SECTION 10: GOOGLE REMARKETING: WHAT IS IT AND WHY DO WE USE IT?
This technology enables users who have already visited our Website and used our online services and expressed an interest in our offer to be re-targeted with advertising on web pages of the Google partner network. The display of ads is made possible by the use of cookies. The cookies allow users’ behaviour to be analyzed when they visit the Website and then to be used for targeted product recommendations as well as tailoring advertising. The data acquired via tailored advertising by Google LLC. (USA) (known as “Google”) and from visitor data via third-party providers (e.g. age, gender, and interests) is captured by us in Google Analytics.
If you do not want to receive any tailored advertising and/or wish to opt-out of the capture and usage of your data, you can deactivate the use of cookies by Google for such purposes by accessing Google’s ad setting at https://adssettings.google.com and adjusting the settings as required. Please note that if you delete all cookies from your device, new cookies may be stored by Google for these purposes, and you may therefore have to renew your deactivation settings. Alternatively, you can deactivate the use of third-party cookies by going to the deactivation page of the Network Advertising Initiative at https://thenai.org/opt-out/ .

This Platform uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google. Google Analytics uses cookies to analyze your use of the Website or App. The information produced by the cookies regarding your use of the website or app is generally transferred to, and stored on, a Google server in the US. On our Platform, we have activated IP masking so that, within EU member states or other signatory states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, your IP address would be abbreviated by Google in advance.
