Use of Cookies

Our Site uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to enable us to analyze how people use the Site; to improve and personalize your experience of our Site; to help us communicate with you about your account or the Site; to deliver direct marketing communications to you; and to serve advertising that, on some platforms, is tailored to you based on your browsing behavior and other information held about you.

A web browser cookie (“cookie”) is a small text file that is sent by a website to your computer or mobile device where it is stored by your web browser. This enables a website to recognize you as you move around the site and/or each time you revisit. Cookies are used for a wide variety of purposes such as to keep you logged in, to remember what’s in your basket if you’re shopping online, to remember your preferences and settings, to analyze how the site is used by you, and to serve advertising to you. 

Cookies may be served to you by the website you are visiting (a “first party cookie”) or by another organization providing services to that website, such as an analytics company or advertising network (a “third party cookie”). They will either be stored for the duration of your visit (a “session cookie”) or they will remain on your device for a fixed period, which could be months or even years, to remember you across multiple browsing sessions (a “persistent cookie”). 

Personalized Targeted Advertisement

Based on your on- and offline purchase history, your behavior on websites (visited pages, links clicked) and interaction with chatbot(s), we will set-up and maintain your personal digital marketing profile to make sure that we only show you advertisements that will most likely suit your personal taste. This is called targeted advertising. The more successful we are in targeted advertising, the higher our (prospective) customer satisfaction. To be able to show you targeted advertisements, we can also match your data profile with customers that have a similar profile. 

In order to support our targeted advertising we make use of a Data Management Platform (“DMP”). In the DMP information is collected on how our consumers respond to our products, brand and advertisements. This information is collected from different sources available to us offline, online and mobile, for instance when you are visiting our website. Next to that it is enriched with information collected by others, such as data relating to the local weather. Based on that information the DMP can help our marketing teams to find and define relevant segments of online audiences to direct marketing campaigns at to best reach them, within and beyond BERNARD JACKSON’s digital channels. If your digital marketing profile falls within such a segment you will probably receive our advertising tailored to the interests of the segment we placed you in on Facebook, Google properties, online properties of so-called affiliate parties and other online and offline locations and materials, which is targeted advertising. 

We may also use the data for retargeting by showing you a targeted advertisement on a third-party website that is linked to an event on our website, for example a specific purchase that was abandoned. 

In addition, Facebook, Google and other online actors can independently register your use of our advertisements. Please read the privacy policies of such third parties as we are not responsible for the personal data they process for their own purposes. 

Tracking Technologies: Web Beacons/Gifs, Pixels, Page Tags, Script

Web pages, emails and apps may contain small, transparent image files or lines of code that help record how you interact with the online services. These tracking technologies are often used in conjunction with cookies (or the unique identifier of your device), and they are used to help website and app publishers (including Shudder) to better analyze and improve their services and to target advertising based on your browsing behavior and interests. For example, we may use these technologies to learn about the web pages you visit or which elements of a page or application you viewed; when and for how long you interacted with our content; whether you viewed and/or clicked on an advertisement; and whether you opened or clicked on marketing communications that we may send to you. 

Tracking Via Mobile Applications and Other Applications

When you use our applications we may record unique identifiers associated with your device (such as the device ID and IP address), your activity within the applications, and your network location. We use cookies and tracking technologies for a variety of reasons, such as to enable us to recognize when you have logged in, to improve your experience of the Site, to learn about how users interact with and use the Site , to deliver advertising, and to remember your preferences. Some of the advertisements and marketing messages we send may be intended to reflect your interests as inferred by your activities on the Site and other online services a common practice known as interest-based advertising or behavioral advertising. Third parties may similarly use cookies and tracking technologies to deliver advertising and marketing messages relevant to you, which may be based on your online activities on various online services.

We list below the two main associations that represent the advertising networks allowed on our Site. You can visit their websites to opt out of all cookies served by their members and they will explain what happens as a result of opting out. In opting out, a cookie will be set to let advertisers know not to use your data for targeted advertising purposes; you will still see advertisements, they just won’t be tailored to your interests. If you clear your cookies via your browser, you will need to go through the opt-out process again.
