Cookies are small text files that are stored by your browser on your device to store certain information or image files, such as pixels. The next time you visit our website on the same device, the information stored in the cookies will be sent to our website (“First-Party Cookie”) or to another website to which the cookie belongs (“Third-Party Cookie”).

Thanks to the information stored and returned, the website can recognize that you have already visited and accessed it through the browser used on your device. We use this information to design and display the website optimally according to your preferences. Therefore, only the cookie itself is identified on your device. Outside the above scope, personal data will only be stored with your express consent or if it is absolutely necessary for the appropriate use of the services offered and made available to you.

This website uses the following types of cookies/tools, the scope and functions of which are explained below:

Type A: Technical measurement/analysis of recipients – to ensure that the requested service can be provided; includes basic analytical functions. (Consent is not necessary according to Directive 2002/58/EC concerning the processing of personal data and the protection of privacy in the electronic communications sector).

2.4.1 GOOGLE ANALYTICS

Purpose / Information:

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service from Google Ireland Ltd. (“Google”). The configuration of the Google Analytics tool has been changed by us in order to perform a purely measurement function, unless separate consent has been given for further advertising functions.

The Google Analytics tool uses a specific form of cookie that is stored on your computer to analyse your use of our website. The cookies used by the Google Analytics tool for measurement purposes are first-party cookies, which means that the values of these cookies for data subjects will be different for each customer (i.e. there is no single Google Analytics tool cookie identifier that is used across all sites using the Google Analytics tool). The information about your use of this website generated by the cookie is generally transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there.

Please note that the Google Analytics tool has been extended on this website with the code “gat._anonymizeIp();” in order to ensure anonymous recording of IP addresses (so-called IP masking). Due to the anonymisation of the IP address on this website, your IP address is truncated by Google within the EU and countries belonging to the European Economic Area. The full IP address is sent to a Google server in the USA and shortened there only in exceptional cases.

Google uses this information on our behalf to analyse your use of this website in order to compile reports on website activity and to provide additional services relating to website and internet usage. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics is not combined with other data from Google.

We use Google Analytics to analyse and regularly improve the use of our website. We can use the statistical data obtained to improve our offerings and make them more interesting for you. In addition, we obtain information about the functionality of our website (e.g. to detect problems with navigating the website).

By setting up the Google Analytics tool, we have ensured that Google receives this data as a processor and therefore cannot use it for its own purposes. The configuration of the “Google Analytics Advertising Features” tool is independent of the above and is described in the relevant section below, provided that it is also used on this website.

Cookies/tools: Type A. For more information, please see the “Cookies/Tools” section.

2.4.3 GOOGLE ADS (FORMERLY GOOGLE ADWORDS)

PURPOSE / INFORMATION:

Google Ads Conversion

We use Google Ads to advertise our attractive offers on external websites. We use advertising campaign data to determine the effectiveness of individual advertising activities. Our goal is to display ads that are relevant to you and to obtain a fair calculation of advertising costs.

The ads are delivered by Google via “ad servers”. We use ad server cookies to measure the effectiveness of advertising activities such as ad display or user clicks. If you visit our website through Google Ads, a cookie is saved on your device. This cookie usually stores the unique cookie identifier, the frequency of ad display in a particular location, the last display (relevant for conversion after viewing), and opt-out information indicating that you do not want to receive ads in the future.

These cookies allow Google to recognize your web browser. If you visit certain sites of an Ads client and the cookie stored on your device has not expired, Google and the client can recognize that you have clicked on an advertisement and have been redirected to the site in question. Each Ads customer is assigned a different cookie. It is not possible to track cookies on the websites of Ads service clients. We do not collect or process any personal data as part of the aforementioned advertising activities. We only receive statistical evaluations from Google, which help us determine which advertising measures are particularly effective. We cannot identify users’ identities from this information.

Due to the marketing tools used, your browser automatically establishes a direct connection to the Google server. We have no influence over the extent and further use of the data collected by Google as a result of the use of this tool. We provide the following information to the best of our knowledge: By implementing conversions within the Ads service, Google receives information that you have used a certain part of our website offer or have clicked on information relating to us. If you are registered with Google, Google can link your visit to your account. Even if you are not registered with Google or have not logged in, your IP address may be obtained and stored by ISPs.

Remarketing in Google Ads

We use the remarketing function within the Google Ads service. The remarketing function enables us to present users of our website with advertisements based on their interests on other sites in the Google advertising network (on Google’s search engine or on YouTube, so-called “Google Ads”, or on other sites). This is done by analysing user interactions on our website, e.g. what offers users were interested in, in order to be able to display targeted advertisements to users even after they have visited our website on other sites. For this purpose, Google saves cookies in the browsers of users who visit certain Google services or sites in the Google advertising network. This cookie is used to record the visits of these users. This number is used to uniquely identify the browser on a particular device.

Cookies/tools: Type C. For more information, see “Cookies/tools”.

Recipients:

The main service provider is Google Ireland Ltd, located at Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

It is possible that data may be transferred to third countries.

2.4.5 GOOGLE CAMPAIGN MANAGER

Purpose/Information:

This website uses an online marketing tool, the Google Campaign Manager, which utilizes cookies to display suitable ads to users, enhance campaign performance reports, and prevent repeated ad views. Google utilizes cookie identifiers to track ads displayed in browsers and prevent them from being shown more than once. Additionally, the Campaign Manager can gather conversion data on ad requests using cookie IDs. For instance, when a user views an ad served by the Campaign Manager and then proceeds to make a purchase on the advertiser’s website using the same browser.

When you visit our website, your browser establishes a direct connection to the Google server. We have no control over the extent and further use of data collected by Google using this tool. Therefore, we provide you with the following information to the best of our knowledge: By using the Campaign Manager tool, Google receives information that you accessed a specific section of our website or clicked on an ad from us. If you have a Google account, Google can associate your visit with your account. Even if you don’t have a Google account or haven’t logged in, your IP address may still be obtained and stored by internet service providers.

Additionally, cookies associated with Campaign Manager, such as DoubleClick or Floodlight, enable us to determine whether you perform a particular action on our website(s) after viewing one of our window/video ads on Google or other platforms via Campaign Manager or after clicking on such an ad (conversion tracking). The Campaign Manager employs this cookie to determine the content with which you interacted on our website(s) and then target customized ads to you.

2.4.8 SOCIAL PLUG-INS

Purpose / Information:

Our websites use social plugins (also known as “plugins”) from social networks such as Facebook, Twitter, and Pinterest. These plugins include the “Share” or “Share with friends” button from Facebook, whose website facebook.com is operated by Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, Hanover Reach, 5-7 Hanover Quay, Dublin 2, Ireland. The plugins are typically marked with the Facebook logo.

In addition to Facebook, we also use Twitter plugins (Provider: Twitter, Inc., 1355 Market St, Suite 900, San Francisco, CA 94103) and Pinterest plugins (Provider: Pinterest Europe Limited, 2nd Floor, Palmerston House, Fenian Street, Dublin 2, Ireland).

In accordance with data protection regulations, we have deliberately avoided using direct social network plugins on our websites. Instead, we use the “Shariff” solution. This allows us to decide when and if data is transmitted to the social network operator. When you visit our website, no data is automatically transmitted to social networks such as Facebook, Twitter, or Pinterest. Data is only transmitted to these networks when you voluntarily click on the corresponding social network button. In this case, your internet browser establishes a connection to the servers of the respective social network. By clicking the button, you agree to your browser establishing a link to the servers of the social network and transferring your usage data to the social network operator and vice versa. We have no control over the nature and extent of the data subsequently collected by the social networks.

The social network operators store the data they collect about you as user profiles and use them for advertising purposes, market research, and/or demand-based website design. This evaluation takes place, in particular, to present demand-based advertising and inform other users of the social network about your activities on our website (even if you are not logged in). You have the right to object to the creation of such profiles, and to exercise this right, you must contact the relevant plugin providers. Through the use of plugins, we offer you the opportunity to interact with social networks and other users, which allows us to improve our offerings and make them more interesting for you.

Purpose / Information:

When communicating and/or cooperating with us, for example, via email or the contact form on our website, a data exchange platform, as a consumer, researcher, business partner or customer, we store and process the data you provide (your email address, name, and telephone number, or personal data provided during a conversation) to respond to your questions, requests or for business correspondence.

Regarding cooperation with our suppliers, we have implemented an internal evaluation process that aims to improve the business relationship by developing an “action plan” in our legitimate interest. Usually, we only process company information, but it is possible to draw conclusions about you as a contact if communications with suppliers are examined for response time, reliability, and transparency.

As a consumer, if you contact us by phone, we may ask if the phone call can be recorded to ensure quality of service and for training purposes. If you agree to the recording, we process all the information you share with us during the call, including the content of the communication, possibly sensitive (health-related) data, your telephone number, and other personal data.

Regarding the processing of data arising during communication, we have a legitimate interest in processing the data in accordance with legal requirements, for internal verification purposes, or as per the relevant communication request.

For this purpose, we provide your name and contact details to the credit agencies.

Status of the data protection declaration: October 2022.

This privacy policy describes how we process information about you, including personal data and cookies.

  1. General information

This policy applies to the website operating under the URL: RattaNeo.com.

The operator of the website and the administrator of personal data is RattaNeo Sp. z o.o. Wojska Polskiego 8, 41-208 Sosnowiec NIP: PL6443554338

The operator’s email contact address is office@rattaneo.com.

The operator is the controller of your personal data with regard to the data provided voluntarily on the website.

The website uses your personal data for the following purposes:

  • Running the newsletter
  • Running the comment system
  • Running an online forum
  • Conducting online chat
  • Handling inquiries via the form
  • Preparation, packaging, dispatch of goods
  • Fulfillment of ordered services
  • Debt collection
  • Presentation of offers or information

The service performs the functions of obtaining information about users and their behavior in the following ways:

  • Through the voluntary data entered in the forms, which are entered into the operator’s systems.
  • Through the storage of cookies (so-called “cookies”) on the end devices.

  1. Selected data protection methods used by the operator

The login and entry points for personal data are protected in the transmission layer (SSL certificate). This ensures that personal and login data entered on the website is encrypted on the user’s computer and can only be read on the target server.

The personal data stored in the database are encrypted in such a way that only those holding the operator key can read them. This protects the data in case the database is stolen from the server.

User passwords are stored in hashed form. The hashing function works in a one-way fashion – it is not possible to reverse it, which is the current modern standard for storing user passwords.

The operator periodically changes its administrative passwords.

In order to protect the data, the operator regularly makes security backups.

An important element of data protection is the regular updating of all software used by the operator to process personal data, which in particular means regular updates of software components.

  1. Hosting

The website is hosted (technically maintained) on the servers of the operator: OVH.

  1. Your Rights and Additional Information on the Use of Your Data

  • Law firms and debt collectors
  • Banks
  • Payment operators
  • Public authorities
  • Comment system operators
  • Online chat solution providers
  • Authorized employees and associates who use the data to fulfill the purpose of the website
  • Companies that provide marketing services to the Administrator

Your personal data will be processed by the Administrator for no longer than it is necessary to perform the related activities defined by separate regulations (e.g., on accounting). With regard to marketing data, data will not be processed for longer than 3 years.

You have the right to request from the Controller:

  • Access to personal data concerning you
  • Rectification of your personal data
  • Erasure of your personal data
  • Restriction of processing of your personal data
  • Data portability

You have the right to object, within the scope of the processing indicated in 3.3 c), to the processing of your personal data for the purpose of carrying out the legitimate interests pursued by the Administrator, including profiling, with the right to object not being exercisable if there are valid legitimate grounds for the processing overriding your interests, rights, and freedoms, in particular, the establishment, assertion, or defense of claims.

You may complain about the Administrator’s actions to the President of the Office for Personal Data Protection, 2 Stawki Street, 00-193 Warsaw.

The provision of personal data is voluntary but necessary to operate the Service.

Automated decision-making, including profiling for the purpose of providing services under the contract concluded and for the purpose of direct marketing by the Administrator, may be undertaken concerning you.

7 Relevant Marketing Techniques

The operator uses statistical analysis of website traffic via Google Analytics (Google Inc., based in the USA). The operator only transmits anonymized information and not personal data to the service operator. The service uses cookies on the user’s terminal device. If the user wants to view and edit the information resulting from the cookies collected by the Google advertising network, they can use the tool: https://www.google.com/ads/preferences/.

The operator uses remarketing techniques to match advertising messages to the user’s behavior on the website. Although this may create the impression that the user’s personal data is being tracked, in practice, no personal data is transferred from the operator to the advertising operators. The use of cookies is a technological prerequisite for such activities.

The operator uses the Facebook pixel. This technology informs Facebook (Facebook Inc., USA) that a registered person is using the website, but no additional personal data is transmitted to Facebook. The service relies on the use of cookies on the user’s terminal device.

The operator uses a solution to study user behavior by creating heat maps and recording behavior on the website. Before sending the information to the service operator, it is anonymized so that the operator does not know which individual it relates to. Personal data such as passwords and other sensitive information are not recorded.

The operator uses a solution that automates the operation of the website regarding users. For example, the operator may send an email to a user who visited a particular subpage, provided that the user has consented to receive commercial correspondence from the operator.
