A cookie assigns a unique numerical identifier to your web browser and may allow us to recognize you as a user who has previously visited the Site and link your use of the Site to other information about you, including information about your use of the Site and your Personal Data. Cookies may also be used to enhance your experience on the Site (for example, by remembering your ID so that you can log in easily, by keeping you logged in to the Site after you have provided your password and by keeping your items in your shopping cart while you are browsing) or to collect general usage information and aggregate statistical information, and to detect and prevent fraud. Most internet browsers can be configured to detect cookies and give you the opportunity to refuse them, but refusing cookies may, in some cases, hinder or prevent your use of the Website or its functions. For more information on the use of cookies, including how to manage or delete them, please visit www.youronlinechoices.eu.
Local shared objects, such as "Flash cookies", may be stored on your computer or device through a media player or other software installed on your computer or device. Local shared objects work very similarly to cookies, but they cannot be managed in the same way. Depending on how the local shared objects are configured on your computer or device, you can manage them using the software settings. For more information on managing Flash cookies, for example, click here.
A web beacon (also known as a "clear gif" or "web beacon") is a tiny image, typically a single pixel, that may be placed on a web page or in electronic communications we send to you to measure the effectiveness of our content, for example, by counting the number of people who visit our Site or by checking to see if you have opened any of our emails or viewed any of our web pages.
These tracking technologies may be deployed by us and/or our service providers or partners on our behalf. They allow us to assign you a unique number and to link your Site Use Information to other information about you, including your Personal Information.

Through these platforms and features, we receive Personal Data and Site Usage Data about you, which is also subject to this Privacy Policy. In addition, third party social networking and blogging platforms have their own privacy policies, which explain how the third parties who provide them use and protect your information.
Your access rights
You may view, update or change some of the Personal Data stored in your user account on the Site (if you have one) by logging in to the "My Account" area or a similar part of the Site or by contacting us at the contact details you will find under "Contact" below. We may ask you to provide proof of your identity and other details before we can provide you with information, correct errors or delete data.

Interest-based Advertising and Website Analytics
We may collect information about your online activities on our Site in order to provide you with advertising for products and services tailored to your individual interests. We may also collect information for this purpose from third party websites on which our advertisements are displayed. This section of our Privacy Policy explains in detail how you can make these choices.
You may see certain advertisements on other websites because we work with advertising partners (including ad networks) for remarketing and retargeting purposes. Our advertising partners allow us to target our messages based on demographic, interest based, and contextual considerations. These partners track your online activities over time and from site to site by collecting information in an automated manner, including through the use of third party cookies, web server logs and web beacons. They use this information to show you advertisements tailored to your individual interests. Information that may be collected by our advertising partners includes data about your visits to websites within the relevant advertising networks, such as the pages or advertisements you view and the actions you take on the websites. This data collection takes place both on our Site and on third party sites that are part of the advertising networks. This process also helps us to monitor the effectiveness of our marketing activities. For example, we use certain targeted advertising services of our advertising partners to show you our advertisements on other websites based on your previous visits to our Site and other online activities.
We may also use third-party web analytics services on our Site, such as Google Analytics. The service providers who operate these services use technologies such as cookies, web server logs, and web beacons to help us analyze how visitors use our Site. Information collected through these means (including the state and zip code of the location from which our visitors originate and the IP addresses of their computers) is provided to these service providers, who use the data to evaluate the use of our Site. You can deactivate the possibility of Google Analytics analysing your browsing on our website.
Security
Despite our best efforts to protect the security and integrity of Sensitive Personal Data collected through this Site, the very nature of the Internet as a global communications vehicle means that we cannot guarantee that any information is absolutely secure from intrusion by third parties, including hackers, at the time of transmission over the Internet or while it is stored on our system or otherwise in our custody.
If you correspond with us by e-mail or by using web forms such as the "Contact" function on our Site, you should be aware that your transmission may not be secure. A third party may be able to see the information you send and that passes through that medium. We are not responsible in any way for the disclosure of your data as a result of errors or unauthorized acts of third parties during or after transmission.

The collection and use of your data on these sites is governed by the privacy policies posted on those sites (and not this Privacy Policy). We encourage you to read the privacy policy of every website you visit after you leave the Site to find out how your data will be treated by others.
