Collecting data

Every user leaves data behind the websites/apps that are visited (often without noticing this). We find it essential that a user knows which information is collected and how the user can manage, change, or delete this.

In our privacy statement, you can read which information is collected and how you can manage this data yourself in our cookie policy.

If you use our service for the first time, we ask you to agree with our privacy statement. If you do not agree, you, therefore, can not use our service.

Why do we use your data?

  • To improve the service;
  • to display marketing and advertising material and general and personalized content and advertisements;
  • to obtain statistical insights (not personal) which we and/or our business partners can use to manage and improve our service;
  • to comply with all applicable rules/jurisdiction.

We only collect your data if you give consent to this. If you agree with our privacy statement, you agree that we use:

  • tracking/analysis technology;
  • non-personal information;
  • cookies, pixels, and plugins.

Tracking/analysis of technology

For our service, we use specific monitoring and tracking technologies. These are mostly technologies offered by external service providers (such as Google Analytics). We are using these technologies to improve and provide the user with a better experience. These technologies enable us, for example, to:

  • keep the consent of our users;
  • secure our service by detecting abnormal behavior;
  • identifying technical problems and improving the overall performance of our service;
  • make and check analyzes;
  • deliver you targeted ads that are based on your browsing activities and derived interests.

Google Analytics
For our service, we use Google Analytics, a web analysis service offered by Google, which tracks and reports on website traffic. Google uses the collected data to track and monitor the use of our service. We are sharing the information with other Google services. Google may use the collected data to place and personalize the ads of its advertising network.

If you don’t want us to send your data to Google Analytics, you can use the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en

The add-on prevents the Google Analytics JavaScript code (ga.js, analytics.js, and dc.js) running on websites from sharing visitor activity information with Google Analytics. You can also go to the Google Privacy & Conditions web page to read more about the privacy policy of Google: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en
