Use of cookies

Cookies allow us to, among other things, remember your preferences and recognise you on future visits. This is achieved by storing certain information on your device.

What is a cookie?

A cookie is a file that is downloaded to a user’s device with the aim of storing data that can be updated and recovered by the entity responsible for its installation.

When you access the Website and give your consent for them to be installed, small files containing information are installed on your device (computer, tablet, mobile phone, etc.). These files (which are the cookies) form part of the technology necessary to make the Website work properly and are not inherently harmful.

Cookies are installed and stored on your device and allow the tracking of your Internet activity. You can completely disable cookies in your browser settings. You can disable cookies, but the Website or some of its sections might not work correctly.

What type of cookies do we use?

Depending on the entity that manages them, cookies can be:

  • First-party cookies: these are cookies that are sent to the user’s device from a computer or domain managed by the web publisher itself and from which the service requested by the user is provided.
  • Third-party cookies: these cookies are sent to the user’s device from a computer or domain that is not managed by the web publisher, but by another entity that processes the data obtained from cookies.

The Website uses both first-party and third-party cookies.

Cookies can also be categorised according to the duration they are enabled:

  • Session cookies: a type of cookie designed to collect and store data while the user browses a webpage. They are often used to store information that is only useful to offer a service requested by the user just once (e.g. a list of products purchased).

Persistent cookies: a type of cookie in which data remains stored on the device and can be accessed and processed during a period set by the organisation responsible for the cookies, which could be from a few minutes to years.

The Website uses both our persistent and session cookies.

TikTok Pixel

1. a) Purpose of data processing

We use the offer of TikTok Pixel to draw attention to our attractive offers with the help of advertising media on external websites (so-called conversion tracking). This offer (Advertiser Tool) is provided by TikTok Technology Limited, 10 Earlsfort Terrace, Dublin, D02 T380, Ireland, and TikTok Information Technologies UK Limited, WeWork, 125 Kingsway, London, WC2B 6NH, United Kingdom (both are hereinafter jointly referred to as "TikTok"). When consent is given to the use of personalisation cookies, the "TikTok pixel" provided by and for which TikTok is responsible is used or activated on our websites and cookies are stored on the user's terminal device. With the help of the TikTok pixel, it is possible for TikTok to determine the visitors to the website as a target group for the display of advertisements. 

Accordingly, we use the TikTok pixel to display TikTok ads placed by us only to those TikTok users who have also shown an interest in our online offering or who have certain characteristics that we transmit to TikTok. The TikTok pixel also enables us to statistically analyse the TikTok ads placed. In principle, the data of the data subject are processed within the EU or the EEA. For this purpose, a corresponding data protection agreement has been concluded with TikTok. If personal data is transferred to countries outside the EU or EEA, this is done within the framework of the Commission's model contracts for the transfer of personal data to third countries (so-called "standard contractual clauses"). TikTok's privacy policy can be found here: https://www.tiktok.com/legal/new-privacy-policy.

1. b) Duration of storage

Data will be retained for as long as necessary to provide the service and for other purposes. Data will also be retained to the extent necessary to fulfil contractual and legal obligations.

1. c) Legal basis

The storage of the data is based on the consent of the data subject pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO

1. d) Advanced matching 

Advanced Matching is available via TikTok Business Tools to enable businesses to send privacy-safe customer information to better match website and app events with ads on TikTok. As per standard industry practice, customer emails and phone numbers are hashed in a privacy-safe way so that TikTok is not able to identify customers who are not TikTok users. 

- The identity information passed through the TikTok pixel will be hashed with SHA256 before reaching TikTok servers for matching. 

- TikTok is ISO 27001 certified in the US and UK. 

- TikTok complies with App Tracking Transparency (ATT) where applicable.

1. e) Possibility of objection and elimination

You can object to the collection by the TikTok pixel and use of your data for the display of TikTok ads. An opt-out option can be found in our cookie declaration (https://www.orderbird.com/en/cookies-policy). You can also block the use of cookies; please refer to the instructions for your browser software for the relevant steps.
