Newsletter tracking with Mailchimp form

We would like to point out that we evaluate your user behaviour when sending the newsletter. We use the analysis tool of Mailchimp, a registered trademark of The Rocket Science Group, LLC, 675 Ponce de Leon Ave NE, Atlanta, GA 30308 USA. For this analysis, the e-mails sent contain so-called “web beacons” or “tracking pixels”, which represent single-pixel image files stored on our website. We link the above access data and the web beacons to your e-mail address and an individual ID for the evaluations.  

You may object to this tracking at any time by clicking on the separate link provided in each e-mail or by sending an e-mail to info@kosicefashionweek.com  or by any other means of contact. The information is stored for as long as you have subscribed to the newsletter. After a cancellation, we store the data anonymously purely for statistical purposes.

In order to fulfil our contractual obligations and services, we may forward your data to companies affiliated with Unique Fashion Week s.r.o., Unique One s.r.o., its partner company E-F-A Associates s.r.o., selected organisers and organisers of national and international trade fairs, exhibitions, congresses and events (among other things to simplify registration and avoid multiple registrations), to exhibitors at our trade fairs and events and to selected partner companies who process personal data on our behalf and with whom we have concluded a job processing agreement.

By approving the scanning of your ticket, you expressly agree for the scanning party (e.g. the exhibitors) to have direct access to (structural) data you provided during registration, with the exception of bank account or credit card data. The legal basis is Article 6(1), Sentence 1, Litera a GDPR.

 

Any further disclosure of personal data to third parties will only take place within the framework of job data processing and in individual cases when you have given your prior consent or if we are obliged by law to disclosure such data to public authorities.

The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transferred to a Google server in the United States of America and stored there. However, if IP anonymisation is activated on this website, Google will reduce your IP address within Member States of the European Union or in other countries party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area beforehand.

What marketing tools do we use?

 

Facebook Custom Audiences

This website uses the 'Custom Audiences' remarketing function of Facebook. This allows users of the website to see interest-based advertisements ('Facebook ads') when visiting the social network Facebook or other websites that also use the process. We are interested in showing you advertisements that are of interest to you in order to make our website more interesting for you.

Due to the marketing tools used, your browser automatically establishes a direct connection to the Facebook server. We have no influence on the extent and further use of the data collected by Facebook through the use of this tool and therefore inform you according to our level of knowledge: By integrating Facebook Custom Audiences, Facebook receives the information you have called up the corresponding page of our website, or that you have clicked one of our ads. If you are registered with a Facebook service, Facebook can associate your visit with your account. Even if you are not registered with Facebook or have not logged in, it is possible that the provider may obtain and store your IP address and other identifying information.

 

Logged-in users can deactivate the 'Facebook Custom Audiences' function at https://www.facebook.com/settings/?tab=ads#_.

 

The legal basis for the processing of your data is Article 6(1), Sentence 1, Litera f GDPR. For more information about Facebook's data processing, please visit https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy.

 

Facebook pixels

We also use the 'visitor action pixel' from Facebook on our website. It allows us to track the actions of users who have seen or clicked on a Facebook ad. This enables us to measure the effectiveness of Facebook ads for statistical and market research purposes. The data collected in this way are anonymous to us, i.e. we do not see the personal data of individual users. However, these data are stored and processed by Facebook, about which we are informing you according to our level of knowledge. Facebook may link this information to your Facebook account and also use it for its own promotional purposes in accordance with Facebook's Data Policy (https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/). You can allow Facebook and its partners to serve ads on and off Facebook. A cookie may also be stored on your computer for these purposes.

For more details, please see Facebook's privacy policy: https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/.
