DEFINITIONS

Non-personal data (NPD) is information that is in no way personally identifiable.

Personal data (PD) means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person ('data subject'); an identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person. PD is in many ways the same as Personally Identifiable Information (PII). However, PD is broader in scope and covers more data.

Visitor is someone who merely browses this website. A Member is someone who has registered with this website to use its services or to buy products. The term User is a collective identifier that refers to either a Visitor or a Member.

  • Session Cookies
    These cookies allow websites to link the actions of a user during a browser session. They may be used for a variety of purposes, such as remembering what a user has put in their shopping cart as they browse a website. Session cookies also permit users to be recognized as they navigate a website so that any item or page changes they make are remembered from page to page. Session cookies expire after a browser session; thus, they are not stored long term.
  • Persistent Cookies
    These cookies are stored on a user's device in between browser sessions, which allows the user's preferences or actions across a site (or, in some cases, across different sites) to be remembered. Persistent cookies may be used for a variety of purposes, including remembering users' choices and preferences when using a website or to target advertising to them.

I may also use cookies for:

I may also use a technology called web beacons to collect general information about your use of this website and your use of special promotions or newsletters. The information I collect by web beacons allows me to statistically monitor the number of people who open my emails. Web beacons also help me to understand the behaviour of my customers, members, and visitors.

Google Ad and Content Network Privacy notice
Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's past visits to this website. Google's use of the DoubleClick cookie enables it and its partners to serve ads to my users based on their visits to my site and/or other sites on the Internet. Users may opt out of the use of the DoubleClick cookie for interest-based advertising by visiting https://www.aboutads.info/choices/ For European users visit https://www.youronlinechoices.eu

Google Analytics Privacy notice
this website uses Google Analytics to collect information about the use of this website. Google Analytics collects information from users such as age, gender, interests, demographics, how often they visit this website, what pages they visit, and what other websites they have used before coming to this website.

I have enabled Google Analytics advertising features such as remarketing with Google Analytics, Google Display Network Impression Reporting, and Google Analytics Demographics and Interest Reporting. Google Analytics collects only the IP address assigned to you on the date you visit this website, not your name or other identifying information. I do not combine the information collected using Google Analytics with PD. Although Google Analytics plants a permanent cookie on your web browser to identify you as a unique user the next time you visit this website, the cookie cannot be used by anyone but Google. Google also uses specific identifiers to help collect information about the use of this website.

You can prevent Google Analytics from using your information by opting out at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout

Google Remarketing
Why am I seeing ads by Google for products I've viewed?
this website uses a remarketing advertising service. My remarketing service is provided by Google and other companies that show my ads on websites across the Internet. With remarketing you may see ads for my products you have previously looked at. As an example, suppose you visit a website that sells computers, but you do not buy a computer on your first visit to that website. The website's owner might like to encourage you to revisit his/her site and buy a computer by showing you his/her ads again on other websites that you visit. I use remarketing for similar purposes. For this to happen, Google will read a cookie that is already in your browser, or they place a cookie in your browser when you visit my site or other sites using remarketing.
You can opt-out of Google's use of cookies and remarketing at https://support.google.com/ads/answer/2662922?hl=en or you can opt-out using the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out page at https://optout.networkadvertising.org/

Facebook Remarketing
Third parties, including Facebook, may use cookies, web beacons, and other storage technologies to collect or receive information from this website and elsewhere on the internet, and use that information to provide measurement services and target ads. With Facebook remarketing, you may see my ads on Facebook after you have visited my site. For this to happen, Facebook uses a Custom Audience Pixel that is activated when a visitor lands on a webpage and a unique “cookie” is placed in their browser. Facebook lookalike audience targeting allows me to show ads on Facebook to people who are similar to those who have already visited or made a purchase from this website. To opt-out of Facebook's collection and use of information for ad targeting visit https://www.facebook.com/help/568137493302217
