Use of social plugins

Our website uses so-called social plugins from third party providers, e.g. Facebook, Twitter or Google+. The plugins are marked with the provider's logo and can be like buttons or a Google+ button or Twitter button, for example. When you access a website that contains such a plugin, your browser establishes a direct connection to the provider's computers. The content of the plugin is transmitted directly from the offering site to your browser and integrated into the website. By integrating the plugins, the provider receives the information that you have accessed our website. If you are registered and logged in with the provider at the same time, the provider can assign the visit to your profile. If you interact with the plugins (e.g. click on the Like button or make a comment), the corresponding information is transmitted directly from your browser to the provider and stored there.

This data can be assigned to your profile, provided you log in to the provider at a later point in time. The purpose and scope of the data collection and the further processing of your data by the provider as well as your relevant rights and setting options for the protection of your privacy can be found in the data protection information of the providers.

Use of customer master data

If you have placed orders with us via an active customer account, we process these specific data records to enrich the personalised advertising. We only use the data set for the design of dynamic content and the creation of target group segments. For example, to display brand-specific special offers or interest-driven advertising (banner, website or newsletter). In addition, we create impersonal target group segments for all customer data. This usually includes an evaluation of age groups, or the analysis of specific purchasing behaviour. At no time will personal data be enriched or used outside your customer account. Our IT system landscape protects the customer account several times against external access. You can also exclude your own data record from these evaluations at any time. To do so, please contact us at info@reftools.ch
