We currently use the following types of cookies, which are set by the Website:

– Analytics cookies: These cookies allow us to recognize and count the number of users and to see how users use and explore the Website. These cookies help us to improve the Website, for example by ensuring that users find what they are looking for easily. Additionally, we use third party session recording technologies that help us better understand our users’ experience, however, the recorded data is pseudonymized.
– Targeting and Advertising cookies: These cookies record visits of a user on the Website, the pages a user visits and the links a user follows to enable us to make the Website more relevant to the user’s interests and to help us serve ads that might be of interest to the user.

Use of Google Analytics. We use Google as a service provider to collect and analyze information about how users use the Website, including by collecting website activity data through first-party cookies set by our domains, and third-party cookies set by Google. Because we activated IP anonymization for Google Analytics, Google will anonymize the last octet of a particular IP address and will not store your full IP address. Google will use the information only to provide Google Analytics services to us and will not use this information for other purposes. In addition, the Website uses Google Signals, which are also services provided by Google that help us to run remarketing campaigns, collect more accurate data, and understand in a better way how users engage with the Website on different devices (cross-device activity). Google Signals applies to Google users who accept personalized advertising on their Google accounts. The information collected by Google Analytics may be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States pursuant to standard contractual clauses approved by the EU and the adequacy decision of the EU Commission C (2023) 4745 confirming an adequate level of data protection in the US under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework and applicable national extensions (for example the UK Extension to the EU-US Data Privacy Framework).

9. Transfers of Your Personal Information to Other Countries
Your personal information may be shared globally with service providers and other third parties. Transfers are necessary for a variety of reasons, including the operation and provision of the services stated in the Website’s Terms & Conditions and this Privacy Notice to fix, analyze, and improve the Website and services. Whenever your personal information is transferred to countries outside the EEA and other regions with comprehensive data protection laws, the information will be transferred in accordance with this Privacy Notice, as permitted by the applicable laws and based on appropriate mechanisms.
Where applicable, we rely on decisions of the European Commission, known as “adequacy decisions,” recognizing that certain countries offer a level of protection of personal data that is essentially equivalent to the EEA.
In other situations, we rely on standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission (and the equivalent standard contractual clauses for the UK, where appropriate) or on derogations provided for under the applicable law to transfer information to a third country.
For more information or to obtain a copy of our standard contractual clauses, please see the section “Contact Information” below on how to contact us.
10. Retention of Personal Information
Your personal information will only be retained for as long as your account is active, or for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we processed it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.
To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, several factors are considered, including the types of personal data, the risk of harm from any unauthorized disclosure, the purposes of processing and whether we can achieve this outcome by another means without having to process it.
Where it is longer necessary to process your personal information for the purposes set out in this Privacy Notice, your personal information will be deleted.
For more information on data retention periods, please see the section “Contact Information” below on how to contact us.
