7. Important Marketing Techniques
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 the provider of this service, only anonymized information.
The service relies on the use of cookies on the user's device. Regarding information about user preferences collected by the Google advertising network, the user can view and edit information derived from cookies using the tool: Google.com/ads/preferences
The Operator uses remarketing techniques to tailor advertising messages to user behavior on the site. While this might create the impression that the user's personal data is being used for tracking, in practice, no personal data is transferred from the Operator to advertising providers.
A technological prerequisite for such actions is enabled cookie support.
The Operator uses the Facebook pixel. This technology allows Facebook (Facebook Inc. based in the USA) to know that a registered user is using the Service. In this case, it relies on data for which Facebook itself is the administrator; the Operator does not transfer any additional personal data to Facebook.
The service relies on the use of cookies on the user's end device. The Operator uses a solution that analyzes user behavior by creating heatmaps and recording on-site behavior.
This information is anonymized before being sent to the service operator, so they do not know which individual it pertains to. In particular, entered passwords and other personal data are not recorded.
The Operator uses a solution that automates the Service's operations in relation to users, for example, by sending an email to a user after visiting a specific subpage, provided they have consented to receive commercial correspondence from the Operator.
