The Website uses “cookies” to improve and personalize the user experience. A cookie is a small text file stored on the User’s device to help PAB identify the User and make the visit to the Website more user-friendly. Cookies provide PAB with information about the Website’s usage, which helps PAB improve the site. The information stored in these cookies can be sent back to PAB’s servers or those of relevant third parties PAB collaborates with.
The User can prevent the use of cookies. PAB requests the User’s consent for the use of cookies upon each visit to the Website, and by using the Website, the User gives this consent. If the User blocks cookies, it may negatively impact the user experience on the Website.
The Website may use different types of cookies:
- Permanent cookies: These are set when the User logs in with an account. The next time the User visits the Website from the same device, the permanent cookie allows the User to be recognized as an existing user, so the User does not need to log in again.
- Session cookies: A session cookie is used to identify a specific visit to the Website. Session cookies expire after a short period or when the User closes the browser used to access the Website.
- Technical or functional cookies: These cookies ensure that certain parts of the Website work correctly and remember user preferences. By placing functional cookies, PAB ensures that the User can navigate the Website more easily. For example, these cookies ensure that the User does not need to re-enter the same information during each visit, and they enable the storage of items in the shopping cart. These cookies may be placed without the User’s consent.
- Analytical cookies: Since statistics are collected anonymously, no consent is required for the placement of analytical cookies.
- Advertising cookies: These cookies are used on the Website to personalize online advertisements for the User and to allow PAB (and third parties PAB works with) to gain insights into campaign results. This is done based on a profile created from click and browsing behavior on and outside the Website. A unique cookie ID is assigned to the User, ensuring that they do not see the same advertisement multiple times.
- Marketing-tracking cookies: These cookies or other forms of local storage are used to create user profiles for displaying ads or to track the User across the Website or other websites for similar marketing purposes. Since these cookies are considered tracking cookies, PAB requests the User’s consent before placing them.
PAB uses cookies to determine when the User is logged in, allowing the appropriate information to be displayed and providing the User with a personalized experience. Additionally, cookies support or enable security features used by PAB, and help PAB detect malicious activity. PAB also uses cookies to know the User’s preferred language, communication preferences, and to assist with form filling on the Website. They also provide functionality and customized content for the User.
Lastly, PAB uses cookies to collect information about how the Website and any plugins perform globally, and to understand, improve, and investigate products, features, and services, even when the User accesses the Website from other websites, applications, or devices, such as a device not owned by the User or a mobile device (smartphone or tablet).
The Website includes buttons for social media platforms like Facebook and Instagram to promote or share web pages (e.g., “like”, “pin”, or “tweet”) on social networks such as Facebook and Instagram. These buttons work by embedding small pieces of code from these platforms. Through this code, cookies are placed. Social media buttons may also store and process certain data, allowing personalized ads to be shown to the User. It is recommended that the User reads the most current privacy statements from these parties to know what they do with personal data collected via these cookies. The information collected is anonymized as much as possible.
If the User tags PAB, the Website, or PAB’s products or features on social media, the User is assumed to consent to the tagging and/or sharing of their post by PAB on the Website or PAB’s social media profiles.
