What are cookies and other tracking technologies we use on this website?
Like many companies, we use cookies and other tracking technologies to ensure you get the best from this website. In this document, when we refer to "cookies", we are referring to cookies and other tracking technologies, as described below.
Cookies
“Cookies” are small text files from a website that are stored on your computer, mobile phone, or other device. Cookies generally contain information that is associated with your web browser, information such as website preferences, login information, or a user ID.
Other tracking technologies
Like other online services and mobile applications, we use both cookies and other technologies such as web beacons/GIFs, pixels tags, embedded scripts, and other tracking technologies. These technologies consist of small transparent image files or other web programming code that record how you interact with the website. They are often used in conjunction with web browser cookies or other identifiers associated with your device. Below is a more detailed description of some of the other types of tracking technologies we may use on this website:
- Pixels tags are small images or small snippets of code inserted into web pages, advertisements, or emails. Pixels tags collect information such as your browser or device and can also set cookies.
- Local storage allows data to be stored locally on your browser or device and includes HTML5 local storage and browser cache.
Statistical modelling
When you browse and interact with our websites, we also collect aggregated and non-identifying information such as device type, time of the day, country, browser type, page URL and conversion type, which is a metric that identifies an action a user has taken on a website (i.e., making a purchase, registering for an event, or subscribing to a newsletter)
We use these anonymized data to build statistical models, allowing us to infer the impact of our ads on users’ actions, such as purchases, while respecting your privacy. This helps us refine our advertisements to make them more relevant to our consumers, thereby enhancing their experience on our websites.
It is important to underscore that this method of gathering information does not, under any circumstances, enable users’ identification.
