Personalisation and Automated Decision Making
If you visit our Website, you may notice personalised banner adverts for our Website whilst browsing websites of other companies. Any banner advertisements you see will relate to your browsing activity on our website from your computer or other devices.
These advertisements are provided by us via external market leading specialist providers using techniques such as pixels, web beacons, ad tags, mobile identifiers and ‘cookies’ placed on your computer or other devices. To stop seeing our advertisements, you can remove or disable cookies at any time. Please see our Cookie Policy for further information on how it can be achieved.
We may analyse your browsing and purchasing activity online and your responses to marketing communications. The results of this analysis, together with other demographic data, allow us to decide what marketing communications are suitable for you and to ensure that we contact you with information on products, services, events and offers that are tailored and relevant to you. To do so, we use software and other technology for automated decision making.
This allows us to provide more personalised services and experiences, we may review personal data held by external social media platform providers about you, such as the personal data available on social media platforms such as Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, Twitter and Facebook.
We aim to update you about products and services which are of interest and relevance to you as an individual. To help us do this, we process personal data by profiling and segmenting, identifying what our customers like and ensuring messages we send them are relevant based on their demographics, interests, purchase behaviour, online web browsing activity and engagement with previous communications. We may also use your personal data to exclude you from communications which we feel are irrelevant to you.
Another example of how we may tailor our communications with you is that we may group individuals with similar interests using this data so we can send them product news or promotional offers that are relevant to that shared interest.
If you wish to opt out of some automated processing, including profiling, please contact us by email sales@muchvjewellery.com, or by post at: Muchv Consent, 18 St Owen Street Hereford HR1 2PL United Kingdom
