PROFILING

As part of the Website, we conduct profiling activities – this takes place only if you allow it. Profiling is based on an automatic evaluation of what products or services you may be interested in, using information about the content displayed by you. Thanks to this, product or service advertisements displayed in the Website will be more suited to you and your needs. The kind of profiling we carry out does not lead to making decisions which would have legal effects for you or would affect you in any similarly relevant way.

 

ADS PERSONALISATION

If ad personalisation is turned on, Google will use your information to make your ads more useful for you. If ad personalisation is off, Google will not collect or use your information to create an ad profile or personalise the ads that Google shows to you. You will still see ads, but they may not be as useful. Ads may still be based on the topic of the website or app that you’re looking at, your current search terms or on your general location, but not on your interests, search history or browsing history. Your information can still be used for the other purposes mentioned above, such as to measure the effectiveness of advertising and protect against fraud and abuse (more:  https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites).
