Our privacy policy and you

We know that data privacy is a top issue today, and that is why we want to ensure that you can enjoy interacting with us on our website in the knowledge that your personal information is fully protected and that it remains under your control.

Here you will find a comprehensive and transparent guide to how we collect the data, why we need it, how we use it, and how you benefit. Take a moment to discover the full facts about data privacy.

We collect anonymous data about visitors’ behavior on our website by using cookies or similar technologies. This data is stored without any reference to an individual. With your consent, we also store your personal data, e.g. if you sign up to receive

In general there is a distinction between the two types of data we collect:

Anonymous data or behavioural data relates to the way people use our products and services. It is collected whenever someone browses our websites, and is not traced to any individual. Anonymous data includes, for example, the date and time of a visit, the country from which the site was accessed, browser version, and type of device.

WHY: Anonymous data helps us optimise the design and content of our sites according to users’ needs, e.g. adapting the visual appearance according to screen size.

Personal data, as the name suggests, is about you as an individual. With your consent, this data is stored in your personal record. Subject to your consent, it is gathered when you interact with us. Interacting with us includes signing up for a newsletter or sending us a message via our contact form. In these cases we collect such personal data as email, name and/or phone number.

WHY: We need your email to send you the newsletter you requested, or your phone number follow up on your enquiry. With this data we can also address you personally in any communication.

 
  • Examples of anonymous data

    Here is more about the kind of behavioural data we collect, why we are interested in it and how you also benefit from this type of data collection.

    WHEN DO PEOPLE VISIT OUR WEBSITE?
    Anonymous data includes the dates and times of visits to our website and the duration of the visits. We use these statistics to determine how many visitors we have and when they prefer to to use our site. With this information we can send emails when people are most likely to interact with us.

    WHAT IS VIEWED BY VISITORS?
    The articles read, the services used as well as the page on which people leave the site enable us to customise content according to preferences. This includes removing less popular content.

    WHERE ARE PEOPLE ACCESSING FROM?
    We note the countries, regions or cities and URLs from which people access our website. We need this data to provide location-based services or the right language settings.

    WHICH DEVICE IS BEING USED?
    The devices that are used — smartphone, tablet or desktop — as well as the operating system and browser enable us to improve our visitors’ web experience by automatically matching screen size and bandwidth.

    HOW DO VISITORS GET TO OUR WEBSITE?
    We analyse how people find our website: through a search engine, a newsletter, or a link on one of our partners’ websites, for example. We use this information to assess our visibility in search engines, the relevance of specific communications channels and the impact of our campaigns.
     

  • Types of personal data we collect

    Personal data that you contribute includes:

    PERSONAL CONTACT DATA
    This is data such as your name, email address or phone number. It allows us to contact you in person. It also enables us to send you marketing communications and location-based offers by email, post or SMS. You can therefore participate in consumer loyalty or rewards programs. Your personal data can also be used for prize or eligibility assessment in competitions and promotions. We might also need to use your personal data for operational reasons, such as website security and maintenance, and for demographic studies and audits.

    ACCOUNT LOGIN DATA
    Some activities such as website registrations require you to establish a user account. Unique login data stored might include ID/email, user name, password and/or security question/answer. This is essentially a security measure to prevent frauds.

    PAYMENT DATA
    If you create an account with us when making purchases, your payment data is stored under your account profile. This includes credit card details (cardholder name, number, expiration date) or other forms of payment means as well as the associated billing name and address.

    DEMOGRAPHIC DATA
    This data is about you as a person and your lifestyle options. Examples include your date of birth, gender, postcode, city and state, favourite products, hobbies and interests. This data enables us to tailor and develop products to your needs. We can also use this data to provide you with personalised website content or interest-based advertising.

    SOCIAL NETWORK DATA
    Whenever you allow social networks like Facebook or social networking features such as Facebook Connect to share the personal data in your profile, we are able to retrieve some of this data — your name, email, gender, birthday, city, picture, user ID or friend list, for example. We provide a variety of social features so that you can share content or tell friends about certain news, products or promotions. If you provide a friend’s email address for a tell-a-friend program, we check whether your friend has also opted for communications with us before using their data. Social features are also used for running competitions and to enable you to upload or share recipes, pictures, videos, artwork or other content.

    CONTENT GENERATED BY YOU
    This refers to any content that you create and then share with us by uploading it to one of our websites or applications, including one of our Facebook pages. Examples are photos, videos, personal stories, or other media and content.

    YOUR FEEDBACK
    We store the data that you wish to share about your experience in using our products and services, e.g. your comments and suggestions, testimonials or other questions or feedback related to our products. Typically it's collected in the form of surveys, panels, contact forms, emails and through social media.

  • Why we collect personal data

    Personal data is collected to serve you better. We need your email address to send you the newsletter requested, or your postal address to deliver your order. Your name and title are required to address you correctly in communications; your phone number is kept to provide information about your order or hear about your experience with us, or to provide marketing news if you have selected this option. Knowing about your preferences allows us to tailor special offers to your interests. It´s that easy: the better we know you, the better we can serve you.

  • What we will not do

    We will not misuse or disclose your personal data, or sell it to any third party.

    Neither will we track your browsing behaviour beyond our own digital properties or attempt to access personal data on your computer.

  • You are in control

    Unless you actively provide personal data and give your consent to its use, we will gather only anonymous behavioural data – even going so far as to encode IP addresses to prevent the data being traced to any individual. Furthermore, you can disable the cookies at any time so that we will no longer track certain data. Visit our Cookies section to learn more.

    Personal data collected with your consent will be used solely for the purposes for which it was provided. It is you who decides how your data is used. You may request access to the personal data we hold about you and withdraw consent at any time by contacting us.
