measure the success of our marketing campaigns and compile statistics about usage of the services, so that we can manage our content more effectively. The information we collect using pixel tags is not linked to our users personal data.
2.5. Do Not Track Signals
Some Internet browsers may be configured to send “Do Not Track” signals to the online services that you visit. We currently do not respond to do not track signals. To find out more about “Do Not Track,” please visit http://www.allaboutdnt.com.
