7. Significant Marketing Techniques

  1. The operator uses statistical analysis of website traffic through Google Analytics (Google Inc., based in the USA). The operator does not transfer personal data to this service provider, only anonymized information. The service relies on the use of cookies on the user's end-user device. Regarding information about user preferences collected by the Google advertising network, the user can view and edit the information resulting from cookies using the following tool: https://www.google.com/ads/preferences/
  2. The operator uses remarketing techniques that allow advertising messages to be tailored to the user's behavior on the website, which may create the illusion that the user's personal data is being used to track them. However, in practice, no personal data is transferred from the operator to advertising operators. The technical requirement for such activities is that cookie support is enabled.
  3. The operator uses the Facebook pixel. This technology allows the Facebook service (Facebook Inc., based in the USA) to know that a person registered with it is using the website. In this case, relying on data for which it is itself the controller, the operator does not transfer any additional personal data to the Facebook service. The service relies on the use of cookies on the user's end-user device.
  4. The operator uses a solution that examines user behavior by creating heatmaps and recording activity on the website. This information is anonymized before being sent to the service provider so that it cannot identify any natural person. In particular, entered passwords and other personal data are not recorded.
  5. The operator uses a solution that automates the website's operation in relation to users, e.g., by sending an email to a user after they visit a specific subpage, provided they have consented to receive commercial correspondence from the operator.
