COOKIE STATEMENT

When you visit a Padagis website, including related sites and those belonging to our affiliates (collectively, the “Site”), we may store or retrieve information on your browser, mostly in the form of cookies. This information might be about you, your preferences or your device and is mostly used to make the Site work as you expect it to. The information does not usually directly identify you, but it can give you a more personalized web experience. Because we respect your right to privacy, you can choose not to allow some types of cookies. However, blocking certain types of cookies may impact your experience of the Site.

A cookie is a small piece of data (text file) that a website – when visited by a user – asks your browser to store on your device in order to remember information about you, such as your language preference or login information. Those cookies are set by us and called first party cookies. We also use third party cookies – which are cookies from a domain different than the domain of the website you are visiting – for our advertising and marketing efforts.

More specifically, we use cookies and other tracking technologies for the following purposes:

Assisting you in navigation
Assisting you in service or website registration, login, and your ability to provide feedback
Analyzing your use of our websites, products, services or applications
Assisting you with our promotional and marketing efforts (including behavioral advertising)

Below is a description of the types of cookies we use on our Site. Our Site is scanned with a cookie scanning tool to maintain accurate cookie lists. You can opt-out of each cookie category (except strictly necessary cookies) by clicking on the “cookie settings” button within the Site.

Cookie Categories

Strictly Necessary Cookies. These cookies are necessary for the Site to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually only set in response to actions made by you which amount to a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in or filling in forms. You can set your browser to block or alert you about these cookies, but some parts of the Site will then not work. These cookies do not store any personally identifiable information.
Performance Cookies. These cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our Site.

If you do not allow these cookies we will not know when you have visited our Site and will not be able to monitor its performance.
Functional Cookies. These cookies enable the Site to provide enhanced functionality and personalization. They may be set by us or by third party providers whose services we have added to our pages. If you do not allow these cookies, then some or all of these services may not function properly.
Targeting Cookies. These cookies may be set through our Site by our advertising partners. Some of our partners may use cookies or web beacons (a single-pixel image file) to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant advertisements on other websites. They do not store directly personal information but are based on uniquely identifying your browser and internet device. If you do not allow these cookies, you will experience less targeted advertising.
Social Media Cookies. These cookies are set by a range of social media services that we have added to the Site to enable you to share our content with your friends and networks.

In addition to our own cookies, we collaborate with various third-party service providers who also use cookies to help us optimize our Site and understand more about the visitors to our Site.

Cookies are not the only way to track visitors to a website. We may use similar technologies from time to time, like web beacons (sometimes called “tracking pixels” or “clear gifs”). These are tiny graphics files that contain a unique identifier that enable us to recognize when someone has visited our Site. These technologies often depend on cookies to function properly, and so disabling cookies may impair their functioning. If you sign up to receive our e-mails, we will also use cookies in conjunction with these emails.

OUR LEGAL BASES FOR COLLECTING PERSONAL INFORMATION

Padagis will generally process your personal information on one of the following legal bases:

Your consent: where you have expressed your approval of Padagis’ processing of your personal information. Where we rely on your consent, you have the right to withdraw it anytime in the manner indicated in this Notice and/or on the Site.
Contractual relationship between you and Padagis: in this instance, the processing of your personal information is necessary to provide the Site, communicate with you, or to provide you the products or services you have requested; this means that if you do not wish for Padagis to process your personal information in that context, Padagis may not be able to provide the products or services you requested.
Legal obligations: we may process your personal information, including health data and other sensitive information, to comply with our legal obligations, including reporting to a regulatory authority. For instance, to comply with health and safety regulations Padagis must monitor any adverse effects of its products, which generally involves the collection and retention of personal information.
Legitimate interest: where the processing is necessary for our legitimate interests or the legitimate interests of a third party. This includes sending you marketing communications, for compliance, fraud prevention, and safety purposes, or for sharing your personal information as described in this Notice. We consider and balance the potential impact on your rights before we process your personal information for our legitimate interests. We do not use your personal information for activities where our interests are overridden by the impact on you (unless we have your consent or are otherwise required or permitted to by law).
