The web beacon is deleted when you delete the marketing email. You can prevent the use of web beacons in our marketing emails by adjusting the settings of your email program so that HTML is not displayed in messages.

Cookies are used to make your visit to our Website easier, more enjoyable, and more meaningful. We use cookies for various purposes that are necessary for the desired use of the website, i.e., "technically necessary." For example, we use cookies to identify you as a registered user after logging in, so you don't have to log in again when navigating to different subpages. The provision of ordering functions also relies on the use of cookies. Furthermore, cookies perform other technical functions necessary for the operation of the Website, such as load balancing, which distributes the workload of the site across various web servers to relieve the servers. Finally, we use cookies in the design and programming of our Website, for example, to enable the uploading of scripts or codes.

Most internet browsers accept cookies automatically. However, when accessing our Website, we ask for your consent to the use of non-essential cookies, especially for the use of cookies from third parties for marketing purposes. You can adjust your preferences for cookies by using the corresponding buttons in the cookie banner. Details regarding the services and data processing associated with each cookie can be found within the cookie banner and in the following sections of this Data Privacy Policy.

You may also be able to configure your browser to prevent cookies from being stored on your computer or receive a notification whenever a new cookie is being sent. On the following pages, you will find instructions on how to configure cookie settings for selected browsers.

Disabling cookies may prevent you from using all the features of our Website.

For the purpose of customising and continuously optimising our Website, our Website contains the web analytics services listed below. In this context, pseudonymised usage profiles are created, and cookies are used. The information generated by the cookie regarding your use of our Website is usually transmitted to a server of the service provider, where it is stored and processed, together with the log file data. This may also result in a transfer to servers abroad, e.g., the USA (for information on the absence of an adequate level of data protection and the proposed safeguards, see the section "Disclosure and Cross-Border Transfer").

The providers, on our behalf, will use this information or aggregated data to evaluate the use of the Website, in particular to compile Website activity reports and provide further services related to Website usage and internet usage for the purposes of market research and the customisation of the Website.

We use the web analytics service Google Analytics provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland, or Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA ("Google").

IP addresses are not logged or stored in Google Analytics. For accesses originating from the EU, IP address data is only used to derive location data and is immediately deleted thereafter. When collecting measurement data in Google Analytics, all IP searches take place on EU-based servers before the traffic is forwarded to Analytics servers for processing. Google Analytics utilises regional data centres. When connecting to the nearest available Google data centre in Google Analytics, the measurement data is sent to Analytics via an encrypted HTTPS connection. In these centres, the data is further encrypted before being forwarded to Analytics' processing servers and made available on the platform. The most suitable local data centre is determined based on the IP addresses. This may also result in a transfer of data to servers abroad, e.g., the USA (for information on the absence of an adequate level of data protection and the proposed safeguards, see the section "Disclosure and Cross-Border Transfer").

We also use the technical extension called "Google Signals", which enables cross-device tracking. This makes it possible to associate a single website visitor with different devices. However, this only happens if the visitor is logged into a Google service during the Website visits and has activated the "personalised advertising" option in their Google account settings. Even in such cases, we do not have access to any personal data or user profiles; they remain anonymous to us. If you do not wish to use "Google Signals," you can deactivate the "personalised advertising" option in your Google account settings.

These advertisements may be displayed to you on various channels, including our Website or app (as part of on- and in-app marketing), as well as advertising placements provided through the online advertising networks we use, such as Google.

A web service of the company Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, 4 Dublin, Ireland (hereinafter: Gstatic) is reloaded on our Website. We use this data to ensure the full functionality of our Website. In this context, your browser may transmit personal data to Gstatic. The server domains of the CDNs used are s.w.org and twemoji.maxcdn.com. They are only used for a fast and secure transmission of the files. The personal data of the users will be deleted after transmission. The data is deleted as soon as the purpose of its collection has been fulfilled. For more information on the handling of the transferred data, please refer to Gstatic's privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy.

Your data may be disclosed to third parties to the extent necessary for the execution of orders and the provision of services to you. For these data processing activities, the third-party service providers are considered data controllers under the data protection laws, and not us. It is the responsibility of these third-party service providers to inform you about their own data processing, which may extend beyond the mere sharing of data for the provision of services, and to comply with data protection laws.

Furthermore, your data may be disclosed, especially to authorities, legal advisors, or debt collection agencies, if we are legally obliged to do so or if it is necessary to protect our rights, in particular to enforce claims arising from our relationship with you. Data may also be disclosed if another company intends to acquire our company or parts thereof, and such disclosure is necessary to conduct a due diligence or to complete the transaction.

We have the right to transfer your personal data to third parties located abroad if it is necessary to carry out the data processing described in this Data Privacy Policy. When making such transfers, we will ensure compliance with the applicable legal requirements for disclosing personal data to third parties. The countries to which data is transmitted include those that, according to the decision of the Federal Council, have an adequate level of data protection (such as the member states of the EEA), as well as those countries (such as the USA) whose level of data protection is not considered adequate (see Annex 1 of the Data Protection Ordinance). If the country in question does not provide an adequate level of data protection, we ensure, unless otherwise specified, that your data is adequately protected by these companies by means of appropriate safeguards. These safeguards may be provided for by standard contractual clauses, which can be found on the websites of the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner. If you have any questions regarding the implemented measures, please send us an e-mail to the following address: privacy_ch@bat.com.

Some of the third-party service providers mentioned in this Data Privacy Policy are based in the USA. For the sake of completeness, we would like to inform users residing or based in Switzerland or the EU that certain third-party service providers mentioned in this Data Privacy Policy are located in the USA. It is important to note that there are surveillance measures by US authorities in place that generally allow for the storage of all personal data of individuals whose data has been transmitted from Switzerland or the EU to the United States. This occurs without differentiation, limitation, or exception based on the purpose for which the data is being collected and without an objective criterion that would restrict US authorities' access to the data and its subsequent use to specific, strictly limited purposes that can justify the interference associated with accessing and using the data. Furthermore, we would like to point out that affected individuals from Switzerland or the EU do not have legal remedies or effective judicial protection against general access rights of US authorities, which would allow them to access the data concerning them and to rectify or delete it. We explicitly highlight this legal and factual situation to enable you to make an informed decision regarding your consent to the use of your data.

For users residing in Switzerland or a member state of the EU, we also want to inform you that, from the perspective of the European Union and Switzerland, the United States does not provide an adequate level of data protection, among other reasons, as explained in this paragraph. In cases where we have mentioned in this Data Privacy Policy that data recipients (such as Google) are located in the United States, it will be ensured through contractual arrangements with these companies and, if necessary, additional appropriate safeguards, that your data is adequately protected at our third-party service providers at our third-party service providers.
