7. Key marketing techniques

  1. The Operator uses statistical analysis of website traffic via Google Analytics (Google Inc., based in the USA). The Operator does not transfer personal data to the operator of this service, only anonymised information. The service is based on the use of cookies on the user's end device. With regard to information on user preferences collected by the Google advertising network, the user can view and edit information derived from cookies using the tool: https://www.google.com/ads/preferences/
  2. The Operator uses remarketing techniques that allow advertising messages to be matched to the user's behaviour on the website, which may give the impression that the user's personal data is used to track them; in practice, however, no personal data is transferred from the Operator to advertising operators. The technological prerequisite for such activities is that cookies are enabled.
  3. The Operator uses a solution that automates the operation of the Website in relation to users, e.g. one that can send an e-mail to a user after they visit a specific page, provided they have consented to receive commercial correspondence from the Operator.
