Google Analytics

We use this information to analyse trends among our visitors to help improve our website via our web analytics tool Google Analytics. Although Google Analytics places a cookie on your web browser to identify you as a unique user the next time you visit our website, the cookie cannot be used by anyone but Google. Google also uses specific identifiers to help collect information about the use of our website.

Facebook (Visitor Action Pixel)

We may from time to time use Facebook Advertising, Facebook Pixel Re-Marketing, and communications. This allows user behaviour to be tracked after they have clicked on a Facebook ad. This enables us to measure the effectiveness of our Facebook ads. The data collected is anonymous to us, i.e. we do not see the personal data of individual users. However, this data is stored and processed by Facebook. Facebook may link this information to your Facebook account and also use it for its own promotional purposes, in accordance with Facebook’s Data Usage Policy https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/. You can opt-out of Facebook’s use of cookies and Facebook Pixel Re-Marketing through settings on your Facebook Account.

Google Remarketing

On our website, we use Google’s marketing and remarketing services to allow us to display relevant ads based on what pages on our website you have viewed. The advertising will be displayed using cookies. This cookie doesn’t record any personal information or identify you personally. The cookie user data is collected by Google and transmitted to and stored by servers in the USA.

One of the Google marketing services we use is the online advertising program Google AdWords. The information collected by this cookie is used to generate conversion statistics for our AdWords campaigns (e.g. see the total number of users who clicked on our AdWords ad). Again we will not receive any information that personally identifies users.

If you would prefer to not receive any targeted advertising, you can deactivate the use of cookies for these purposes through Google by visiting the website: https://www.google.com/settings/ads/.

Google has its own independent data protection policy which can be accessed here (https://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy/).

How do we use your personal information? 

We use the Device Information that we collect to help us screen for potential risk and fraud (in particular, your IP address), and more generally to improve and optimize our Site (for example, by generating analytics about how our customers browse and interact with the Site, and to assess the success of our marketing and advertising campaigns).

Finally, we may also share your Personal Information to comply with applicable laws and regulations, to respond to a subpoena, search warrant or other lawful request for information we receive, or to otherwise protect our rights.
