What is a cookie?
When you fill in the date of birth form and access the Website, it will use so-called “cookies”. Cookies are small text files containing small amounts of information that are downloaded and can be stored on a user’s device, such as your computer (or other internet-connected device such as a smartphone or tablet). At Capital Group Żywiec Sp. z o.o., we can use similar techniques, such as pixels, web beacons or device fingerprint identification. For the sake of consistency, all of the techniques listed together will be referred to as “cookies”.

This Cookie Policy provides information about the cookies we use and why we do so.

Cookies used on the website
GŻ uses several different types of cookies. Some of these are session cookies, which are temporary and allow us to associate your activities during your browser session. Session-related cookies are deleted when the browser is closed. Other cookies are persistent and remain on your device for the duration specified in the respective cookie. The website uses cookies for the following purposes:

  • Required cookies
    The required cookies are necessary in order to facilitate the navigation of the Website. They increase the user-friendliness of the Website for visitors. These cookies ensure that the date of birth form is only filled in once. These cookies also help to secure the Website and support its basic functionality.
  • Performance cookies
    Performance cookies help us to understand our visitors’ behaviour and use of the Website in aggregate. For example, we may use these cookies to gain insight into how visitors use our Website. This means that we can determine what works and what doesn’t, we can continually improve the Webite and measure how effective our advertising and communications are.

    We use Google Analytics cookies to gain an overall view of visitor habits and visitor numbers, and to improve the overall experience of using our Website. You can refuse to consent to the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings in your browser as described above. Furthermore, you can prevent the collection and use of data by Google (cookies and IP address) by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available at this address. You can deactivate the use of Google Analytics via the link to deactivate Google Analytics. This link creates an opt-out cookie that prevents further processing of your data. More information about Google Analytics cookies can be found on the Google help pages, the Google Privacy Policy. and on the Google Analytics help pages.

  • Communication cookies
    The website allows cookies of external social networks (e.g. Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn). This allows the content of the Website to be made available on these networks. These external parties may use cookies for their own purposes. GŻ has no influence on how social media networks use your data. For further information on cookie settings by social media networks, please refer to their privacy and cookie policies.
  • Advertising cookies
    Advertising cookies remember your product and website preferences and generally the fact that you have visited the Website. We aim to present you with advertisements that are relevant to you and consistent with your interests on other online platforms when available based on your visits and browsing behaviour on our Website and other third party websites. Based on the aforementioned interests, we develop a segmented profile and then tailor the content and advertising on our Website to each customer group.

Third parties who place cookies through our Website may also attempt to ascertain your interests in this way, and this information may also be used to present you with content and advertising that seems more likely to be of interest to you on other, non-GŻ sites. In this case, information about your current visits to the Website may be linked to information from previous visits to websites other than ours.

These advertising cookies are also used to limit the number of times a particular advertisement is displayed and to help measure the effectiveness of advertisements.

Even if the advertising cookies in question are not used, we would like to inform you that you will receive advertisements on our Website. However, they will not be tailored to your interests. These advertisements may, for example, be modified in accordance with the content of the Website. This type of online advertising with specific content can be compared to advertising on television. If, for example, you are watching a cooking programme on TV, there are often adverts for cooking-related products during the commercial breaks in that programme.

Controlling your cookie settings
Once you have given us permission to use cookies, we store them on your computer or device to remember the data for your next visit. If at any time you wish to withdraw your consent to cookies, please delete our cookies using your browser settings. This must be done separately in each browser you use. Please be aware that some of our services will not function if your browser does not accept cookies. However, you can allow cookies from specific websites by setting them as “trusted websites” in your web browser. The following links may help you to manage your cookie settings, or you can use the “Help” option in your browser to find out further details.

To specifically block Google Analytics cookies, you can install the “Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on” offered by Google.

GŻ may also offer you the option to set your cookie preferences. By clicking on “Cookies” you can select the types of cookies to be used by our Website. You can change your preferences at any time. In the cookie settings you will also find a list of all cookies in each category (required, analytics, social media, targeted advertising).
