Remarketing and Third Party Vendors
Like many sites, ULTIMATE DOG GEAR employs tracking technologies, such as cookies and web beacons (also known as clear GIF technology or “action tags”) to speed up your navigation of the Site, recognise you and your access privileges, and track your Site usage.
Cookies are small pieces of information that are stored as text files by your Internet browser on your computer’s hard drive. Most Internet browsers are initially set to accept cookies. You can set your browser to refuse cookies from web sites or to remove cookies from your hard drive, but if you do, you will not be able to access or use portions of the Site. We have to use cookies to enable you to select products, place them in an online shopping cart, and to purchase those products. If you do this, we keep a record of your browsing activity and purchases. THE SITE’S COOKIES DO NOT AND CANNOT INFILTRATE A USER’S HARD DRIVE TO GATHER A USER’S CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. Our cookies are not “spyware.”
Web beacons assist in delivering cookies and help us determine whether a web page on the Site has been viewed and, if so, how many times. For example, any electronic image on the Site, such as an ad banner, can function as a web beacon.
We may use third-party advertising companies to help tailor site content to users or to serve ads on our behalf. More specifically, we use the services of “Google Ads” and “Facebook”, both third party vendors who use remarketing tracking cookies. This means we will continue to show ads to you across the internet and social media channels related to our site or actions that you have taking whilst visiting our site, such as viewing an item or adding an item to your cart. As always, we respect your privacy and are not collecting any identifiable information through the use of Google or Facebook’s third party remarketing systems.
These third-party vendors, such as Google and Facebook – may employ cookies and web beacons to measure advertising effectiveness (such as the web pages visited or products purchased and in what amount) and use cookies to serve ads based on a user’s prior visits on our website. This allows us to make special offers and continue to market our products and services to those who have shown an interest in our products and services. Any information that these third parties collect via cookies and web beacons is not linked to any personal information collected by us.
The collection, use, and disclosure of information, including Personal Data, collected by such third-party tracking technologies, such as cookies, are subject to the privacy and data protection policies of the third-party vendors and are not under our control. For more information on third-party advertising-related cookies and how to opt-out of them, please visit Your Online Choices. If you want to opt-out of seeing ads on Facebook based on information we’ve received from other websites, you can control this in your ad preferences: https://facebook.com/ads/preferences.
You may reject first-party and third-party tracking technologies through the settings on your browser. Note that this may result in the loss of Website functionality, restrict your use of the Website, or delay or affect the way in which the Website operates.
