7. Key Marketing Techniques
The operator uses statistical analysis of website traffic through Google Analytics (Google Inc., based in the USA). The operator does not provide personal data to the provider of this service, only anonymized information. The service is based on the use of cookies on the end-user’s device. Regarding user preferences collected by Google’s advertising network, the user may view and edit the information derived from cookies using the tool: https://www.google.com/ads/preferences/
The operator uses the Facebook Pixel. This technology informs the Facebook service (Facebook Inc., based in the USA) that a registered person is using the website. In this case, it is based on data for which the operator is the controller, and the operator does not transmit any additional personal data to Facebook. The service is based on the use of cookies on the end-user’s device.
The operator employs a solution that analyzes user behavior by creating heat maps and recording website behavior. This information is anonymized before being sent to the service provider so that they cannot identify the individual. In particular, passwords and other personal data are not recorded.
