Cookies

A cook­ie is a small piece of data sent from a web­site or applic­a­tion and stored on your com­puter or device by your web browser. The file is added once you agree to store cook­ies on your com­puter or device, and the cook­ie helps ana­lyze web traffic or lets you know when you vis­it a par­tic­u­lar site. Cook­ies allow sites to respond to you as an indi­vidu­al. The Web­site can also tail­or its oper­a­tions to your needs, likes, and dis­likes by gath­er­ing and remem­ber­ing inform­a­tion about your preferences.

This Web­site col­lects cook­ies and may use cook­ies for reas­ons includ­ing, but not lim­ited to:

  • Ana­lyze our web traffic using an ana­lyt­ics package
  • Identi­fy if you are signed in to the Website
  • Test con­tent on the Website
  • Store inform­a­tion about your preferences
  • Recog­nize when you return to the Website

Over­all, cook­ies help us provide you with a bet­ter Web­site, by enabling us to mon­it­or which pages you find use­ful and which you do not. A cook­ie in no way gives us access to your com­puter or any inform­a­tion about you, oth­er than the data you choose to share with us.

You can accept or decline cook­ies. Most web browsers auto­mat­ic­ally accept cook­ies, but you can modi­fy your browser set­ting to decline cook­ies if you prefer. This set­ting may pre­vent you from tak­ing full advant­age of the Website.

Children’s privacy

This Web­site is inten­ded for use by a gen­er­al audi­ence and does not offer ser­vices to chil­dren. Should a child whom we know to be under 18 send per­son­al inform­a­tion to us, we will use that inform­a­tion only to respond to that child to inform him or her that they can­not use this Website.

Analytics programs

This Web­site uses Google Ana­lyt­ics to col­lect inform­a­tion about you and your beha­vi­ors. If you would like to opt out of Google Ana­lyt­ics, please vis­it https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout/.

Information retention

We retain all of the inform­a­tion that we col­lect for a peri­od of 1 year.

Direct marketing

We use the inform­a­tion that we col­lect about you for dir­ect mar­ket­ing pur­poses. Dir­ect mar­ket­ing is the act of selling products or ser­vices dir­ectly to con­sumers rather than through retail­ers. Res­id­ents of Aus­tralia and/​or the European Uni­on and/​or the European Eco­nom­ic Area and the United King­dom – You may, at any time, request that we cease to use your inform­a­tion for dir­ect mar­ket­ing pur­poses by email­ing us at privacypolicy@www.smoltek.com.

Profiling

We use the inform­a­tion that we col­lect about you for pro­fil­ing. Pro­fil­ing is any form of auto­mated pro­cessing of per­son­al inform­a­tion con­sist­ing of the use of per­son­al inform­a­tion to eval­u­ate cer­tain per­son­al aspects relat­ing to a per­son, in par­tic­u­lar to ana­lyze or pre­dict aspects con­cern­ing that person’s per­form­ance at work, eco­nom­ic situ­ation, health, per­son­al pref­er­ences, interests, reli­ab­il­ity, beha­vi­or, loc­a­tion or move­ments. We use the logic below to con­duct audi­ence segmentation.
