§7 PROFILING AND COOKIES

1.    The Controller does not collect automatically any information other than information contained in cookies.
2.    Cookies are data files, including in particular text files, which are stored on the terminal device of a Portal User for the purposes of using the websites making up the Portal. Cookies usually contain the name of the website from which they originate, the duration of their storage on the terminal device and a unique number.
3.    Information from cookies is used for automatic identification of a specific User by the server, which on this basis may generate a website addressed to that User.
4.    Actions that may be taken based on the information about a User include:
a.   preparing statistics that will help to understand how the Portal Users use the websites in order to improve their structure and content;
b.   defining a User’s profile in order to display personalized material on advertising networks, including in particular the Google network.
1.    Two types of cookies are used by the Portal:
a.   session cookies – these are temporary files which remain on the device until the website is exited or the browser closed, and are subsequently removed,
b.   persistent cookies – these files are stored on the User’s device for a fixed period defined in the cookie parameters or until they disable themselves.
5.    Web browsers usually by default allow the storing of cookies on the Users’ terminal devices. The Portal Users may change this by changing the settings. The browser makes it possible to remove cookies. A User may change his/her preferences relating to cookie settings or remove them completely at any time. To do this, the User should change the browser settings. Information on cookies is contained in software settings, i.e. the settings of browsers such as Chrome, Opera, Mozilla Firefox, or Internet Explorer.
6.    Restrictions relating to the use of cookies may affect some functionalities available on the Portal websites.


7.    Cookies stored on the terminal device of a Portal User may also be used by advertisers and partners cooperating with the Portal operator. The Controller recommends reading the privacy policies of such firms in order to become familiar with the principles of using cookies for statistical purposes: Google Analytics privacy policy.
8.    Cookies may be used by advertising networks, including in particular the Google network, to display advertisements tailored to the manner of using the Portal by a particular user. For this purpose, they may store information on the user’s navigation path or the time spent on a particular website.


9.    A User may view and edit information on his/her preferences accumulated by the Google advertising network in cookies using the following tool: https://www.google.com/ads/preferences/.

§8 GOOGLE ANALYTICS

1.    The Portal uses Google Analytics, an analytical service provided by Google. Google Analytics is a system of statistics which provides the Controller with information about a User visiting the Controller’s website. Data about a User collected and processed by Google Analytics contain, e.g. information on how the User found the Shop, the region where the User is located, the system and software used by the User.
2.    The legal basis for using Google Analytics is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, i.e. the Controller’s legitimate interest, which involves preparing statistics and making constant effort to improve the Shop and increase the comfort of using it.
3.    Information about the User’s activities in the Shop generated by cookies may be sent to a Google server in the USA to be stored there. From the EU perspective, in the USA there is no “sufficient level of protection” with respect to personal data processing, which would match the European standards. The required protection level may, however, be confirmed at the level of the individual companies by the EU-US Privacy Shield certification. Google has a Privacy Shield compliance certificate.
4.    The Portal uses Google Analytics with “_anonimizelp()” filename extension and therefore IP addresses are processed further in an abbreviated form only. The purpose is to make it impossible to assign an IP address directly to a person. As a result of activating the IP anonymization option on this website, a User’s IP address will be abbreviated by Google if the User is located in an EU Member State or another country which is a party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. In exceptional cases, a full IP address is sent to a Google server in the USA and abbreviated there.
5.    The IP address sent by your browser for Google Analytics is not combined with other Google data.
6.    A User may use the solution described on https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout to prevent collecting data generated by cookies, which relate to using the website, as well as the processing of such data by Google.
7.    In order to make changes to the volume of data provided, the User should check the settings of its browser. Some of the information is made available automatically, however, a User may change the scope of information sent at any time.
