This data can be collected in the system logs of the website, through so-called Cookies. Cookies are small text information in the form of text files, sent by the server and saved on the side of the person visiting the website (e.g. on the hard drive of a computer, laptop, or on the memory card of a smartphone).  

 

6.2. By saving Cookies on the device of the website user (computer, smartphone, tablet, etc.), the GKI Group company can, among other things:

 

a. Adjust the functioning of the website to your needs.

f. Continuously improve the website with its users in mind.

6.3. Cookies do not contain data identifying the user, and it is not possible to determine anyone's identity based on them. These files are not harmful to the user's end device in any way and do not change its settings or the settings of the software installed on it. The content of these files can only be read by the server that created them.  

 

6.4. When the user uses our website, GKI uses three types of cookies: session cookies, permanent cookies and marketing cookies. Session cookies are temporary files that are stored in the user's device memory until the user logs out of the website, leaves the website or closes the browser. Permanent files are stored in the user's device memory for the time specified in the parameters of these files or until the user deletes them. Marketing files are "cookies" saved by other external scripts used on our website. They are used by us mainly for remarketing purposes (see items 6.11.-6.14 below).  

 

6.5. By default, most web browsers available on the market accept the storage of Cookies by default. The User can independently and at any time change the settings for Cookies, specifying the conditions for their storage and access by Cookies to the User's device. The User can change the settings referred to in the previous sentence using the web browser settings or by configuring the service. These settings can be changed in particular in such a way as to block the automatic handling of Cookies in the web browser settings or to inform each time Cookies are placed on the User's device.

6.9. PP also processes anonymized operational data related to the use of its website (so-called logs – IP address, domain) to generate statistics helpful in website administration. From the moment a user connects to the website, information about the number (including IP) and type of the user's end device used to connect to the website appears in the website's system logs. This data is aggregated and anonymous, meaning it does not contain any identifying features of website visitors. Logs are not disclosed to third parties.

6.10. PP may use Google Analytics, which collects anonymous information about the PP websites you visit using cookies. Detailed information regarding the Google Analytics privacy policy can be found at: http://www.google.com/intl/pl/analytics/privacyoverview.html.

These codes are used to create remarketing lists to tailor personalized ads to users who have visited our website, and then display them on the Google AdWords advertising network, the Google search engine, and on the websites of entities participating in the Google content network.

6.12. Our website, using the "similar audiences" feature, operates within the Google AdWords system and analyzes browsing activity on websites within the display network over the last thirty days. This information is then subjected to contextual targeting to define a remarketing audience profile. Google AdWords uses this data to identify a group of new users who share similar browsing patterns to those on the PP remarketing list. This list is never based on browsing history on sensitive topics, such as those related to race, religion, sexual orientation, or health.
6.13. By using remarketing tools and the "similar audiences" feature, our website does not collect your personal data through cookies, only your browsing history, and therefore, you remain anonymous.

6.14. You have the option to opt out of the collection of remarketing codes and display advertiser codes through Google AdWords and Google Analytics, as well as the display of custom ads on the Google Display Network, as described in Section 6.5 above.

All of these social media applications may collect and use data regarding user activity on the PP website. Any personal data you provide through such social media applications may be collected and used by other users of these social media applications, and interactions conducted through them are subject to the privacy policies of the companies providing the applications. We have no influence on and take no responsibility for the above companies and their use of user data.
