7. Important marketing techniques

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 anonymized information. The service is based on the use of cookies on the user's end device. With regard to information about 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/
The operator uses remarketing techniques to tailor advertising messages to the user's behavior on the website, which may give the illusion that the user's personal data is being used to track them, but in practice no personal data is transferred from the operator to advertising operators. The technological prerequisite for such activities is that cookies are enabled.
The Operator uses Facebook pixels. This technology allows Facebook (Facebook Inc., based in the USA) to know that a person registered with Facebook is using the Website. In this case, it is based on data for which it is the administrator; the Operator does not transfer any additional personal data to Facebook. The service is based on the use of cookies on the user's end device.
The Operator uses a solution that examines user behavior by creating heat maps and recording behavior on the website. This information is anonymized before it is sent to the service operator so that they do not know which individual it relates to. In particular, passwords and other personal data are not recorded.
The operator uses a solution that automates the operation of the Website in relation to users, e.g., sending an email to a user after visiting a specific subpage, provided that the user has consented to receive commercial correspondence from the Operator.
