10. Web analytics by Adobe


The web analytic services on our website and (mobile) applications are provided by adobe (www.adobe.com). This means that visiting our website or (mobile) applications will cause a cookie by adobe to be stored on your computer or mobile device, except when your browser settings do not allow for such cookies (see Pandora Cookie Policy). 

 

This further means that when visiting our website or (mobile) application, the web analytics data described above in chapter 2 – including the “click-stream data”, the data from “web beacons and tracking links” and information stored in adobe’s cookies – will be sent to adobe for analysis for and on behalf of Pandora. Please note that if you have created an online profile at our website or (mobile) application, and if you are logged in to this profile, a unique number identifying this profile is also being sent to Adobe in order to be able to match the web analytics data to this profile. 

 

Adobe acts as an agent to Pandora, which means that Pandora solely determines the purposes for which the data is being used, and that Adobe will not disclose the information to any third parties (except when required to do so by law or court order). In privacy terms, this means that Pandora is the “controller” and Adobe the “processor”. You can find out more about the relationships between Pandora and Adobe in the Adobe’s privacy policy under “Privacy Policy for Our Provision of Services” at http://www.adobe.com/uk/privacy/analytics.html .

 

If you do not wish for information about your behaviour on our website or (mobile) application to be collected and assessed by Adobe, you can apply for a visitor opt-out.

11. Re-targeting Technologies


Our website and (mobile) application use re-targeting technologies. This enables us to advertise directly to our visitors, who were already interested in our shop and our products, from our partners’ websites. We believe that the display of a personalized, interest-based advertising is more interesting for our customers than advertising that does not have any personal connection.

 

We also work with other companies who use tracking technologies to serve ads on our behalf across the Internet. These companies may collect information about your visits to our websites or (mobile) applications and your interaction with our communications, including advertising.

 

Re-targeting technologies analyse your cookies and display advertisement based on your past surfing behaviour. For further information on cookies, please refer to section 2 of this privacy policy.
