This means that we may collect personal data about you in the different scenarios mentioned in the table above. We centralize this data and then analyze it to evaluate and predict your personal preferences and/or interests.

Based on this analysis, we send or display communications and/or content tailored to your interests/needs.

You have the right in certain circumstances to object to the use of your data for “profiling” purposes. See “Your Rights and Choices” below.
