How We Use Remarketing to Advertise

Information We Collect and How We Use It

This website uses Google Ads’ free conversion tracking features on certain pages. If you contact us online, the destination page will have code on it that will help us understand the path you took to arrive on that page.

 

Behavioural Remarketing

Arctic Spas® uses remarketing services to advertise on third-party websites to you after you visited certain pages on our website. We and our third-party vendors use cookies to inform, optimize and serve ads based on your past visits to our Service.

 

How Google and Third-Party Vendors Show Your Ads Online

Interest-Base Advertising

These cookies allow third parties to identify what you find popular, allowing a more personalized and relevant selection of advertisements to be displayed when you browse the internet. They normally won’t just be from us, but build an overall, but anonymous, picture of an individual’s preferences based on how they have browsed the internet, in order to deliver more relevant advertising. You may see interest-based advertising on third-party websites which use information collected about your browsing activity on this site.

 

How Google and Third-Party Vendors Use Cookies to Show Your Ads Online

Google Dynamic Remarketing

Our website uses Google Remarketing, as service of Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94042, USA (“Google”). This service uses cookies and similar technologies to display personalized advertising messages on websites that work with Google. Cookes and similar technology are also used to perform the analysis of website usage as a basis for the creation of interest-based advertisements. The data arising in this context can be transmitted by Google to a server in the USA for evaluation and stored there. In the event that personal data is transferred to the USA, Google has submitted to the EU-US Privacy Shield.

If you use a Google Account, depending on the setting in your Google Account, Google may link your Google web and App browsing history to your Google Account and use information from your Google Account to personalize ads. If you don’t want this association with your Google account, you’ll need to log out of Google before you access our contact pages.

As described above, you can configure your browser to reject cookies, or you can prevent the collection of data generated by the cookies and related to your use of this website and the processing of this data by Google by accessing the Google Advertising Settings and setting the personalization buttons to “off”.

How Users Can Opt-Out of Google’s Cookies

DoubleClick

Due to the sensitive nature of this information, we will only take it from you if you have given us your explicit consent and it is necessary for us to do so. We will also inform you of what we will do with this information and who we will share it with.
